He accidentally unclipped his SAFETY LINE and FELL into the ABYSS — another tragedy on K2

The winter season of 2021 on K2 went down in history as the “black season.” The mountain claimed the lives of several of the world’s strongest alpinists, and at the center of this chain of tragedies was the death of Bulgarian climber Atanas Skatov. A scientist-entomologist, a vegan, a national record holder, and a hero in his home country, he was pushing toward the goal of all fourteen eight-thousanders at an alarming pace—until he became trapped between overcrowded camps, exhaustion, and systemic failures within the expedition. In this video, we analyze in detail what happened on the slopes of K2: a night without water or rest at Camp III, the decision to descend, the fatal mistake on the Black Pyramid, and the myth of the broken rope. This is not just a story of human error, but a portrait of how commercial alpinism, logistics, and ambition can converge into a perfect storm where neither experience nor a cautious decision guarantees survival.
