Yuichiro Miura, un skieur japonais, a rêvé de littéralement skier sur le mont Everest. Il prévoyait de skier quelque 8 000 pieds sur un glacier glacé à un angle de 40 à 45 degrés, à partir du niveau de 26 000 pieds près du sommet. Le documentaire relate cet exploit incroyable et l'énorme tâche de gravir l'Everest lui-même. Le narrateur lit le journal que le skieur a tenu personnellement. Le film a été produit par le cinéaste canadien Budge Crawley avec les images réalisées pour le documentaire japonais original de 1970 (Eberesuto dai kakko). Crawley a remporté l'Oscar du meilleur long métrage documentaire pour cette photo.

The pair decide to lower Joe with the help of ropes on the steep snowy slope, while an enormous storm rages on. Simon cannot see where he is lowering Joe and Joe eventually drops off a cliff and is suspended by the rope in mid-air. Simon arrests his fall, but neither sees the predicament his partner is in nor hears him, due to the severity of the storm.

Chasing the Horizon takes a look at a team's preparation for the Tecate SCORE Baja 1000, one of the most grueling off-road racing events in the world. It is known as such because of the extreme conditions which the race is set in, the length of the race, and spectators have even been known to set up booby traps on the course for their own entertainment. The team that the film takes a look at is a rookie trio called Team Horizon. Milo Brown is an ex-con and junkyard owner but is also the team's captain. Jeff Lloyd was once a homeless man who went on to become a millionaire and racecar driver. Toby O'Mara serves as the team chief mechanic and co-driver, but he is also a plumber. The three men come together and form a sort of dysfunctional family to compete in this grand event. The film takes a look at the ups and downs of the crew's experiences in the days that lead up to the actual race and the viewer sees moments of laughter and comedy but also times of sadness.
