About this listen

In the shadow of the world's highest peak, a daring band of British explorers launches humanity's boldest challenge yet. Led by Brigadier-General Charles Granville Bruce, the 1922 Everest Expedition storms the unforgiving slopes of Mount Everest armed with pioneering bottled oxygen and unbreakable resolve.

George Mallory and his comrades push beyond the limits of human endurance, shattering altitude records by reaching over 27,000 feet—whilst battling howling winds, treacherous ice, and a devastating avalanche that claims brave lives. This gripping firsthand account captures the raw thrill of discovery, the triumph of shattering barriers, and the indomitable spirit that proved the rooftop of the world could one day be conquered. A timeless testament to adventure's call.
