I assume you're talking about Rob Hall. The man had to put food on the table and his business Adventure Consultants was his mechanism to do that. He made some silly mistakes in breaking his own rules to try and save one man's life and ended up taking both of their lives but it's par for the course up there on Everest. I am sure his wife who also climbed Everest knew the risks and knew what she was getting herself into when she married him. Not an ideal situation but that's life, he died doing what he loved. His family has likely moved on a long time ago.

None of these climbs would be possible without the expertise, load carrying, food preparation and life threatening risks taken by the Sherpas. They do not get enough credit, at all.

They summit the peaks too, time after time and ensure paid clients reach their goals. Their risks are not properly compensated either.

People that become immobile and can't move under their own power at these altitudes are basically doomed. Others can't carry you down Everest if you are incapacitated, and them attempting to do do will only create additional victims in the process. People descending are already exhausted from 18+ hours of climbing with limited breaks and their bodies starved for oxygen. Self sufficiency is like a religion in high altitude mountaineering for this reason. You have to have the ability, at the bare minimum, to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

To anyone wondering, there's a theory/conspiracy that Irvine's body and the camera were brought down by the chinese, the camera's film was developped and was supposedly ruined. This because they went through the chinese side of the mountain, which the later chinese team summited, marking them as the first to summit that side. However, if Mallory and Irvine managed to summit, they'd take the grand first not only from Hillary and Norgae, but also the chinese team (and even if their summit story is very cool it wouldn't be as impressive if they were marked as "second"), and due to international PR reasons and national pride they wouldn't allow it. As far as my opinion on the debate, they did summit and fell on the descent.

There is nothing new about the above video. Those bodies were identified quite some time ago, George Mallory's body was a probable identification. Some of the more recent bodies have been moved off the normal trails to the summit but many bodies in the Death Zone are half-frozen down into the ice now so cannot be removed or relocated. E.g., "Green Boots's" body is half-way down into the ice now, which would prohibt it from ever being removed. As the sun comes out and temps warm up a bit, show and ice can melt somewhat and bodies can sink lower into the ice, then more snow comes, is melted over time and the body that is exposed becomes literally encased in ice and is frozen solid so can never be removed. What is responsible for taking the lives of climbers, is not just fatigue, HAPE or HACE, for which there is only one cure, to receive oxygen and descend as fast as possible to lower altitude in order to survive. Climbers without sufficient oxygen, become brain-addled and cannot think sensibly, plus their "summit fever" has a bearing on their one-mind situation. Every single year, there are deaths on Mt. Everest, it is NOT conducive to life without a lot of intervention and many do not fully comprehend when they are dangerously hypoxic! David Sharp probably thought if he just sat down for a minute near Green Boots, that he could go on, but he died sitting up. I understand that David Sharp's body was moved by several sherpas, to an area more off trail where climbers couldn't see him as readily. There will probably ALWAYS be climbers, every single year, who succumb to altitude and hypoxia, it's simply inevitable for some climbers. If the brain does not receive enough oxygen, it can become addled, numb, unable to function properly and that includes THINKING, and without intact mental capabilities, survival on the mountain is almost certainly nil, death will be a given for some and will inevitably occur! And in Mt. Everest's Death Zone, death will be certain for a oxygen-deprived human or two, every single year, and in the Death Zone, that will be their permanent grave. It would take a lot of money to hire the 8 sherpas to retrieve and bring down a dead body IF it is possible, and most families choose to NOT bear that expense and will say "leave him on the mountain, s/he loved! They hope that will give them some comfort.

I know Rob stayed for his client, but I can’t help but feel he should have turned back. If they were running out of days on their expedition, I’d just accept that we didn’t make it to the summit.

I fear that so many of the deaths are due to too many people climbing at a time forcing people to take chances on windows and storms

Many sherpas have died trying to save white dudes. That is really sad
@elly14338 күн бұрын
? what does race matter? the sherpas were being brave and heroic regardless of the race of those they were saving. they ALSO made the decision to climb the mountain, so why are so many people acting like the climbers are stupid and selfish when the sherpas - HEROES - do the same?

it always amazes me how cruel commenters are towards the climbers. yes, they knew the risks, but they didn't deserve to die just because they did it anyway? why is this risk so much more horrific than other risks? have some compassion

There’s new evidence that Krakauer was wrong and those oxygen tanks weren’t full. It’s believed the Taiwanese team took the oxygen.

There are countless details missing in each of the tragedies, plus your way point graphics are way off.

Why do they drop the bodies of the top when they die ? Why not leave them ?
@epicadventurearchivesАй бұрын
They push the bodies down the mountain slopes because many are left along the climbing route, climbers take photos with and share them on social media, adding to the grief of their families. This behavior is deeply disrespectful, as it ignores the humanity of the deceased and reduces their final resting places to mere obstacles or photo opportunities. The bodies were once loved ones, and treating them this way diminishes their dignity. In some cases, climbers may even push the bodies down the mountain slope to clear the route.

To give them dignity, so they dont become landmarks. Also its said they cant be brought down. Depends on the sex and how much the family are willing to pay.

YT channel True Crime Loser has the best takes on climbers. He talks about sherpas carrying people up the mountains while the eat candy bars while dragged up a mountain for a selfie at the top. Hilarious

Nothing as important as getting to the top, just walked by and watch somebody die. But you gotta get to the top.

Her ego cost her life. Summiting Everest was enough she had to do it without oxygen.
