This two-minute and twenty-six-second video, shot by Chinese high-altitude photographer Ma Chunlin, in a single-take by drone camera from Everest Base Camp (EBC) to the summit. It took Chunlin only 15 minutes to make the video, meaning he went straight from the base camp to the top of the world in fifteen minutes! This take was taken between 6.55 and 7.10 am on May 19, after determining a golden window based on the dynamics of space, time, and weather. Usually, permission to fly drones from the north side of Everest, i.e. from Tibet, is not available, but Chunlin made this impossible possible. Earlier, while making the same attempt in 2024, Chunlin's drone was crushed by a heavy snowstorm near Camp-3. He did not give up. Enjoy this breathtaking photogray.
