Atanas Skatov’s accusations of error, which led to his death, were shredded by official documents 24 Chasa received from his sources. He died on February 5 while descending from Camp 3 under K2.
In both acts of death, the government of the Gilgit Baltistan Autonomous Region and the Skardu City Hospital, where the Bulgarian’s body was taken, insist that the cause of death was a broken safety rope.
Immediately after the tragedy with Skatov from the company “Seven Summits Treks”, which organized the expedition to conquer K2, they were quick to explain that in reality the Bulgarian had made a mistake by disconnecting from one rope and crossing another. This was immediately taken up by a number of “experts” in Bulgaria, for whom Skatov was a thorn in their side with his success.
It has long been widely explained that due to lack of preparation he made the mistake, which now turns out to be a pure lie.
The document from the Skardu hospital mentions that the body of the Bulgarian was brought there at 5 p.m. on February 5.
Nasko had a “severe head injury accompanied by many fractures and severe blood loss.”
Gilgit Baltistan is an autonomous region disputed by Pakistan and India in the past, and today by Pakistan and China. However, the base camp for the K2 attack falls on it.
There are also accusations that Skatov was tired when he fell.
He walked no more than an hour, and in his career there are 36-hour transitions. Even the last person he spoke to confirmed that he was in an incredible mood despite the decision to stop the attack. And he talked about how he would return in the summer to conquer the summit.
All of Skatov’s acquaintances insist that he is the best when descending from the top of a rappel. His physique was perfect. This further undermines allegations that there was a mistake on their part.
Accusations of inexperience are also exaggerated, as Skatov was the most experienced of the entire expedition.
The situation in Camp 3, where most of the expedition climbers were, was really difficult.
One of them testified that the Sherpas doubled the price of the additional oxygen that was ordered. Surprisingly, the $ 200 bottle turned into $ 400.
It was he who saw Nasko’s body fly past him and into the abyss behind the broken rope.
As is known, Skatov fell off a cliff of about 220 meters. However, your tracker detects movement for 10 minutes.
after the end of the fall, which lasted more than 1 hour.
Seven Summits Treks is owned by brothers Chang Dava Sherpa and Migma Sherpa. They are the first pair of siblings to have conquered the eight thousand and, therefore, they are inscribed in the Guinness Book of Records.
Exactly from his expedition are the five victims under K2 this season. First, again due to a broken rope, the Spanish Sergio Mignolet died, and a day after the tragedy with Skatov, the legend of Pakistani mountaineering Ali Sadpara, the Icelandic John Snorri Sigurdsson and the Chilean Juan Pablo Mor disappeared.
The search for their bodies ended on Monday, but there is no possibility that they are alive.
And yet, just below K2, the Sherpa survived 100 hours buried by an avalanche.
in 2008 and was rescued. However, this happened in the summer, when temperatures are more normal.
Currently, due to the strong wind above 7000 meters above sea level, the temperature drops to minus 60 degrees.
Even legend Nimral Purja, who conquered K2 in the winter and set a speed record to climb 8,000, posted a photo of Skatov on social media. Thanks to him, the Bulgarian undertook a difficult expedition to the cruelest peak of the Himalayas.
On the other hand, some Bulgarian sites, supposedly specialized in mountaineering, have not yet written two lines about the tragedy with Skatov.
At the moment, every effort is being made to return Skatov’s body to Bulgaria. He traveled with insurance from Germany, which slowed things down. First all problems with the payment of money must be solved, and then the body will be released.
Atanas Skatov and Boyan Petrov share first place in Bulgarian mountaineering with 10 8,000 people conquered in their careers. Petrov disappeared three years ago in an attempt to conquer Shisha Pangma, and his body was never found, unlike Sliven’s.
