Annapurna's most terrifying disasters: 6 stories from the death zone

While Everest may be the tallest mountain in the world, Annapurna holds a more grim record. It has the highest death rate per climb attempt, making it an even more formidable challenge. Over 300 climbers have attempted its peak, but tragically, nearly one in four have not returned. Today, we'll explore the six most catastrophic incidents that have occurred on these perilous slopes. From record-breaking ascents gone wrong to entire teams lost to the mountain's unforgiving conditions, each story is as terrifying as they are tragic. As always, viewer discretion is advised. ----------------------------------------------------------- Thanks for watching!
