John Harlin lll wrote quite a bit more about this ascent and about his father too in his EXCELLENT book "The Eiger Obsession." Well worth reading.
I myself get vertigo atop a stepladder, so what people like these are able to achieve in life simply amazes me.
I loved the book and this film too. And then, web-surfing, I came across one "Ueli Steck." I thought I had seen it all...but what he managed to do on this very same face left me truly in awe (YouTube)
Many of the shots were, yes.
