https://www.scribd.com/document/441326407/Everest-Fraud-Case-Kilian-Jornet
The fraud case is also reported in 2 books of 2019:
The Best American Sports Writing: 2019
page 203-207
The Rise of the Ultra Runners
page 221-223
One wonders why he thought he could pull off this ruse.
His ruse is a mastery of fraud. It took 60 pages of analysis to reveal it.
Dude spent about a year of his life proving Jornet didn't do what everyone already knew he hadn't done.
Jesus, drop this thing and let it go. It's yesterday's news. Time to move on.
What???? You don't trust this guy?

Even if you don't get tired of obsessing about Jornet, I certainly have grown tired of reading your threads about him. Let it go
With every thread about a cheating piece of crap (Dane, Mike R, etc.) there is always one person on that thread who repeatedly posts the same sorts of things... “nobody cares, let it go”... except of course it’s just not true. People do care. People hate cheating pieces of crap and they do not like to see cheaters getting away with their cheating and lies. Profiting off their lies is the very worst.

It's cute to agree with yourself.
I still don’t understand the bigger picture , if there is one. I hate cheaters, but (at the risk of minimizing the incident) he’s done lots of legit races, right?
This one incident, I take it, was a failure & he couldn't admit he failed, so he crossed the line? I assume he cheated for the sake of either a specific incentive, or his general superman rep, or his sponsorship?
I actually thought this Everest cheat was rubbish lrc message board...I stand corrected. Jamil Coury should do a production of an elite runner ascending/descending Everest to put away the doubts.
Don’t blame Jornet. He was just brain damaged from the high altitude.

Aren't you just doing the same thing?

What do you mean rubbish lrc message board? Every big cheating thread has turned out to be valid.

Kilian Jornet's fraud scheme for both of his Everest climbs [May 22 May 27 of 2017] is unprecedented. He deceived 10's of millions of people about human accomplishment. He has profited from his fraud via a movie-product sold at his website. He was on 10+ television shows about his Everest climbs. He received 100+ media articles world-wide and still does almost weekly in December 2019. He used the public's trust in him to deceive them. He used the climber's honor code ("a climber's word is taken as the truth") to lie. An atrocious man of poor character. I feel bad for his wife Emelie Forsberg and their baby daughter Maj. He must lie as a way of life, daily.
Eliud Kipchoge and Nike deceived thousands of millions of people about human accomplishment too. So what?
Thanks for the update, that is shocking & sad.
In a sport where drug testing is flimsy at best, one has to now wonder about the pharmacalogical basis of Kj's dominance.
