Sure, if you do it, you’ll be able to brag about the accomplishment and annoy your friends forever, but it is not a fun climb
Moreover, the trek is so dangerous that a lot of people die attempting to summit Everest. From the inexperienced people who keep climbing it because they can afford the travel costs to the truth about the deadliest part of the mountain, let’s take a look at why people keep dying on Mount Everest.

Mountaineering isn’t dangerous for mountaineers, it’s dangerous for rich people who aren’t mountaineers and have no business on that mountain. Just because you do yoga every day and drink your ginger chai, doesn’t mean you’re a mountaineer.

"Oi matey, get a wriggle on! We haven't got all soddin day!" 😂😂
I'm a retired recreational mountaineer and have summited some worthy peaks in Alaska, the Pacific Northwest, Canada and South America. For every summit accomplishment, I've failed to make it to the top 5 times more often because of bad weather, unstable rock/snow conditions, technical difficulties beyond my skills. Peaks above 18,000 feet even with acclimatization training I turned into a helpless creature barely able to descend without assistance from my mates and that taught me a lesson. Don't push beyond your limits. So I never aspired to do world class mountains.
The oxygen supplemented fixed ropes on Everest and other mountains have become a carnival of pay to play rich supposed athletes looking for bragging rights. Sorry, I never would stand in line sucking on a tank for a summit.
My summits were modest but every one of them was a wonderful experience and an accomplishment done in alpine style which I treasure. Can't brag on them but my mates and me share the memories, some of them pretty epic adventures and that's enough for me.
You do.not brag..you judge.
@@joanmarietsultrimparkin1821 I mean kinda true though right? I enjoyed the comment/ story.
Well your braver than me
Yeah you tell these people it's not worth the money man.. People act like oh I want to get a selfie oh yeah cool what bullshit stupid thinking is that.. I think the people that say I am going to get a selfie on mount Everest is the ones that don't fucking live..
Can anyone honestly say they successfully conquered Mount Everest if they have to be rescued? If they even make it to the top then they put dozens of other lives at risk in order to get home. What is the point by now? Just so they can have a better story than coworkers who wouldn't care if the dropped dead on the street tomorrow? First question after hearing of their death? I wounder who gets their office?
imagine all the sherpa who died setting things up for these inexperienced tourists and they dont even get mentioned
It's sad how true your comment is
The plural of “sherpa” is “sherpas”.
Who cares about them lol
@@poean2 the sherpas
Because that's why they are paid so well
I thoroughly enjoyed the thoughtful words of the Sherpa that you included in this video: the single word 'Yes'. Bravo Journalism.
Was just going to say the same thing.
I can't help but feel that he may have been misrepresented. Since "Yes" doesn't really seem like enough verbage for a likely complex answer to that question.
lol.
I've seen the whole clip. They didn't really misrepresent him. He was complaining about too many inexperienced people being given permits and how it puts sherpas at risk. I would say this was probably kept brief to avoid a copyright strike.
And it does sound like the most convincing yes. Like he was following with a "but".
"" HA...... HA....... HA.... " 🙄
I respect the Sherpa that climbed Everest 20 times, I couldn’t even climb out of my bed in the morning
I think he got to 21 times before hanging up the crampons
He made it 26 times today

It's a beautiful experience if you go to the base camp but anything higher than that is dangerous
Edward Robinson the base camp trek is amazing, as is the Annapurna base camp trek. Some of my best experiences in my life. Utterly amazing and beautiful.
But I hope to go further and climb some of those 8000m mountains some day (Everest doesn’t really appeal though).
Agree.. looks like torture
Just makes you think how hard it was for those mountaineers to climb Everest in the 1920s...
@@paramjeetsingh1038 george mallory made multiple attempts in the 1920s. now if he summitted is a different story, but just think about their equipment etc compared to modern day climbers bro.

