Under the glow of séance candles a psychic medium sits trancelike at a table, in front of her is a blank notebook. She begins to write the words of a spirit claiming to be George Mallory  - the mountaineer who disappeared with his partner Sandy Irvine high upon the north face of Everest only months previously:“I am Mallory” the words appear from her pen “I can remember still the struggle for breath….and the awful cold.”Today we’re going to explore something truly otherworldly, the automatic writings of Geraldine Cummins, one of the great spiritual mediums of her time….who between November 1924 and January of 1925 wrote numerous scripts based on visits by George Mallory.When you hear the episode you'll become a believer!Send us a text If you've been enjoying the podcast and find value in the content, we'd be incredibly grateful for your support.

They say that gong to the summit is only halfway. And nowhere was that more true than on May 10, 1996 on Mount Everest. On that day Everest became the stage for one of the most harrowing disasters in mountaineering history. Eight climbers perished in a brutal storm, and as the world tried to make sense of the tragedy, a chilling truth emerged: success on Everest isn't just about reaching the summit—it's about surviving the descent. In Part 2 of our deep dive into the '96 Everest disaster, we uncover the unsettling facts that point to two ambitious guides, Rob Hall and Scott Fischer, whose decisions played a pivotal role in the events that unfolded. The stakes were high, the clock was ticking, and the mountain demanded its toll.IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN PART 1 YET, HERE IS THE LINK:https://youtu.be/_tEe2p9eKgUIndividuals who lost their lives during storm of 1996-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------South/Nepal:Yasuko Namba (client) - JapanRob Hall (owner Adventure Consultants) - New ZealandScott Fischer (owner Mountain madness) - USAAndy Harris (guide) - New ZealandDoug Hansen (client) - USANorth/TibetDorje Morup  (Indo-Tibetan Border Police) - IndiaTsewang Paljor  (Indo-Tibetan Border Police) - IndiaTsewang Samanla  (Indo-Tibetan Border Police) - IndiaKey figures we'll be talking about include:Rob HallScott FischerJon KrakauerAnatoli BoukreevSandy PittmanNeal BeidlemanDavid BreashearsEd ViestursVideos discussed in this video:Anatoli Boukreev's Controversial Actions in the '96 Everest Disasterhttps://youtu.be/NBkgpAGzG4AThe REAL Story of Sandy Pittman's 1996 Everest Tragedy & Fallouthttps://youtu.be/HUDODhCqgbYDecoding Scott Fischer's Role in the 1996 Everest Tragedy https://youtu.be/B2vQX_ItkWEEverest '96 Disaster | Boukreev v.

Scott Fischer's fateful act may have been the clouded ambition that led him to say they were building a yellow brick road to the top of Mount Everest, and days later he was consumed by the very mountain that had propelled him into the world spotlight as one of the strongest mountaineering guides in the world.

May 10, 1996: near the summit of Mount Everest a storm of unimaginable ferocity strikes, claiming the lives of eight climbers and leaving others stranded in a fight for survival. This is the story of one of the most controversial and tragic days in mountaineering history.Among the chaos and controversy, one name stands out: Anatoli Boukreev. His actions that day would spark a heated debate that rages on to this very day. Boukreev's name was brought into prominence in Jon Krakauer's book Into Thin Air, which sold over two million copies in the first couple of years after it was published. Krakauer was critical of Boukreev and his guiding style on the mountain, saying it was irresponsible behavior for a guide.Was Anatoli Boukreev a hero, or was he a villain?

The cult-like mystique of Bus 142 and the story of Chris McCandless is a magnet for millions around the world. In the heart of the mysterious Alaskan wilderness, where nature's beauty and brutality coexist, there once stood a relic, an accidental shrine—a dilapidated bus that had become a symbol of adventure, solitude, and ultimately tragedy.  Bus 142, the infamous 'Magic Bus.' where the intrepid seeker of wisdom and inner peace Christopher McCandless spent 113 days in 1992 before succumbing to starvation, has become a beacon for pilgrims seeking inner wisdom and greater meaning in life.Ultimately, the Alaskan National Guard removed the bus in 2020 to stop the people from coming. But, still, they keep coming!Since the story was immortalized by Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air, there were no less than 15 rescues of people trying to find the bus and two unfortunate deaths. In this video* we details the CULT-LIKE mystique of Bus 142 - the Magic Bus - and Chris McCandless' life and draw parallels to our own lives. Please join our FREE or paid Patreon for exclusive content:https://www.patreon.com/everestmysteryPlease consider becoming a Channel Member for access to perks and to become part of a growing community: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCEk3e_XGyNnqwK2ZlxH7fEA/join*Content assistance by Kind Heart.CONTENT ATTRIBUTIONSAurora Borealis opening footage by Apalapse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJDzh2mVBmsInto the Wild | Exploring the Real Abandoned Bus by MILE30Adventures:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSiOnGt-emsMagic Bus in 1968 by Outdoor Life:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZcuImAzpbtw&t=71sInto The Wild (Bus 142) // Stampede Trail Hike & Packraft!

The 100th Anniversary of the disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine on Mount Everest on 8 June 1924 with Wade Davis, author of Into the Silence: The Great War Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest. If you've ever put someone on a pedestal only to learn of the cracks in their veneer, this video will resonate. At the same time, Wade delves into the brilliance and authenticity of a generation lost in time. "I think he was very insecure," says Wade Davis, who continued "he wanted to be a writer but wasn't good enough....and, he was a real snob."  Of course, that doesn't do justice to the full story of George Mallory's incredible legacy as well as the legacy of the British Everest expeditions of the 1920's.To mark the 100th anniversary of the disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine on Mount Everest on June 8, 1924 we welcome the world's authority on Mallory and the Great War, author of Into The Silence: The Great War, Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest Wade Davis. Wade is an anthropologist and Professor of Anthropology and the BC Leadership Chair in Cultures and Ecosystems at Risk at the University of British Columbia. Between 2000 and 2013 he served as Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society. Named by the NGS as one of the Explorers for the Millennium, he has been described as “a rare combination of scientist, scholar, poet and passionate defender of all of life’s diversity.”The conversation with Wade evolves around Mount Everest, exploring its historical significance, symbolism, and personal experiences of the exceptional climbers. He examines the impact of World War I on Mount Everest expeditions and highlights the legacy of the British Empire. Wade discusses the symbolic value of Mount Everest, including Sir Edmund Hillary's refusal to claim credit for reaching the summit first, as well as the lives and achievements of George Mallory and Oliver Wheeler, who was the man who found the gate to the East Rongbuk Glacier, which was the key to climbing Everest.
