David Breashears filmed an IMAX documentary about climbing Everest. He and his film team were on the mountain during the disaster in 1996 and they abandoned the filming to assist in rescues. They were later able to complete the filming and release the film in 1998.
The film being released now is a "Hollywood style" fictionalized retelling of the 1996 disaster.
