    Now imagine climbing without fixed ropes in place. With primitive climbing gear. Being one of the first up, so you don’t know what comes next, what’s safe and what isn’t. Huge props to the folks who climb today. But I have such awe for the early pioneers.

    You don't just go up and up and up. The routes are scoped out using binoculars and then they set up a camp and take a small day pack to investigate the route to see if its doable. If it is then they climb and attach climbing ropes for later. This also helps them acclimatize. So yeah the route might be new but its not climbing into nothing, they work on a plan. Not only that but sometimes they try a route and end up having to turn back and try another one because of what they ran into. So don't think they started from base camp and went all the way to the summit in 16 hours and returned all in one day. Some of the early climbers on Everest spent years on the mountain searching for a route before they summited successfully.

    many have stated that the forced "slowness of the pace", due to traffic jams, is extremely taxing. try it at home: walk from one side of your living room, to the other, taking 6 inch steps. As soon as your body is forced out of "autopilot" mode, it becomes very exhausting. then take away half of the oxygen content of the air you are breathing....

    Another epic moment that brings the viewer to the crazy heights and spectacular view, for free. For many unfortunate souls, their last. And for people wondering if that is a body at 0:36, yes it is. Man named Donald Cash died after reaching the top, made it few steps down before collapsing to either attitude sickness or heart failure (been debate about that) He was temporarily revived but due to a delay of foot traffic jam, he end succumbing and left there. This happened in 2019. He is still attached to the rope but it’s covered by snow although after four years, his body is pretty well set solid in the ice now.

There are so many people on that track, with a map on your phone it isn't that hard to follow. Also if you rent your equipment ( can also a Good cheaper alternative) or already bought yours, have snacks, toilet paper and wet wipes with you (can get very expensive up there, also the wet wipes for your hygiene if the showers are not available or just to dirty). Chlorine tablets for water treatment are also very good. The water doesn't tastes good but you can refill it everywhere and water in bottles also can get very expensive. And you can get many useful gadgets for that trip in Katmandu for example. From there you have to fly or drive by bus to the town Lukla, from where you can start the trip. (Round trip costs can be 250-300$) Be aware of both the flight and the drive by bus can get quiet uncomfortable 😅. I saw an Austrian couple on their KZread channel that told they did the trip for around 500$ each!! Can't confirm this of course. But they also did everything prepared to safe money and maybe they had big luck with the prices. I hope I could give you some of yours questions answered👍🏼

It's obscene what we are doing to this mountain range by ridiculous tourism; many tourists with lots of money and no climbing skills and having absolutely no reason to be climbing this mountain. But it's a business that also has been institutionalized into the local economy. Sherpas make better money than they used to, but it is still brutal, risky, life-threatening work. One day we will see a disaster far worse than the one in 1996. Maybe that will finally stop this madness.

    They use 2 carabeners at a time, one is always hooked before they unhook the second one. One in front, one in back. But yes, still scary as you can see how narrow the edge is and how far down below that ledge is. I couldn't do it even tho I follow the climbers via social media every year for a dozen years now.

    So no one's gonna talk about the dead body lying under the piled snow? Spotted between 0:24 - 0:34 and again from 0:41 -0:44 You can only see the bottom part of their feet. Grey white shoes with black sole. Looks like a woman's shoes (I could be wrong). She must have been slipped and fallen down this snow walk and frozen to death, landing on the rock less than 10 feet below the snow ledge. Her harness must have stopped her from falling all the way down. Later on, her rope must have been unclipped from the main rope by the ones who spotted her and confirmed her death. It's heartbreaking that she couldn't climb back up the snow ledge and continue on. She must have been extremely tired. Now, her body would stay frozen on this mountain forever.

    This is the ridge where someone can get the "Grand Tour" if not careful. If you fall off the left side you will fall thousands of feet into Tibet & if you fall off to the right you will fall into Nepal. People getting the "Grand Tour' will be guaranteed 2 things. Falling over 20,000 feet & seeing the whole Mountain up close & 2) Death. If you fall off you better off going left into Tibet as you get a longer ride down. People actually joke about it. Some expeditions forbid all the climbers to be NOT CLIPPED IN TO THEIR SAFETY ROPE AS ONE CLIMBER FALLING COULD DRAG OTHER CLIMBERS DOWN WITH THEM. I have only seen 2 climbers get the Grand Tour & fall off the final ridge between the 2 summits & the velocity they gain so quickly is incredible & horrifying then they start bouncing off rocks & their lifelss bodies plummeting down the mountain still gives me haunted memories/nightmares from time to time. You can still hear their initial cries for help but all you can do is watch in horror.
