5.8
Fewer than 500 people have summited all Seven Summits and no one has achieved Charlie Engle’s goal: To be the first athlete to trek from the lowest point to the highest summit on every continent.
FROM THE DEPTHS OF THE DEAD SEA TO THE TOP OF MT. EVErest
The Capstone Expedition: Dead Sea to Everest - 5.8 - In this expedition, Charlie Engle will push the human body’s physical and mental limitations by setting out to accomplish a nearly impossible adventure. A symbolic journey of one man pushing himself through struggle and adversity to complete his personal dream, a testament to the strength of willpower.
From the lowest point of the planet - the depths of the Dead Sea - Charlie will swim, free dive, run, paddle, mountain bike and climb his way through multiple countries across a wondrous and varied landscape, striving to complete his journey on the very tip of the earth - Mount Everest.
While it’s over 4,500 miles from the shore of the Dead Sea to the peak of Mount Everest, these iconic ends of the earth are separated by a mere 5.8 vertical miles.
Every person on the planet lives within this tiny sliver of atmosphere. I want to explore and share the beauty of this amazing world where we all live, with everyone who follows my journey.
- Charlie Engle
