Latok I: 6 días solo en la pared más temida del Karakórum | Alexander Gukov y Sergey Glazunov

At 6,200 meters, Alexander Gukov was trapped on a tiny ledge on Latok I, without food, with no clear way out, and with time running out. For six days, the Russian mountaineer waited on the north face of one of the most feared mountains in the Karakoram, while the world tried to organize a rescue that seemed impossible. In this episode of Unusual Chronicles, we travel to Pakistan to reconstruct the tragedy and the miracle of Latok I in 2018: the expedition of Alexander Gukov and Sergey Glazunov, the legendary north ridge, the failed attempts over more than 40 years, and a helicopter rescue operation pushed to the limits of human possibility. A true story of extreme mountaineering, survival, fear, loss, and hope on a mountain where every decision could be life-or-death. If you are passionate about true stories of mountaineering, survival, mystery, and adventure, subscribe to the channel and join us on the next expedition.
