[Machine Translation] The long-awaited second installment of the masterpiece mountain documentary! Four years after his accident in "The Sail of Destiny", Joe Simpson underwent six surgeries and returned to life to climb the Eiger North Face in Switzerland, where he had never seen the light of day. Another "true story" that thrilled and moved the world, this 2008 Emmy Award-winning documentary recounts the 1936 Tony Kurz disaster on the Eiger North Face. --After his accident in the Peruvian Andes, Joe underwent six surgeries and was in a cast for nine months, and was said to be unable to walk, but he made a miraculous comeback after undergoing rigorous rehabilitation. His passion for the mountains has never left him, and he is determined to "take on any challenge." He sets out to find out the mystery of the last days of legendary climber Tony Kurtz, whom he admires, and to climb a huge precipice. The Eiger North Face in Switzerland, known as the "mass of delusion" among mountaineers because of its extreme difficulty and danger, is the highest peak in the Alps. The climber's own epic past and his experiences overlap as he takes the same route to climb the 1800-meter-high vertical rock face, the "Bark of Death," a large ice field that never sees the light of day, and numerous other difficult places....