you have a very high chance of survival if Nepal denies your climbing permit request !!!!
that is true
Then there's China...
loonafan Nepal is a poor country,yes it is but it doesn't totally rely on tourism as a main source of economy.Remittance and Agriculture is the main source of Nepalese economy
You have a very high chance of survival if you do not apply for your climbing permit request when you are not fit enough.
You have a 100% chance of survival climbing Everest on the Tibetan side , because the Chinese won’t issue anyone a permit.
That mountain is saying: "stop climbing me you morons"
Indeed! Playing with their lives...Jesus
This mountain is meant to look at from a distance but not climb,its crazy that people are losing their lives trying to reach the top!! Human bodies are not meant to withstand those conditions!
Regina Novy Some bodies can withstand it.. people have climbed it without oxygen masks
@@ecasey91 That is amazing that some people have climbed it without oxygen..they must be in excellent health and prepared their bodies with training..☺I love the beauty of Everest....
@@reginanovy7225 The Sherpas are so popular and do everything for the climbers because they have found that they are naturally acclimitized to heights and don't need supplemental oxygen. They're from that region.
It's insane to me that people will risk their lives just to climb a mountain. Egos,pride, and money cloud the minds of climbers and their guides.

Interviewer:- Do you think things need to change?
Expert Sherpa:- yes
She has cut the rest of opinion
Nepal should increase the price tag for the permits .. from $11 000 to $30 000 or even $50 000. In the end they'll make same profits but it will solve the traffic issue.
Don't think that would be enuff I would raise it to well over a million just for the permit , then make the guide service go up a mil or so make it unobtaiable to the average moron like me and that will solve the problem ,I think !!! But there are an awful lot of stupid rich people
@@tompatrick3281 Then you put the sherpas out of a job, which wouldn't be good because it's the best way for most of them to make money.
@@shanepolo4442 don't know who pays the sharpas but I'm sure that out of that 2 or 3 mil someone will cover their pay
@@tompatrick3281 The expeditions pay sherpas. People pay an expedition company which then hires sherpas and other staff. If you make it $2-3 million then there will be so few people who can afford it that there won't be enough job opportunities for sherpas.

