Thank you for watching.
Five young friends, dreaming of a European expedition, attempted a winter climb on Mt. Daisen. Behind the beautiful ice walls lay the unimaginable force of nature... A sudden storm blew, and the friends one after another slipped from the swaying ropes. A desperate decision was made. Miracle or despair? Feelings tangled on the brink of life and death.

Mountaineering accidents painfully remind us of the harshness of nature, the limits of humankind, and the danger of misjudgment.

Please understand that this video contains fictional content to emphasize the dangers of mountain accidents.
Advance preparation is essential; don't "think about it after you get to the mountains."

We hope this video will remind you of safe climbing and help prevent accidents.

▼ Lessons to learn from this video

1. Don't underestimate the dangers of wind.
Mountain weather can change suddenly, and wind, in particular, can be a direct cause of falls and accidents.
Even if the forecast calls for clear skies, always check wind speed and direction. If winds exceeding 20 m/s are predicted, you must make the decision to cancel or modify the climb.

2. Thoroughly check the equipment and skills of all team members.

When operating in strong winds or on steep slopes, belay techniques and the use of crampons and ice axes can mean the difference between life and death.

If there are differences in individual skills, team-wide training and role assignment are essential.

3. Plan your climb, including the decision to retreat.

The desire to climb can sometimes cloud your judgment.

It is important for all team members to understand that the goal of climbing is not to reach the summit, but to return home safely.

4. Carry satellite communication devices.

In the event of an accident outside of cell phone coverage, a quick SOS can mean the difference between life and death.

Carrying emergency contact devices such as the Garmin inReach Mini 2 and sharing how to use them should be considered standard equipment for future climbs.

5. Always prepare for the worst in nature.
No matter how experienced you are, nature is unpredictable.
It's better to be "overprepared." Frequently reviewing the situation and assuming the worst-case scenario while on the move will save your life.
