In the mid-80’s two young climbers attempted to reach the summit of Siula Grande in Peru; a feat that had previously been attempted but never achieved. With an extra man looking after base camp, Simon and Joe set off to scale the mount in one long push over several days. The peak is reached, however on the descent Joe falls and breaks his leg. Despite what it means, the two continue with Simon letting Joe out on a rope for 300 meters, then descending to join him and so on. However when Joe goes out over an overhang with no way of climbing back up, Simon makes the decision to cut the rope. Joe falls into a crevice and Simon, assuming him dead, continues back down. Joe however survives the fall and was lucky to hit a ledge in the crevice. This is the story of how he got back down.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Mycket bra “dokument\u00e4r”. Den f\u00e5ngar upp dig fr\u00e5n f\u00f6rsta b\u00f6rjan och h\u00e5ller dig p\u00e5 kanten av soffan genom hela filmen. Den \u00e4r skapad av samma g\u00e4ng som g\u00f6r serien “Jag borde vara d\u00f6d” som g\u00e5r p\u00e5 Discovery. TYcker du om den serien kommer du verkligen tycka om denna filmen.<\/p>\n
