- 2023 was a busy season on Everest. There were hundreds of climbers all attempting to reach the top of the worlds tallest peak. One of those climbers was a deaf-mute mountaineer Muhammad Hawari Hashim. Hawari would try to achieve his dream of reaching the top of Everest, but his life would drastically change....this is his story.

The trash on the Mountain shows disrespect for this majestic Mountain.
People can't be trusted to look after this planet let one this wonder of this world , climbing should be banned until everyone of the people who summited go up and clean ALL the rubbish they dumped !
Yeah.. banning things has worked so well for everything else.. why not? 🤦🏼♂️
If you got any better ideas let's hear them....
@timothyseeger5296
Trash ziplines. It's pretty cheap to make.
@@FullCircleTravishow about burning what they can, fire is pretty cheap to make
You shouldn't call anyone on the radio from The Summit. The Summit is only halfway. You didn't succeed until you get back down alive. It's just like a world record motorcycle jump. It doesn't matter if you make the distance if you crash and die on the landing.
Yup. Successful Summit.....not a successful climb. There's a difference.
Exactly.
Edit: And getting down can be harder than going up
Absolutely 💯
Evel Knievel crashed on the landing ramp jumping the fountains at Caesar's Palace, but still cleared the fountains... there's only one summit, & it ain't at the bottom...if they got to the top, they summited, if they made it down, then they made a successful full climb...
@@Road_Rash Evel Knievel was not credited with a successful jump at Caesars Palace. That didn't happen until his son Robbie Knievel successfully jumped Caesars without crashing.
I cannot imagine paying more than $100K to stand in line on a mountain like Everest. I don’t even want to stand in line at the grocery store much less in freezing conditions with little oxygen, avalanche threats, crevasses, and no fires. F that.
People are strange
Lol. Same
Oh I have those conditions at my grocery store!!
Yeah, it is like Disney World.
Its more like 50k
All that garbage on the mountain is a sad reflection of the character of climbers.
Nature lovers who had a deep respect for the mountain could not ever treat the place with such contempt.
The Nepali
government won’t regulate,therefore nothing will change
I understand that when there's a sick climber it's all hands on deck, but I don't understand why his so-called team left a young climber to find his way down from Csmp 4 alone. Surely one more or less wouldn't make much difference for the emergency when there was a whole group, but the buddy system makes a BIG difference in everything from flying planes to wilderness survival.
That's why you really need good team Management.
He can't be allowed to leave its client.
That is not understable to commit that many people to help somebody that was clearly doing really poorly.
Sherpas abandon climbers all the time , it is not unusual for this to happen.
Perhaps they can introduce the rule that anyone who want to attempt Mt. Everest must do minimum two peaks 6500-8000 in Nepal before applying for Everest permit.
This way Nepal would reduce the traffic on Mt. Everest.... but country would maintain permit income and jobs for porters plus related income... such measure would result in spreading the numbers of climbers to 'lower' peaks.... and due to the fact that many less experienced climbers would would give up before 'qualifying', it would reduce numbers on the Everest
Who's gonna enforce that, which country? You can't police multiple countries.
@@aftersexhighfives "who want to attempt Mt. Everest must do minimum two peaks 6500-8000 in Nepal"... IN NEPAL .... so Nepal would enforce of course
I think thats an exellent idea!
Might just reduce the number of capable but not wealthy climbers that can't bear the cost of the additional peaks whilst still allowing rich inexperienced climbers to get carried up as they already do
@@bap175 There is no ideal solution to "limit number of Everest permits" vs "keep income stream, jobs for porters and general number of climbers spending big bucks in Nepal".
One day I really wanna visit Mount Everest. Climbing to the basecamp, looking around, picking up as much trash as I can carry and then climb back down. Then I can always say, that I've climbed on Mt. Everest.
Nepal collects hefty climbing fees and they can clean it up from the revenues, but they are not bothered.
@@Ann-ut6jvthats fair 20k a permit or something could buy a clean-up crew
@@Ann-ut6jvNepal is such a corrupt country
@@KatyWellsKingslanduntil you do it, you will know why.
@@KatyWellsKingsland you just dont wake up one day and decide to climb the tallest peak in the world lol. You start off small and gradually move up. Throughout the process you fall in love with the meaning of mountaineering. By then, you have gained much experienced and understand the lifestyle and consequences. Some people choose to live their life at their own risk and others choose to live safe under a rock. In the end, we all end up in the same place. Live your life to the fullest, you wont live forever.
