On May 15, 2006, double amputee Mark Inglis reached the summit of Mt. Everest. It was a remarkable achievement, and Inglis was feted by the press and public alike. But only a few days later he was plunged into a storm of controversy when it was learned that he and his teammates had passed an incapacitated climber, Englishman David Sharp, leaving him to a lonely death high in the Death Zone. In 'Dying for Everest', we hear their stories and witness the strange effect Everest has on the rules of survival. And at the end, we are able to judge for ourselves the morality of climbing in the Death Zone.Climbing locations