Why do people die on Mount Everest? Because people keep climbing Mount Everest.
Jason Folkes yup, sums it up
@DuchessDiz You're an idiot lol
We could blow it up if you like.
Hehehe opps...looks who is talking un confident
Beside climber we are also gurkhas...
The sensible thing might be if you only get to attempt Everest if you have a certificate of having summited three other 7,500 or 8,000 meter mountains already (of which there are dozens in the Himalayas). Everest would thus be reserved for mountaineers who have earned (not just paid for) their chance, and Sherpas would be able to get to work on the other less crowded mountains as well.
This would only lead to mass commercialization of other easier 8000ers. Like Cho Oyu. Not solving the issue, but making it worse. People will still want to climb Everest, because...well, it's the highest point on Earth. All this talk about putting requirements for some experience among climbers is fantasy. Nepalese government likes it the way it is, it pays well. The fact that it is deadly honestly only increases a potential customer base, as people would want to brag about how dangerous it was being carried up the mountain by 5 sherpas. If K2 was not so inaccessible in terms of just getting to the foot of it it'd be commercialized too. Precisely because it is so dangerous.
There is 14 total mountains over 8000m. Not dozens.
@@urikayan2368 If you check my original post you'll see I said "7,500 or 8,000 meter mountains". I said that because I hadn't a clue how many are over 8,000 but knew it had to be a small number.
Stop trying to make sense. Lol
What's to stop someone from just getting a buddy or two to vouch for them, photoshopping a good pic or two showing them on Annapurna or something, to get around that requirement?
Yes it seems like a massive achievement, however I draw the line where and when there is not enough oxygen to breathe. It is literally Everest telling us "you are not welcome here"
I asked my Mom. She said most deaths on Everest are due to 'probably not wearing a vest'.
Free advice from an expert.
My mom said that people die on Everest is because they didn't wear a toque.
Stupid is as stupid does my momma always say.
Could those be the new ones that inflate for a higher survival chance in an avalanche?
My mom said because they're all spending too much time on their smartphones
Or wearing a mask? I just had to..
I died 3 times just watching this.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂
I remember when I was young climbing Everest was seen as such a brave and heroic act. Conquering fears through hard work, adversity, and so forth.
Nowadays climbing Everest seems like such a selfish, douchebag act. "Oh you want to climb the mountain that has hundreds of Sherpas that can ferry your gear up to basecamps for you. So brave..."
I agree but the sherpas choose their job, no one is forcing them to do any of this. They make good money bringing all those douchebags up there and are fully aware of the risks that come with that. At any point in time they could change their job, but if you ask me they're not willing to give up their good income... I don't think we should be pitying the sherpas yk, its not that black and white.
Fat wallets for not confer heroic courage.
Here's a solution! In order to be granted access to climb Everest, you have to have already climbed K2 and another 8000er of your choice! (preferably Annapurna I lol)
even though they are way harder to climb
More likely to die climbing K2. 95% of Everest's "climbers" couldn't do it.
Those are harder to climb
@@charliegraff9614 harder? Yes. More likely to kill? Not quite. Everest is brutal due not to difficult terrain, but the sheer size of the damn hunk of rock. There's 200+ corpses up there for a reason
Imagine going to climb something that has "dead zone" on it
Vyansya all mountains over 8000m have death zones. From 8000 up is the death zone
Too much money and too much time on their hands. I hear bungee jumping over an active volcano is loads of fun as well.
Shadysif Lol, lol, lol, 😂😂😂😂😂
shadysif, It's all fun and games .... until the bungee Breaaaaaks ........ Oh No .... Ouch!
Actually I think you can do that, either bungee jumping or zip lining. I saw it here on YT. I believe it was either Costa Rica or Chili.
I've been thinking of taking up parkour. Falling from 60 stories looks like a blast too.
Shadysif Great comment!! 💯
Definitely not worth dying for. I'm not a lover of cold weather and this video is the closest I'll ever get to Everest
I know one thing for sure. I will never die on Mt Everest.
I’ll stick with sea level thank you.
Me, too. I hate it when my ears pop.
You can easily cover till camp 3.
I have no idea why anyone would. But anyway, they shouldn't allow so many people on the mountain. That makes it more dangerous.
Also if the Sherpa says go back, the climber should go back with them. One Sherpa lost his fingers to frostbite, because the climber he took wouldn't turn back, because he said he had paid a lot of money, and the Sherpa didn't want to ruin the Sherpa reputation.
Well if the Sherpa said go back, he should go back on the condition he will be allowed to climb back up again when the weather improves for free. Hopefully this will help save some lives.
@@lenac3587 problem is, it costs them a lot of money and effort each time. If the Sherpas had a price plan that included the possibility of several trips, the cost of lives might be averted.
Dumbass they pay a small fortune to climb it 😂😂😂

Are you still alive ?
Idk if I heard it right. But can u imagine climbing mt Everest once let alone twice let alone 20 times. That’s insane.
It makes me so angry that going on Mt. Everest isn’t regulated and just about anyone with money can go on it. It should be for EXPERIENCED climbers only. So many people are dieing for no reason and it’s ridiculous. For me who is experienced with climbing I don’t even know if Everest is on my list of mountains I want to summit anymore, ridiculous and upsetting.
It's all part of tourism. If stupid noobs are willing to pay so much money just to click selfies on Mount Everest rather then enjoying the experience then you can't blame the people who happily provide the service. I think it as the perfect lesson for these noobs not only since they waste their hard earned money but may be their own lives.
@@radeonblue1816 I started laughing when you said “ stupid noobs “ reminds me of my league of legends days 😂. But yea, people are responsible for their own choices so they don’t need to regulate it. People need to respect their limits

