K2. At 28251 feet or 8611 meters K2 is the second highest mountain on Earth. But if you ask anyone who knows anything about mountains, K2 is the true king of the 8000m peaks. The little bit that it lacks in height is more than made up for in every other respect that makes a mountain difficult and dangerous. The slopes are steeper, the weather is worse, and the climbing is more technical. It’s for this reason that despite having less than a tenth of the ascents of Everest, K2 has more than a third of the deaths. So, in this video, we’re going to look at why K2 is considered one of the most difficult and dangerous mountains on Earth and the impossible first attempts to conquer it.

Is The Cellar copying you?
I've noticed they're doing Horrible Fates like you with that same "music."
A lot of what they're doing reminds me of your channel.
I hope they're not stealing your work. 🫣
Last I checked they didn’t have Korean :(
you should make a K2 part 2 video
Appreciate the names and records at the end. Yes, it's VERY hard for me to follow stories with 3+ names, but I really appreciate the ending.
Not if you put it as the pinned comment while it's already in the description.
I remember reading a comparison between Everest and K2 that said Everest doesn't care if you die, but K2 actively tries to kill its climbers
I like that 👍
Perfect
Life long climber and mountain climber here ( hardest one by far I’ve bagged is Denali), you couldn’t pay me to try K2 with the stories I’ve heard about this monster.
@@seanheany444what was Denali like?
@@seanheany444 I would add Annapurna and Nanga Parbat to that list

How are you
@@AnnoyedKomodoDragon-oq7gr Happily married to my Costa Rican wife who is pictured in the pfp. Thanks for asking.
Hello, I've read 2 of Ed's books, the previous 1 focussed on Annapurna. My local library has put out my request for his K2 book, but no luck so far! Veisturs is an excellent writer :) Best, J
Thanks for the info

The fact that those sherpas climbed 7k vert in a single day, at extreme altitude, with all that old and heavy gear is incredible.
And all too often, sadly underrated. They too are risking their lives up on those mountains, but unlike the people who pay them, don't get famous for it.
I am from a punjabi village in Pakistan,on a clear day you can see k2 and himalayas,and my village is 200 miles away
I wonder why they are able to do it but the average person couldn't
cause they re literaly born there and already aclimatised ? also why tf would the average person be able to do that ? not everyone is a trained hiker@@Queenmebonnie
@VladRadu-tq1pg what do you have a attitude about? I was asking a legitimate question.by average person I was referring to the people who pay them to carry their things up the mountain.you all loud and wrong.your weird
Connecting all the camps with a red line, then having it disappear into a black line when the supplies were stripped, was a simple yet incredibly efficient piece of visual storytelling. Just seeing that black line snake down the mountain really built up a sense of dread.
Can't say any better
Agreed. Haunting and very effective
The fact that it's usually body PARTS and not intact corpses found on the mountain is both telling and terrifying.
lol, I don't know why you just triggered this thought ...but whenever I see those idiots at the X-Games (or whatever) trying...and failing to flip a snowmachine, instead landing underneath it, I think...."That's what you deserve, idiot." Now I'm all for taking foolish risks and have myself been caught in a t-shirt at a mountain peak when a snowstorm came on us.... #IDIOT but trying to backflip a snow machine....I dunno.
Had to share; sorry
@@TheSnoeedog Random but indeed funny. XD
✌@@classicmicroscopy9398
Oof. That's wild!!😅😅
Thats prop bc the force they hit rocks while falling down rips them in pieces.
Thank you so much for naming the Sherpas who supported the expedition and lost their lives. The local indigenous guides almost always overlooked, despite the fact that they're the primary reason any expedition succeeds.
i wish there were more stories from Sherpas. i've not heard stories from their perspective, despite the fact they've been climbing these mountains for eons.
eta: there are a few documentaries here on RUclips about Sherpas for anyone else interested.
@@lunakat__"eta?"
“eta” in this case means “edited to add”, I think, instead of “estimated time of arrival”.
RIP my boi Phinsoo
Thanks, hero. No one has every heard of a Sherpa before. Never mind that every video talks about them and every comment section is filled with people saying "remember the Sherpas!" as if they're the first and only person saying it
The people at base camp constantly not delivering goods up the mountain is weirdly frustrating.
oddly debilitating and somewhat treasonous?
the most dangerous thing about K2 is that its located in Pakistan
Like that was their whole job and they just didn't do it because someone wasn't constantly telling them to? Lethally lazy.
