I’ve watched this quite a few times now, absolutely love these club casts, hope there will be more in the future!!

Amazing human being

Absolute legend

I am Rick's step-daughter and it has been 3 years since he died, it is so good to his voice again.

Great series of interviews! Thanks for sharing and gather such high profile legends ❤

Brilliant presentation. Breathtaking photos. Kudos to the team!

One of the best rescue stories I have ever heard. Lucky man.

. It is great to hear people, some of whom I knew 50 yrs ago, like Stephen. Love the background sounds of a typical Indian city

Very interesting interview

A great man. Thank you for sharing.

Thankyou Nick Hurndell Smith for this video of three artists of The Alpine Club..It is especially meaningful for those of us who knew John Colton whom I had the good fortune to meet several times.Having some of his Alpine paintings and sketches to see and his climbing experiences to listen to, are gifts of modern technology. John is no longer physically on the earth but his presence through this recording is a great memorial. Thankyou. Gwenda

The interviewers are terrible to bad because it could have been a great interview 😂😂

His voice sounds the same as 40 years ago in a documentary i saw he was filming

A very interesting watch. I was sorry to hear about the Venables` family suffering later on. Only one thing confused me - he refers to Harish in the third person. But the blurb above implies it was him doing the interview.

Two pairs of pyjamas and a golfing jacket on Tirich Mir! Love it?❤

another wonderful interview - thanks

As a per my experience, during his tenure at HMI, the training faculties was so developed with minimum budget and new ideas was included for training purpose

Thanks for upload ..great to hear this .

Wow so good to hear his stories Would love to have a casual conversation with him about all his climbs. Definitely make sure my phone was switched off!!

I was friends with Ed Webster. We often talked about this climb. And, of course, looked at his fingers. He taught me a lot. Wonderful interview. Thank you.

*Promosm* 👌

Thank you for the great video. Can anyone tell me how I can find the film, Bonington's Secret Mountain? I watched it once online but cannot find it anywhere. I even contacted Bonington's office with no results. I would love ot see it again.

very very interesting - thank you

Great

It'd be interesting if Mallory summited Everest.I'm not 100% sure Hillary/Norgay reached the peak.[ lack of proper photographic evidence ].

One lighter ? Only one lighter !!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice video 😮😮😅😅😊😅

Cannot hear this.

Wonderful presentation. Such a nostalgic genre.

sad i could not hear what he was saying!!!

That was a pretty incredible climb -what amazing features and topography.

This lecture is extraordinary. Venables is a great storyteller and to hear him talk about this incredible 4 man effort to climb the Kangshung Face of Everest, in what is undoubtedly one of the greatest and toughest ascents and routes ever undertaken on Earth's highest mountain, is simply mesmerizing. My only "complaint" is that it could be at least twice as long, with all the details left out here due to the time constraints. However, if you want/need to hear more about this amazing expedition, as I did, pick up Venables' Everest: Alone at the Summit and Webster's Snow in the Kingdom. Both are excellent. To further emphasize what an important and fascinating talk this is, and the sheer gravity of what the Alpine Club represents and its legendary members, Sir Chris Bonington stands at the end and gives Stephen the ultimate compliment. I can't help but wonder who else was in the room this evening. Marvelous stuff! Thanks for sharing!

*Excellent script - but, audio too weak.Greetingd from sunny tropical THAILAND*

I really enjoyed this. Stephen is a wonderful story teller.

I saw Doug twice here in the USA. Washington State.

This brings back memories. The first issue of Climbing magazine that I bought had the article about this ascent. I was so blown away by the photos and the article. Read it multiple times and poured over the photos numerous times. The bivouac photo on that barely wide enough ledge with the slings tied to the bivy sack holding it in place both amazed and terrified me. The contrast between siege style mountaineering and alpine style climbing was so immense.

excellent viewing
