Actually, $70’000 seems cheap. The Sherpa’s aren’t paid NEARLY enough to carry those arrogant narcissists crap up that mountain.
-
When people tell me I need to be more motivated, I’ll quip that Mount Everest is covered in the bodies of highly motivated people.
-
Why are you showing pictures of Mt. Fuji in Japan?
-
The world's tallest graveyard
-
Let's not forget the millions of tons of garage left on the the world's tallest dump
-
You couldn't pay me enough to ever even think of climbing something that dangerous. lol
-
I remember how chilling it felt learning about the bodies for the first time.
-
You know what they say: if at first you don't succeed, your frozen corpse will become a horrifying landmark. It's not a very catchy saying, it it?
-
if i was green boots, i personally would be happy people constantly come by my body. For one, i would have folks constantly coming by to visit me. Second, and more important, being a waypoint, maybe my death could save another life by someone not getting lost, just by knowing where my body was, and that person was able to survive.
-
Some reason you showed Mt Fuji? Or is that just another Ranker mistake?
-
I try to be as compassionate as I can in this world, but any idiot who tries to climb to the top without oxygen is just inviting their place in the Darwin Awards.
-
I love how images of mountains that AREN'T Everest keep getting shown when talking about it, lol.
-
I hate going back downstairs for something I forgot. Climbing a mountain nope..no thanks!
-
When you’re willing to risk your life, you have to accept that you may lose it.
-
People who die on Everest usually due so in a self-guided way - I love those stories. The tragic ones of people trying to save these idiots from themselves are no fun.
-
I am not entirely sure why this youtube about Mt Everest starts with two successive pictures of not Everest, but a couple of random South American volcanos (I think they are in South America). There are only about a million pictures of Everest in the public domain, so there is absolutely NO reason to include randomly selected volcanos at the beginning of the video. Everest is most emphatically NOT a volcano! This sort of misrepresentation smacks of sheer laziness.
-
Honestly there’s enough bodies up there for several focused videos on individual stories
-
With all due respect to the quality of this video. Can we all agree this is the BEST narrator on YouTube?
-
Man, this is something else. Heartbreaking. Mount Everest is the mountain of death.

David Sharp was undoubtably trying to commit suicide. He knew he would die if he went alone without any oxygen and he REFUSED to bring an emergency radio, he knew his body proportions and genes did not predispose him to be one of those people who are able to climb with less or no oxygen, and he didn't try to get help from any passers-by.