Each climber pays an extra $4K for a 'clean up fee', which apparently never gets spent on clean up crews, but they feel like they paid for the privilege of littering... the fee is actually refundable if the climber brings down at least 18 kilos, about 35-40 pounds, the average left by each climber, of trash with them for disposal... doesn't look like there's been many refunds...or clean ups... I know there was at least one clean up mission several years ago, & they brought down several tons of garbage, but all that has been replaced since, plus even more...if something isn't done soon, it'll be a health hazard just going to the mountain...base camp is absolutely filthy... like camping in a garbage dump/sewer...in addition to garbage, there's literally 💩 everywhere...
I think that is a great idea. Idk how anyone could litter like that. It was shocking!
Why should locals risk their lives (yes people did die) to clean up after others? A clean mountain is not more important than the lives of brown people no matter how much it bothers western sensitivities. Let them continue trashing the mountain until they are climbing on trash as long as no locals die cleaning
My opinion won’t be popular but I feel all climbing of Everest should be suspended. Clean up the mountain and regulate the number of climbers. What’s the point of climbing in a traffic jam? And living a few weeks in garbage and human excrement 🤢
Leave only your footsteps and take only your memories....
The issue is that the extra 35 to 40 lbs of weight to carry down that trash would kill a lot of climbers. Why is the government cheating and stealing the money instead of using the hefty fees to clean the mountains? If they pay for a trash service, the trash service should be provided.
The mountains have no laws, the mountain police do not exist at such heights. Look at the climbers, they have no problem littering the mountain and copying each other's learned behaviors.
Makes you wonder if anyone has ever been intentionally shoved off the edge of the mountain at 8000m+....
Honestly, if I were a climber, I don't know that I would want to traverse amongst the bodies.
I was SHOCKED when my son showed me the pictures of folks climbing & standing IN LINE….??!! AND all the TRASH folks are leaving all over the mountain??!!!
Now I’m just MAD about it…. Seems like a rich person tourist opportunity to me.😑
I don't pray for the climbers in 2024. Not the 'tourist' climbers anyway, just for the brave sherpas.
Why are the Sherpas brave but the climbers not? It was Sherpas that stole all the gear from the Western companies. You are naive , have you ever been to Nepal?
@@bradleyhalfacre7992 actually I have been there several times. I only go as far as the base camps. I'm smart enough to know my limitations. Unlike some of the types who think they are 'mountaineers' by latching on to fixed ropes all the way up. Yes I do believe the sherpa's are brave. They go up and down that mountain every year before climbing season fixing the ropes and ladders. Constantly fixing the ladders through the Khumbu icefall as the glacier shifts. Going up and down the mountain taking supplies and oxygen and everything else that the tourist needs. They also are the ones that are often involved in the inevitable rescues. They are the ones that have a larger loss of life per capita on the mountain. Go up to the memorial house high up in the Everest region and look at the pictures of all the sherpa's that have perished up there and tell me they aren't brave.
Well I pray for humanity and especially Greta thumberg
Death by EGO. Anyone with children who chooses to risk it all should be considered abusive and not praised.
When you consider that for the Sherpa, Mount Everest/Sagarmatha is a sacred deity, seeing how it is treated and commercialized is truly heartbreaking
Yet they take the money and don't ban the money. Some money isn't good money and all everest money is bad money. The sherpa are the crux of the problem. They could stop this. They like the money more.
The Sherpas are now commercializing it as much or more as anyone else is.
And who can blame them? Not having money makes you want to have money!@@Ghostshadows306
The Sherpas are the ones exploiting & profiting off the mountain Lol.
Don't take all the 'sacred mountain" stuff too seriously. If you go there you will see that the Nepalis treat it just the same as Westerners.
Seeing a line of climbers as long as that and seeing all that trash just upsets me and makes me dislike tourists. It's akin to a Starbucks drive thru in the morning before work
Extreme mountain climbing is a special interest of mine and your channel is one of- if not the- best on youtube for covering alpinism disasters. Keep up the good work and your sub count will explode some day!
The overcrowding depicted in this video is absolutely disgusting.
Thank you for posting this video
Not to make light of his death, but "records" like "first Malaysian deaf mute" are meaningless.
Exactly. It's ridiculousl.
That record can be an inspiration to other young people who are like him.
