Rescue on Broad Peak
Video of the rescue of French alpinist Fabien, at 7200m in camp 3 on Broad Peak, Himalaya in 2004. He was not able to walk so he had to be lowered down by others. Climbers from different expedition teams joined forces to bring him down to camp 1 at 5600 meter where he received medical injections and bottled oxygen. When he was 'stabilized' he was lowered down to basecamp, where he was picked up by a helicopter of the Pakistan army the next day.
Respect for all the guys that helped him!

Wild Thing climbed free
On the 26th of November, Jon Simms and Jon Walsh climbed the famous Wild Thing free. This route was opened in 1987, on the East side of Mt. Chephren, Rocky Mountains, Canada.
The two climbed the 1,300-meter mixed climb in a 44-hour round trip. The video shows them on the first pitch.
Alexis Roland
Alexis Roland is a 7 year old girl from Minnesota USA, and she snowboards. And she definitely knows how to handle her board! I'm afraid she kicks my ass in the park.
