* Three other people died on the same night as this incident from an Indian Border Police expedition. One of them, likely to be Tsewang Paljor, is well known among mountaineering circles as all climbers from the Chinese side for the next 17 years would have to pass his body and its distinct bright green boots. In 2014, reports came back from climbers that Paljor's body was no longer in its spot. As the body was by this time long frozen to the ground, someone had to have removed it.

* PlayingAgainstType: Downplayed, but Keira Knightley usually plays a SpiritedYoungLady in period dramas. Here she's in a small role as Rob's concerned pregnant wife.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The film was originally envisioned as a vehicle for Christian Bale, with Rob Hall as the definite protagonist. After Bale dropped out to do ''Film/ExodusGodsAndKings'' instead, they reworked it to become an ensemble version of the main story. Rob Hall however remains the closest thing to a protagonist.
