Hey that woman he described as still sitting up ,he said she looked like she was just taking a short break, her eyes wide open and hair blowing in the wind, WOW!! he said that when you passed her it was like she was watching you pass by her or something to that effect, but I was pretty much done after that one , damn man , she died sitting up, and with her eyes wide open an shit, still sitting there looking like she was just taking a break for a min. had I been strolling by I probably would have walked over and asked her if she had made it to the top yet or was she still on her way up? only to see up close she was actually dead I just asked a corpse a few questions after realizing this I would have made a mad ass dash to the summit or back down like a bat outta hell,lol damn man that's just straight up bad ass, sitting there looking fully alive takin a break but full on dead as dead can get , S.O.B. I forget her name, but may she rest in peace, poor girl, its a damn shame , why put yourself in such a fucked up situation like that, if your going to spend all that big money on a sweet getaway vacation, why not go on a smooth cruise, or a tropical resort, fuck freezing to death and lugging all that extra weight on your back makin it that much harder on yourself, only to end up a preserved corpse on a big frozen mountain side , that's not even close to being a vacation that's training to be a fuckin navy seal for GODS sake , why put yourself through that?? fuck all the dumb shit, to each his or her own man , its not for me, I didn't enlist to be a part of a para military marine or navy seal, that's the kind of training those guys go through, not people on vacation, what the fuck are they thinking ??

[@pop5678eye]

So many times when there is a death on Mount Everest there are cries of 'why didn't all those other people walking by help them?' It's because above 26000ft there is so little oxygen that it would take 8 people to carry them down (provided there are no technical obstacles in the way) and statistically for every one person thus rescued one of the rescuers died. In the 'death zone' you must carry your own weight.

You forgot to talk about the infamous 1996 Everest attempt which rob hall and several others died.

You should do a video on the other 8000 meter peaks. Everyone talks about everest, but statistically it is one of the safest 8000 meter peaks.

Green boots gets me even tho you can't see his face. Then being David Sharp sitting next to him...the idea of being just a nameless landmark bugs me.

Me:*sees notications and a rll vid* "ah another video...." Me: *reads title* "excuse me, wtf!?"

[@Kreative_Guy]

Hey RealLifeLore, do you guys think you can make a video on how far up you can go like the video you did on how deep the ocean is? I'd love to see how far you can go before gravity no longer affects

[@danielbrooks356]

Have to point out the mistake at 0:21 It said 2 people per kilometer squared but it is written s 2 people per meter squared. I love this channel the way. Keep up the good work

[@keithkahler1327]

in the native Belief system Everest is The Forbidden Mountain

[@andrewgust-anderson5612]

Because they believe it's where the gods lived

[@rejuvenatingsoul3498]

@@andrewgust-anderson5612 no it's not, it's the Kailash mountain, nobody has ever been able to summit Kailash because they believe a stoned Lord shiva meditates in a cave up in the mountains. Several experienced Russian climbers reported of strange occurrence that they had never experienced before.

"You don't expect to see corpses at Disney World", yet some of the skeletons in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride are real.

[@PARVEENKUMAR-nd2eu]

😯

[@transorm987]

If I recall, they're not anymore. I'm pretty sure the ones that were real, have been moved.

[@tigers1275]

Thetank1911 They were only ever real in Disneyland, not Disney World, and even then, they were replaced with fake skeletons about a decade after the ride opened.

[@tengkualiff]

Yea this thing is like mentioned everywhere xD finally i found a video on it

1:00 Logan Paul when he finds a dead body on Mt Everest

[@oilersridersbluejays]

K2 also apparently has quite a few bodies on it. It isn't as tall as Mt. Everest as you all probably know, but I've read it is actually more difficult to successfully summit and that the summit succession percentage is a lot lower than Mt. Everest. Mind you, any mountain taller than 8000 metres in elevation is slowly but surely killing you. Time is of the essence.

[@sandcastle1128]

0:24 you wrote square meters (m^2) instead of square kilometres (km^2)

[@davidtitanium22]

Yeah, 2 people per square meters would actually be really packed lol

[@Chief2Moon]

David Timothy P That's more like the amount&density of oxygen bottles, torn tents& other assorted trash left up there by previous expeditions.

[@thomas5]

Another good documentary on Curiosity Stream is "Kennedy: Fact or Fable", I recommend it.

[@TomKellyXY]

Tenzing and Sir Ed would still be the first to survive a return trip up there. Sounds like coming down is at least as dangerous. Good effort.

[@MrGloryglorymanutd18]

This video shows us what human beings truly are inside because of the 40 people that saw the man freezing to death only a couple tried to help which is very very sad.Surely 40 people together could have gave it a good go of saving him.

[@shaunaisaJellyBean]

This shit is so sad, one of the professors from my university went missing on Everest last year, never found him

[@light4360]

Tbh I don’t know why people keep want to go to mt Everest even after seeing u can’t I feel sorry for you late comment but yeah

[@beau_croom]

CAN YOU PLEASE MAKE A “WORLDS OLDEST LIVING LIFE FORM” VIDEO 🙏🙏🙏🙏💪

[@robertthings4335]

Fun fact: At 5:20 or so, that is actually a landmark in The Carphatian Mountains în Romania, it is The sphinx and it was made by The erosion of The rock (sorry if i misspelled anything, english îs not my first language)

[@andikurniawan4229]

Hey real life lore! No video about space for right now? Still waiting tho! Btw great video!

[@Nexxarian]

So what I took from this video is that if you know you're about to die on Mt. Everest, do a funny pose. Do a dab or something and be frozen like that. People will know you as the landmark called, "The Dabbing Man" (or woman).

[@comowowade7864]

Mistake at 5:37. You say 1998 but the number displayed is 1988.

[@xavimedina2763]

then he says 9 years later on 2007, so its 1998

[@blueberrysavers3547]

Also 2:22 which is meant to be 2 per sq km which if it were 2 per sq m, it would be overcrowded

[@ak_1979]

Arthur Schrenk woah, that’s a massive mistake 😱

[@genekelly8467]

Seeing all those dead bodies would put a damper on my enthusiasm for summiting.

[@jacksonsmackson5871]

I went ahead and looked some of this up for pictures and they are terrifying. It genuinely just looks like they are laying down or sitting for a break it’s scary

0:21 I think the M2 is meant to be km2

[@amithattimare834]

I couldn't stop myself from searching these people on the internet and find real pictures of their bodies lying on the mountain. Journey to the top is rewarding but brutal.

[@wyattdavid]

Best video by far

[@reallystupidthoughts4158]

Hey! At 5:19.. I know that. That is "The Sphinx" in Romania. Where's my Everest footage? :-p :))

[@steliananiculescu]

I wonder Also How it got there 5:19-5:24 the Românian Bucegi Sfinx :-)

[@badassfroslass]

I’m just curious how those 2 guys trying to be the first to reach the summit were last seen 800m from the summit, like who was up there watching them that close to the top?

[@piecesofstarlight]

They had a base camp and a support person. I have forgotten his name but he was the one who saw them on the second step and the last person to see them alive. Absolutely unprovable but Mallory probably summited first before Sir Edmund Hillary and died on descent. The stories of death on the highest mountains have remarkable predictability. Typically they lose sight that to be impressive it needs to be a round trip ticket and end up being tragedy.

[@paulhobday9272]

Fantastic video

[@peterorfankos8435]

Just a heads up, km2 would be a bit more accurate for square kilometer... last time I checked m2 is a tiny bit smaller 🤔
