The Inside Story Of Mount Everest's Deadliest Climbing Season | A Deadly Ascent | CNA Documentary
In Mumbai, an elderly climber is still coming to terms with the death of his wife. He is haunted by the moment he made the decision to leave her on the mountain. In Kashmir, a young climber blames the crowds for his decision to turn back when he was only 800 metres from the summit. For one who’s always wanted to scale the summit, it has become a pipe dream. Climbers and sherpas weigh in on why and how the mountain has become so overcrowded, and the long-lasting impact of environmental issues.

Why Mount Everest's height keeps changing
The world's tallest mountain just got a little taller — here's why.

Mount Everest: Then & Now [1080p]
Mount Everest Then and Now. May marks the 50th anniversary of the first American expedition to summit Mount Everest. Each year, climbers from across the globe trek to the Himalayan monarch to test their mettle against more than five and a half vertical miles of mountain. While alpinism is better understood and relatively safer than half a century ago, its coldest realities remain. On May 1st, 1963, Jim Whittaker became the first American to summit Everest. With the help of his Sherpa guide Nawang Gombu— who, two years later, would go on to be the first man to summit Everest twice— Whittaker made history. His achievement came a decade after New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay claimed first summit. Back then the Nepalese government allowed only one expedition a year. Just ...

Mount Everest : Into the Death Zone - the fifth estate
It was May 19, 2012 and a young and determined Canadian was proudly standing on top of the world after an agonizingly slow climb up Mount Everest. Shriya Shah-Klorfine had reached the summit. But in the hours that followed, things would go dreadfully wrong and she would perish, like hundreds before her, high up in Everest's "Death Zone."
Since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's first ascent of Everest almost 60 years ago, it has been an irresistible fascination for aspiring mountaineers. Hundreds make the attempt every year, and many don't make it. This year was no exception as hundreds made their way to the summit even as worrying signs pointed to trouble. Among them was Shriya Shah-Klorfine, the cheerful and energetic Torontonian. She had never climbed a mountain before, and despite wa...

Mount Everest Then and Now. May marks the 50th anniversary of the first American expedition to summit Mount Everest. Each year, climbers from across the globe trek to the Himalayan monarch to test their mettle against more than five and a half vertical miles of mountain. While alpinism is better understood and relatively safer than half a century ago, its coldest realities remain. On May 1st, 1963, Jim Whittaker became the first American to summit Everest. With the help of his Sherpa guide Nawang Gombu— who, two years later, would go on to be the first man to summit Everest twice— Whittaker made history. His achievement came a decade after New Zealander Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay claimed first summit. Back then the Nepalese government allowed only one expedition a year. Just three weeks after Whittaker stood atop Everest, four other Americans from his team followed suit. Barry Bishop and Lute Jerstad took the summit from the South Col, the last camp on the Southeastern ridge of Everest, as Whittaker had. Tom Horbein and Willi Unsoeld met Bishop and Jerstad at the top after breaking the first, treacherous ascent of the Western ridge. In less than a month, the American expedition, led by Swiss transplant Norman Dyhrenfurth, put five men on the summit—as many as during the entire decade before them.

It was May 19, 2012 and a young and determined Canadian was proudly standing on top of the world after an agonizingly slow climb up Mount Everest. Shriya Shah-Klorfine had reached the summit. But in the hours that followed, things would go dreadfully wrong and she would perish, like hundreds before her, high up in Everest's "Death Zone."
Since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's first ascent of Everest almost 60 years ago, it has been an irresistible fascination for aspiring mountaineers. Hundreds make the attempt every year, and many don't make it. This year was no exception as hundreds made their way to the summit even as worrying signs pointed to trouble. Among them was Shriya Shah-Klorfine, the cheerful and energetic Torontonian. She had never climbed a mountain before, and despite warnings from her friends, husband, and seasoned Everest sherpas, she was climbing the world's highest peak, determined to succeed.
In this 2012 documentary, Bob McKeown travels to Nepal and pieces together what happened with exclusive never-before-seen video of Shah-Klorfine's final hours on Everest. the fifth estate uncovers startling information about her deadly climb into the icy oxygen-thin expanse of Everest known as the Death Zone.
