Norwegian climber did not help the dying guide and continued her ascent to the summit of K2

 The girl did not want (could not?) be distracted by the injured Pakistani, because ahead of her was a world record.

Every year climbers die in the mountains, but this fact does not affect the love of climbing. Norwegian climber Kristin Harila climbed 14 eight-thousanders in a record 92 days. A woman in a team with a guide Tenjin Sherpa from Nepal began their ascents in April 2023. In May, the team climbed Everest, and on July 23, the twelfth highest mountain in the world, Broad Peak (Pakistan).

The climber made all her ascents as part of the She Moves Mountains project (“She moves the mountains”), the purpose of which is to change the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bthe capabilities of women. 

On July 27, the Norwegian reached the summit of the last of 14 eight-thousanders - Mount Chogori (K2), in the northern part of Kashmir. It would seem that the world record was set (14 eight-thousanders - in 3 months), but after the ascent the climber was in for an unpleasant surprise. She was accused of not helping a Sherpa who was dying on a mountain path. He pulled the ropes and fell from a height. The Norwegian woman saw the unfortunate, but stepped over him and went further, upstairs. 

However, the champion herself claims that her team did everything possible to help the Sherpa. But her fellow climbers saw footage from the mountain and claim that she simply walked past the body of a dying man.

Austrian climber Wilhelm Stein rebuked the Norwegian: 

"What happened there is a disgrace. A living person was left lying down so that records could be set."

"What happened there is a disgrace. A living person was left lying down so that records could be set."

In the footage taken by the drone, he explained, one person can be seen helping a dying person, while the rest simply continue on their way up. "Although there were Sherpas and mountain guides on site who could take action," at least try to get the unfortunate down. But for this, I would have to give up climbing, and then the Norwegian would not be able to set a world record.

Stein says that if the victim was a European, he probably at least tried to help. 

The Norwegian denies her guilt: "To say that we did nothing would be wrong." 

“Given the conditions, it is difficult to see how he could have been saved. He fell on perhaps the most dangerous part of the mountain, where there is only a narrow path and snow. Harila said that when her team found Hasan, he was not wearing gloves or a down jacket, and besides, he was dying from oxygen starvation. 

However, the death of a Pakistani did not prevent the group from a great celebration on the occasion of their own success. At the same time, the death of a 27-year-old Sherpa became known by chance - none of the climbers who accompanied Harila mentioned this. 

The deceased was not an experienced guide, and not so long ago he began to fix and repair ropes in the mountains. Wilhelm Stein announced a fundraiser for the family of a Pakistani. He is survived by his wife, three children and a diabetic mother. 

Recall that K2 is the second highest after Everest. This mountain is considered one of the most dangerous for climbers, and many who try to get to the top die on the Chogori descent, where the slightest mistake can trigger an avalanche. There are not so many climbers who managed to reach the top - there are only a few hundred in the world.
