Savage Mountain,|Killer Mountain!
Half the people who go to K2|dont come back!
Cindy!
Youre gonna blow everything,|your career, your family...
just so guess who can use you|as his stooge again.
I am not his stooge! Cindy,|when I stand on top of a mountain...
and it s taken all my strength|and all my courage to get there...
just for one second,|one second...
I feel the truth of my life.
I have to have that, okay?
And not for Taylor, for me.
Me, me, me!
Cindy, Cindy!|I am not gonna die.
I love you, I love Eric.
Im gonna do this thing and|when I come back, I promise...
We wont be here|when you get back.
I see. You or the mountain,|is that it?
Well, Im gonna have both.
-No, youre not.|-Yes, I am.
You cant.
Yes, I can.
Im sorry.
Im sorry.
-Promise me youll come back, H.|-I promise.
Sign here.
All right, next.
-He says no problem.|-Ask him for his assurance...
...that this deal is going to stick.|-That wont be necessary.
Every expedition that s come through|here has had problems with porters.
-There wont be any problems.|-Tell them thered better not be.
Well use the 8 mm for fixed rope up|to Camp 4 and 6 mm on higher stages.
Theyre heavy enough? The Poles|used 9 mm all the way to the top.
Well, they had twice|as many climbers as we do.
To me, the six mill just doesnt feel|like it s gonna take the weight.
Theres no weight to take|if we do it without fix ropes.
-Dont be ridiculous.|-Getting blown off the mountain...
for 70 days laying ropes,|that s ridiculous.
Weve got every angle figured. Weve|planned this trip for over a year.
The Poles probably planned it all|their lives. Three of them got killed.
And none of them|made the summit.
Fast an loose|is not the way to climb K2.
Taylor, listen to Dallas, will you?
Hes the best expedition|organizer in the States.
If I had known that Id have had him|come over and pack my bags for me.
Thank you.
It must be that time|of the month, huh, Dallas?
lll sleep tonight, lll tell you that.
Acclimatizing all right?
Is it good news or bad news|when you bleed from your ears?
Good news.
Ready.
Cheese.
Looks like somebody is hurt.
This guy looks like Helmut.
-Guten tag. Helmut Steiner.|-Phillip Claiborne. How do you do?
Were just from the Mustagh Tower.|The weather was very bad.
We had to leave|everything behind.
It s the ice season.|Ive never known such bad storms.
Im sorry, do you have|any food you could spare?
-Yes, of course!|-That mans dead.
Her brother too,|but she doesnt believe it.
They were climbing on Paryu.
We tried to bury him,|but she doesnt allow it.
It was very bad.
A Japanese team has arrived in Skardu|and theyre paying 6 dollars a day.
A deal is a deal. You dont|renegotiate when you feel like it.
You people have|a bad reputation for this.
Most of the cash you people earn|is from climbing parties.
Maybe you should think about|what happens if we stop coming.
F***ing a**hole.
I hope you do stop coming.
US$ 6,5 a day or no one goes.
Only my husband...|he hurt his foot.
He didnt treat it|and the result was this.
What the hell are you doing?
-Were talking.|-Talking my ass!
Shes still in shock,|she needs somebody to talk to.
Nothings changed, huh? You want|something you just take it, right?
She was telling me about her husband.|What s your problem, anyway?
-You know shes pregnant?|-So?
So pregnant widows,|is that your thing now?
My thing is to climb this mountain.
-Your way, my way, I dont give a sh*t!|-I think we got that part.
Are you gonna whip your ass|or do you want me to do it.
Alright! Knock it off!|What are you guys doing?
Taylor, come here, look at this!
Isnt it beautiful?
Course it s beautiful. Did you think|Id take you to an ugly mountain?
Get it! Yeah!
Mr. Claiborne!|Mr. Claiborne!
-They want to rest.|-For how long?
-For the rest of the day.|-Are you serious?
-What the hell is going on?|-They wanna make camp here.
-That s bullshit!|-Weve only been going two hours.
They say it s too dangerous because|the fresh snow hides the crevasses.
-What will camping here prove?|-They get an extra days pay.
Were going to Base Camp tonight.|Otherwise no one gets paid.
-They wont move, Mr. Claiborne.|-Well see about that.
I hold you personally responsible|for this, do you understand?
It s not my responsibility,|it s between you and the porters.
Here! Look at this!
Hey, what are you doing?
-Stop!|-Here! Here!
If they dont want the money|we agreed upon, lll burn it all.
You tell them that!
-You must not do this.|-Hes right, Taylor.
Do you think it s right they make|a deal and pull this sh*t everyday?
You cannot negotiate with them by|destroying what they do not have.
-Watch me!|-Listen!
This money will feed one of the|families for a month, at least.
Mr. Claiborne, stop him!|This is against the law!
Taylor, that s enough.
Malik, listen. Tell them that every|man who finishes the trip with us...
will get an extra 50 rupees per day|for this part of the glacier.
-This section only, is that clear?|-It s not the money, Mr. Claiborne.
They will do it.
They will do it. Bastards!
Congratulations.
I think lll nominate you as|Ambassador to Pakistan.
-Im really sorry about this morning.|-Never mind, Harold.
I really thought they|were innocent, you know?
You know, they made a fool of me,|the bastards.
-I think Taylor overreacted a bit.|-I appreciate that.
Hold on!
Get the rope!
Hang on it!
Clean it.
-Are you all right?|-Yes, thanks.
Good work, guys.
-Are you okay?|-Yeah, you?
-Thank you, Harold.|-That was nothing, forget it.
So how does it feel|to be the team hero?
Better than being|the team a**hole, I guess.
-What s that supposed to mean?|-You know what it means.
No, I dont.
This whole deal with the porters.
You know you burned their money?|I just dont understand.
I didnt make the world|the way it is, Harold.
Im just trying to get through it|as fast and as clean as possible.
We all make the world the way it is.
Yeah, well, we know who made this.
-Do up the tent.|-You do it.
Do you do this every day?
Yes. Every day.
Taylor! Taylor!
-What s going on?|-The men are leaving, going home.
-Why?|-Theyre scared.
-Tell them were 4 h from Base Camp.|-Im trying to do that!
Stay, stay!
Stay!
Were almost there.|Look! Look!
Come on, goddammit!|Are we climbing or what?
What? Answer me, you|son of a b*tch! Answer me!
Goddammit!|Dont stop me, dammit!
Leave it!
-What the hell is going on?|-We just lost the porters.
What are we going to do now?
F*** them. We dont need them.|Well take it up ourselves.
Seven tons? When do you want to do|it, before or after you get dressed?
What s the matter with you? I thought|you had a plan for everything.
Im talking about time! It ll take|weeks to take this up the mountains!
Hes right. Well be cutting it short|with the weather this late in season.
Exactly. That s why we take what|we need and leave all this other sh*t.
Then guys, why dont we just f***|and quit? Why dont we just give up?
