    Hi,

    I'm looking for a film I just can't think of the name of it. It's based on actual events and I googled but with no luck. I think it could have been produced by BBC or channel 4.

    Its about 2 guys climbing a mountain (Everest I think but I'm not sure) and they are connected by a rope. Anyway, one of them falls and ends up hanging over the edge of a cliff with the other safe on top. The one on top then faces the decision whether to cut the rope or not in order to save his own life.

    If you know the name of it I'd appreciate it.

    Thanks

    Some eerie use of Boney M in that film.
