In 2012, climber and filmmaker David Bresheers created a stunning mosaic of photographs of Mount Everest and its surrounding mountains to show the world the impact of climate change. David and his team stitched together 477 photos to create a stunning 2 billion pixel panorama of Mount Everest (see video below).
David Breshears is a serious mountaineer who has completed five ascents of Everest. In 1996, he shot a short documentary about the tragic death of 8 climbers at the top of the world. John Krakauer described this event in his bestseller In Thin Air.
In a series of images that David captured in 2012, Everest can be seen in all its glory, as well as bright tents at the base camp, where more than 500 climbers gather each season in the hope of a chance to reach the highest peak on planet Earth.
To do this, they need to overcome the famous Khumbu Icefall, which consists of huge ice seracs and cracks. After passing the icefall, climbers climb the vertical ice wall of Lhotse, which is the fourth peak in the world, to the third camp.
After the third camp along the South-East ridge, they enter the so-called "death zone", a height at which it is impossible to survive without additional oxygen. All climbers dream of reaching the summit of Mount Everest and returning to base camp alive.
When David Breshears and his team photographed Everest and the surrounding mountains, they had no idea that they were also filming a UFO.
When the image is zoomed in, an unusual object is clearly visible flying directly over the top of Changse, which is translated from Tibetan as "North Peak". Compared to the altitude of Everest, it's safe to say that a UFO resembling a flying saucer flies at an altitude at which helicopters and drones cannot operate. Unfortunately, there is no additional information about the object, but it is still very unusual to see a UFO flying over one of the highest mountains in the world.
