Max Sedelmayer had a brother, but he was not lost with Max on the Eiger at Death Bivouac. You are referring to his partner Karl Mehringer

The best camera-shared climbing experience I have had watching many many climbing videos. Your photos were great and your narration was informative and easy to listen to. I don't run marathons but I stay in shape other ways however my big climbing prohibitive is heights. If I am standing on a curb that's too high for me. Thanks for sharing.

i climbed mt fuji and all was well until 1/4 from the summit when a horrible gale blew over. everyone backed off but i went on. when i got to the ledge over the top the winds were hurricane. i saw a guy holding on to something and he was flapping horizontal like a flag. i hunkered down wondering what to do looking at him and finally went back over and down. the return was like five times as long as going straight up as its a gravel switchback plus dodging rocks flying at me from the storm all the way down. when i finally got back on the train i looked at fujisama with the huge storm still across the top and it was hard to believe i had been there. i got back to tokyo caked in mud and was laid up in bed for two days, my knees a wreck. so yeah even what should be easy climbs can turn on you.

Really interesting thank you. I got here by a strange route. I listened to a podcast on BBC sounds by Sir Ranulph Fiennes on fear. During it he mentioned the book The White Spider which I’m half way through just now. I wanted to get the Eiger better into my mind and came to KZitem and your presentation. As far as climbing, I can’t get upstairs in my house without holding on to my rail but I am no longer perplexed at why you superhumans climb these terrifying mountains and you have my utmost respect.

I find it fascinating that along some of the routes of the highest peaks on Earth, you will find Frozen people that died in route to the top of the world. There's the famous one I think it's called green shoes or green boots on the way to the top of Mount Everest and if the snow is just right you see him laying on his side underneath a rock ledge and it looks like it's just somebody that went to sleep but in reality it's a frozen man that's been there for 50 years or maybe 20 years I can't remember

Very lucky about weather, snow, that "cave" and ..determination. It's hard to find two or more perfect days in row on that face. I think is way greater number of climbers which DIED on that route than the ones which reached the summit climbing same route.

On the first ascent Heckmair and Vorg had front point crampons, Kasparek had 10 points, and Harrer only nailed boots. The logic for Kasparek and Harrer was that Kasparek would lead the snow and ice pitches and Harrer the rick pitches.

One question please : in the difficult crack there are many pitons or there are few protections ( pitons, ect) She considers the quartz crack to be the most difficult point of the climb, even more difficult than the exit of the ramp (the crux = the waterfall chimney???) Thank you very much for your answers and congratulations again!!!! Best wishes. P.s : My dream would be to do this great climb and great adventure!!!

Climbing the North Face can definitely be dangerous, especially if you come underprepared. However, having enough knowledge, experience, adequate fitness levels, and a good guide by your side is the best way to minimize risks and maximize your chance of reaching the top :)
