Here's how much it could cost to climb Mount Everest
Ойын-сауық
The business of climbing Mount Everest generates more than $300 million a year, but experts say it could be in jeopardy. Garrett Madison, Madison Mountaineering and mountain guide/climber, and CNBC's Robert Frank join 'The Exchange' to discuss the dilemma.

Pretty much everyone goes there for the pictures. You'd rarely find someone who's actually there to enjoy the experience through his own eyes and not his camera
Desk jockeys judging elite athlets is just ridiculous. And regarding the why question "if you're asking why climb question you wont understand the answer" "those who climb know the answer and those who dont will never understand"
Wtf for 700000 USD. I am Nepalese and the government sucks here
climbing everest is itself so expensive . climbing other peaks before this would cost a lost . its something only rich peoples can do .
11k$ is the government tax and other money is not just the cost to climb everest it is the cost for your training they will train you more than a month, your food cost, your hostel\hotel cost all are added there and just to live in mountain is very costly in nepal as compare to kathmandu because of the transportation cost and geographical condition so you will see the price difference in online and offline because online only shows the product price of kathmandu.
$70,000?! I was trying to go. Guess not lol

Is food for 4 to 6 weeks included for the base price?
Hmm, he said no one’s died on the way DOWN, he said nothing about the way up, 😑
3:30 sir Edmund Hillary did not say that george Mallory said that
People should just get permit and go like if you had training and if you have the right equipment and experience
the arbiter of who climbs Everest is Mother Nature and Nepal-Peroid.
IIl just ask my classmate sherpa, to take me there for free 😂😂

Madison said it all good. When asked why climbing up with 80 grands of price taking life into risks he should have said you reporter are not lgeit for this interview. Namaste
Crazy
George Mallory said "because it's there" in response to why he's gonna climb Everest, not Edmund Hillary.
I guess it was just a matter of time -- Pieter Swart died climbing Everest this year with Madison Mountaineering...
The interview is Not about the questioners, but the interviewee! These "professionals" need to learn how to ask a short, cogent question & stop talking!! Informative, but time wasted by newsies.
When I have grown old with my wife if she dies before me I am going to climb Everest as an old man and if I die I die. If companies won’t help me I’ll do it myself :)
3:11 An American experienced climber died there recently. I don’t see it, but other videos show his body that’s still there
