We are all walking on the edge of life

Why climb? Because the mountain is there.
Why save people? Because they need help.
Why live? Because you can die at any time.

The story itself is simple, just like the course of each of our lives, it is not complicated. Those so-called legends are bullshit. The real legend is the process, the details, the struggles in the process.
In the process of climbing, "who decides the life and death of others?"

Unlike other sports, rock climbing is a sport that keeps accumulating failures. Every time you challenge a new difficulty, you need to experience many failures, many falls, and then achieve a height. After going to a new height, you find that there are many, many more ahead.
Snow line climbing is even more challenging to the limit, challenging the physical limit, and even more challenging the limit of human beings to withstand failure. Accumulating height with failure is intuitive and fair.
Extreme failure is death. Only after experiencing the brink of death can you appreciate that every moment of life is so precious. Anytime, really any time, life can end suddenly.

When we walk through the edge of life, we will find that it is good to be alive. If life can let more people know what you've been through, it's earned.

    From the moment you set foot on the mountain, your destiny is closely tied with your teammates

    Even if you don't know mountain climbing, you can feel how tough a bunch of distress plots are. Because it's too fake, I can't feel the greatness of the family inside at all. 6 people carrying a pile of nitroglycerin on their backs to climb a snowy mountain to blow up a hole is too funny, but half of them blew themselves up before the finish line... The male protagonist is so powerful, he dares to fall directly under his feet when he knows the danger. I just saw the news of the Donkey Mountaineering Team, and then I saw the movie of the Donkey Rescue Team...
