Yup, saw it on PBS a few months back. One of those docu-dramas, but this one manages to keep you on the edge of your seat pretty well. I recommend it also!

Yes ... but if you want true drama, read any of Joe Simpson's books. The guy's a bit of a nutjob, but he gets himself into crazy situations, and lives to write about them. Fantastic author if a dubious climber.
