Howdy James, how's tricks? Great video, really bittersweet. Such a shame it had to end like that for you, but better safe than sorry I guess. Man, the chopper ride looked almost as scary as that bloody plane was. Peace, Tom W.

Thank you so much for posting this. I went on the trek to Everest base camp myself with HiMex this year, this video brought so many memories back. It was unfortunate that the helicopter evaluation was required and I hope that recovery was swift. That was a fantastic shot of the landing at Lukla, I still can't believe that I flew into that crazy airport (and more importantly, lived to tell the tale). The whole Khumbu area is an amazing part of the world with wonderful people. Once again, thanks!

Wow, great video. Too bad about the helicopter evac. I can't imagine that the hospital in Kathmandu was very nice.
Thanks for the comment. The hospital was actually very nice, it was westernised and we saw a very helpful young American doctor.
