What It’s Actually Like To Climb Mount Everest
In addition to being the highest point on Earth at 29,000 feet above sea level, Mount Everest is also one of the most sought after destinations of mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts. While it’s not considered one of Earth’s most dangerous mountains, people die attempting to summit its peak each year, prompting many to wonder what it’s like to climb Everest and if it’s worth it. Despite the costs, dangers, and extreme endurance needed, many climbers claim it is.

If you have money you take the summit. Climbing everest is just about money.

Mount Everest is now being covered in Sh-t, which remains frozen for decades. All these 100,s of climbers have to Poo somewhere. For the environment sake stop this mad rush to climb this mountain

"unless you're part extends 3 and 1/2 mi up." When your video gets basic facts wrong, I had to stop watching.

You're wrong about the Death Zone and small aircraft. Only commercial airliners and jets with pressurized cabins can reach that height. A private pilot with a Cessna 172 couldn't climb as high as Base Camp. The air that high doesn't have enough pressure for a propeller to generate enough thrust to keep the plane airborne.

Most people rather let nature take it's coarse when succumbing to your last breath but climbing Mt Everest isn't what I had in mind.

@ 0:12 you say:
“….it has become the ‘bucket list destination’ of climbers….”
But I say:
“….it has become the ‘kick the bucket list destination’ of waaaaay too many climbers….”

I am a former mountaineer myself and Everest would be challenging even if the air pressure was sea level and it was 70 degrees all the way up.

They should put polar bears and snowball cannons on everest if everyone is climbing it.
Need to increase the jeopardy

I have no issues with people doing something they love even if it kills them. I do have HUGE issues with destroying someplace because you want to go. If you can’t leave it the way you (originally) found it, you can’t go.

I just don't feel the need to place myself in that kind of DANGER. There are SO MANY things you can do instead that won't KILL you.

honestly, dont know much about mountain climbing, but its something i HAVE to try at some point in my life, climbing Everest is probably staying on my bucket list, though the chance i actually do it? not to high, unlike the mountain

So before the two outsiders climbed it, the sherpa hadn't climbed it before?

2024 and it's just as bad. I imagine future archeologists will assume all the bodies are sacrifices for better weather in the end of the climate change wars.

As a man who was born a woman who identifies as a Greek god, the true pinnacle is Mt Olympus. I traverse it at least twice a day.😂😂😂

Yes I would climb it one day or die trying
