Three climbers, one of whom was severely injured in a prior climb (and is risking brain injury due to blood deprivation by making this climb) attempt the Shark’s Fin on Mount Meru. Some of the world’s best climbers had attempted to climb the Shark’s Fin and all of them had failed.

There isn’t a film crew in the world with the skills to climb alongside these three to do the filming, so the climbers had to do their own filming when they were up on the Shark’s Fin. That is remarkable in and of itself.

This movie is for anyone who is inspired by the human spirit, by remarkable achievements, by incredible determination, and by bold human endeavors against difficult and dangerous odds.

This movie is for outdoor photographers. The cinematography is stunning and the time lapse photography is amazing.

This movie is for climbers.

TVMA: Adult Language, Adult Content. The “adult content” tag refers to the awful things that happen to climbers who can sustain gruesome injuries and come close to death. So this documentary is not suitable for children. Climbers don’t use nice language when things go terribly wrong.
