Solo in the Death Zone: Brian Dickinson's Blind Descent from Everest This week's Team Never Quit guest is no stranger to adversity. Brian Dickinson, a former U.S. Navy Special Operations Aviation Rescue Swimmer and elite mountaineer, joins us to share the harrowing true story of his solo summit and descent of Mount Everest after being left without a guide—and without sight. After his Sherpa fell ill near the South Col, Brian pushed onward alone to the top of the world, only to be struck by sudden snow blindness on the way down. What followed was a seven-hour descent with no vision, no oxygen, and no margin for error. Brian holds the record for the highest solo blind descent and has completed the Seven Summits, conquering the tallest peaks on each continent. Before his mountaineering feats, Brian served six years in the U.S. Navy with the elite NSO (Naval Special Operations) community, deploying on high-risk rescue and combat missions in the Persian Gulf. Now the host of Calm in the Chaos, a podcast that highlights raw, untold rescue stories from America's unsung heroes, Brian brings the same courage, insight, and humility to this conversation. Whether you're a fan of extreme adventure, military resilience, or human endurance—you won't want to miss this one. In This Episode You Will Hear: • {Marcus] I'm a Charlie Sheen SEAL. (8:19) • It's weird when you go from jumping put of helicopters to something less interesting. (14:11) • You can't really plan for giving up in the death zone – 26,00 feet. But you can train for the things in your control. (18:07) • You can't acclimate to 26 [thousand feet]. You're slowly dying. Like if you cut your finger, it won't heal. There's not enough air. (23:23) • At Camp 3, this is where you see a straight up ice wall. If you fall, you're falling for a mile. (24:32) • When I got about a thousand feet above Camp 3, I had to anchor off to get some water. I had an oxygen mask and goggles, and I took my goggles off to put them around my wrist, and as I was getting my mask off to drink water, my foot slipped, I went to grab the rope, and my goggles slid off and 4they're just like… down. And you don't bring extra gear. (25:35) • There're over 300 bodies still on the mountain. (30:38) • You live and die by the decisions you make in life. (31:34) • When you climb any mountain at night, the sun is your first indication of hope. (37:33) • According to the Himalayan Database, I'm one of two people to ever have the summit to myself on a given day. (39:07) • Everything just went completely white. I went Snowblind. And I remember at that moment, dropping down, grabbing the rope, and assessing the situation thinking: I'm at the highest point in the world, I'm completely blind; no one's coming to get me. (41:07) • I just witnessed a miracle. It was like someone reached down and picked me up. An unexplained energy. The first thing I did was try the extra oxygen bottle and it started working, and I got 5 full beaths – reeling it in – and it burned. It felt like fire going through my veins. (48:02) • Everyone loves a survival story. They could care less about the survivor. (53:43) • That whole time, Jesus was walking alongside me. I felt that presence.

Welcome back to the Information Entropy Podcast where this week, we're climbing to new heights—literally—as we take a deep dive into the science of mountains! From the violent tectonic forces that build them to the brutal conditions of the Death Zone, we break down what makes these towering giants so extreme. Why do some mountains keep growing while others crumble away? How do animals survive in one of the harshest habitats on Earth? And what happens to the human body when you climb above 8,000 meters?

What kind of person looks at the world's tallest mountain, a frozen, oxygen-starved, avalanche-prone giant and thinks, “Yeah, I'll have a go at that?” Tim Kington, a photographer and adventure seeker with a dream to stand atop the world, took on Everest, facing brutal conditions where the air is too thin to breathe, the temperatures can freeze flesh, and every step is a fight against nature itself. In this episode, I talk to Tim about what it takes to climb Everest, the reality of the so-called Death Zone, and why, despite the dangers, thousands still attempt to reach the summit—some making history, others becoming part of the mountain forever. Links to all guests and features will be on the showpage, my sincere thanks to MPB who sponsor this show and the Extra Milers without whom we wouldn't be walking each week.

