I have already wacth many movie about traveling, read article
that says movie about traveling backpacking , and camping. But i never read or
see people talk about climbing or hiking, so in this day i whan to tell you some movie about climbing or hiking. In this list was the best movie that i have been
wacth all the time, i make list based on imdb rating so lets began.
1. Meru (2015)
7.7 Imdb
In 2008, Conrad Anker
and Jimmy Chin, two of the world’s strongest climbers, partnered up with
relative newcomer Renan Ozturk to tackle the Shark’s Fin on Meru, a 21,000-foot
knife edge balanced on a mix of technical rock slabs, snow and rotten ice in
northern India.
It had never been
summited before, and their attempt went about as badly as it could: they ran
out of food, suffered frostbite, and were forced to turn back just 100 meters
from the summit. Despite the damage, Anker, now 52, spent the following three
years “possessed” by the Shark’s Fin. Not even a traumatic brain injury Ozturk
sustained backcountry skiing or an avalanche that almost killed Chin on the
same project could stop them.
2. North
Face (2008) 7.4 Imdb
Based on a true story, North Face is a suspenseful adventure film about
a competition to climb the most dangerous rock face in the Alps. Set in 1936,
as Nazi propaganda urges the nation’s Alpinists to conquer the unclimbed north
face of the Swiss massif – the Eiger – two reluctant German climbers begin
their daring ascent.
3. The Wildest Dream : Conquest of Everest (2010) 7.3 Imdb
In 1999, the top
American mountaineer Conrad Anker discovered the body of George Mallory on
Everest. Mallory and his young climbing partner, Sandy Irvine, disappeared in
1924, last spotted just 800 metres from the peak. The enduring mystery is
whether they were going up or coming down (which would place them at the summit
30 years before Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary).
In this National Geographic
documentary Anker goes back to Everest to retrace Mallory's expedition. With
the exception of some TV-duff recreations and CSI-style razzle-dazzle it is
fascinating. What drives men and women to risk snow blindness, frostbite,
(there is a gruesome story of a man coughing up a bit of frozen larynx) and a
good chance of death on Everest? Mallory's famous answer was, of course:
"Because it's there.
4. Everest
(2015) 7.1 Imdb
On the morning of May 10,
1996, climbers (Jason Clarke, Josh Brolin) from two expeditions start their
final ascent toward the summit of Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth.
With little warning, a violent storm strikes the mountain, engulfing the
adventurers in one of the fiercest blizzards ever encountered by man.
Challenged by the harshest conditions imaginable, the teams must endure
blistering winds and freezing temperatures in an epic battle to survive against
nearly impossible odds.
5. The
Himalayas (2015) 6.4 Imdb
Following a grueling
climb up Kanchenjunga, Hong-gil and Mu-taek become fast friends and partners in
climb. The peak of their professional careers comes when they become the 14th
team to scale the Himalayas. But the climb came at a price: both sustained injuries
and Hong-gil was compelled to retire. Years later, Hong-gil is a renowned
lecturer and Mu-taek takes up an assignment to go up Everest. When Hong-gil
learns that Mu-taek has gone missing, he blames himself for encouraging the
younger man’s plans. Looking at a photo of Mu-taek’s frozen corpse still
trapped on the mountain, he decides to put together a rescue team to retrieve
the body. Despite warnings, concerns over his injured leg and treacherous
storms, Hong-gil leads the expedition.
