Story
Joe Simpson, with just his partner, Simon Yates, tackled the unclimbed West Face of the remote 21,000-foot Siula Grande in the Peruvian Andes in June of 1985. But before they reached the summit, disaster struck. A few days later, Simon staggered into Base Camp, exhausted and frostbitten, to tell their non-climbing companion that Joe was dead. For three days he wrestled with guilt as they prepared to return home. Then a cry in the night took them out with torches, where they found Joe, badly injured.

Story
I've been in this life for 50 years, been trying to work out its riddle for 42, and been keeping diaries of clues to that riddle for the last 35. Notes about successes and failures, joys and sorrows, things that made me marvel and things that made me laugh out loud. How to be fair. How to have less stress. How to have fun. How to hurt people less. How to get hurt less. How to be a good man. How to have meaning in life. How to be more me.

Story
Joe Simpson et Simon Yates, deux jeunes alpinistes britanniques, tentent la première et ambitieuse ascension de la face ouest du Siula Grande dans les Andes du Pérou. Ils atteignent le sommet, mais c'est à la descente que se produit le drame. Dans la tempête, Joe tombe à travers une corniche de neige et se blesse gravement à la jambe. À 6000 mètres, sur cette montagne isolée du monde, il n'a aucune chance de s'en sortir. Il le sent.