@@thestruggler3338big big big words
@@thestruggler3338extravagant word choice
“Accidentally dropped both sets of crampons.” Right. Dude realized they were nuts for trying to summit in the dark and threw that shit over the side of the mountain so they couldn’t try again.
My thought is: I'm sure it was actually the one who dropped them. We probably heard the stories as told/written by the Americans. And it's very convenient to blame the sheep's, since they don't have the ability to set the record straight.
@@MichiruEll Yup, I am strangely sure rich, entitle a-hole would dump all his mistakes on everyone else, especially these of low status who can't talk back...
@@MichiruEll coping with the fact that the sherpas lead to all of the deaths lol.
It actually makes no sense to suggest that the crampons were tossed away
They were already descending and agreed not to ascend in the dark. If it was true that they were purposely tossed then why did they attempt again the following day without the necessary equipment. No way the American would have done it alone if the Sherpa said no
If you come into the Himalayan region and talk to a sherpas, you will find many stories where a sherpa had saved someone's life by either making some story up or saying this accident has happened.
The death toll is even crazier considering everyone with pockets deep enough can and will be dragged up Mt. Everest but only really experienced climbers to start with even try to get up K2.
I was climbing a few 6000m peaks in Nepal and met a woman who climbed both Everest and K2 (she's now also ascended Kangchenjunga as well). She said K2 was one of the easiest peaks she's climbed...sounds like it's just chance of serac failures as opposed to technicalities
@@henrychanner4032 perhaps the weather was kind to her.
@@henrychanner4032
She was lying
@@henrychanner4032 What does serac mean?
@@henrychanner4032maybe she climbed K-2 under rainbows and sunshines. That's quite rare but if the climate and weather do you a favour on K-2, you're a lucky one.......
The Duke of Abruzzi and his team were the smartest men in this video. They left and climbed a safer mountain.
No, the smartest men were the 1937 team, because they had the best combination of motivation and survival instinct.
You have to admit, though, that it's kind of funny that since they abandoned their attempt, they just deemed it unclimbable. Very humble of them to assume that if they couldn't do it, then it must not be possible at all.
@@Herpaderp10 The Duke reportedly have said: it will be an aviator, not a climber standing on a shiny summit of K2
It was 1910 and aviation was barely a thing back then. And to this day no aircraft(helicopter) can hover at such an altitude.
George Bell, after a 1953 expedition to K2, famously said "K2 is a savage mountain that tries to kill you," causing it to still be known to this day as the Savage Mountain. Incredible that these men came so close to the summit and might have made it but for a poor route choice at the Bottleneck Serac.
Mountain: Just exists
Humans: It tries to kill me 😭
I always knew it as k2 never heard of it as savage mountain
I think it was more so the Sherpas that fucked them over and took all their crap from each camp
Oh yes... we all know that mountains move and go looking for people to kill 😂
@@shaman5433❤
I love that you add the visuals to your stories of where the camps are/where major events occur. It helps so much with following the story and also having a better appreciation for what these folks must have gone through!

Pakistani power💪
@@tipus737 Sherpas are not pakistanis. I haven't heard a single pakistani to achieve anything significant in history, besides providing the world with a constant stream of terrorists.
K2 has always intruiged me more than Mt. Everest, ironically for all the reasons you listed: It's more dangerous, it's steeper, it's more remote, it's way more challenging.
...and probably the fact that fewer people have climbed it - Everest is a tourist attraction by this point. There's no mystery to it any longer.
For K2 however, there is a certain allure to it and even though I would never attempt to climb K2, its presence, the sheer massiveness and steepness of its silhouette - it's awe-inspiring and also instills a certain amount of fear and respect into you by just looking at it.
I climb K2 often. Every time I get on my snowboard, I summit it. It's the graphic on my Snowboard ❤
@@olitapp5361dont they also make BMX bikes?
Yeah, I've recently been getting into mountain-climbing, but don't think I'll ever do Everest; partly for the cost, and then that it'll have to be with a large group of other people, where much of the appeal will be lost.
@@PoochieCollinsthere’s almost no one climbing Everest outside of the March-may window, though it’s for very good reason

Is he still on the mountain or brought back ?
Very high risk attempting K2.
