AMERICANS ON EVEREST

Uploaded by: jonnychendssd
Video Description:
Narrated by the powerful ORSON WELLES - In the winter of 1963, a small band of climbers embarked on one of the greatest adventures of our time. Fighting altitude, falling ice, freezing winds and snowstorms, they challenged the world's tallest mountain. Led by Norman Dyhrenfurth, who also produced and directed this film, the expedition marked the first time that Americans had successfully reached the summit. The route they attempted includes the "traditionel" Southeast route, as well as the dangerous West Ridge, a path which no one had dared yet negotiate. Narrated by Orson Welles, the film features the first motion pictures ever taken from the mountain's summit. AMERICANS ON EVEREST is an incredibly vivid account of the journey taken by twenty men who learned that Everest might be conquered, but it would never be tamed.
