Anton Kunz, 17-year-old German student holidaying in Switzerland, lost his life because of a knot in a rope. With three friends he had set out to climb the 13,000 feet high Eiger peak. Their route lay up the steepest and most difficult side of the mountain. The rock face was almost sheer. After three days’ climb an avalanche swept down. Kunz saw his friends swept off their feet, cling desperately to a ledge and then one by one drop exhausted; they fell 1200 feet to their death. Kunz was left alone on a narrow ledge in a blinding snowstorm. Through their telescopes the inhabitants of a town at the foot of the mountain had watched the climb, had seen the avalanche and then when the weather cleared had picked out the lonely figure still clinging to the mountain face. A rescue expedition set off, got a rope to the boy and began to guide him down. He made fast the rope and tried to slip down it. All was going well till he came to a knot in the rope. He hesitated. He fainted from sheer exhaustion. Another fall of stone swept him away when he was only a few yards from safety. So the Eiger has claimed another party for its victims.
