The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
119. Devon Lévesque: What Facing Death on Everest Taught Me about Living

I just I'm at twenty eight and a half thousand feet. There's 50 yards to go. But, you know, coming down that 50 yards before I go over the next cliff, there's 100 people in between and there's two inches to step on. And my oxygen is running out. And all of a sudden I say in my head, Devin, you're likely going to die. This is not fun during. I'm not laughing about it. It is.

What's my girlfriend Nina going to say at my funeral? What's my mom going to say at my funeral? This is it. I wonder what jokes they're going to make. I wonder what my buddies are going to say. It's not fun during. I'm looking at death in the face. I'm seeing where my head's going to hit the rock. I'm seeing where my body's going to end up. That's not fun. That's type three fun.