@@zoegeorge9920 Then that says something about the way you live. You don't take serious risks and live too comfortably
More satisfying goal is to help the needy 👍
Also the longer your stuck in those lines, above 8000 meters. the more likely you are to get high altitude pulmonary edema. Not just from lack of bottled oxygen, but also from being at that altitude for too long.
@Tango Alpha Charlie yes correct. thanks.
I take back what I complained about a 2 hour wait on Expedition Everest in 100 degrees. Least I can get off the line lol.
It's an open graveyard up there, there's dead bodies laying about all over the place, some have been there so long they've effectively become route markers, pointing the way to the top

@@TheJer1963 lmaoo fax

They need to put in place. Age restrictions and experience restrictions. Most of the climbers don't have much experience.
Exactly, a 60 year old man should not be climbing Everest, just sounds like a deathwish.
@@hoodlumnano2986 Why should not he? People want to do it exactly because they can die there. The risk and thrill is an important part of this.
@@CallToTheLight that sounds dumb why would you risk dying just to have fun I’d rather stay at home and play normal sports lol
In 10,000 years, people are going to find all the bodies wearing weird boots and clothing and come up with all kinds of theories on why they are up there
No

That’s to bad humans are destined to be destroyed in less than 750 years
Not too hard to figure that one out honestly...
Lol in 10.000 years this will still be the tallest climbable mountain on Earth, no theories to be made
These same people would enter the INDY 500 if they could buy their way in! Same situation with Kilimanjaro in Africa, the 'anybody' can do it mentality!
Johan Fouche some people do it for other reasons than to just “prove they can”. A lot of mountaineers find solace in the environment and feel in a completely different realm, away from the hustle and bustle, and pollution of the cities.
I loved doing the Everest base camp trek, or being up any mountain. And it’s for the same reasons I go hiking in the jungle or swimmng miles out to sea - it isn’t so much to prove I can, but to get away from people and see nature close up.
that lady completing her 6th accent saying they should reduce the number of climbing permits .. geez

Narcissistic? A woman? In 2020? Say it isn’t so! 😮
I have already climbed the Mount Everest 2 times now. I can say it is a horrific and amazing experience at the same time. You are afraid to die and yet you want to go to the top. When you're climbing, you don't think about what is going to happen after you go to the top.

To us who vowed never to even think about climbing Mt Everest
If you can't set your own fixed ropes, you shouldn't be on any mountain, let alone ones that are 29000 feet above sea level. Most people who die on the mountain I do not feel sorry for. They're rich narcissists who are in way over their heads, while sherpas and guides are doing the real work.
adampincente209 ☝🏻what he said 👌🏻💯
I mean they are doing it for extra money which these narcissists and rich are bringing them so it’s win win for both. They wanted to create this fun place for them. They aren’t being forced too.
@@user-qk7lh4wl6e You are very wrong about them not being forced to do so. The sherpas are extremely underpreviliged people. They don't want to risk their lives so that some rich kid can post a selfie on facebook. They don't have education or the opportunities to do anything else other than risk their lives for feeding their children.
@@aryanpareek770 what other occupation would the sherpa’s have if not to guide climbers on Everest?? How to you suppose they would feed their families? Im honestly not arguing i am with you they are under appreciated but to assume they are not benefiting from the tourists is naive.
@@CLTHIKER If they are educated they can do whatever they want, be it a doctor, engineer, carpenter, blacksmith, potter, etc. They earn very little compared to the risk they take every time they go on the mountains. Most of the money goes to the Climbing consultants and foriegn guides. Would you prefer to play russian roulette every day if you could earn twice the money you earn now?
Maybe if they took all of those guide cables down and the ladders, it would only be extremely talented people climbing that mountain and it would be a lot less there and a lot less dying.
Yeah thats the point. Mt Everest is not dangerous. It's the people who think 80 000 Dollars will bring them up. Allthoug Everest is more like a guided walk on 8800 m you still need to be very fit
hearing about the death zone made me cry. thank you
Happy to be watching this on CZcams.
IT is awesome to see people so motivated and hyped up they are willing to die on a mountain!! If I had an extra 100,000 MT Everest would not be the place to go
I can imagine sherpas up at the summit selling wingsuits.
That looks like soooooo much fun!
A Brit named George Mallory, 37, when asked why he wanted to climb Mt. Everest, his reply, the famous saying, "Because it's there." Died along with Andrew Irvine on June 8, 1924, they were last scene about 800 feet from the Summit, when a storm struck and poor visibility kept those below from seeing whether they made it to the Summit or not. Mallory's body was found in 1999, 75 years later, Irvine's body is yet to be found. Mallory said to his wife, "I will leave your picture on top," his papers were found, but his wife's picture wasn't with them. Did he Summit? A camera that is possibly with Irvine's body might tell the story of the 1st Summit, if not Edmund Hillary, New Zealander, was the 1st, on May 29, 1953. Cheers Mate!