@@MMM.lwhat do you mean brought back?
Heheh so here I am, 84 years later in my house at the complete opposite side of the world, absolutely FUMING that the lower camps teams were slacking and not moving supplies. It was literally their job, they were being paid for it. and you're telling me that a guy that was all the way up in Camp 7 had to come down to see what the fk was happening? It's just baffling to me that they preferred to not do the effort of supplying them in case the attempts were still going and just chill on the lower camps haha, it's actually kinda funny how mad this made me for an event that happened 84 years ago
Same haha my heart is pounding in frustration as the story winds down

To think that they would have reached 8400m and all of them returned down safely if the one guy had just bothered going the last 200 meters over to camp 8 in case someone there was asleep or just couldn't hear him scream.
Why are you assuming they were slacking off? From what was in the video, it seemed like those at the base genuinely thought the climbers hadn't gotten that far yet because they didn't see movement that high. It wouldn't make sense for them to set up camps near the summit of the mountain if the climbers were nowhere near that point. Considering the year and the technology at the time (no handheld radios, for instance), plus the difficulty bridging the language divide, there's no reason to believe the main problem was laziness.
@@lrp71 they were slacking off. Not only the top camps weren't stacked which wouldn't have been that bad. As long as I remember, only up to camp 4 at best was gettinv the resources needed AT BEST, which is nowhere near the summit. If that isn't laziness, Idk what is.
The thought of sleeping in a tent that is partly over the edge of a deadly drop is scary. I definitely wouldn’t be able to sleep that way.
You should see big wall climbing! They use portable ledges because the faces are often completely vertical with not even a ledge to hang a tent off haha
@@troyvirgona8738 They sleep that way? Dang. Definitely not for me.
@@valiantwarrior4517 yeah, it's pretty wild haha. In the documentary Meru (Himalayan + big wall climbing), the teams portal ledge broke while they were in it, wasn't a catastrophic failure, but that scene was terrifying, especially after they jury rigged it back together with tape...
@@troyvirgona8738 😳
I get more than enough adrenaline and anxiety when the phone rings.
I’m not scared of heights or anything. But having to stop and rig up a shelf to sleep on…that’s too much for me. Kind of the same thing with people squeezing through tiny cave tunnels where they have to suck in their chest to fit.
All those people impress the heck out of me. I guess it’s good I can just watch from the not dangling, non squeezing safety of my apartment. I’m perfectly happy just flipping rocks to look for spiders or wading in a stream to watch the fish. 😅
If you’d been climbing at >7000 feet you’d probably be surprised how easily you’d be able to sleep tbh
I have learned so much avout mountaineering, cave diving and general exploring with your videos. You are an excellent story teller and it has been awesome watching your channel grow so fast! You deserve it! Here's to a Million!
The cave diving is so interesting because it’s so complex. Wish we had more of those
👍👍❤️
And the next, lattice climbing, urban climbing and freesolo
Hopefully learned enough to not ever do it, lol. Cave diving and mountain climbing should both be renamed to “Darwin’s podium”.
@@Shiesteywow you watch a couple RUclips videos on hand selected, worst-case-scenario stories. Then just completely dismiss an entire genre of outdoor activities? And forever reject the opportunity to reconnect with the natural world we evolved from.
That's a sad way of living :(( you'll be a bitter elderly person if you don't live your life whilst you can.
Atleast try a bit of hiking :/
props to the guy who managed to solo descend down from camp 8 to camp 1 with no supplies
he wasn't alone...
It was him and a Sherpa
FRITZ WIESSNER IS HIS NAME
@@colonelcider8292Sherpa has a name bro 😒 idk what it is tho
@@zacharyl.5354 Video didn't name him so I didn't either
Could have googled it but didn't care enough assuming the explorers write down the Sherpa's names
@@colonelcider8292the Sherpa had no more experience then him, remeber this isn’t Everest in 2024. It’s K2 in the 1930s, Sherpa is not a synonym for expert mountain climber. They are an ethnic group located at high altitudes which gives them a genetic advantage when it comes to physical exertion at altitude. But before westerners showed up sherpas had no history of actually summiting high peaks.
