🎥 Have you ever wondered what it’s like to climb the world’s tallest mountain? Well, a brave Chinese filmmaker named Ma Chunlin just did something incredible! He filmed the entire ascent of Mount Qomolangma—also known as Mount Everest—from the north slope in one continuous shot! 🏔️
But this wasn’t easy. Ma had a very short window of just a few weeks to make it happen. He trekked all the way from the Everest Base Camp to the Advanced Base Camp at a whopping 6,500 meters high! That’s higher than many airplanes fly! ✈️
Up there, the air is super thin and it’s freezing cold. 🥶 Ma camped in these extreme conditions, waiting for the perfect moment when the sky was clear, the wind was calm, and the climbers were ready. Everything had to be just right.
He had to start filming at sunrise, down to the exact minute! ⏰ And he had to follow the climbers’ path exactly, without a single mistake in his camera movements.
Five years ago, Ma filmed the climb in parts, but his big dream was to capture it all in one go. And guess what? He did it! 🎉
So grab some popcorn, turn up your brightness, and imagine watching this breathtaking journey to the top of the world—all in one shot! 🌟
