Video Discription |
“Initially, I only remembered how cold I felt after the fall- but when I recovered the footage from my GoPro, my memories really started flooding back. A few days after the accident, trapped with no food or water, I recorded a final goodbye to the world- my last message to my family before I surrendered fully. I told the mountain that I had done everything in my power to survive, and now it was for her to decide if I lived or not. 15 hours later, I was rescued. The mountain might have trapped me, but it also kept me safe, maybe that’s why we call it, Maa Annapurna.''
For every 3 people that climb Mt. Annapurna, 1 will never return. This is the story of Anurag Maloo- the man who spent 72 hours presumed dead, only to become the exception to this rule and survive the mountain’s icy depths against all odds.
On a mission for the UN to summit Mt. Annapurna, Maloo fell into an icy crevasse where he remained alone, trapped and knocking on death’s door for 3 days. He recounts his experience, the mindset that helped him endure it all, and the unlikely circumstances that saved him.
In a masterclass on the indomitable power of the human spirit, Maloo breaks down his best strategies for keeping hope when all feels lost, learning how to face death head on and overcoming the impossible.
In this episode of FITTR presents Realign, go on a journey of hope as Maloo recounts his journey. From his final message to the world in his darkest moment, to his brother’s fight to keep him alive with over 4 hours of CPR, This is a tale of resilience, miracles and unwavering faith.
