I'm Brother Fire, a fan of recommending good movies.
Recently, I noticed that there is a character documentary movie coming out on December 3, and this movie is called Endless Climbing.
The film tells the story of Chinese legless mountaineer Xia Boyu suffering from cancer, with 43 years of unremitting persistence and love, relying on a pair of prosthetic limbs to climb Mount Everest five times, the 70-year-old finally stood at the highest point in the world and realized his dream.
Speaking of Teacher Xia, many people may not be familiar with it. In the 2019 movie "The Climber", starring Wu Jing and Zhang Ziyi, the real events of Climbing Everest in China in 1960 and 1975 were recorded. Everyone only remembers that in 1960, the leader of the mountaineering team, Wang Fuzhou (we from Zhoukou, Henan) and two other people first climbed Mount Everest, but because there was no video data, it was not recognized by foreign countries. Then there was another climb in 1975. Xia Boyu, then 26, was a member of the Chinese mountaineering team. During this operation, he gave up his sleeping bag to his teammates, resulting in his own amputation of both calves due to frostbite.
In the movie "The Climber", Hu Ge played a mountaineering warrior Yang Guang, and Yang Guang's prototype was Xia Boyu. One might think that 1975 was the beginning of the bleakness of Xia Boyu's life, but he did not know that the loss of his legs was the beginning of the miracle of his life. In the 1980s, with a prosthesis, he ignited the hope of climbing Everest again: "My dream has not yet been realized, I can't fall like this." "He started exercising day in and day out. The roof leaks in the event of continuous rain. In 1996, because the wound was repeatedly abraded and inflamed, and it did not heal for a long time, Xia Boyu suffered from cancer and blood clots, but none of these knocked him down. In 2014, 2015, and 2016, he challenged Everest three times, all of which failed. In 2016, he was only 94 meters away from the summit, but he returned with regrets due to a snowstorm. In December 2017, Xia Boyu submitted the climbing formalities and prepared to march to the summit in May of the following year. Unexpectedly, in January 2018, Nepal issued a ban on blind people and disabled people with amputated legs from climbing. Xia Boyu decided to fight a lawsuit, and as a result, he not only won the lawsuit, but also successfully reached the summit of Mount Everest on May 14, breaking the Guinness World Record!
Finally, from the text level, the story of "Endless Climb" is sincere and moving, which can resonate with the audience and the protagonist. Everyone's experience and life are different, but everyone will have their own confusion, in the face of life's "darkest moment", can we regain confidence like Xia Boyu? Can you find your way?
I hope that after watching this movie, everyone can find a key to life for themselves.
