This is a story of adventure on the highest of mountains, and also so much more. A young TV camera operator gets his first big break to film on Everest. He then has to come to terms with almost dying in an avalanche and the tragedy of losing friends in two of the biggest disasters ever to hit that mountain.
In this podcast we hear the story of Joe French's recovery from post traumatic stress, barefoot running through the forest above his home in the Scottish Highlands. It's a story he tells in vivid detail in his book Out of Mind.
