Original Review:
The Shark's Fin is a climb that many have attempted but few have actually conquered the nearly impossible feat. This is the story of a group of climbers that attempted this climb, knowing the risks involved and pushing through the difficulties. The closer the summit gets, the more difficult the challenges become. Each one facing his own mortality as they attempt the impossible. Even knowing what's ahead, they continually push forward. Knowing that conquering this peak has eluded all that have attempted it won't stop this group of explorers. Even if they end up paying the ultimate price, they'll have done what no one else has. An adrenaline filled, emotionally challenging drama/documentary that is not for the faint of heart. The challenges that they face are presented in all their raw detail. Including some very graphic images and video from injuries that were sustained. This is to be enjoyed as what it is, watching others do what few dare to. Is it incredible strength or incredible strength that takes them to this point. That's up to each to decide for themselves. What will you decide? Watch this and decide for yourself.
