A chilling video posted by 17-year-old Australian mountaineer Bianca Adler of her physical torment after days in the deadly "death zone" of Mount Everest went viral, racking up over 22 million views on Instagram.

The viral video, taken after Adler returned to Base Camp, provides a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the extreme stress the human body endures at the mountain. Gasping for air, the teen's face is flushed and puffy from the cold winds and altitude exposure.

"I've just arrived back from camp 2. I'm at the base camp and I feel terrible. Neck, throat and lungs [are] so inflamed. I am so winded," she said in the video, highlighting the ongoing battle even after coming down from the summit level. She pointed out the irony of feeling more powerful at 8,000 meters just a day before.
