[24] Wilco van Rooijen is one of only a few people to survive two days above the 8000m "Death Zone". The men were tangled in several ropes and had clearly been hanging there, some upside down and bloodied, through the night, but all alive. Consequently, he survived the avalanche, as did Gyalje and Confortola at the bottom of the Bottleneck. It was later determined that McDonnell had freed them. They were joined by Jehan Baig, a HAP from the French team, who had fulfilled his assisting duties and had been allowed to head down. Twee jaar eerder had Van Rooijen ook al een poging gedaan (met paraglider om ervanaf te vliegen), maar hij keerde toen op ruim 8000 m vanwege slecht weer om. Sträng then decided to descend without Mandić's body. He may have also misidentified a body, later thought to be that of another climber, as McDonnell's. He lost his balance and fell, bumping into Skog. Uiteindelijk moest hij hierdoor al zijn tenen missen. According to team Norit's Dutch mountaineer Wilco van Rooijen, panic broke out among the climbers waiting above the Bottleneck. The death toll had now risen to 11.

Graham Bowley, in his book No Way Down (2010),[22] is unable to refute the evidence presented by van Rooijen but still deems the photos inconclusive at best. [4] However, two climbers died on the way up to the top prior to the avalanche. Sträng also noticed that Baig was incoherent, first offering to help in the rescue, later refusing to help, then returning moments later to assist them again. It could be that this was the event Confortola had witnessed during the bivouac the previous night, while it could also be that this was the second object Tsering Bhote and "Big" Pasang Bhote saw falling off the mountain—there is little direct evidence to clearly confirm either possibility.

[2] Van Rooijen daalde met zijn teammaat Cas van de Gevel op eigen kracht terug naar het basiskamp alwaar derdegraads bevriezingsverschijnselen aan zijn tenen werden geconstateerd. Mandić, however, fell over 100 m (328 feet) down the Bottleneck. Failed to sign in!

[4], K2 is the second-highest mountain on Earth, after Mount Everest, with a peak elevation of 8,611 metres (28,251 ft). [citation needed] The existence of multiple plausible scenarios underscores the uncertainty, even among eyewitnesses, pertaining to the course of events on K2 that day. D'Aubarede had run out of bottled oxygen hours before, and when van de Gevel had passed him, he had looked tired and insisted van de Gevel descend before him. As a result of the serac's fall, the descent through the Bottleneck became more technical. Tsering Bhote, from his position at the base of the Bottleneck, has also claimed to have seen a serac fall strike the rescue party as they were descending near the top of the Bottleneck.[21]. [2][3] Some of the specific details remain uncertain, with different plausible scenarios having been given about different climbers' timing and actions, when reported later via survivors' eyewitness accounts or via radio communications of climbers who died (sometimes minutes) later in the course of events on K2 that day. Wilco van Rooijen (Utrecht, 25 november 1967) is een bergbeklimmer, die in de Nederlandse klimsport vooral bekend is door de ontberingen, die hij in 2008 op de K2 heeft doorstaan. Password The most experienced HAP, Shaheen Baig, had to go back down with symptoms of high altitude sickness. Confortola and McDonnell did not follow him immediately. [17] Some tried to descend in the darkness, while others decided to bivouac and wait until morning before descending. Please check your credentials and try again. Tsering Bhote, who had climbed more slowly than fellow rescuer "Big" Pasang Bhote, had not yet reached the top of the Bottleneck. In the book Buried in the Sky (2012), Amanda Padoan and Peter Zuckerman examine much more closely the Sherpa and HAP experiences of the 2008 disaster, and present plausible alternative scenarios and explanations of the events, including the possibility that McDonnell and Karim were still alive at the time of the fourth serac fall. Members of the Norwegian group – including Lars Flatø Nessa and Skog, who had both summitted two hours after Zerain – had almost navigated the traverse leading to the Bottleneck, when a serac (a large block of glacial ice) broke off from above. Wilco den Breejen. This climber was probably D'Aubarede, whom van de Gevel had passed just above the Bottleneck in the dark. [citation needed], There were no summits in 2009 and 2010, during which the renowned skier Fredrik Ericsson fell to his death in the Bottleneck. Hij bereikte op eigen kracht zowel de geografische Noord- als de Zuidpool. [26] Pakistani authorities released a list of names of those killed and injured. It swept away the four men.

