Sadistic, it was essential survival skills. His feet will have gone numb so he cold not run. He needed to get his blood pumping around his body to get his temperature up. His only option was to wank like he had never wanked before.... Poor guy...

They played the actual recording of the guide, who spoke his last words while being stranded in the ice and snow, at 27,000 ft, in total darkness, with gales howing.

Now that's scary. I always assumed that freezing to death would be relatively painless for some reason, maybe like just falling asleep and then 'boom', yer dead. Fuck, is there no pleasant way to go???
