00:00Did you know that K2, the second-highest mountain in the world, is often called the Savage Mountain?
00:06Why? Well, it's notorious for being one of the most difficult peaks to climb, with a death rate of around 25% for summit attempts.
00:13That's right. One in four climbers doesn't make it back. And here's a kicker. The first successful ascent was only achieved in
00:221954, decades after Everest was conquered.
00:25But wait, it gets spicier! K2 is so remote that it has no permanent weather stations,
00:31so climbers have to rely on luck and a good weather app.
00:35Who knew climbing could be such a gamble?
