This was an excellent video!! She really detailed the changes that you can expect!! 👋👋👋👋

This old Karen pretending to be something better than other climbers. She's similar adrenaline junkie just more lucky than others.

Its commercialized & no longer unique. Its mainly about the money & if they stack another body well, you knew better. So many people up there at one time an in shape person is limited to the person or persons in front of them. 300 + bodies & counting.

I'm at the age were I would never do it my self, but love watching the videos and learning about the safety and the climb by many great experienced climbers

Everest is not a very difficult mountain to climb. You have group of locals who carry most of your weight. Denali is much more challenging mountain to climb. I bet she's never even tried to climb Denali.

There's something about getting to the edge. And it's seductive. Couldn't have said it better.

Sounds like fun. 🙄

And they drink alcohol before climbing… the blood cannot take oxygen in because alcohol displace his oxygen….

As an ER doctor… thank you to all of you patients who made us learn about acute mountain sickness, acute cerebral edema, and acute pulmonary edema. Not to mention the fractures, lacerations, hypothermia, frostbite, and cardiac death you subject yourselves to… all for an Instagram post for your 97 followers.

Inexperienced people should not be allowed to go mountain climbing

What is amazing is that in spite of all the risks of dying on Mount Everest there are still plenty of people who strongly desire and are motivated to climb Mount Everest. Then there are lots of people who would never do this and consider it to be crazy to climb Mount Everest or any other mountain peak that is over 8000 meters. Another interesting fact is that of the mountain peaks over 8000 meters Mount Everest is the least risky. The second highest mountain peak K2 is far more dangerous and risky.

Everest is the same latitude as Palm Beach, Florida.

I mean it starts with a landing at lukla airport AKA the world's most dangerous airport

Ha ha, the Summit is just half way mark.

And she never has a bad hair day!

This is something I'll never experience and I'm thankful I won't!! Interesting though!

For what it costs to go to the top, don't ever brag to me that you climbed to the top. You were a spoiled prrson with too many helpers.youe not carrying all your own gear, cooking your food.

Climb a really tall hill hostile to life and survive impresses me the same as somebody runs into traffic and doesn't get mortally hit by a car. Both unnecessary acts while the other just needs more disposable income to begin.