Der Mount Everest ist mit seinen 8.849 Metern Höhe der höchste Punkt der Erde, weshalb er vor allem in der Vergangenheit auch als „dritter Pol“ eben dieser bezeichnet wurde. In seiner brachialen Präsenz thront der weiße Riese inmitten des Himalaya-Gebirges genau auf der Grenze zwischen Tibet in China und Nepal. Ob „Stirn des Himmels“ auf Nepali, „Mutter des Universums“ auf Tibetisch oder „Dach des Himmels“ au deutsch, der Everest hat viele Namen und zählt zu den 14 Achttausendern und den Seven Summits, also den jeweils höchsten Bergen der 7 Kontinente, dieser Erde. Wohl weit über 30.000 Menschen haben in den letzten 70 Jahren versucht, den Mount Everest zu bezwingen … ein nicht zu vernachlässigender Prozentsatz von 1,3% kam bei diesen Versuchen sogar ums Leben. Mit den mehr als 340 Todesfällen, schrieb der Mount Everest in der Vergangenheit regelmäßig Schlagzeilen und erlangte dadurch traurige Berühmtheit. Auf unserer heutigen Expedition lüften wir das Geheimnis vom Phantom des Everest, diskutieren die Frage, wie weit Ehrgeiz, Egoismus und Eigenverantwortung auf dem Everest gehen dürfen und ob Menschlichkeit beim Besteigen des höchsten Gipfels dieser Erde tatsächlich auf der Strecke bleibt.

Jane Kanizay is an adventurer, educator, activist, speaker, artist and mother of four who on 14 May 2022 successfully climbed Mt. Everest with her 19-year-old daughter. Jane enjoys sharing the highs and lows of her Everest experience and the journey of resilience required to take on such an immense challenge as a survivor. Jane climbed with the message of @teachusconsent to campaign for holistic consent education in school education curriculum and to advocate for the prevention of violence against women. To have a message to take to the summit provided additional strength on the days Jane had reached her physical or emotional limits. High altitude mountaineering is one of the deadliest sports in the world. Jane successfully summited mountains above 6000m plus an 8000m summit of Cho Oyu, Tibet, to prepare her for the extreme environment of Everest, considered to be in the ‘death zone' above 8000m where oxygen content is only 34% compared with sea level. Listening to Jane on the Tough Girl Podcast offers a rare insight into the mental and physical fortitude it takes to summit Everest, but also the deeper purpose behind her journey. Through her incredible story, Jane not only inspires adventurers but also advocates for change, sharing how carrying a message of consent and empowerment gave her the strength to push through her limits. Her story will resonate with anyone looking to overcome challenges, build resilience, and find purpose in their own lives.

An international group of climbers are close to summiting one of the world's tallest, and most dangerous, mountains. Their goal was to reach the peak by mid-afternoon and get down before dark when temperatures drop to 40 below and the thin air and darkness can leave climbers confused and lost. But problems with the rope line have put them behind and they are using all of their strength to push past the traverse. The summit is so close… but so is nightfall, and not all of them will make it back.Listen to Against The Odds on the Wondery App or wherever you get your podcasts.

We watch the first two episodes of the 20th anniversary serial “The Five Doctors” in which the Doctors and their assorted companions get transmatted to the infamous Death Zone on Gallifrey... but none of them actually die? As said surviving is going down, the Doctor acts sexist, the Doctor attends the Brig's poorly attended retirement party, the Doctor drags Sarah Jane behind Bessie, the Doctor gets stuck in the transporter buffer (that's for you Trekkies), all whilst the Doctor is going through a “phase”. And that's about as clear as the plot was to me.

Clay Jenkinson's interview with adventurer Alan Mallory about his family's ascent of Mount Everest. That's 29,032 feet, a third of it in the Death Zone, where your body actually starts to die from lack of oxygen and other factors. Mallory walks us through the process—getting to Nepal, the cost, the outfitters, the journey to base camp, where you stay to adjust to the altitude, and then the slow, steady, and exhausting climb through four camps before attempting the summit. On the basis of his book, The Family that Conquered Everest, Mallory has a vibrant career as a motivational speaker. At the end he shares his adventures are ahead.

When Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay summited Mount Everest in 1953, high-altitude climbing was only done by the most elite mountaineers. But that changed in the early 1990s, when veteran climbers began leading amateur clients up the world's tallest mountain for a hefty fee. Today, journalist Will Cockrell joins Host Cassie De Pecol to talk about the history of the Everest guiding industry – from the early Western-led companies to the Nepali-owned ventures today. Cockrell is the author of Everest, Inc.: The Renegades and Rogues who Built an Industry at the Top of the World.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
After a severe blizzard engulfs Mount Everest on May 10th, fifteen people are left stranded on the mountain, unable to find their way back to camp, or too weak to even try. In the early hours of May 11th, rescue efforts are launched to save people before they succumb to altitude sickness or hypothermia. Climbers, and friends down below, must face the sad reality that the odds of them surviving are slim. But, due to heroic acts, not all is lost.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
As the climbers descend from the summit, it becomes a race against time to get back to camp before dark. But a severe blizzard slows their progress to a crawl, and altitude sickness starts to take hold. Some climbers get stuck in the upper reaches of the mountain, while others get lost not far from camp. As darkness falls, the stranded face the terrifying reality of spending the night outside, where oxygen deprivation and hypothermia could easily take their lives.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
As the climbers make their final push for the summit, time is of the essence. They must make it to the top before 2 p.m. to ensure they get back to camp before dark. But due to delays, most of them don't reach the summit until late in the afternoon, and by then, everyone is exhausted and oxygen is running low. Worst of all, a severe storm is moving in fast. As daylight fades, climbers must hurry or they'll be trapped in the Death Zone.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In May 1996, two expert mountaineers and their clients set off to climb the world's tallest peak — Mount Everest. Many of the clients have no high altitude experience and have paid upwards of $65,000 to be guided up the mountain by competing companies: Adventure Consultants and Mountain Madness. As the two expeditions prepare to make their summit attempt, hurricane-force winds threaten to end their climb.

On top of the world. You'd think you'd be jubilant. But at the peak of Mount Everest there's little energy to celebrate. You've got about 20 minutes to enjoy the view, to take in your enormous accomplishment - before it's time to go. You're dying. You're at high risk of cerebral edema. Brain swelling. It's a grand achievement but you must go back down. You can't let it get to your head. Or you will die. In the Death Zone. Please give us likes and reviews in your favorite podcast apps.

Near the summit of Mount Everest in the death zone on the ridge of the north face there is a shallow cave, known infamously to all who climb there as the location where in 1996 an Indian man named Tsewang Paljor lay down to rest and never got up again. That man is referred to as green boots. Almost exactly ten years later, on the morning of May 14, 2006 a small team of mountaineers climbing toward the summit were surprised to find another climber seated there, barely alive sitting next to green boots. It was one of the coldest nights of the season. The man in the cave was David Sharp, an English mountaineer who was on his third expedition to Everest. During the time David Sharp* was sitting in the cave many people passed by, thinking there was nothing they could do to help. News of this reached the outside world and soon an international furor erupted over the death of David Sharp. Even Sir Edmund Hillary weighed in, outraged at the incident. This is the story of David Sharp.Support the show

Transitioning through the death zone requires careful execution and a focus on profitability. The $3 million dollar mark is a critical milestone for businesses, and many struggle to push through it. In this episode, Dan talks to Greg Crabtree, author of Simple Numbers, Straight Talk, Big Profits! about how founders can push through the death zone (otherwise known as the messy middle) and grow their profit far beyond that $3M mark. Some of the common mistakes made by founders include not understanding profit truth, not investing in finance and accounting, and not effectively managing labor efficiency.

Alex Honnold is history's greatest ever climber in the free solo style, meaning he ascends without a rope or protective equipment of any kind.Above about 50 feet, any fall would likely be lethal, which means that, on epic days of soloing, he might spend 12 or more hours in the Death Zone. On the hardest parts of some climbing routes, his fingers will have no more contact with the rock than most people have with the touchscreens of their phones, while his toes press down on edges as thin as sticks of gum. Just watching a video of Honnold climbing will trigger some degree of vertigo, heart palpitations, or nausea in most people, and that's if they can watch them at all. Even Honnold has said that his palms sweat when he watches himself on film.In this episode, Alex shares the unique mindset he brings to some of the most incredible human feats ever accomplished.

