Why dont you wannabes climb everest like real men? Your nothing

>>653120

Cause I have zero interest in that stuff.

>>653123
coward

I don't go after bullet-point accomplishments. No matter how beautiful, deadly, challenging, and alluring Everest is, the Everest industry is revolting. I'd be happy to hike and see the Himalayas in general, but I'd stay away from all the Everest wankership. That's just me though. I'm one to get excited when I see a pretty stump in the woods but not care about the world's biggest/best/tallest whatever. Eh.

Plus now that green boots is gone there's nowhere to pee on the way up

>>653126
but think if you die on everest you become famous

Everest is not a technically diffucult climb. It's an easy peak.

>>653146
well yeah, geologically it mightn't be the worst thing on earth but due to elevation and weather it's harder'n horsecocks. you have to be prepared for anything and conditions have to be lucky for you to get up and down without trouble or undue risk. it's also the tallest peak which is important to the health of lesser minds.

>>653120
So many people have climbed Everest it means nothing now.

>>653175
yeap, it's pretty much like OPs mama at this point

> now that green boots is gone

In a way, this is somehow more morbid and depressing than the guy dying and becoming a lonely mummified landmark in the first place

Like, how you just gonna steal Green Boots. What do you even do with him

>>653191
shirly he wasn't stolen. he's either been swept away by an avalanch or someone finally buried him. they were pretty certain he was either indian or chinese, so he's not useful for religious/cannibalistic/sexual purposes.

>>653146
tell that to the hundreds who've died there
i'm sure the opinion of some hill climbing keyboard warrior will warm their frozen fucking existence

>>653128
except the guy in OPs pic remains unidentified.

>>653126
>bullet-point accomplishments
this is exactly what it is

>>653120
So many people have actually parished during their quest for the tip that the hikers actually use bodies like that as landmarks

Kinda disturbing yet beautiful in its own way

>>653394
fag

>>653191
Someone used his body as a sled on the back down.

fucking retarded, why do something that dangerous and expensive?

>>653342
"Possibly the most famous body on Everest is that of “Green Boots” (real name: Tsewang Paljor)"

DYEG, buh?

>>653126
wut, did people pee on him? why cant they pe now hes gone?

>>653466

someone answer me REEE

>>653485
m8 it's /out/ a slow board, also it's not yank time and most people here are yanks

>>653487
why is it not like /b/, /v/ and /pol/ the big boards?

>>653487
fair point actually, sorry

>>653488
Why do you think?

>>653490
reported

>>653120
what an idiot lol. someone wake that guy up

Heh. All they had to do was run a lot of extension cords up the mountain and they could've enjoyed hot coffee at the summit instead of dying.

Stupid mountain climbers.

>>653120
Everest is a meme peak

Fuck off OP

>>653128
I can't name a single person who died on Everest. And id rather be alive than famous for being a failure.

>>653120
Because I can feel confident in my abilities to do other things without them threatening my life. Like spelling and grammer, for example.

>>653120

I have, it was more a question of money than difficulty or bravery.

My nothing... What?

>>653338
Wasn't it just climbed by some decrepit jap in his 80s or 90s just a year or two ago?

>>655319
this is just one of many reasons to avoid ev'rest, but it's a damn good one and it represents the overall problem - people have ruined it to the point of having no appeal whatsoever. ike who's gonna stand at the altar and marry one of those Two Girls One Cup chicks?

>>655601

Totally would.


Just saying.

CLIMB IN THE LOO

how expensive is it really? how do people fund their climbs?

>>655938

They probably put it on credit and use the money from their "motivational speeches" to pay it off.

Why this shit is so expensive and how can i climb everest or other 8k peak without paying money for it? Will they chase me after that? Will they arrest me or something? How many people climb everest illegaly?

How easy is Mont Blanc? How many years of mountaineering experience required?

>>657659
I went to Mont Blanc last year. I didn't even get an attempt at Mont Blanc itself because of bad weather. My only previous experience is Kilimanjaro - no real experience is required for Mont Blanc. It may be nice to know how it feels to be at high altitudes, then again Mont Blanc is less than 5km. You should pick a trip which includes some preliminary days for getting a bit of experience with glacier walking and rock climbing - these additional days also help with acclimatization.

I intend to make another attempt this summer.

Didn't that Google CEO die on Everest?

>>653146
>Everest is not a technically diffucult climb.
yes
>It's an easy peak.
definitely not

>>657659
practically none if you go on a trip that involves a couple days of training beforehand

>>653120
oooh look at those bedding planes

>>653465
its unconfirmed
it could be the other indian guy and literally nobody knows

dont try to flex when youre a retard

I'm not going to deny its level of difficulty, but when you can pay 80 grand to be chaperoned the entire way up Mt.Everest it takes away the authenticity of it.

>>653120

man that looks comfy as hell
