He Tried to Ski K2. One Step Cost His Life

It was August 6, 2010, and Fredrik Ericsson had no idea it would be his last day on Earth. Imagine standing at 27,000 feet above sea level on K2, the world’s second-highest mountain. The air is so thin that your lungs burn with each breath. The temperature hovers around negative 40 degrees. Your brain is swelling from oxygen deprivation. Your blood is thickening to the consistency of ketchup. And you're staring down a near-vertical ice corridor with a massive, unstable glacier hanging directly above your head. You click into a pair of ski bindings and point those skis downhill in that crazy, dangerous terrain.. Where a tiny mistake is the difference between life and death. Today, I'm covering one of the most ambitious and fatal mountain attempts in human history - the story of a man who tried to ski down a mountain so dangerous it kills one in every four people who simply try to climb it. The chain of fateful choices that led him to that moment, and the shocking outcome that nobody saw coming. What I discovered about Fredrik's final decision will make you question everything you thought you knew about risk. Welcome to the extreme edge. --------------------------------------------------------------- VIDEO CHAPTERS: 00:00:00 - Who Was Fredrik Ericsson?
