Everest: Beyond the Limit takes you along on a treacherous trek up the tallest mountain in the world. Experience one of the most deadly and controversial Mount Everest climbing seasons on record as Discovery Channel follows veteran guide Russell Brice's expedition up the mountain's North Face. The intense and emotional epic follows six climbers as they ascend from base camp at 5,380 metres to the summit at 8,850 metres.

Using cutting-edge technologies, including high-altitude video and small cameras mounted to Sherpas' helmets, as well as old-fashioned human determination, the six-part saga not only puts viewers on the summit of Everest, but also captures the amazing journey of individuals striving to reach an almost impossible goal.

Everest: Beyond the Limit chronicles the struggles and triumphs as people from all walks of life attempt to reach the world's tallest peak during the two-month expedition. This is their chance to fulfil their ambitions but is it
worth the risk?

Meet the men willing to risk death for their dream: to reach the top of the world.

The series centres on expedition leader Russell Brice and six climbers from four different countries – Lebanon, New Zealand, Denmark and the United States. Some of the climbers have extensive climbing experience, while others are novices. The entire expedition included 11 climbers, 24 Sherpas and camp crew, three guides and a 17-member film crew
