Sie gehört zu den größten Höhlenkammern unseres Planeten: die Majlis al Jin im Sultanat Oman
Ein unberührter Ort in einem der faszinierendsten Länder des Orients. Und die ultimative Herausforderung für zwei Generationen der weltbesten Extremsportler, die unterschiedlicher kaum sein können: Stefan Glowacz und Chris Sharma. Ihr Ziel: Als erste Menschen diese unterirdische Höhle kletternd zu bezwingen - frei, ohne technische Hilfsmittel! Wie Fledermäuse am Höhlendach klebend, im Dunkeln, dem Licht entgegen erklettern die beiden Ausnahmesportler die unterirdische Kathedrale, in der mühelos mehrere Verkehrsflugzeuge parken könnten. "Into the Light" begleitet die beiden Abenteurer bei ihrem Aufstieg aus diesem sagenumwobenen, von oben unscheinbar wirkenden schwarzen Loch in der Steinwüste. Ein Abenteuer, das Gänsehaut garantiert.
The Majlis al Jin in the Sultanate of Oman is one of the largest cave chambers on the planet, an untouched site in one of the most fascinating countries in the Middle East
The cave posed the ultimate challenge for Stefan Glowacz and Chris Sharma, two of the world's greatest extreme athletes from two generations, who could hardly be more different. Their mission was to be the very first to climb out of its subterranean depths with their bare hands, free of technical assistance. Like bats clinging to the roof of the cathedral-like chamber that could easily fit several passenger jets, the two outlier athletes made their slow ascent back to the glare of the sun. Into the Light follows the two adventurers as they emerge from this dark and legendary chasm, inconspicuous from above, out into the rocky desert. This is an adventure that will send shivers down your spine.
