In the past few years in the United States, I have seen some large and small films. This is the first time I have encountered a movie theater explosion and a long queue at the ticket counter to buy tickets. Perhaps because people in the northwest are keen on outdoor sports, such films are particularly attractive. Or maybe it's because of the geographical relationship between Scott Fischer, the mountain madness leader who died in the Mount Everest disaster in 1996, and his family who settled in Seattle. Or maybe it's a great movie at all.
There are many human factors involved in this disaster. For example, the ropes that should have been fixed were not fixed properly, and there was a problem with oxygen rationing. In order to help customers who were already exhausted to climb to the top of the mountain, the time for descending the mountain was not strictly controlled. The conditions lead to the passage of time, directly confronting the storm. Although the disaster and death are extremely worrying, as a beginner in mountaineering, the limited mountaineering experience makes me still full of admiration for the courage and firmness of the climbers, and I have more experience of this kind of "crazy" at the cost of life an understanding.
The extremely cold weather, the dangerous environment, and a certain moment of life and death, as Beb said, its all suffering. Yes, mountaineering is such a masochistic thing. And all of this, like the dialogue in the movie, is not a competition between people, it is only about the mountains, and the last remaining is just the mountains. The majesty and beauty of the mountains, the difficulty and pain of climbing, just like drugs, can make people addicted to it. I remember when I climbed Mt. Stuar last weekend, tears were about to fall. Inner fear, worry when getting lost, physical exhaustion, the peak and foot of the mountain that can’t be seen at a glance, the rain falling from the helmet, the soaked clothes, and the howling wind on the top of the mountain, the feeling of powerlessness has changed. With a heavy weight, I want people to regret and give up. However, there is no choice but to continue. Climbing, testing and exercising not only courage and physical strength, but also endurance and perseverance. Because of these experiences, I understand why Doug insists on climbing to the top of the mountain when his physical strength is exhausted, and why Rob agrees and helps him reach the top of Mount Everest. It's just that all this has paid a heavy price because of the storm.
Reporter Jon kept asking them why they came to Mount Everest. Everyone couldn't tell the probabilities, so in the end they all spoke in unison, because the mountains were there. Yes, the mountains are there, waiting for us to climb, Mount Everest, K2, almost every year, people stay in the mountains, but every year, there are still new climbers who know that there are tigers in the mountains and tend to go to the mountains.
After watching the movie, I had tears in my eyes, but I tried hard not to let the tears flow. Life is inherently impermanent. It is always a happy thing to be crazy once in one's lifetime, to have some different experiences and experiences, to challenge one's own limits.
I dedicate this document to those who dare to challenge themselves!