The mountain needs to be closed.. cleaned of everything..hey you brought it there..take it out..then end this nonsense
The climber did not take it there, the Nepali mules and helicopters and porters took it there.
The correct statistic would be deaths per human peak attempts and per human on mountain, plus deaths per non experienced vs experienced climbers.
They should just make a cable cart to the summit and end the suffering.
How sad and unfair he was forced to go down alone and lost his life just because someone else was late and got sick. Sure they know the risks but I would never go on that mountain way too many tourists makes it lot more unnessesarily risky, this many people definitely doesn't have to die.
These mountaineers are constantly chasing records that arent real records. "I want to be the first from Highland Park elementary school to summit on a Wednesday, wearing a chicken suit. No body gives a shit. Being the first deaf/mute from Malaysia is not a real record. these mountaineers are just legends in their own minds,
I love this channel. 🖤💯😎
Money has been valued over life since the dawn of man. The truth is… people make a choice to climb knowing they could die. The government isn’t gonna turn down permit money. It’s up to the people to decide to save their own lives and not go. I feel bad for the people left behind.
So he decended from camp 4 on his own. What could go wrong?.......🤔
If you have kids, make them a favor and do not play your life on objectively dangerous terrain, no matter the altitude. Otherwise, do as you wish.
Great video(s)!
I fully understand the desire to climb this mountain... and others. as it's quite a feeling of adventure and accomplishment to climb even much smaller mountains... not to mention the communing with nature.
I wonder, why aren't the helicopters used to remove the garbage? Seems like an obvious solution. With each trip down they could attach a small load to the skids in one way or another... 100 to 200 lbs perhaps...
And why not pay the Sherpas and porters more? None of this tourist adventurism would be possible without them.
Because wherever there’s a government, there’s theft, fraud, and f*cking people who do the work over.
Helicopters can’t reach most of those heights and are also incredibly expensive
Communing with nature? More like bargaining with a killer.
"An entire country praying". Well, how did that work out? Seriously, prayer impacts nothing.
There are over 200 bodies there. I can't understand why anyone would put their life at risk.
This is easy to fix. If you can't carry your own gear, you can't climb Everest. It is that simple.
There is some very bad juju on that mountain.
If by juju you mean avalanches, hypoxia, extreme cold, gravity …then yes
This sad story underscores an important reality about high-altitude mountaineering: reaching a summit is a grueling, laborious task that pushes one’s adaptive physiology to (or past) its limit…. utterly and completely exhausting….but you still have to climb back down, immediately. I suspect many novices fail to account for how dangerous the descent will be.
I wish there were more videos showing the dead people stuck there.
Companies that collect money should pay to clean up the mountain trash!
Climbers typically start the final ascent to the summit in the pitch dark. But they must turn around by 2 PM if they haven't reached the summit because otherwise they would find themselves climbing down in the pitch dark. Pitch dark going up....good. Pitch dark going down...bad.
I think there should be roaming groups of medical personnel on the mountain who would administer aid and comfort to those in need and euthanize those whose suffering and torment prove to be too much.
Why cant ppl just go ro nepal, take a hike at safe location and get a selfie w the Everest at the back?
If they really loved nature and the mountain, they would not embark on an expedition to summit if it means you will definitely be leaving rubbish behind and the mountain worse than you found it.
I think every climber thats missing got hit either from a avalanche or fell into a deep crevasse.
Alan Arnette is a great source of info!!! 💯💯
Instead of the total number of deaths, I think it would be useful to know what proportion of climbs result in death. That would give you a better idea of the risk. If the number of climbers increases, the number of deaths would also be expected to rise. That doesn't mean that it is any more dangerous though.
About one out of every hundred climbers will die.
Death by accolades
We need to land woman on the moon
The Malaysian team proved that anything is not possible.
It’s not up to Nepal to give up its major source of its economy because those who have no business trying to summit die
This guy had zero 8000 summits. He only went to base camp at Annapurna!!! It’s ridiculous. That he even tried this. Everest cannot be your first 8000ers unless you are an experienced “full time” mountaineer.
This ending is no surprise.
Why would you climb in such an overcrowded environment? Mountains and climbing is about connection with nature.
I enjoy climbing mountains on Roblox thats as close I'm going to get. It looks so peaceful but way too many people climbing at one time it looks like.
It’s really disturbing how terrible people are!!
What do we need to do for us to get videos more often??
