Thanks to my sponsors for helping make these expeditions possible: Rab, SunGod and The Johnston Quarry Group.

Thanks
Endless thanks goes to Himalayan Guides Nepal for their logistics and support. Same goes for Maddison Mountaineering who I used for Everest, Lhotse and K2. Big love goes to Lhakpa Whongchu Sherpa who stands by my side on all of these big expeditions and to Becks for trusting in me to guide her on this mountain.

Man's just climbed the hardest 8000er, and made it seem like a weekend trip instead of the menacing peak it is. Respect for you man, this is one of my biggest goals in life.

I've just climbed K2 from the comfort of my spare bedroom. It was tough going, particularly pulling the 3rd can of beer from the fridge. After several days on YT, I now know the routes up to Everest and K2. Isn't the internet amazing. Thanks Jon for this epic video.

Most difficult summit in the world and this guys just vlogged it for us... UNREAL MAN!!!

What really frightens me is how the people in the 50s did it without all the tech that we possess today. No fixed lines, no known routes, worse accessibility. Just mind blowing. Great video and well done!!

[Duskysky]

I can't fathom the fact that you climbed this deadly, savage, extremely high mountain while vlogging with an extremely positive energy throughout, came back down safely, and it seemed like just going trekking... you're a legend!

[sunder]

It's really crazy to think how the first climbers of all these gigantic peaks make it to the top without the safety lines, routes or hand ladders to assist them. It's simply mind-blowing.

[Reznor_Meeks]

This is the most calm, most realistic, least fear mongering K2 expedition video on the internet
Stunning accomplishment Sir!

[condo]

Easily the best self-documented K2 video I have seen. No "over the top" drama, beautiful shots, updates on positioning given throughout, and no loud music ruining some of ambience of climbing! Awesome job and congrats on the summit!

[NebulaXOverseer]

You just climbed K2, you gave all of use the experience rate. You also achieved a huge milestone and made it look so simple, respect.

[carlbruhn]

In my opinion Jon puts out the best alpine videos period. Always a positive attitude, he speaks with a team mentality, constantly points out landmarks, uses proper terminology describing the route. An absolute joy to watch!!

[sanfranciscobay]

To be at the Summit with light wind and no clouds is a lucky experience. Come back 4 hours later and wind speeds can be 50-100mph.

[sixtusleberbaum]

Appreciated the very high quality video and the simple no-nonsense presentation. Impressive how often you had the camera out/on while doing very tough climbing!

[asaha]

The view of the sunrise near the summit must've been absolutely breath taking in real life. what an experience

[dimcx]

Is unreal, really Incredible ! This team is so calm, professionaly, no dramas, no dragons, ghosts, Aliens etc. INCREDIBLE!

[andrewcummings]

I can't even fathom the strength both physically and mentally it takes to do this, unreal

[gerardtoulza]

I am 74 years old and in love with k2 since i was 20 ...I went in concordia in 1995, just a few days after Allison Heargreaves drama, to see it, but i'm not a climber, just a trekker .
I have seen many and many videos on k2, but yours brought tears to my eyes .
Thanks a lot Yon
sorry for my English

[DoJoStan]

I've been going down the rabbit hole of K2 videos. Glad everyone made it up and down safe. This was such a calm perspective on a very dangerous mountain!

[aeva]

This is - by far - the most realistic video I've ever seen of the K2 climb. No over the top nonsense, no underestimating, just the true experience. Fantastic. Well done!

[Khalid_KK]

I feel so proud being a Pakistani that you guys come here and provide us the opportunity to serve you guys. This guy just climbed the 2nd highest peak in the world n made a vlog for us like he is doing sone weekend trips lol

Big respect for you man

[raheelzaman]

Kudos to Jon for capturing the video using a standard camera (not wide-angle). It provides an authentic view of K2. Excellent work! This is, by far, the best K2 video I’ve ever seen.