Imagine how pissed the team lead was when he had to climb all the way back down to camp 2 then back up because people couldn't do their job
I agree that referring to them all by name during the story can confuse things, and naming them all at the very end feels like an appropriate way to identify, respect, and humanize them. Great compromise :)
I feel the most sorry for the 3 sherpas who came to rescue the American, only to be turned away, only to try again and never be able to return themselves. They could have easily stayed at base camp and preserved their lives.
The American was clearly delirious if he was unwilling to come down with the help of three men, especially in his state. Common sense would tell you that your situation isn't going to get better without food, water, or heat, but given his condition described in the video, it sounds like his brain wasn't working well either. Being that high up means there is little oxygen for your brain to use.
@@johnnyvivic8730I have visited that region not this remote but it was I think 14000 feet up and its more then that I got there by old Toyota 4×4 there was a lake there covered by small mounts and glaciers up that height so I tried to climb one mount there just after each 10 meter of climb I had to stop so much stamina and shortness of breath
@@johnnyvivic8730 the moment they left the American there i knew he was gone. He was already in extreme conditions and chose to stay on K-2. Most likely his brain wasn't sane enough and was Delirious at that moment. Sad.........
Really enjoyed this week's podcast. You're so much more thorough and compassionate than most people.
what's the name of the podcast? The link in the description isn't working for me.
It's just his online persona, he's actually the reason they find body parts on K2 and not whole corpses.
@@KB-313 It's Scary Interesting Podcast. It's just as good as the RUclips channel.
I bet he is cute irl.
there's a pooood??
this gives the quote "the number one is always talked about, but silence covers the number 2." a whole lot of meaning
It's nice to know who the Sherpas were, thank you. They usually end up being a footnote somewhere--if lucky.

7000 ft in one day on a massive mountain is as badass as it gets. I’ve done about as much on a trail and it kicked my ass.
You’ve done it! Congrats brother I know this was a tedious one for you and props to tackling it with precision and a tight script. I really hope the response is both affirming and conducive to you taking more of the mountaineering tragedies. They deserve the justice this channel brings to their stories.
Thanks! I thought you might like this one. I've got another one coming soon!
@@ScaryInteresting this one seemed like a big step up in production. I like your previous videos but this one especially was thourough, professional and properly polished. half an hour absolutely flew by, a commendable improvement in quality. love it.
Y you speaking so fast@@ScaryInteresting
Thank you for including all the names of the Sherpas on the expeditions! They seem to be forgotten in the course of these stories so often.
Death to ascent ratio seems a sensible way to estimate how dangerous a mountain is. I feel that if more people attempted Annapurna 1, the danger ratio would climb even higher further establishing it as the most dangerous high altitude mountain to climb.
Every year Everest has a ton of beginners due to its fame. Annapurna is strictly done by pros.
@@nybotheveg theres also a system in place to get those beginners up and down so it evens out
Why would they completely strip the other camps? They’ve already gone to the effort to take the stuff up there?!!!!
They probably figured the people who paid for it are dead so "f*ck it. Free stuff"
Recommend the book “Last Man on the Mountain” and other books written about the 1939 disaster on K2. There was a lot of animosity between the American members of the expedition and Fritz Weissner, the German born legendary expedition lead. Some may have wanted to believe he was dead. Also, Fritz was a purist and refused to bring a radio up, so the team down below had no idea what was going on up top for many days. Fritz was also leading the American playboy Dudley Wolfe up, who was rich but fat, and most assumed he would die up there (he did). Plus there was all sorts of miscommunication. There are some other videos on RUclips that cover it with interviews like “Ghosts of K2”.
@@davidperdue1325the story would make a good film
@@davidperdue1325PURIST PURIST like the fuck?! Safety is a big problem that should be their priority
Dude, can I just say how much your video production, writing, research, media, and narration has improved in the past year? Just amazing! Keep up the great work! This one is such an enjoyable video!!!
The way you switched out the music to the more sinister one when you began discussing the disaster story gave me chills, well done!
16:22 “sorry fam my bad, I forgot you guys needed that stuff. Sense ur here already, can u you just run it up? Thx”
I just want to say, you have the best narration voice on RUclips. The narration, the photos, the visuals, the tone you use doesn't change, your sources, your knowledge of mountains and caves, the storytelling, and most importantly, the respect you show to all the people in every video and not making any assumptions about their deaths or whose faults it were. And now that you added the element of naming those who were involved, including the Sherpa's, that is just going to make your videos even more incredible. Keep up the good work.
