“Thanks for recreating the most harrowing mountaineering tale of all time on your channel. I’d already seen the movies and read all three books multiple times, including listening to Krakauer’s own tortured reading of Into Thin Air.
My one nitpick is about pronunciation:
- Lohtse rhymes with BOAT-see
- Lopsang rhymes with HOP-song
- Khumbu rhymes with ZOOM-boo
- Beidleman rhymes with IDLE-min
- Watney rhymes with COT-knee
Congrats on knowing that “cwm” is pronounced KOOM!
Anyway, keep the good work.”
