Beyond The Edge 3D Blu Ray 2013

Beyond the Edge 3D 2013 is a New Zealand docudrama about the first successful ascent of Mount Everest. The film follows Sir Edmund Hillary, a beekeeper from Auckland, and experienced Sherpa Tenzing Norgay during the 1953 British expedition. They face treacherous winds, sub-zero temperatures, bottomless crevasses and altitude sickness as they push toward the 29,000-foot summit. The production combines dramatized recreations shot on location in the Himalayas and New Zealand's Southern Alps with original color footage and photographs from the historic expedition. Audio from interviews with Hillary and expedition leader John Hunt provides narration. The story follows the two men from base camp through their final precarious push to the top of the world.
