The last survivor of a fatal avalanche is helicoptered of k2 one other climbing world's most demanding mountains. Disaster-hit during the descent to the steep gully known as the bottleneck. Eleven people are dead others stranded on the second highest peak in the world. It's that deadliest day in this mountains history.

In June 2008 an international team of Mountaineers set off on a journey to summit K2 armed with video cameras recorded their attempt to conquer the unforgiving mountain. The journey to K2 stretches from Skardu airport in Pakistan onto the Karakoram highway the highest international paved road in the world. After many hours by jeep the road ends in the town of vesco
from there a long walk through deep alleys, narrow paths, and rocky hillsides.
After eight days have treacherous terrain at the far northern end of Pakistan close to the Chinese border surrounded by some of the highest peaks in the world, lies K2.

There are four main camps on the way to the k2 summit. Lower oxygen levels on the mountain mean every climber must stop on their way up to acclimatize to the different altitudes.
The final push to the summit usually starts from camp four weeding through a technically difficult a notorious passage known as a bottleneck. From there a roughly 1,000 foot climb leads to the summit.

Here are some of the interview from this trip.
"The Sun was shining it was brilliant still on the summit but what happened on the way back I still can believe in"

"Leaving a battleground, you're losing a war"

"We were all withering away, we were our slowly dying"
"You couldn't ask for a better day in a million years and only and K2 is a perfect Sunday become a deadly day"

"When I saw K2 for the first time I don't think I've ever been so scared and happy at the same time looking at a mountain. It's just creepy feeling between wanting something and trying to run away from something"

Venice lie in the middle of lagoon. It is not actually the sea, but an expansive shallow waters separated from the sea by thin strip of lands. The lagoon drains and fills up again with new seawater twice a day through the three inlets. The water flows in, the water flows out. Flows in, flows out.

But is Venice an island? It is a cluster of 124 islands, in 631 hectares with 183 canals, which would gradually populated starting in the seventh century AD. Venice did not grow out of a center that expanded over time but out of series of settlements that coalesced into one. The main islands were originally independent settlements that had some characteristic elements in common, a church, a square, one or more rainwater collection well. At least, one canal at the edge of the square. If the canal is not feasible that means it was probably fielded at a later time.
