What can go wrong? Oh gently caress I broke my leg on top of the mountain and now my friend needs to slowly lower me down bit by bit. Oh gently caress now it's storming. Oh gently caress now he lowered me over a ledge and we're stuck sitting like this cause he can't see cause the storm and doesn't know. Oh gently caress he cut the rope. Oh gently caress I've fallen into a deep crevasse and my friend thinks I'm dead and left. Oh gently caress my legs are messed up and I can't get up. Might as well go down further. Oh great I found the way out but now I have to crawl for (I think it was 2 days?) over a bunch of hidden crevasses.

Touching the Void is one of the most amazing stories ever.
For you NPR folks out there, apparently they still have available an old story about an Everest expedition they covered back in '88: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4581895 Giving this a listen it isn't the full extent of the reporting they did, but just some recordings made by their reporter trying to keep up with the climbers. For a taste of how much fun climbing Everest really is.
