Hey, it's Marissa from I Survived. The BBC have asked me to share a podcast recommendation with you.

This is extreme peak danger. Let me ask you a question. How much would you be prepared to push your mind and body to feel truly alive?

In August 2008, around 30 climbers took on K2, but 11 of them would never return home.

Presented by historian Natalia Melman Petrazella, extreme peak danger hears from survivors of one of the deadliest mountaineering disasters the world has ever seen.

When a devastating avalanche scatters high-altitude climbers

across K2's steep slopes, life and death rescue missions quickly get underway. Who can be saved

before time runs out? This is a story of humans versus nature and survival against all the odds.

What does it take to push yourself to the brink of human possibility? How does it feel to stand with the whole world at your feet?

And is it worth risking death in order to feel like you're living your life to the max?

Listen to the teaser here and find extreme peak danger from the BBC

wherever you get your podcasts.

What does it feel like to stand on top of the world?

In the summer of 2008, 18 climbers found out when they reached the peak of the second tallest

mountain on earth, K2.

The most beautiful mountain in the world.

The queen of all mountains.

I can see the summit off the mountain I'm standing on as a big shadow towards China.

All around me there are glaciers and mountains as long as I can see.

And the sky is this warm blue color.

They can even see the curvature of the earth.

The stars slightly showing up on the sky.
