  • More money than sense ... people think its some sort of ultra adventure package holiday when it is one of the most deadly environments on the planet , even the most experienced climbers have died
    On Everest . It’s the Sherpa’s I feel sorry for as they are being exploited so that rich idiots can get bragging rights at the next dinner party ...
    If you go up and die then it is no ones fault but your own , if you are willing to pay loads of money for the experience, then there are always people who will facilitate your egotistical stupidity .
    In the end you have to take responsibility for your own actions
