I was astounded by the fact that climbers see Mount Rainier as nothing but a training ground for preparatory ascents. Yet, it's exactly here that extreme enthusiasts often face tragic events. Today, I've chosen 2 horrific stories in which mountaineers went through indescribable trials after falling into the insidious crevasses of Mount Rainier's glaciers. This posed a challenge not just for them but also for the rescuers who had to do the impossible. Watch until the end to find out if any of them managed to survive.
