I'M DONE | The Moment She Almost Quit Everest

from Michelle vs Humanity · host Michelle Haslam

Everest survival stories reached a new level of unhinged in 2022. While Everest 2026 brings new rules, the story of Jane and Gabby Kanizay remains a masterclass in survival ethics. I sat down with Jane Kanizay to hear the raw truth about the moment she looked at her daughter, Gabby, and said: "I'M DONE."In this Mount Everest summit interview, we dive into the terrifying reality of going blind in the Death Zone, how easy it is to run out of oxygen, and why Jane’s daughter refused to let her quit just 900 meters from the top. We also discuss the "Teach Us Consent" campaign and what it’s really like for the youngest Australian to achieve an Everest-Lhotse double summit.In this episode: 0:00: "I'M DONE": The moment that changed everything 0:31: Goal setting and Everest Base Camp1:33: Training to summit Everest 4:32: Saying goodbye to the family5:57: Jane’s cause – Teach us Consent7:27: The reality of Camp 4: Why she was ready to quit 9:51: The summit, out of oxygen and going blind in the death zone12:52: Hallucinations 14:40: The World Record and homeward bound16:05: Final thoughtsContact Jane: https://www.instagram.com/jane_kaniz/https://janekanizay.com/Join the Campfire Conversations & find your people:https://www.patreon.com/cw/MichellevsHumanityFREE Everest Read / Watch guide - https://linktr.ee/michelle.vs.humanityMy other channels:https://www.instagram.com/michelle.vs.humanity/https://www.tiktok.com/@michelle.vs.humanityDISCLAIMER: All materials in these videos are used for education and entertainment purposes and fall within the guidelines of fair use.
