    Andrzej and his team took advantage of the quieter Himalayan autumn season for the attempt, and you can find out more about the world first descent here 🏔 www.redbull.com/int-en/andrzej-bargiel-mount-everest 🎿

    This is a legendary achievement, and the fact that the video STARTS with him having climbed Everest already without O2 is MIND-BLOWING in it's own right. Andrzej is a living legend.

      @bendalton5221 And less than 2% of all successful Everest summits are without oxygen, with fewer than 200 in history. Its still one of the hardest things a human body can go through, and him being above 8,000m for eighteen _hours_ is insane.

    • @catsaint9614
      @catsaint9614 5 months ago +8

      It should be quite stressful, at that altitude there's very little oxygen so it takes two or three gasps to get the same value we normally get with one

  • @BoostedSpeedDemon

    What makes this most incredible is the fact that he immediately skied down. Now, if you don't ski, you don't understand how much this destroys your legs. All of that, after climbing the tallest mountain in the world. This man is a testament to physical strength and resilience

    • @iterativegrowth

      (actual comments I’ve seen here from the “i could do this” crowd 😂 - same vibe as someone who looks at a Rothko and says “it’s just squares, I could do that”… which, a) you’re wrong & b) even if somehow you could… the fact remains that you didn’t!)

    • @gatacelta
      @gatacelta 5 months ago +290

      ​@strikeforcek9149 Well, at least part of the answer is yes, they're very acclimatized to the altitude. I once got reverse altitude sickness (had to look it up to learn its name/ basically the same symptoms as altitude sickness, but from a drastic decline vs incline) and I learned that sherpas get it frequently. So used to higher altitude levels of oxygen, one common remedy is to send them BACK up into their mountain home regions, and stagger their descent in stages to give their bodies time to adjust. I'm sure there are other logical factors but that is at least definitely one of them!

      It's probably more like "what did you do the last two months?" - Because it involves getting acclimatized, which takes weeks, walking in to base camp, preparing the camp chain for the ascent (remember this is out of season), waiting for the ideal weather, and whatnot...
      But you have a point, such extreme performance and taking such extreme risks is not possible without *lots* of confidence and nerves of steel.

He, Dawa and his team at the camps were the only people present at the mountain. That alone is honestly a really big achievement let alone no oxygen and skiing down the whole way on top of that.

      Without oxygen it's not really recommended to start spending time on top. Most people start the descent within 15 minutes anyways. Also, do we know if there were cuts, which could mean he actually spent more time up there?

      Funny enough, they actually don't. Red Bull is solely a marketing company that holds the rights to the brand and perhaps the recipe for the drink. The drink itself is manufactured by companies that, y'know, actually deal with drink production. Because of that RB doesn't make more profit the more it directly produces and sells, they make more profit when their brand is worth more, so they really only focus on the crazy stuff we know the logo for. They could well be (and are) licensing that for any other product on the market and act as a giant ad campaign for it.

      I once skied down from the crater summit of Mt Ruapehu in New Zealand, just shy of 9200 ft high, which I had to hike up to since the ski lifts end far below. I went up there with a friend who also was an American ski instructor who follows the ski seasons north and south of the Equator for work (south of the Equator, NZ's ski season is June through August, just like Chile and Argentina). Up there is extremely steep looking down, it looks like a sheer drop when you first look down, covered both in snow with decent cover and traction along with smoother icy parts, and also many exposed bare rocky sections which have to be avoided at all costs obviously, looking just like what Andrzej and the camera see looking down and from a distance to the sides of the cliffs. But that was still like skiing a beginner's bunny slope compared to this.

      You didn’t see the cgi snow fall they put towards the beginning 😢 it’s pretty sad actually .. plus all the fisheye camera angles to try and make it look more dangerous smh super corny 😢

    I wish they didn’t use a fish eye lens when they had the perspective of the skier. I love this video. I’ve done a lot of backcountry skiing brings me back.

    31:00 I guarantee you, a can of Red Bull is probably the LAST thing he wants to drink in that moment 😂

      @TexasFoldEm- I disagree. His body is probably starving for easily accessible sugars after the exhausting climb, lugging those massive lead balls up the mountain. and then supporting them suspended between his legs after they shrivel up from the cold. keeping them from dragging on the rocks below
      Probably hell on his thighs, glutes, calves
      All of those are going to want something to eat right away, followed by proper nutrition as soon as he can find a warm meal

    12:27 When he arrives at camp four after 18 hours in the Death Zone and just says "Need something eat," he must've been the most exhausted person on the planet in that moment. Insane feat by Andrezej and the entire team, especially the 12 Sherpas who made it possible.

      I heard the reply as 'I don't have anything' in Greek - Δεν έχω τίποτα. But maybe wrong, a bit hard to make out but the syllables and last word are fairly clear to me.

      Then he just magically shows up at camp 2. I know it got dark but why cut all the footage?

      @kraigbarrett7483 I think at that point he had to swap his camera for a headlamp.

    • @Anti-interesting
      @Anti-interesting 5 months ago +142

      @kraigbarrett7483 I think that he put the camera into his backpack to put a light on his helmet, so they didn't have any footage. That or it was too dark to look good.

      @DualityofMan100 yeah. That moment he drops the stick and is reaching in with the other was terrifying. And then he had 2 more in literally the next 63 seconds alone going down that collapsed route was just the worst. And then he had like 3 more and a cliff 20 seconds after that. The weight of his balls must've kept him weighed down enough to stop in time

      I still dont understand why they re not building a gondola to the top. This would be one of the most profitable gondola ever made ! At 100 000$ a ticket there would still be thousands of people who would pay.
