The Fatal Game background

The Fatal Game

A New Zealand mountaineer and his partner achieved a historic feat by reaching the summit of Mt Everest in 1994, but one of them was faced with a crucial decision after a physically demanding night on the mountain.

Mark Whetu's 1994 Mt Everest climb took a devastating turn when he and his partner Mike Reinberger reached the summit late in the day. Forced to make a heart-wrenching choice, Whetu was left with the unbearable decision to abandon Reinberger or remain with him on the mountain forever.