Climbing Mt Everest will always be somewhat difficult and risky. The heavy traffic puts everyone in danger; it’s even worse for the less experienced and/or physically fit. This is not a place for anyone with a pulse and some cash.
Because of privileged types who think their money is an automatic airlift to the top when actually they're depending on Sherpas to do the real work.
Well with enough money it can literally be a helicopter or airplane flying you over the top.
I don’t know but envy of people with money seems like all the rage nowadays. I don’t think it’s a smart move paying for this adventure because of the risk hey if they want to do that and maybe die they know the risk.
@@edwinkubena9944 It's not the envy of people with money, but the disdain for those who have money but don't want to put in the hard work that it takes to truly climb the mountain. They want others to set up the ropes and do all the heavy lifting for them. Therein lies the problem.
How to survive on Everest in 2019
long way:
1. buy a machete/sword/gun/anything that unalives humans
2. climb Everest until u get to traffic jam
3. k*** the rest of your way up the mountain with the excuse: "I didn't want to die"
4. take selfie at summit
5.die on the way down anyway

I got altitude sickness when i was a kid on a snow boarding trip. Worst feeling of my life throwing up. It was a small mountain. I cant imagine everest. The only way to feel better is to go back down the mountain.
what a cheerful video
Mt. Fuji is the best. Gift shops along the trail.
I would love to climb this mountain I have been wanting to for like 5-7 years now but screw that if there is that many people
My motto is "just because it's there,doesn't mean u need to go up it"..
I watched the Discovery series on people wanting to summit Mt. Everest, I couldn’t believe what people were willing to put themselves through to reach the top, no thanks.
It used to be a feat to reach the summit, now anyone can do it if they have the right amount of money.
It’s really sad what has happened to this majestic place 🙏🇨🇦
the movie based on the 1996 disaster was incredibly sad all the more because its factual and has happened to others since. Beck Weathers is a tough SOB to have survived. Other mountains can be as deadly of course.
Irony of his last name, as a blizzard killed so many, even expert climbers.
I like the videos of those hiking just to basecamp and back. All of those cool towns and stops. Its one of my fantasies. I hear people sometimes even have to get a helicopter out hiking to basecamp due to edema.
Imagine the amount of trash left at this mountain during all the expedictions
Yeah I think I’ll go to Hawaii or something I’m not gonna go and kill myself on a damn mountain
Hawaii has mountains and volcanoes they can climb.
Is that because once they've climbed it, they stop thinking? Think they've done it? Great video😉😊
I like taking risks and definitely this is on my life...

To heck with climbing snowy mountains. I climbed Huaya Picchu in Peru and it was amazing! Beautiful with just a hint of danger. Everything was so verdant, flowers everywhere, we saw hummingbirds and a giant centipede on the way back down. U don't see much flora or fauna on a bleak ice covered rock like Everest and u aint gonna catch hypothermia and frostbite climbing a lovely temperate mountain in Peru. Everest sounds like a punishment to me.
