This movie really shows you what is involved in climbing a mountain. I never realized the amount of equipmeent that is needed to climb a mountain like Everest. The amount of preparation that is needed or the actual time involved in the climb. This is no weekend for the casual climber. There is real danger even to those who have done this sort of thing before. If you have ever thought of trying it, this movie will either make you do it, or forget it. I liked the camera angles as well as the close ups of the climbers.
