Thank you for this interesting video about Cerro Torre and the tasteful tribute to a famous climber. It was also a pleasure to listen to the history of climbing this signature rock.
A grim but courageous climbers story, well illustrated and fairly executed! Back in 1971 after a few years of training in S. Arizona our party of 6 spent six weeks in the Wyoming Wind River Wilderness tackling Cirque of the Towers and finishing our adventures atop Gannett Peak.....the trip of a lifetime!! CLIMB ON but know your risks!
With all respect for the achievement, courage and determent of these high altitude climbers but I can imagine that they lean heavily on the resources of the rescue people in the region they climb when things go wrong. Do these climbers always must ask permission from the authorities where they climb (a permit) and insure themselves in case of rescue missions. How does this work..anybody?
Have had a day to think on it. Because I try not to be too harsh on climbers, it's their passion. OK.. I was going along grandly until I saw the photo of Korra and his kid and wife and .. Well, you did not mention if they did this climb with sponsorship, ie a bit of money on the line, which is kind of the only excuse to climb these harsh climbs with still-young children. Wait till the kid turns 18, or whatever is the legal age to vote and drink in their country! It just really sucks the lack of positive judgement if Korra did not have sponsorship, if they were just doing it for the sport of it. Sigh.. It's too much. I fell out of it after seeing the photo. Just goes to show, it's pretty easy to have a kid, it's another to be a parent and put oneself aside a bit. That climb was uncalled for, too remote, too hard, too many things, without a huge sponsor writing a huge check. Anyway! Thanks, as usual.

I wouldn’t do this sport simply because eventually you’ll probably become a “tragedy “ story 😢
Subtitles would help. Can't understand what's being said.

I think there is a lesson to be learned here…keep the inreach on your person at all times.

one thing is for sure he didn't do it for the money. It was his lifetime dream
Can't even understand what your saying
Looks more like rock climbing than mountain climbing.
Mountain 1 climber 0 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
