Casey - You are very lucky to be alive. The danger here is not the cold or lack of endurance. It is lack of oxygen (hypoxia). This starts happening above 12,000 ft. This mountain is 22,828 ft tall. One key symptom of hypoxia is confusion. Basically, you start making very bad decisions.

[@anal.8255]

so basically I have hypoxia 24/7? but I'm below 12K feet, how?

[@cemx86]

I assume you live below 12,000 ft. Hypoxia is a problem that starts being an issue when you are ABOVE 12,000 ft.

[@Natalia-cb5gf]

This is why you have to put your oxygen mask on first on an airplane because at 25,000 feet you have 15 seconds to put on the mask until you get to the point where you get confused because after those 15 seconds you don't have the mental awareness to know you need to put the mask on

I climbed Aconcagua in 2003. Even though the group I was with had guides, they both got got Hypoxia on summit day and wondered off and left us. I remember stumbling up to the summit by myself, taking twice as long as I had no idea where I was going. As you were having blackouts you were very lucky to not have fallen over on the summit approach, those big boulders at the top are loose and constantly moving about - at one point I was climbing over them with crampons, I remember thinking that this is probably not a good idea. It felt like I was drunk and hungover but lucid and walking underwater, once I got to the summit I just collapsed - I didn’t even take a photo or look around, I just wanted to get back down again.

David Di Franco you are missing the real point of this story. In telling this story, he is attempting to talk some sense to those who are reckless.

Climbing above 20,000ft without proper acclimatization is quite fatal. It can lead to High-altitude pulmonary edema. Fluid starts accumulating in your lungs and your brain starts swelling which can lead to delusional disorder. Yours was a classic case of "Summit Fever". Thats the reason why theres always a team leader at base camp who makes the decision to summit or not-to-summit in any organised expedition, because often times at high altitudes people become delusional and try to achieve the impossible.

i dont know if you were actually the highest humans in the world at the time you summated like you say you were because you got to think about if there were any astronauts in the space station at the time.

[@casey]

if you're in space or on an airplane you're not actually on earth. we had our feat planted on terra firma at nearly 23k ft ASL

[@chrome0117]

Snoop dog and wiz khalifa were higher

[@thunderchickenthighs2150]

CaseyNeistat I know it was likely a typo, and I know you likely meant "feet," but using "feat" in its place in this sentence sounds like a clever play on words.

[@thegrenwolds]

Casey, you are just a great person and you inspire me a lot! Thank you! 🍀

When Casey was on the mountain, he looked like the main character from the movie, Everest.

[@connorkormos1570]

The singer in the beginning legit sounded like a car alarm

[@DemilyContehkinz]

It's called opera :) She was actually pretty good.

[@umue11]

[@GraceGarnet]

I'm NOT trying to be rude or challenge you by saying this but did the thought of Owen not make you want to not do it!?

[@FForeverr332]

Grace McCaffrey Hence the reckless aspect of Casey story in his vlog, as we all know risk and recklessness isn't just about the impacts on oneself.

[@GraceGarnet]

FForeverr332 As well when you have a kid young you still want to 'live' so i'm sure it makes you even more reckless because you try and be like a teenager again

[@RA-gy4ol]

U see when u have a goal in ur mind and then u get to that level u dont wanna stop and if u trust yourself y cabt stop too . Idk i just wanna tell ya .

[@dkediaful]

Grace McCaffrey People like Casey, when reach a decision or aim or goal, do not care about anything/anyone else until that decision or aim or goal is fulfilled. They are like horses with those flaps over their eyes which do not let them see anything but the finish line. The thought of anything/anyone else only appears when they realize that the goal or aim is maybe not impossible but unachievable at that moment of time. These people often take risks and be reckless and in the end turn out to be either wise with experience or die young and adventurous but also somewhat foolish.(I hope this never happens to anyone).

[@BroodingPeeps]

Grace McCaffrey I think that Owen isn't the only reason Casey would not want to die. No one wants to die; His death would have other consequences except for Owen losing him.

[@angusmoloney9834]

Casey you tell all these stories and I feel like these are just a couple

[@mohmmadashayn8273]

You can tell when graham said ‘ we didn’t come halfway around the world not to’ he meant it and he was in serious pain and hurting really bad

[@lhamilt]

Editing question: I wonder if Casey picks songs before editing, or edits and then finds songs to match

[@DevinAOnline]

lhamilt I would guess he picks songs first. It usually takes more time to do it the other way if you want the music synced up to the video at all

[@ThomasPetersenPhotography]

He chooses the music before I think. Because often when there is a bass a specific scene gets another view or he cuts stuff in between out. I suppose.

[@BroodingPeeps]

lhamilt I think he just gets to know the artists IRL and/or looks for other music he likes on Soundcloud.

[@dansmithbyu1]

lhamilt Definitely before the edit. If he didn't have the music he wouldn't be able to edit properly beforehand.

[@benmurray-smith9650]
