        K2: The Impossible Descent - VIDEO

        On July 22 2018, a Polish man by the name of Andrzej Bargiel pushed the limit of what's possible on skis. He summited K2, the second highest peak in the world which stands at 8,611m, and then he skied from peak to base without removing his skis, all without supplemental oxygen.

        A full length film of the extraordinary feat is available on redbull.com, but I've included the trailer below if you don't currently have time to have your mind blown. Enjoy!
