And under the ice they will remain frozen for untold centuries, their ultimate demise known only to the frosted wind. Sorta romantic, I suppose. Thank you for their story, Mr Fascinating.

I think most of these climbers know they will never be old men. And they're fine with that.

A once in a generation athlete and one of my personal favorite modern climbers/mountaineers

Incredible!! Such drive!

It must be a measure of esthetic purity that the very best in an endeavor have no interest in public recognition beyond perhaps those who share the same vision. It is their equivalent to Muir's words: "The Mountains are calling, and I must go".

Playing with fire, although it gets hot and burns in the end, few still do it cuz it is warm, dazzling, and exciting before that.
-
Marc's movie was so scary to me. How anyone could do that is beyond me and I was a star athlete in high school 35 years ago.

RIP Marco!

Awsome vid, but in the film the Alpinist they said that they where covered by avalanche debri. The mountain gives the mountain takes.
