The Longest Climb - trailer v1

This is something extraordinary. This is, you might say, impossible. This is something that has never been done before.

This is an attempt to set a new world record. An attempt to raise £10,000 for three charities, Amnesty International,standing up for humans wherever justice, freedom and truth are denied, HeartUK, the nations cholesterol charity, and The British Mountaineering Council, Working for climbers, hill walkers and mountaineers in England and Wales.

This is two guys, Tom lancaster and Jonathan Briggs, attempting to climb the height of mount everest, 8,848m, in one stretch, on an indoor climbing wall. This equates to 595 times up the 15m wall.

Ridiculous? Impossible? moronic? Perhaps. But this is not just a vain attempt to steal the limelight and earn 15 seconds of fame, this is two friends trying to do some real good in the world, and with your help we can achieve it.