Again... Ag Askandar Ampuan Yaacub. His name is Ag Askandar. U keep saying yaacub. That his father name
A few years ago Australia banned climbing on Uluru. Its seemed inconceivable at the time but looking back it was the right decision. Tourists now go to look at it, not climb it. There is no purpose to climbing Everest, its been done and each summiting serves no new purpose. We are now in a race to find "firsts" first vegan, first woman with a pacemaker, first deaf mute, what next? First deaf vegan with a pacemaker? Its getting ridiculous. Time was when people went to Africa to shoot the wildlife, now they go to photograph it, and it works. We learned that you didn't have to kill the lion to enjoy it. That Nepal relies so heavily on income from climbers on Everest is not an argument to keep climbing, its an argument for Nepal to diversify its tourism industry.
I’m not superstitious but mt Everest is something I wouldn’t fuck with. The trash and dead bodies on something that should be sacred makes me feel like at the very least karma will visit those that go up there and stomp all over the mountain. The lack of respect puts lives at incredible risk. The mountain will stake claim to whatever it wants in return.
I wonder who’s behind the thefts? So much of the equipment is quite expensive….hmmmmmm…..🧐
There's only one climber who disappeared in this video, unfortunately. The use of the word "Several" is odd
No , this man was only one of several that disappeared and never seen again at this point in time.
I've asked before, why can't they burn the trash ?
Uh...no oxygen?
@@DeeDee-ot2lybring tanks of nitrous oxide up. It’ll burn.
Why aren't these people required to remove what they bring? That's just a lack of respect for the mountain and the people of Nepal.
Mountain Russian Roulette is all this is! Ridiculous!
"Climbing Everest is now safer than ever"? Am I missing something here? I mean, what changed? Is it the terrain, the weather, or has the level of atmospheric pressure and oxygen in the death zone suddenly increased?🤔
There are permanent ropes, canned oxygen readily available, improvements in gear, and more experienced guides and sherpas.
This is Nepall'ing😢😅😢
*THESE ARE their STORIES
Its yall faults, you went to the mountain, it didnt come to you. You knew the risks, your choice
Several is not the same as one. This video discusses ONE climber. Odd error to make.
There won't be a 2024 season. Come January 3rd and onward, you'll soon know why.
You English usage in this video is confusing (and honestly just wrong). You keep using future tense of things; not past tense. It doesn’t make sense. I can go back and watch it again if you need or want examples.
Stick to snowdonia for my climbing, some great climbing and no dickheads
Mass market practice not mountaineering.
need to stop trying to rescue people from places like this if you are gunna be dumb you gotta be tough stop wasting our money on stupid people
Stop wasting our time with stupid comments !
Actually, it's the family that pays to bring bodies down...$70K+... even if they did use tax dollars, it would be Nepal's tax dollars, so unless you're paying taxes in Nepal, you don't have a dog in that fight...
@@adambane1719 ratio
Why do they allow climbers on mountains that are very dangerous.
And why are they calling this mountain climbing with ladders and fixed ropes with people standing for hours an "expedition" 😂
Close the mountain, the people climbing don't give a damn about Everest
Neither do the Nepalese.
No thank you!
I am always bemused by "person X proved that disabled people can do anything" followed by "btw, they died".
As someone who's disabled, we CAN'T do anything able bodied people can...if we could, we wouldn't be disabled...🖖🏿😎👍🏿
@@Road_RashI’m not disabled, and I know I can’t climb Everest.
@@DrDeuteron Me too. I guess they DO prove that Everest is an equal opportunity killer. It only cares if you have enough brain cells to know when to turn back.
Tbf, plenty of able bodied people die on the mountain too.
@@Road_Rash no, you can't do everything you could have done if you had been able-bodied. Doesn't mean you can't accomplish more than most able-bodied people
easy. no 2024 summits unless you personally haul 50kg of other peoples garbage downhill. all camps would be cleaned up within a month.
