The saddest thing I have ever heard

Watched a documentary called The Beckoning Silence about 2 days ago...I am telling you...that is the saddest story I have ever ever heard...just thinking about it..sigh..it's not that kind of sadness, which makes you weep...at least not for me...but it's those sadness that you can feel it in the core of your being...not exaggerating...anywayz..I shall attempt to tell that story in one short paragraph...do read it though..it's just amazing..the strength of someone..by the way..they made a film about it..called the NorthFace...okay..here goes...

It's the story of 4 young enthusiastic German mountain climbers attempting to climb the North Face. Now...I do not know much about mountains or climbing but I think it's one of the most dangerous...this story is also set in the year 1936...so as I was saying...these 4 guys were more than halfway up the mountain when there was an avalanche. One of them fell off the cliff..so instant death...3 left right...what happened was the avalanche pushed them over the edge of the cliff...and since they were tied together rite...the one at the end of the rope..he got knocked into rocks..and he died..the second I think his name is Tony Kurz is left dangling while the third guy got lodge at the edge of the cliff...now..the rope around the third guy was strangling him..but if he were to cut the rope, Tony would die...so he was strangled to death...apparently it took about 10 mins...sad right...but that's not all...

The rescue people came...but they couldnt get to Tony because of the bad weather so Tony had to spend the night dangling in the cold...next day right...one of his hands got frostbitten le.....the rescuers still couldnt get to him...and the only way is for him to rippel ..but his rope wasnt long enough...so he cut his friend at the bottom off...still not enuff rope..he had to cut the friend at the top off..so with one good hand..he pulled himself up the rope to his friend at the edge of the cliff..and cut him off too...and then he had to unravel the rope and join them together..took him 5 hours..after tat...the rope was too weak to support his weight...so he let the rope down to the resucers to get a longer rope...the resucers didnt have a long enuff rope as well..so they tied two pieces with a knot...i know..now u think good..he can at last be saved rite...WRONG...halfway down right..the knot got stuck in his metal thingy(not sure what it is called)...and he had to undo the knot..but then he was so tired by then...he couldnt do it....so at the end..he sat forward..in a clear voice..he said,"I'm finished"....and then slowly died...CAN U IMAGINE....WAH LAU EH....SO SAD RIGHT
