This film is based on the worst disaster to ever occur in the Mount Everest region in Nepal but a striking coincidence occurred when it was being shot in Nepal.
An avalanche on April 18, 2014 killed 16 people on Everest and the casualty was higher than the 1996 disaster on which this movie is based. The shooting had to be postponed and the disaster took the most lives ever taken in an Everest Disaster, mostly Sherpas (all Nepalese) who were preparing ground work for the upcoming climbing season.
