Buried in the Sky: The Extraordinary Story of the Sherpa Climbers on K2's Deadliest Day , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 432min
When Edmund Hillary first conquered Mt. Everest, Sherpa Tenzing Norgay was at his side. Indeed, for as long as Westerners have been climbing the Himalaya, Sherpas have been the unsung heroes in the background. In August 2008, when eleven climbers lost their lives on K2, the world’s most dangerous peak, two Sherpas survived. They had emerged from poverty and political turmoil to become two of the most skillful mountaineers on earth. Based on unprecedented access and interviews, Buried in the Sky reveals their astonishing story for the first time. Peter Zuckerman and Amanda Padoan explore the intersecting lives of Chhiring Dorje Sherpa and Pasang Lama, following them from their villages high in the Himalaya to the slums of Kathmandu, across the glaciers of Pakistan to K2 Base Camp. When disaster strikes in the Death Zone, Chhiring finds Pasang stranded on an ice wall, without an axe, waiting to die. The rescue that follows has become the stuff of mountaineering legend. At once a gripping, white-knuckled adventure and a rich exploration of Sherpa customs and culture, Buried in the Sky re-creates one of the most dramatic catastrophes in alpine history from a fascinating new perspective. ungekürzt.

Why Not?: Life Stories of Amazing Achievers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 246min
Welcome to the real world, where superheroes live. They are no different from us - confronted with life's turmoils and challenges. Like the young performer in The Music Weaver, whose heart tugs him to leave his cushy life behind for exciting but uncertain possibilities. The mountain porter in The Determined Dreamer, who can't control his yearning for something bigger, better, and greater. The number-whiz in The Mathemagician, who outshines his teachers, even though he fails his high school exams. The aspiring pace-bowler in The Game Changer, whose talent, passion, and dedication are dismissed as an impossible dream. The US-educated engineer in The White Knight, who returns to India with stars in his eyes but lands his first job in a dusty small town in the middle of nowhere. Pandit Ravi Shankar, the sitarist who introduced Indian classical music to the world. Tenzing Norgay, the first climber to conquer Mount Everest, with Edmund Hillary. Srinivasa Ramanujan, the one-of-a-kind mathematical genius. Kapil Dev, India's greatest fast bowler and all-rounder. Dr. Verghese Kurien, father of India's milk revolution. These heroes do not share dreams or circumstances. Yet they have one thing in common. They do not look at what is and ask why. Instead, they imagine how they want things to be and ask why not? Hear about the lives of these five real-life heroes and challenge yourself with "why not?" just like them. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Kiran Rathod.
