#19 - Andrew Lock - Mountaineering & Death Zone Survival
Manage episode 439992927 series 3576829
I’m excited to welcome Australia’s most decorated mountaineer, Andrew Lock, to the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast. 🧗♂️❄️ Andrew is the only Australian to have summited all 14 of the world’s 8000m peaks, including some of the most dangerous mountains like Everest, K2, Annapurna, and Nanga Parbat. Known for his minimalist style—small teams, minimal support, and no bottled oxygen (except on Everest)—Andrew has gained the respect of Himalayan climbers and defied the odds by avoiding frostbite after decades of climbing.
In this episode, we explore Andrew’s toughest challenges, surviving in the "death zone," and how he’s maintained a 50% success rate on 8000m peaks, where the death-to-summit ratio can be as high as one-in-five. 🧠💪
Key Topics:
- High-altitude mountaineering
- Climbing without oxygen
- Surviving in the "death zone"
- Everest, K2, Annapurna, and other dangerous climbs
- Minimalist climbing style and success rates
