I watched the documentary and it was not good. It felt forced and no emotion whatsoever. Listening to him here you'd think that he actually climbed on Everest to look for his brother. But no, he just sat at Basecamp. That's ok I guess, it's best to know your limits but I didn't enjoy the documentary. Full respect to the Sherpas that went there on the mountain, facing real danger.

Misleading title, he didn’t climb Everest
Incredibly dangerous rescuing bodies at that altitude, feel sorry for the Sherpas who are getting a pittance and exploited for film making

An amazing film and Spencer should feel so proud of what he did, and of course all for his lovely brother taken too soon 😘

I think the guys who said no no it’s an Indian man, then found someone so similar to Michael but wrong watch, I think in my heart that’s Michael and his watch is stolen . I would need DNA as a Mother

[tinadailey]

The love an loyalty, the sacrifice Matthews brother has in his heart is absolutely something I will never know, out of my whole family I can say with confidence my dog love me more than all of them out together ‼️💞

[jeanblyth]

Spencer’s is only telling what he experienced
Saw Everest in a different lite “most enjoyable “

[clondon]

I’m sure he said he only climbed to base camp not Mount Everest. Incorrect title

His parents must of been worried about losing another son to the mountain.

[matimanunited]

Did he climb Everest? I have seen the Documentary but he was in base camp the whole time talking on walkie-talkie.

[peanutx]

no he didn't ffs, he never left Basecamp!!

[joeglasheen]

He paid someone else to risk their lives to find the body. He went to basecamp. After 18yrs on everest, the suit worn by his brother surely would have lost its vibrant color ? The photo showed it looked alot fresher than 18yrs..

[afomaandrea]

Oh my God, I can’t imagine how painful this was

[fayecox]

He definitely did not climb Everest his family hired people to do it he was at base camp and kept in touch by hand radio

[darrenmackenzie]

Spencer should keep trying to find his brother and document it for the viewers as it's addictive to watch. Keep it up Spencer and all the luck to be re visit mount Everest to find Michael.

He didn't climb it. He stayed at basecamp.

[samikemal]

He sat in a warm tent eating meals, drinking coffee and speaking to the real rescuers on Mount Everest.
Sad story and undoubtedly traumatising for a young man and I respect the vulnerability and honesty. If anyone ever watched an inkling of this guy on British television you'll see he's an absolute Silver spoon asshole with barely any source of emotion for anyone but himself. Even in the movie he can't even strain out a tear because he's emotionally a fucking dry river bed.
His brother is an absolute warrior to climb everest at 22!

[bunner]

He didn't climb Everest he went to base camp and stayed there

[Mnd-Snne]

ich habe den Film gesehen. Sie haben wohl eine Leiche gefunden. Aber er trug KEINE ROLEX. Es war nicht Michael 😢

[helenholmes]

A wonderfully emotionally Intelligent conversation, thank you.