At first I thought you said the one disabled climber is blind & deaf (while actually deaf & mute) & I wondered to myself why the hell someone who can neither see nor hear would want to climb Everest as what could they possibly get out of it??? They wouldn’t be able to see the sites nor experience any auditory elements (though I would imagine that would solely be the blasting wind & the sounds of others present anyway so nothing exciting). Also how could it ever be possible to climb Everest if you’re blind & even more so if you’re dead too as you could neither see nor hear any directions & you wouldn’t know if an accident / tragedy occurred especially if it meant others’ deaths & perhaps even the rest of his team so then he’s absolutely screwed being alone, or if there was a different severe situation like an approaching avalanche he would have no idea it was coming & I imagine he would be abandoned as the others would prioritize their own survival, that is unless he was tied to another climber though that seems incredibly dangerous as an accident for one means an accident for both inevitably. I realize now that he isn’t blind of course. I guess being deaf & mute isn’t too big of a deal, as in it’s not extremely more dangerous (though still more so than with an able bodied person), absolutely impractical, or just downright unachievable. As long as there is a translator present &/or the development & use of physical (bodily) symbols especially in the case of emergency of different kinds then it could most certainly be possible. My one thought though is that if there is a very significant & immediate emergency, the person(s) designated to communicate with him might be in such a panic that they fail to do so & very possible prioritize themselves & abandon him. He would also need to be able to communicate if he was experiencing any trouble or feeling sick insofar that his symptoms are not blatantly obvious. I think in general that Everest is all about ego, & you’re already putting yourself & others in danger - especially the native Sherpas who see very little money for having to constantly risk their lives for arrogant reckless people - & if you have any issues that makes it any more difficult & dangerous then you are being especially selfish & reckless with others lives & obviously your own but it’s the effects you could have on others that really makes you a top tier narcissist if your prestige matters more than the lives of others.
The Disney-fication of the World… don’t be surprised when ski lifts take “climbers” to the top…
2024 is 100 years , from Mallory and Irvine, 1924 climb! I bet the Chinese will open, the North Ridge Route! After scouring it, the last 3 years! Looking for Irvine! Chinese were not, the first people on the summit! Sorry, but Mallory made it! He just had an accident, on his way down!
I mean its almost legitimately impossible for them to have negotiated the steps forward and then back with the equipment and the attrition they had at the time. It is true that people have done unimaginable things on the mountains but even Conrad Anker while looking for their corpses has said that he believes they didn't make it past the steps. The climb is simply too difficult and is at a ridiculous altitude for how technical it is. Even, to this day. People navigate the steps using fixed-ladders instead of climbing the rocks. They may have had the skill and will to do it, perhaps but they certainly didn't have the equipment for it. They were wearing regular shirts, thick leather jackets, boots and had one hemp-rope to go between the two of them. What they needed was alpine-climbing to have been invented and implemented to the Himalayas which came decades later.

Only after French expedition to Annapurna where Himalayan mountaineering opened up. World had to wait for somebody to conceptualize altitude-camps, make working oxygen masks and optimize logistics. After that it was relatively easy-work to climb each one. Harder part was getting the permits for them. Politics played a bigger role than skill in deciding who got to conquer which Himalayan peak when. I fully believe Terray and Herzog would have made it to Everest with their group and strategy. Them successfully ascending Annapurna, the deadliest of the bunch is phenomenal. It took people a few years after they climbed Annapurna for Everest to be climbed but it took other people almost 40 years to climb up Annapurna again for the second time.
Everest isn't the tallest mountain in the World
So what mountain is?🤔 (below sea level mountains don’t count)
Whatever...
@@DeeDee-ot2ly Thank you for that thoughtful and insightful reply
@EnlightenedRogue24 Mountain peaks are measured from mean sea level. Everest from it's 'base' to summit is about 12,000 feet. From base to summit Mauna Kea is one of the Hawaiian islands. From it's base in the Pacific floor to it's summit is 33,500 feet.
The Earth is a spherical obloid, being 26 miles wider at the equator than around the poles. Mount Chimborazo, 1 Everest South of the equator in Ecuador, is 6,800 feet farther from the center of the Earth than Everest. Everest isn't the tallest mountain nor the highest point on Earth.
@@conradfrykman-vz4onwait, you changed from ellipsoid (eg WGS 84). Coordinates to spherical…not kosher. Also…the geoid (eg EGM96) matters…it defines MSL, which is bumpy.
For humans, pressure altitude is what matters, and the atmosphere is thicker at the equator vs the poles….by that metric, K2 is a little higher than Everest, thanks to being further north. But not by much.

Is there anything more selfish than a husband and father of young children dying on a vanity project he had no business being on? I’m sorry, anyone who climbs Everest is an asshole, especially if there are people counting on you being alive.
Mt. Everest, or any other peak, is not controversial. You want controversy?? Talk to the Nepalese Government AND the expedition operators. Granted, I have not reviewed rosters, but it is likely 75% of the thrill-seekers (they are NOT Mountaineers) should not have been allowed above base-camp.
