I found some clips on youtube and they are about the most indescribable thing I've seen. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWlVRctqoFY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dlXlJvCLblo They're kind of hard to watch... |

Scream of Stone |

Damn...Evolution Revolution is pretty crazy. I appreciate how different its approach is but it kinda reminds me of "The Ring", like if I watch the whole thing I might lose my mind. |

I stand corrected. Is this more to your liking Mike? "Evolution-Revolution is an old VHS featuring Lkem Loskot, a climbers vid, not a Hollywood production." |

"K2", a hollywood production, has some good climbing footage, albeit with some screwy technical stuff. |
|
Three on a rope |
|
Scarey Faces. By far. |
|
Touching the Void. We all know the story but it is filmed and acted really well. You can almost feel the pain. |
|
Fred Padula's El Capitan. Beautifully shot by Glenn Denny. |
|
Assault on El Cap was pretty good watchin |
|
The Eiger Sanction & Touching the Void. |
|
Americans on Everest - can be found on Youtube - makes High and Hallowed look stupid and way over produced.
The Hard Way - Annapurna South Face (1970) - youtube.com/watch?v=ASs95G4… |
|
I know "K2" has been mentioned but check out "K2: Siren of the Himalayas". More of a documentary about the 2009 disaster. |
