Episode Synopsis

Alone on Everest*. No Oxygen. No Support. No Limits....IN WINTER!Jost Kobusch is redefining the boundaries of human endurance. In the dead of winter, with temperatures plunging to -40°F and winds howling through Everest’s infamous West Ridge, he set out on a nearly impossible mission: to climb Everest solo, without supplemental oxygen, on one of the most dangerous routes in history.Doubted by the world’s top climbers—some giving him just a 0.1% chance of success—Jost pushed higher than any solo winter climber before him, reaching 7,537 meters (24,727 feet). In this exclusive interview, he reveals the mental and physical battle of facing Everest alone, his obsession with testing his limits, and what it truly takes to survive where few dare to go.Send us a text If you've been enjoying the podcast and find value in the content, we'd be incredibly grateful for your support.
