Everest

Episode 2 (1x2)

Air date: Aug 31, 2007

The expedition proudly sets up base camp with live TV coverage, a first-ever. Bringing equipment up to camp one seems to go well, they even rescue a scattered New Zealdn expedition's survivor, until one group sets out without checking the grim weather forecast and is caught by an avalanche. Neophyte Pasang and two other Sherpas are killed, but the others agree to continue, despite grim feelings of guilt and blame.
