NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC REVEALS TRAILER AND ANNOUNCES PREMIERE DATE FOR PULSE-POUNDING DOCUMENTARY SPECIAL, "THE DEVIL'S CLIMB"

From Plimsoll Productions, Special Follows Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell on an Expedition to Attempt a World Speed Record Traverse of the Five Spires on the Infamous Devils Thumb, a 9,000-foot Alaskan Peak Regarded as One of the Most Dangerous Mountains in North America

THE DEVIL'S CLIMB Premieres Oct. 17 at 9/8c on National Geographic Streams Next Day on Disney+ and Hulu

(WASHINGTON, D.C. - Sept. 24, 2024) National Geographic released the trailer and key art for the thrilling documentary special THE DEVIL'S CLIMB, which is set to premiere on Oct. 17 at 9/8c on National Geographic and available to stream the next day on Disney+ and Hulu. From Plimsoll Productions, THE DEVIL'S CLIMB follows world-class rock climbers Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell on an epic expedition to tackle one of the most daunting challenges of their careers: summiting the infamous Devil's Thumb, a sinister tower and legendary 9,000-foot peak in the Alaskan wilderness surrounded by old-growth rainforest and known as one of the most dangerous mountains in North America.

Alex and Tommy are two of the greatest rock climbers of all time - and best friends. Together, they set off on an emotional and physical journey, traveling 2,600 miles by bicycle, sailboat and on foot through the American West, Canada and Alaska to a daring climb of the Devil's Thumb.

For Tommy, regarded as a pioneer in the sport and one of Alex's heroes, this expedition is a chance to make a heroic comeback from a career-threatening Achilles injury, making the expedition's success uncertain. For Alex, this climb is among the greatest adventures of his life, a testament to his relentless drive to achieve the impossible as well as his commitment to Tommy's return to climbing. The two friends have a rich shared history of adventurous speed climbing and a record-setting partnership.

Directed by fellow climber Renan Ozturk, witness the breathtakingly extraordinary adventure as Alex and Tommy attempt to accomplish the first-ever single-day traverse of all five peaks of the Devil's Thumb massif, pushing their bodies and bond to the absolute limit.

THE DEVIL'S CLIMB is produced by Plimsoll Productions. For Plimsoll Productions, James Smith, Martha Holmes, Alan Eyres and Grant Mansfield are executive producers. Peter Mortimer, Jonathan Retseck, Alex Honnold and Tommy Caldwell are executive producers. Renan Ozturk is the director, and Matt Pycroft is the co-director. Drew Pulley is the edit director. For National Geographic, Chris Kugelman is executive producer, Bengt Anderson is senior vice president of Unscripted Production, and Tom McDonald is executive vice president of Global Factual and Unscripted Content.
