Episode notes

Climbing is a way to get away from all of the rubbish that you have in our world. You're putting your trust in the other person completely. It can be pretty dangerous, but for Joe and Simon it was exactly what they were looking for. And because we live in a world where there's so much risk now, this isn't very safe either.

A film club episode about the award-winning documentary film "Touching the Void" about a mountain climbing expedition which goes wrong. It's an amazing true story and there are lots of things to learn from it, including lessons about motivation and attitude towards any challenge. The film is available on Netflix and DVD. Check it out and use this episode to help you understand it all.