Welcome back to The Mojo Podcast. Series 6 of the Mojo Podcast is all about Commitment. A concept that has real weight and meaning for us, as we have all committed at some point in our life and perhaps you're considering a new commitment right now. It's a deeply meaningful area and I wanted to explore it further. So for this season I'll be talking to an amazing array of guests about what commitment means to them and how it impacts their Mojo. How it feels to truly commit to yourself, to your passion & your purpose and to see the results. Rather than sitting on the fence and no committing at all. Because commitment really means choosing not to have any more choice. In episode 2 I meet a seriously impressive young women and the personification of commitment - Adri Brownlee - mountaineer and adventure athlete. Adri has summited 13 of the 14 x 8000m peaks and has achieved 2 x Guinness World Records including being the youngest woman ever to summit K2. Alongside climbing these epic peaks, she has also started her own Trekking and Expedition company – AGA Adventures – alongside her legendary climbing partner Gelje Sherpa. In 2024 she hopes to complete her 14 Peaks Project and become the youngest woman ever to climb the world's 14 x 8000m peaks and the first British woman ever to do so. This was a highly enjoyable conversation that tracks Adri's love for the mountains back to the tender age of 8 when she pictured herself climbing Everest. The next year she became the youngest person in the UK to complete the Three Peaks Challenge aged just 9 - and where she learned she had the mountaineers mindset. We talk about the determination required to thrive in The Death Zone (the place above 8000 metres where human literally begin to die) and also the challenges of chasing records. Adri talks vividly about what the mountains mean to her and how she is connected to them and can hear their call. A truly impressive woman totally committed to her passion and providing inspiration to everyone she meets. Mojo for Adri - when nothing can stop you, which comes from persistence and consistency. instagram: @adri.brownlee website - www.adrianabrownlee.com For corporate bookings and speaking engagments - please contact mark@athletemedia.co.uk And to meet even more athletes powered by purpose - www.athletemedia.co.uk Adri also mentioned her partner - Gelje Sherpa - @gelje_sherpa_ And her mentor - Nims Dai - @nimsdai Remember to subscribe to be notified about new episodes.

In this episode I interviewed Keith Blackmore, who edited Philip Gould's book When I Die, which was published after Philip had died.Philip was one of the architects of New Labour, but in 2011 he had cancer. Keith, then the deputy editor at The Times, started serialising an essay Philip had written about his experience, which later formed part of the book. A few months later, Philip died, after which his family asked Keith to edit this book, When I Die.In the interview we talk about how Keith became involved and the way newspaper editing can make for gripping narrative, but mostly we talked about how he gathered all the words Philip had left behind, Philip's writing style, and how Philip documented his death so beautifully.You can buy the book here:https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/when-i-die-lessons-from-the-death-zone-philip-gould/1858616?ean=9780349139111 Keith also recommended A Death in Malta by Paul Caruana Galizia .

Our focus today is on Robert Kay, a man whose pursuit of conquering Everest took an unexpected turn when he encountered one of the most treacherous challenges faced by mountaineers—high altitude pulmonary edema and high altitude cerebral edema. This story is a testament to the power of determination, the bonds formed in the face of adversity, and the unwavering support that can arise from a community of climbers. Descending from the summit of Mount Everest, Robert Kay found himself in a perilous race against the debilitating effects of high altitude in the unforgiving "Death Zone" of the world's highest peak. About his descent, Robert said “It was a detached sensation,” he recalled. “I didn't feel scared or upset. I know where when I'm going to die and it's right here in a few seconds. Not many people get to know exactly where and when they're going to die, and I do and that's interesting. It didn't seem terrifying at the time.” Listen in this week and learn about Robert Kay's determination to climb Everest, and the determination of his team and other teams on the mountain to rescue him from his life threatening conditions. Robert is eternally grateful for the following individuals who rescued him; "The bottom line for me in this story is that I have been given a second chance at life due to the bravery, skills, hard work and sacrifice of others. I feel like a soldier returning from battle after his buddies carried him through a hail of bullets. Were it not for Pasang Ongchu Sherpa, Sange Sherpa, Ben and Laura Darlington, Barbara Padilla, Lysle Turner, Billy Nugent, Phil Crampton, Jason the pilot, the doctors at the CIWEC Clinic, the six men who carried me to my tent and the six men who carried me over a mile in the snow and dark into C2 there is no doubt in my mind that I would be dead on the side of the mountain that has held my attention for 39 years."

