because the mountains are there

The legendary mountaineer George Mallory inadvertently said "because the mountain is there" when asked by reporters "Why do you want to climb?" I am afraid that this belief has become the creed of many climbers. This belief definitely not only refers to mountaineering itself, but also It can be expanded to follow the meaning of life or even become a belief in life. Just like almost everyone in the movie gives a completely different meaning to mountaineering, or the confusion of life, or an unpromised promise, or an expectation and sublimation of the meaning of life, I believe that all the beautiful scenery is only what the climbers look forward to. A small part of it, and the grandeur and bravery experienced in the process of climbing is what everyone hopes to achieve. I know some people in my life who love to travel and mountaineering. Before I really started to travel and contact these people, I used to understand that travel and mountaineering were superficial as a solution after a depressed life, but in fact travel has become a part of them , become their life, still will not stop moving up in the face of the mountain that has just experienced a mountain disaster, when asked about the reason and the meaning, they will give noncommittal jokes, just like travel and mountaineering are like shopping for them Supermarkets are just as normal, and there are even many people who basically don’t take pictures when they travel. The meaning and reason are probably the most stupid, beautiful and meaningless questions. If there is a meaning, it is very simple, because the mountains are there.
In the first half of watching the movie, I like the aerial photography and the dialogue between the characters. The magnificence of Mount Everest is definitely not only as thin as the lens shows, but also has great doubts about the smoothness of the summit process, but after watching it completely After the film, these doubts disappeared. One of the charms of mountaineering also includes all kinds of unexpected events in the whole process. Good weather will not favor everyone. In front of nature, people can only rely on courage. The small stone tip that everyone yearns for is only the most. It is close to the place of conquest, but the momentum spread by the entire mountain peak is unconquerable. The last time I tried to climb the high-altitude snow-capped mountain really made me realize the courage and fearlessness of walking among the long ridges. Powerless. Thinking about the mountain disaster that happened on the southern slope of Mount Everest last year, and the various mountain disasters that happened on other mountain peaks one after another, maybe all climbers are ready to never come back when they reach the top. The mountain is far away. The call is also the call of the sound close to the ear, to be or not to be, you choose.
The movie itself is three and a half stars, and the feelings are added casually. It may be an excellent experiential movie for mountaineering enthusiasts. It is mainly about the restoration of characters and the expression of emotions. It is far from the so-called mountaineering documentaries (there are many such documentaries on the Internet), The depiction of mountaineering is still too much of a joke, and it is an excellent emotional film rather than a guiding film.
Finally, pay tribute to all mountain climbing heroes, the mountain is with you!

    The Sherpas have been in human flesh for ten years, and you have been "inscribed in history" one by one. When you perform, you are discriminated against and lose the chain at a critical moment. If an american citizen even kills himself, he must have international rescue. tell your tough guy story in ur own place. Get started!

    When I was young, I thought that this kind of life was enough. When I got older, I thought that there is nothing more important than life. What should people who love you do? Be brave to pursue and protect the one you love and take responsibility for your own choices. We can't understand 100% that what others can do is to know more about ourselves.
