i think a double everest wont be that hard like this one. Sure, it will be hard but more for the muscles and mental. For 7 hours, you can punch yourself in the face pretty good, but for 17hours, its another system stress. 24h climping world record should suit phil also very good :D So whatever he does next, im exited.
