人类唯一一次成功的热气球飞越。照例一些矛盾争执，在高海拔Gokyo漫长的一个月天气监测等待，并因不协调的teamwork错失过良机。关于夏尔巴人，＂I probably have a romantic image of the Sherpas. In one hand I think their life is simple. But on another plain, they have a complex set of demons, that they have to struggle with everyday.＂治疗高山肺水肿使用gamma bag，全程吃力手动pumping供氧。起飞前妻子流而不露的深情告别，＂Don’t do anything I wouldn’t do.＂全三集的摄影Leo Dickinson与飞行员在气球上的缺氧对答。乒乓球般坠毁在西藏荒岭，被藏民当作天降来客。Leo笑并哭了，飞行员以为他痛到不行，却其实因筹划了十年的项目完成，＂I don’t know where to go from here.＂