Annapurna is far difficult to climb because the only few known climb routes all must go through an insane sheer vertical rock face filled with ice cornices and falling rocks. There's a reason people don't climb it - most people turn back.
Lack of an established route, the sheet rock face and the fact it is the northern most of the 8k’s which makes it colder. The weather there is very volatile
@@yankees29look at a map- K2 is far more northern in Pakistan, but the weather isn’t as gnarly I guess.
And what about K2's east face? 😁
K2 : I literally just exist 🥺
Love the content man. Been here since the beginning. You deserve all the channel growth you've been receiving!
Thanks for sticking around!
👍👍❤️
Seriously, the channel growth has been incredible
Your videos remind me of the long, cinematically shot documentaries you come across scrolling between TV channels... and then find yourself completely immersed in as the hours pass in the blink of an eye!
The level of storytelling in these videos is what keeps me hooked. You have a real talent for that. Take it easy and take care.
Actually, on a fatality to summit attempts ratio, Annapurna I is the most dangerous of the 8000 m peaks. Annapurna I, 26.69%; Nanga Parbat, 20.96%; K-2, 19.05%. Source: Kuluarpohod. Fun Fact: more people have gone into space than have gone to the summit of Annapurna I.
It’s crazy that they took all the camps and bases down just assuming that the climbers were dead after communicating badly with Sherpas.
Sean I would love it if you could do a further video on K2 2023 climbs, including the death of porter Muhammad Hassan whom had no climbing training and shouldn’t have been at that altitude anyway and the culture of climbing over dying climbers and Sherpas with the intent to summit. Also the amazing climbs by Harila and Tenjen on that day. I would love you to do a video on it as you always stay level headed and factual and non biased xxx
the death to successful ascent percentages near the beginning seem the most accurate to how dangerous a mountain is, picture it this way- if you climb k2 today, you have a 26% chance of dying
when you put it in percentage chances that youll flat out be featured in the obituary, its much more clear and terrifying in my opinion
That percentage doesn't exactly mean that you have a 26% chance of dying if you ATTEMPT K2, it just means that for every 4 SUCCESSFUL SUMMITS there is one death. The number of people who successfully summit is only a percentage of those who attempt, I don't have the exact numbers. So the odds of dying on a given attempt are less than the 26% given here.
Dropping climbing partners crampons/assuming demise of entire camp- then stripping camps of all supplies has got to be some of the most controversial actions taken in an expedition.
You’ve built up this channel SO fast. I subscribed near the beginning and at first I thought he’s kind of leaning on “3 places you can’t go and people who went there anyways” but soon the unique, informative, well told, well produced were in their own class and it’s no wonder you’ve done so well. Great voice for narrating also. Where as the other channel I referenced has kind of sold out. I’d listen to a Scary Interesting video first. PS- great channel name. That’s why I subscribed right away. I thought that’s exactly what I want to hear something scary, yet INTERESTING.
Ok karen
The biggest thing that annoys me and turns me away from him is how he will add details that he totaly fabricates. Whether he does it for the "story telling" or to lengthen the videos idk and really idc. I listen for the factual information so when someone adds info they made up their entire video loses credibility.
@@jonyemmlike what
How has fascinating horror sold out?? Jk, you're obviously referring to ballen, but initially I always saw this as a (superior) FH dupe
@@jonyemmreferring to ballen? He constantly adds and distorts stuff. It's a shame
Great video! And giving credit by naming all of the explorers and Sherpas at the end, was golden.
I really like that you named the Sherpas- these expeditions would be IMPOSIBLE without them. They're just as important and accomplished as the mountanieers. Great work!
I had a mountain climbing phase a while back (books and documentaries only of course) and K2 was my favorite mountain to read about. It’s such a beast, with that horrifying serac and intimidating reputation. I love learning about the Savage Mountain, thank you for this video
Annapurna is another one I'm fascinated with.
K2 also has the extremely volatile hazard of the Bottleneck and the traverse above it. It is easiest and quickest way to and from the summit, but is so dangerous.
K2 is almost a perfect pyramid at the peak of
Good on you for giving the Sherpa’s equal recognition, too often history forgets those guys, and they climb way more and no it carry some posh guys luggage!
I feel like I have heard this with all the names and it was very disorienting, I really appreciate that you still named them all as well. Another awesome video, thank you!
