No I think the Chinese or Sherpa people were the first to summit Everest.

[@tankgirl_3846]

Unfortunately, we will probably never know for sure.

[@Lukejb2Butterworth]

@@jocarson5310 Well before the ccp invasion in the1950s there were no Chinese people there , they would be Tibetans not Chinese

[@joygimbel7760]

This is a most thorough video of their mystery, thank you. True explorers.

[@TheExtreme-Edge]

@@joygimbel7760 Thank you so much! 🌟 Your appreciation means a lot.

Jimmy Chin is an absolute treasure. Equal parts talented, badass, insightful, and inspiring. If you haven't seen "Meru" but you loved "Free Solo," pull up Prime video on your highest-def TV, put your phone on airplane mode, grab some popcorn and a cozy blanket, and settle in for a stunningly good mountaineering film. It truly should have been nominated for an Oscar for cinematography. I would watch anything Jimmy makes; film, TV, animated short, a used car commercial... anything.

[@barbaralamson7450]

Thank you. I am going to do just that.

[@joygimbel7760]

Sandy was just beginning his life. His story hits me hardest.

[@nickwright3746]

I heard a Chinese expedition found sandy further up the mountain and pushed him off in 1975 and have the camera but couldn’t develop the film. I don’t know how true it is but it’s well spoken about

[@tim2024-df5fu]

We're not even as warm as it was in the 1920's. The last time it really warmed up for an extended period we called it "The Renaissance". We're at the end of the last ice age is why the ice is melting and it's not melting as fast as you think. The Arctic is experiencing a 20 year high in ice and snow.

​@taritabonita22 where? Are you talking about Everest? In my state it hasn't been that hot at all. I wonder if it's just there. 🤔

[@lecorse62]

Encore un coup des chinois qui ont balancé le corps en 1975, le pied n'avait rien à faire là puisque lors de l'ascension finale, il était vu, à plus de 8200 mètres. Georges Mallory a été trouvé à 8229 mètres. Sinon pour moi oui ils ont réussit à aller au sommet mais ils ont péri lors de la descente. Cela fait d'eux les meilleurs grimpeurs de tout les temps.

[@auralplex]

Lowell O’Dell, aka Mathew mcconahey. I don’t know how to spell either of their names.

[@cattymajiv]

Yes. Tough to spell. Google says it's spelled Matthew McConaughy and Lowell Odell. It also shows Lowell Odell to be quite a common name, very surprisingly to me! Most of them don't use an apostrophe after the O, but some do, as you did. I haven't heard the name before, so I don't know who you are referring to, or if his name has an apostrophe or not. (In case somebody feels like jumping all over me about it.)

[@patricklaune5712]

@@matthewwright3930 did u like ur own comment?! 🤣 It doesn't matter if it's a fact, I just don't wanna be reminded of our all doom ship if we don't pay more taxes only because I looked up a video of climbers. I just wanted to give some reason why I didn't watch the video for more than 40 seconds, and not for some guy who makes himself look better but didn't make anything better. I don't have a problem if the video goes on and after 20 mins or in the aftermath, we get some of this theory.

[@Eogyu09]

No your climate religion sucks. So glad its ending. ​@@matthewwright3930

[@spiderfan1974]

And if the snow and ice had not of melted who would still be buried under snow and ice? And what is making the glaciers and snow melt on lots of mountains usually covered in snow year round? It is relevant to the story.

[@borntoclimb7116]

Ok

[@alexm2833]

Climate chaaaaaange!!! Run for the hills! Hahaha.😅

[@jenniferbreaux7385]

I like to think they made it.

[@alicetotterdown2536]

Unfortunately a summit doesn't count if you don't make it down alive

[@jax9224]

The story I feel like is the most believable is the Chinese found the camera a long time ago and turned it over to their country so they could try to be the first country to have a person on top of the tallest mountain

[@mfallen2023]

I've always believed they made it and it were descending when tragedy struck.

It gets warmer... at the end of an ice age... nothing humans have to do with... everything else is bollocks

[@cattymajiv]

Although this starts off with some info about Irvine I hadn't known, it's still not worth watching, because of the AI written script. I can live with computerized voices, but the way AI always drags the thing out so long is as boring as can be. It's unwatchable.

[@cdeccles]

metres not feet, please!

[@arnerrvik7586]

Climbers are like flat earthers, thinking everyone else cares. Some guy went up a deadly mountain, and shocker... he died. It's not a mystery, certainly not the greatest, and the only one who cares are other climbers. Watch MERU 2015, great docu.

[@svsfazio]

So why are you here commenting?

[@pobinr]

Are these people mad? The commentators voice is irritating

[@samstewart4807]

[@Dank69410]

Would be an interesting video besides the global warming crap

[@LD-qj2te]

Why is it crap ? The melting of permafrost and glaciers is causing the discovery of many past frozen items. Global warming is a real issue that is easily researchable but scientifically completely agreed upon since the 1950’s

[@JudasMaccabeus1]

I know it’s a difficult concept to grasp but the 2 to 4 giga tons of carbon monoxide we pump into the atmosphere every year is actually not good for the atmosphere or environment. I know it’s crazy and doesn’t make any sense…