Are you ready to take it to the limit to win? Do you even truly know where the limit is? Have you been there, tested it, and fought through the pain, only to make sure you could go there again. But the next time you'll have the confidence to go there and even further? Our limit isn't a sustainable pace, but it is a place we need to be comfortable working in. Endurance Coach Chris Hinshaw joined Fran Racioppi and Jessie Graff on the back of the US Army Fitness Truck at 2023 NOBULL CrossFit Games for a discussion on the lifetime of work it takes to build capacity and create the adaptations in your body needed to perform with the best. Chris is the founder of Aerobic Capacity, a 10x Ironman Competitor, and one of the world's top endurance coaches having coached 35 CrossFit Games Champions, the US Military, and professional and olympic athletes to the podium. Chis and Fran nerd out on pushing the boundaries of your lactic threshold and how getting comfortable in that "death zone” must be embraced if you expect to win against the world's best. Jessie pushes Chris on mastering the art of establishing a breathing cadence, pacing yourself effectively, and understanding how rest between intervals is just as important as the work put in during the sets.

Interview with mountaineer Willi Steindl, who witnessed over 70 people stepping over Muhammed Hassan as he lay dying in the Death Zone on K2. The death of Mohammad Hassan on K2 has sent shockwaves through the mountaineering community. At 2:15Am on July 27 the Pakistani porter fell near the bottleneck at 8200 meters, found hanging upside down more than 5 meters below the path. Hassan was a porter with no climbing experience, having risked his life to earn the higher wages paid to high altitude porters, in order to support a sick mother and a family… He was woefully outfitted, lacking a down suit, or proper climbing equipment.

The 1996 Mount Everest disaster, also known as the "1996 Everest disaster," was a tragic event that occurred on Mount Everest in May 1996. It involved several climbing teams attempting to reach the summit of the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, and resulted in the deaths of eight climbers.Key points of the 1996 Mount Everest disaster include:Multiple Expeditions: The disaster involved several expeditions led by different guide companies and climbers from various nationalities. Among them were Adventure Consultants, led by Rob Hall, and Mountain Madness, led by Scott Fischer.Adverse Weather Conditions: The climbers faced unusually severe weather conditions, including a fast-approaching storm and strong winds, which made the ascent more challenging.Summit Attempts: On May 10, 1996, many climbers reached the summit of Everest but were caught in deteriorating weather on their way down. This led to delays and exhaustion.Communication Issues: Due to communication problems, some climbers were unaware of the worsening conditions and the impending storm. Radios and satellite phones had limited effectiveness at that altitude.Trapped Above the Death Zone: Several climbers, including Rob Hall and Doug Hansen (a client of Adventure Consultants), became stranded above the South Col in what is known as the "Death Zone" (above 26,000 feet or 8,000 meters) due to exhaustion and illness.Tragic Deaths: Eight climbers lost their lives during the disaster, including Rob Hall, Scott Fischer, Doug Hansen, Yasuko Namba, Tsewang Samanla, Dorje Morup, Tsewang Samanla, and Tsewang Samanla.Heroic Efforts: The disaster also highlighted acts of heroism and selflessness, as climbers like Beck Weathers and Jon Krakauer survived harrowing ordeals.Media Attention: The disaster received significant media coverage due to the high-profile nature of some of the climbers involved, as well as the dramatic rescues and tragic deaths.(commercial at 8:38)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5080327/advertisement

A planet in Aquila, the eagle, has fallen to its doom. The giant planet appears to have spiraled into its parent star. The star flared up for a few months, gave a little “burp,” then settled back to normal. The exoplanet dinner was discovered in 2020 by telescopes on the ground and in space. Astronomers used bigger telescopes to examine the system in detail. A new analysis of those observations revealed the likely nature of the event. The star is roughly the same mass as the Sun. But it's past the prime of life, so it's puffed up, pushing its surface out toward any planets that might orbit the star. One planet was about the size of Jupiter, the giant of our own solar system. The planet slowed down as it passed through gas and dust expelled by the dying star. Eventually, it slowed enough that it spiraled into the star. That produced a bright outburst. It reached its peak in about 10 days, then faded over the following six months. The outburst also produced an eruption of hot gas, including enough hydrogen to make 33 planets as massive as Earth. Astronomers have seen the aftermath of planetary ingestion in several stars — usually as a “pollution” of heavy elements in the star's outer layers. But this is the first time they've seen it happen — a star gobbling up a planet. The eagle is high in the southeast at nightfall, marked by its brightest star, Altair. You need a big telescope to see the planet-eating star. Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory
