A death defying tale September 19, 2008
Foxylock (Ireland)
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
Eleven people died on Everest in 2006,Lincoln Hall was a whisker away from being the twelfth.In fact he maintains that he did die near the summit.At the age of 50 and on his second attempt Lincoln Hall conquered Everest, tragically his fortunes took a nasty turn when he succumbed to altitude sickness,despite a mammoth effort to revive him by two sherpas Lincoln was pronounced dead.The devastating news was relayed to his family and friends leaving the climbing community numb with shock.There the story should end but not this one next morning Hall was found alive and sitting cross legged on the summit ridge delirious but functional.Queue one of the most dramatic rescues of mountaineering history.
This is both a thrilling and touching story,a man that went to the edge peered over it and came back to tell the tale.Inspirational in the extreme.Read it!!!
