I implore you to actually take the time and think about the concept of climbing Mouth Everest. Imagine the possibility of falling rocks or ice, the extreme temperature, breathing thinner air, lack of medical care, and all the other things that make rock climbing a generally bad idea. Never-mind the fact you will probably never be on the same level as the Sherpa people of Tibet who are renowned for their mountaineering skill. Oh, and let’s not forget that you have family members who love you. Alright, now that we have that out of the way, let me introduce you to the trailer for Everest. A climbing expedition goes bad after a severe snow storm decides “hard difficulty” mode isn’t good enough.
Everest is directed by Baltasar Kormakur and stars Jake Gyllenhaal and Keira Knightley. It comes to U.S. theaters September 18th 2015 and U.K. theatres September 25th 2015. For a full list of release dates, click here.