No one man can claim to reach the summit of any mountain if he relied on other men to pack his supplies up the mountain for him.
The Sherpas need the accolades and an increase in pay.
@@mjef3695 If the Sherpas want fame, they can always organize an own expedition and pay fellow sherpas with their own money. No one knows the mechanic of a racing car that wins the race, why should only the helpers in climbing be suddenly in the spotlight?
No he can claim to have reached the summit
He can't claim that he did it alone
If everyone else stopped just before reaching the summit then despite being a huge factor in making history, they cannot claim to have reached it.
Also its not just the people resupplying, what about everyone else before him?
They did a great service in providing information and camp locations
So Neil Armstrong can’t claim to have reached the moon because he didn’t build the rocket ship? Cmon man. Their butt got to the top then they climbed it as did everyone else who looked down from the summit
I love this channel so much. While I have no interest in becoming a mountaineer, I read all that I can about it, interested in the mindset of those willing to risk their lives in ascending such peaks. Anyway, this is one of my favorite channels, so well produced and narrated. Good on ya, SI!! I'm rather picky about my channel choices (I'm a rather effete snob like that), and this channel never fails to deliver. Yay!
👍👍❤️
Thank you for this compelling video, on K2, and the expeditions, that ensued, on this mountain.💙
Big fan of the "addendum" section at the end - gives the people interested in some of the finer details of the research what they want while keeping the "narrative" clean and concise!
Yay I love watching your mountaineering videos. The diving and caving videos are great, but mountaineering has always fascinated me.
Same here!
A book I read dedicated to K2 said that the distance between Everest to K2 is like the distance between South Carolina and New York.
Utterly insane.
When I was 10 (I'm 37 now) my older brother got into mountain climbing and wouldn't shut up about it, then he rented a movie called K2 and I watched it with him and since then that mountain lives rent free in my mind. To even try that climb you must be an acomplished athlete, but to think of those people trying to climb K2 with little more than thick coats and willpower, damn...
Absolutely mind blowing. The balls those guys had…
@@yankees29 I think it’s more like stupidity
What a story to tell, frostbitten, down the pub!
"I risked losing everything, all my family, or - at least - _them losing me..._ I had an itch I needed to scratch and didn't really love my 'loved ones' that much anyway!!!"
I look forward to your stories every Sunday at 11am. It'd be amazing to see another video a week. Thanks for all the time and research you put into these high quality videos!
I couldn't imagine why you'd put yourself through that hell
Amazing narration, explanations, and music. It's not loud enough to be distracting and is hauntingly beautiful. Everything about this video is top notch.
A Babbel sponsorship for a story where a language barrier could have been one of the possible factors contributing to the first deaths on K2
Whether intentional or not it's still clever lol
Those sherpas doomed that one american. Only making assumptions instead of at least climbing to the camps above to see if there are still people. That one sherpa who told the others about the fictional avalanche probably just wanted to go home and therefore probably made that story up. Nobody knows for sure except that one nameless guy, but the lack of determination disgusts me. Ascending 7k feet in that short time is an exceptional feat, but the sherpas should have done their job of resupplying the camps in the first place, so praising them feels wrong to me. They were the ones responsible for the failure of that expedition.
And people act like sherpas can never do wrong and it’s always the white man who screws everything up
I have a 3d printer designed by a group of engineers and designers who've named all of their creations around mountaineering things. Their 3d printers are named Masherbrum K1, Chhogori-K2, and Gasherbrum-K3. They're difficult to build, but are some of the highest performance enthusiast DIY machines out there. I'm guessing the algorithm served me this video because of my interest in 3d printers named after mountains!
Do you print guns?
Try printing a miniature K-2. Will be fun ❤........
I am always in awe over the courage (sometimes intermingled with ignorance) over past climbers. Their gear, by today’s standards, was primitive, and they still carried on. People toad would give a strong “Hell No” if they had to use that type of gear today. 😰
that's why women live longer.
I find it kind of eerie that at 10:08 you can see a face on the left side of the mountain looking into the sky.
I saw it😮👍🏻
I love K2 and I'm personally a little glad it's too dangerous for most people to take a shot at. I hope it never, ever becomes like Everest. I really think the mountaineering tourism industry (*not moutain-climbing itself, necessarily) is a total desecration of nature.
