First Ascent
2006 · Documentary · 90 min. · United States
"First Ascent" is unlike any mountain climbing film you've ever seen. Join Swiss climber Didier Berthod as he attempts the impossible - to become the first man ever to climb the insanely treacherous "Cobra Crack"! Will he succeed or will he die trying? Your guess is as good as ours! Filmed on location in Thailand, the Himalayas, British Columbia, Yosemite Valley and even the mean streets of Hollywood, "First Ascent" is the benchmark for quality and excitement in extreme sports filmmaking.