The 2008 K2 disaster occurred on 1 August 2008, when 11 mountaineers from international expeditions died on K2, the second-highest mountain on Earth. Left alone, Confortola did all he could for Jumik Bhote, giving him his own equipment. He had climbed down a new route to the left of the Česen route, bypassing Camp IV. [4] Among the dead were people from France, Ireland, Korea, Nepal, Norway, Pakistan, and Serbia. In his book Surviving K2, van Rooijen provides some photographs he believes support these claims. At this point, Eric Meyer and Fredrik Sträng of the American group decided to abort the attempt and return to Camp IV,[8] due to both the high probability of reaching the summit late, and the high exposure to ice fall in the crowded Bottleneck. Van Rooijen handed Jumik Bhote his spare pair of gloves but was unable to help them any more. Baig lost his footing and bumped into Sträng, who then urged him to let go of the rope attached to Mandić's harness, before all four climbers would be dragged down. There was one other climber still unaccounted for: D’Aubarede's HAP, Meherban Karim. Op die manier zorgen wij er samen met jou voor dat jouw interieur een uniek en persoonlijk karakter krijgt. Bekijken Offerte. Another possible explanation of the mystery is an error in "Big" Pasang Bhote's observations about the colour of the suit, meaning the last climber could have been Karim, who was wearing a pure red down suit. The group included Sherpas Tsering Bhote and "Big" Pasang Bhote, who had previously helped Go Mi-Young down the Bottleneck; they now went to search for their relative Jumik Bhote, who had been stranded with the remaining climbers of the Korean expedition somewhere above the Bottleneck. The men had climbed up around midnight without food or oxygen, and found Go Mi-Young stranded somewhere in the Bottleneck, unsure of which route she had to take. [5] It is regarded by mountaineers as far more challenging than Everest, and is statistically the second most dangerous mountain in the world in terms of fatality per summit.[6]. In the rubble of this avalanche, he spotted the remains of one climber. Again, van Rooijen provides photographic evidence: what looks like a climber can be seen above the serac field on the morning of 2 August. Wilco van Rooijen sagte nach dem Unglück: „Als wir uns auf den Weg zum Gipfel machten, ging auf einmal alles schief.“ Zwei Mitglieder der Wegbaugruppe, die gegen Mitternacht vorausklettern sollten, um die Fixseile durch die Flaschenhals-Rinne und die folgende Traverse zu montieren, zeigten Anzeichen von Höhenkrankheit und mussten absteigen. You art!. Confortola and McDonnell reached the Korean group later in the morning and worked for several hours trying to free them. In a later photo, the figure seems to have disappeared, and there is a trail leading down the seracs. These delays, together with the traffic jam in the Bottleneck, resulted in most climbers reaching the summit much later than planned, some as late as 8:00 p.m., well outside the typical time for summitting of 3:00 to 5:00 p.m. All together, 18 people summited that day, though eight (plus one who stopped near the summit) would not survive the lengthy descent. Wilco van Rooijen is de eerste en enige Nederlander die op eigen kracht en zonder extra zuurstof, de Seven Summits en de Three Poles bereikte (de zeven hoogste toppen op elk continent en de Noordpool, Zuidpool en de hoogste pool, de Mount Everest).

He and D’Aubarede must have gotten separated in the dark, as van de Gevel encountered only D’Aubarede above the Bottleneck. It is unclear why he did not try to stop his slide. Baig finally let go of the rope, but to Sträng's and the others' surprise, he did not try to stop his slide by using the self-arrest technique, which has about a 50% chance of arresting a fall, and Baig fell to his death. Hieronder een selectie van door Van Rooijen beklommen bergen. K2 is part of the Karakoram range, not far from the Himalayas, and is located on the border between the Pakistani Gilgit-Baltistan region, and China's Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County of Xinjiang Autonomous Region.

He claims Jumik Bhote informed him a rescue mission was under way from Camp IV. In his initial interview at Milan Airport, he stated that he had freed the Korean climbers. Confortola, having spent at least three hours with the entangled men, was exhausted and chose to continue down. [32], One of the three Koreans either died during the incident that caused their original fall and tangled the ropes, or the morning after before the others were freed.

Mendy Drabbe. Hence, it may have been Karim's remains Confortola had found earlier in the avalanche rubble. He might even have actually caused one of the serac falls. Part of the reason Confortola's version of events were believed early on was because he was first to speak to the media. Karim was last seen returning from the summit with D’Aubarede, in the later hours of 1 August. [1] Hij heeft zonder daarbij extra zuurstof te gebruiken, de Mount Everest beklommen. T 023 561 33 29. It is unclear what happened next. His vision was deteriorating and he feared he was going snow blind, requiring him to get off the mountain quickly. Confortola assumed McDonnell had succumbed to high-altitude sickness and was growing delusional, believing he had to climb back up. The high risk of falling ice and avalanches means climbers aim to minimize time spent there. Chris Klinke pushed on for a few more hours before abandoning the ascent,[9] as did Jelle Staleman of the Norit team, who was also suffering frozen feet. [20], Confortola stated that some time after he left the three men, an avalanche struck just feet away from him. [12] She was still clipped to the rope and was merely knocked over. In regards to the night before, Confortola stated that he and McDonnell saw climbers being swept away, and they decided to bivouac until morning. [44], According to AdventureStats, the last 17 fatalities on K2 have all occurred in, around, or above the Bottleneck, once again proving the deadly nature of K2's upper slopes. [citation needed], Meanwhile, team Norit's Cas van de Gevel and the French team's Hugues D’Aubarede had each decided to manoeuvre the Bottleneck in the dark. [27] Confortola was evacuated by helicopter the following day. They rescued two injured and frostbitten Dutch climbers from the base camp, located approximately 5,000 metres (16,400 ft) above sea level. He said Rooijen joined them later. Wilco van Rooijen.

[13], When Sträng reached the body, Serbian climbers Predrag Zagorac and Iso Planić, along with their HAP Mohammed Hussein, had already arrived.