This is why you always pack a second set of the very important things you need. Obviously you wanna do that within reason due to weight issues, but some things you should always have extra of: like krampons.
A 1000 feet in the mountains is generally considered not to be a lot. It only sounds a lot in imperial units. Now a 1000 meters is a whole different ballgame.
There are many documentaries on K2 and few on Annapurna. But if you compare the content and tone, I've always had the impression that K2 was more "dangerous" and Annapurna was, as you argue, simply in an early stage of exploration where routes are less established.
Pretty sure the erratic weather and avalanches are what make Annapurna more dangerous. It the northern most of the 8000m.
I appreciate the credits and the simplification. I tend to listen to these passively while doing other things and it saves me a lot of confusion.
Your mountaineering videos get better and better with each upload, thanks for the amazing content you put out for us
Greater number of ascents/ descents isn't all positive in terms of safety. The factor that is probably adding the most danger to climbing Mt. Everest is how crowded it is getting. Also, don't count on taming Annapurna unless you are able to control the climate and the weather. Annapurna is probably not as technical as K2, but the shifts in climate conditions and constant ice and rock falls can kill anyone no matter how skilled.

Listen, given the sherpas extensive experience with all types of mountaineering AND the Himalayan Range specifically, i honestly think the sherpa team that went to check made the informed call. This was an impossible climb especially given the skill of the climbers, and its quite likely that the sherpa's knew the advance team's survival was deeply unlikely. And given EVERY ascent is deeply dangerous, stripping the camps as they descend means less opportunities for death. I firmly believe the sherpas made the right call, especially given zero contact with the advance team for such an extended period. That 4 of them died in a futile effort to save a dead man is heartbreaking
I was watching a PBS special on Mt. Everest when they mentioned that those who died on the mountain, stayed on the mountain. All those "guided tour" members, shuffling past bodies . . . that was an image that stayed with me. Never, never, never. Besides, what rational person wants to fight their way up to a death zone, where life can't exist?
Sherpas are incredible. They do all the work that rarely gets much credit
They do get the payment tho
Great video, as always! I really enjoy how you talk about scary/dangerous things from real life; those types of things always spook me more than anything supernatural. Hope your channel continues to grow!
He's so good at telling stories this guy, the atmosphere is great but he needs to make more of scary interesting videos, much much more because I've run out haha
Went to basecamp when I was young. Trust me that felt like conquering the mountain let alone climbing it. It’s 400 miles north of nepals Himalayas thus the Karakorams are just an entity to themselves. On Everest you find bodies. In karakorams you find ground down chiseled bones only. Fabulous video. Thank you for making it. K2 sadly due to greed of Pakistani government is becoming the new Everest. More and more will die as this is no Everest. It’s a real graveyard especially for novice climbers. No wonder it was the last to be climbed in winter.
@Scary Interesting Thank you for the way you format your videos. I like how you added the addendum at the end. That was a brilliant way to keep the story cohesive, while honoring those involved. Well done!
Yes, MORE MOUNTAIN CONTENT!!! Honestly just everything haha love the cave diving too
Bruh your mountain expedition videos are 100% your best! What made me fall in love with the channel and still my favourite after all this time
Thank you for such an amazing and interesting video. One thing I want to add for viewers is that K2 has a local name, and the people of that area have given it the name ''Chogo Ri'' which means Big Mountain'' in the native Balti language.
Impressive the amount of detail you have included and you clearly spent a lot of time researching this video. By youtube standards your content is A++
why am i suddenly binge watching mountaineering disaster videos
Happens to the best of us. ^^
The “Mt. Everest ain’t got sh*t on me” was a nice touch😂
@ScaryInteresting I hope you're not too heavily criticized for telling these stories without names.
It helps me a lot to be able to focus my limited working memory on the events, and hearing the participants names AFTER finding out what these people went through MAKES the names memorable for me. I wish it was normal to do introductions at the end of conversations instead of the at the beginning.
If you used a bunch of names while telling it through the first time, I would lose track much more, and would probably end up forgetting the events as well as the names. I'm SURE I've seen videos of early K2 climbing attempts, but this story sounded completely new. I think I will remember better after watching this one.
I'm glad you do things this way, and I'm extra glad you decided to add these addenda to your stories. Thank you!
