    But really, when they showed that mountain peak, the thought of trying to ski from up there looked to be the equivalent of putting on ski's and then jumping off a cliff!

    Tetons are beautiful! Dude I was watching K2 Siren of the Himalayas, and an Italian who was skiing the Cesen route tumbled, taking a huge fall, and regrettably lost his life.... is skiing even allowed on a mountain like K2?!!! Nasty stuff!

      Recent k2 has been successfully skied down by a polish climber

    Why no helmets? Jimmy literally witnessed his partner Renan take a bad wipe out and crack his skull open because he wasn't wearing a helmet. I mean it just seems like a common sense thing.

    • @BrianHardoin
      @BrianHardoin 7 лет назад +13

      As they said, this is wipe out and fall off a cliff territory. If a fall means near-certain death anyway, why carry the weight?

      PolarizedNinja lol a helmet? Seriously? That's like bashing the astronauts for not wearing seat belts in the challenger explosion

      Helmets were used when applicable, were you not watching?

    I’m all about adventure, but risking your life like this is out of my league. This is stunning, but it is also ridiculous.

    God put those mountains there for people who like to ski! There is also a river in that same vally that God said was for river boating....but never for fishing. He also said not to go river boating until first mastering the down hill ski adventure. Also he asked that no one river boat for atleast 45 minutes after eating so you don't get cramps. God loves people who follow his directions so that he don't have to roast you in a flaming firey burning Hell! God Bless you : )
