Today, we're scaling the dizzying heights of the world's most vertical landscapes. From terrifying ascents that challenge even the most skilled climbers, to peaks that seem impossibly steep from every angle, get ready for an adrenaline-packed journey. Hold your breath, tighten your grip, and don't look down—because we're about to explore the top 15 steepest mountains in the world!

It's crazy how Joe Simpson broke his leg on two different mountains, a half world apart but still managed to crawl to base camp after three days !!!
Still a great video ;-)

FYI: The beautiful pyramidal snowy peak far behind shown from min. 4:25 over 18 sec. is *NOT* Ama Dablam‼️ It is the a few miles southerly lying 6, 572 m high *Malanphulan* (aka. Malanphutang), while Ama Dablam itself (outside the left frame) isn't seen in this frame except its western foothills extension as lower glacier moraine ridge on left foreground‼️

Martin Sheen's crew didn't like to hear him, but I LOVE NATURE and I always imagined to be there and he tells me. Because of you, what I imagined, became a reality!😁

The Grande Jorasse has a tough north face, that's true, but you mostly showed the southern slopes in this video!

[motosaki]

surprisingly few things to tear you apart for about this video. well done

[catcrazy]

You tell the same story on #10 & #3. So which one is it? How many bodies are currently on Mt. Everest?

[lughete]

Beautiful photography but very repetitive oral presentation

[saikatghosh]

A notable omission is Dhaulagiri South face, one of the toughest route

[metuberob]

from a satellite perspective these videos are quite steeply technical with advanced rope techniques ... makes everest look easy but yes it is not ...

[ThomasLiden-cq]

I wish I was able to watch more of The West Wing. In several scenes Martin Sheen is talking about the places in nature he went to.

[mindexplorer]

0:50 You speak about the north face of the Matterhorn, but the images show the south face.

[ThomasLiden-cq]

Now I have a Martin Sheen sounding character talking to me about the nature he knows about!😊

[someguy]

As usual, great walls of Central Asia's Pamirs and Tien-Shan are totally overlooked

[danilofiorentini]

Gasherbrum 4 West Face? Lhotse South face?

[ButteringBiscuitz]

siula grande is on here twice but great video none the less

[bluewhalestudioblenderanim]

14:55 that is "mt Fids roy" whitch is not the same thing as cerro torre, but it is it's "parent peak"

being largest and highest of the many granite towers found in the area
also I expected to see "mt gasherbrum" as it also has an extremely steep and craggy face and oddly enough Twin Summits of similar height

Stop with the recycled subjects and video clips and any AI you use and keep doing new, more original content like this.Good one Top15 this is why ive held off unsubscribing so many times when ive been frustrated with the regurgitation.

[Tony-mt]

pretty good list. I would have included Mt. Huntington in Alaska though.