My Acrophobia & Claustrophobia have been heightened from this channel but i highly enjoy your videos and you narrate everything so well ✨✨
I literally just spent the past three days rewatching the mountain disasters wishing he would do one on k2 and now here we are. Football and a mountain disaster story on the same day? Yea sounds pretty nice to me
I think it's actually harder to follow along when you leave out the names, at least of the main group. One thing you left out is that Fritz was german, and at the time there was tension between Germany and America, and some historians believe this added to the group's issues. There had been a lot of disagreement and animosity going up the mountain as Fritz was said to be a bit of a hardass. This is also theorized to have influenced the decision to go back down and strip the camps along the way. There's a really good documentary on the two few ascents here on RUclips that has first hand accounts of the whole fiascos.
Totally agree, especially in this case. The disaster was as much to do with clashes in personalities and misunderstandings as it was about technical climbing difficulties.
Holy fuck the base camp team basically murdered that poor man through their refusal to just DO THEIR JOBS.
The expedition leader, Fritz Weissner, actually accused them of murder. But his actions as leader also caused the team to hate him. They may have wanted him to die.
its nice to hear these stories knowing, that my body by default stops me from doing anything like this. lung defect, cant handle to thick or thin air. i black out and would suffocate faster than a normal human by a long shot.
Wow I’m in the absolute depths of a mountain hyperfixation rn and scary interesting comes out w a 30 min K2 video!!? Awesome!!

Sundays are great days for the strange dark n mysterious as well. Idk if you've ever heard of Mrballen. He is 1 of the greatest most attention captivating youtuber I've every had the pleasure of listening too. I truely love 2pm on Sundays n Sundays in general. If you've never heard of Mrballen u are about to subscribe to another channel with similar type content as scary interesting i wish the 2 channels would put something out together for the edge of your seat tag team crime thriller. Id even go as far as saying the content from dream collaboration video would leave the listen permanently traumatized n in general an all around mess of a human being compared to the individual that started watching the video. So let me try n simplify 2 great story tellers meet n they have a story baby as a result of said meeting n your lucky enough n blessed to meet this story telling love child vid that's is so unbelievably captivating you get lost in the story n can no longer tell the difference between youtube n real life that the story causes you to go insane from collaboration story interest that your loved ones see a change in you from the impact the story they told your loved ones have you baker acted n the Dr's. Feel that u being committed is the correct path for your life from here on out. All from being ballinterested one Sunday. Now this is a life I want to live if all of my dreams just happened to become true. But seriously u should check out mrballens channel if u haven't n when u do you'll have to fight the urge to thank me but no need for gratitude I feel it's my duty as a fellow youtube watcher to inform those around me in this community. Have a gr8t day. Maybe we will cross comments again in the future maybe we won't but that's life in such a diverse platform as youtube. 😢
I feel like sherpas are the most abused people on earth (that's probably a bit too strong, but damn). They are basically treated as servants and expected to routinely risk their necks because of what often amounts to sheer arrogance and/or stupidity of random climbers. And to make things worse, they probably have limited opportunities to make ends meet, so they have to take these kinds of jobs
Nobody forces them to sherpa so to refer to them as "the most abused people on earth" is laughably inaccurate
Prematurely stripping the camps is definitely what killed them imo. Why they wouldn't wait longer just in case is beyond me,
The ascend with the first deaths seems like it was sabotaged by the sherpas…
I don't care what you say, I think that anyone that is driven with the need to 'conquered ' anything is beyond me. The only thing I see are people desperately in need of self validation. Even worse is when they group together and make it seem like it is something really important to do. For me it adds even more to the idea of all is meaningless. The mountain is there, doing its own thing, which is simply existing as a mountain. The mountain is not trying to intimidate them, rule them etc, it is simply being there being a mountain. And they must conquer it. Why? The amount is resources, time, effort, etc. that is wasted on something so insignificant is amazing. At a time when kings went to war idiots climbed mountains.
I really don't think the mountain minds.
Exactly, so why the need to 'conquer' it? When you say the mountain don't mind, I am assuming you mean also it don't mind the loved ones left behind? So you sacrifice all for something that don't mind? Not too sure you thought this through. @@frequentuser360
War is far more worse because it is inmoral and evil. Also, kings send others to war to died for them, yet they get all the wealth and glory.
@@frequentuser360 I agree, so why leave your kids without a father or mother to 'conquer it? The loved ones, the living do mind. They want to have a future with the stupid father.....
