Anyone who attempts to climb Mount Everest is reckless and stupid...

So, I guess I wasn't wrong, not entirely. At least according to Wikipedia. -

Taking the body down would be next to impossible. They just got him off the main way up I guess to preserve some of his dignity or something. At least thats what I read. I could be wrong or mistaken but check it out before taking my word, just something I recall from like… Last year.
Couldn't they just toss the body from a real steep part of the mountain until it hits close to the base? -

People love to take selfies and group photos with the frozen bodies up there. A shocker to post on Facebook when they get back. -
2019-06-03 at 5:13 AM UTCSF Bay Area woman made it to the top in record time. Didn't know about that meme shot that occured just hours before she arrived. She left way after they did and ended up there just 2 hours afterwards. had she got there when they all did, she probably wouldn't have made the record time.
they were all lucky though, because it was a matter of the weather breaking which was the cause of that traffic jam of humans. -

She raced right past three different wounded climbers who were pleading for help and freezing to death and suffocating. She didn't care. Just wanted to be the quickest. She just told them she didn't have time to linger, but maybe next time. -

whoa..source
that sucks if true. I think they should build oxygen tents up there and posters of what to do when suffering from thin climate sickness.
not sure who is in charge of removing old tanks.. they have machines that make pure oxygen in real time at normal altitude levels for people with COPD, I don't know if you could utilize these with some delay at higher altitudes for these people.
Yet if that is done, then the question of making it to the top won't be as much of an accomplishment to that of someone who took it head-on without aide. It's not a hiking trip or mountain climbing. it's challenging the stress of the elements and taking it head on. -

its absolutely true. Competition encourages ruthlessness. -

I'll see your Mariana trench and raise (lower?) you a CORE OF THE EARTH. -

The worst thing is you just know he didn't pay for it himself. -

2019-06-03 at 11:23 PM UTCJoe Rogan said it much better, WellHung. Maybe you should try doing stand-up comedy though. A lot of depressed fags get into it and actually it may help with your emoism.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire!
