À propos de ce contenu audio

31 July 1954, 6 PM Lino Lacedelli and Achille Compagnoni embrace one another on K2: they’re the first to ever climb the second tallest peak of the world. Conquering K2 is an athletic effort, but it’s also much more than that. It’s also an iconic moment, which touches the hearts of Italians right when they are rebuilding after the war. Because going to K2 is like going to the moon. 70 years later, this podcast tells the story of that adventure and the impact that K2 had on the national collective imagination as well as on an entire country that was trying to find itself right in that moment.

      Jul 26 2024
      When they make it to the top of K2, Achille Compagnoni and Lino Lacedelli are the first people to set foot on the second highest peak in the world. They take pictures, they raise a flag, but they don’t have the time to celebrate, as they must immediately set off again to return to the base camp. K2 is a treacherous mountain, and many expeditions have attempted and failed to climb it: the Italian expedition succeeds thanks to the skills of its climbers and unprecedented technical support.

    • Ep.2 - The night
      Jul 27 2024
      Alone, in the dark, in one of the most dangerous places of the planet. Shortly after completing the climb, Achille Compagnoni and Lino Lacedelli start to make their way back down towards the base camp: they stumble, they fall, they slide. They lose part of their technical equipment and their flashlight even goes out. And yet, somehow they manage to make their way out alive from that which is known as the “Death Zone” and back to their companions at the base camp: they’re safe. It’s the arrival point of an endeavor which the expedition leader has been organizing for an entire year; and that started with searching for funds, then continued with the diplomatic relations of the Italian President of the Council Alcide de Gasperi, and was later made possible with the full support of the most advanced Italian technology companies.
