Dead Lucky: Life After Death on Mount Everest Tapa dura - 2008
de Lincoln Hall
The amazing story of Australian mountain climberLincoln Hall's rescue following a night spent near thesummit of Mount Everest, where he had been left fordead by the other members of his expedition.
Lincoln Hall likes to say that on the evening of May 25,2006, he died on Everest. Indeed, he attempted to climbthe mountain during a deadly season in which elevenpeople perished. And Hall, in fact, was pronounced dead, aftercollapsing from altitude sickness. Two Sherpas spent hours tryingto revive him, but, as darkness fell, word came via radio fromthe exhibition's leader that the Sherpas should descend themountain in order to save themselves.
The news of Lincoln Hall's death traveled rapidly frommountaineering websites to news media around the world, andultimately to his family back in Australia. Early the next morning,however, an American guide, climbing with two clients anda Sherpa, was startled to find Hall, sitting cross-legged on thesummit ridge, just staring at them.
As featured in the Emmy-nominated Dateline NBC documentary'Miracle on Mount Everest,' Dead Lucky is LincolnHall's account of this miraculous night atop Everest and thedays and nights that led up to and followed this fascinatingexpedition. Hall had been part of Australia's first attempt toclimb to the top of the mountain in 1984, but, he had not doneany serious climbing for many years, having set aside his passionin order to support his family. Hall was forced to turn back dueto illness in 1984 so his triumph in reaching the summit at theage of fifty is a story unto itself. Not since Into Thin Air has therebeen such a thrilling Everest story. Dead Lucky is a page-turnerfrom beginning to end.
