The story of men against the Eiger told by Christopher Brasher.
Thirty-three young men have died on the North Face of the Eiger - the most dangerous mountain wall in the Alps. Yet still men venture into this cold, white, vertical hell: a place which has been the stage for human drama; for heroism, for cowardice, for ultimate endurance - even for alleged murder.
The Eiger Wall was first climbed thirty years ago this month - "the last great problem in the Alps". Tonight's programme tells the story of the men who have found, in this 6,000-foot-high face, the ultimate challenge to their skill and courage.
