The famous Norwegian woman has caused an uproar on the internet mountaineer Christine Harilabecause she left her injured in the snow porterso that he can conquer the K2 peak of the Karakorum mountain range.

In accordance with Sky NewsThe 27-year-old father of three Muhammad Hassan he died, while video released shows climbers walking past him and ignoring him as he bleeds to death.

According to the report, the 27-year-old was accompanying the group ahead of Harila when he slipped on a narrow ledge, became entangled in ropes, and later died on the mountain. Two men climbing K2 on the same day criticized the team, saying Mr Hassan was treated like an underdog by other climbers.

After the commotion, the 37-year-old posted on Instagram where she defended her decision, saying that she helped a little at first and then continued the climb, leaving others to help the man.

“I’m outraged that so many people are blaming others for this tragic accident… It was no one’s fault what happened, you can’t comment when you don’t understand the situation and it’s never ok to send threats to a person’s life. You have to remember that at 8,000+ meters, your survival instincts influence the decisions you make,” he wrote.

At the same time, he added that “I didn’t see exactly what happened, but suddenly he fell and was hanging from the rope… At first we all stood still, probably out of shock and fear. But then we realized that it was hanging upside down and couldn’t come back up on its own. We decided to continue, since the gathering of many people in the narrow passage would make rescue efforts difficult,” writes the mountaineer, adding that her cameraman stayed behind for about 2.5 hours trying to help the porter while others passed him. I think some of the climbers didn’t realize how serious what Hassan had been and that’s why we saw in the video that they went over him to get to the other side safely.”

“It is truly tragic what has happened and I feel deeply saddened for Hassan’s family. At least I hope we can learn something from this tragedy,” he wrote, among other things.
