Climber Broke Both Legs at 24,000 Feet—Then Did the Unthinkable

Описание: At 24,000 feet, the human body is already dying. But for legendary climber Doug Scott, the death zone was just the beginning. After shattering both legs in a catastrophic fall near the summit of The Ogre (Baintha Brakk), Scott faced an impossible choice: freeze to death waiting for a rescue that would never come, or do the unthinkable.

This is the harrowing true story of the 1977 Ogre Disaster—a 5-mile crawl through a blizzard on broken bones that remains one of the greatest survival feats in mountaineering history. Join Everest Mystery as we uncover how Doug Scott and Chris Bonington survived the impossible.
