i think i've heard K2 is considered a harder climb but i bet everest has the most kills just because it attracts the most people and therefore gets way more unprepared dumbasses
>i bet everest has the most kills just because it attracts the most people and therefore gets way more unprepared dumbasses
thats exactly why its so deadly
Do yt people really hate their lives that much? I get wanting to explore but this isn't some undiscovered continent or some land filled with native qts. It's a mountain that has been climbed before and it won't make you hate your wagie desk job less if you go there
Only reason Everest is dangerous is cause it's an overloaded assembly line hike for people who think it's something to brag about so there are way to many people doing it most of which have no business being their based on their talent. And since spots and time are so limited anyone who gets it trouble is just pushed to the side and ignored so everyone else can keep going. It's like running the Daytona 500, but instead of having experienced pro drivers you auction off the drivers seat to rich people with no experience then watch as there's a 20 car pile-up.
>dying because some instathot is taking too many selfies
At least it’s 99% rich cucks that go up there. Any time I read about someone dying on one of these mountains I remember they’re part of the 1% and I smile to myself and think “what a wonderful world” and go on with my day.
>It's like running the Daytona 500, but instead of having experienced pro drivers you auction off the drivers seat to rich people with no experience then watch as there's a 20 car pile-up
This has already been a phenomenon for years. Half of the field in any given NASCAR race are literally just zoomers with rich parents who pay to run the car. There are entire teams with business models that revolve around various drivers paying to drive the car each race.
Almost every team does this. Most drivers in NASCAR are there either because they are the relative of another driver, relative of a team owner, relative of someone in a company sponsoring the car, or they paid $100,000 to buy a seat for a race. NASCAR is the epitome of nepotism and backroom deals, so if you want to see or partake in racing in it's purest and most accessible form, you need to go to your local short track and watch the shitboxes race on a Saturday night.
>It's like running the Daytona 500, but instead of having experienced pro drivers
it's called Xfinity Series in Nascar and people go to see the 20 car pile up.
It's Annapurna I. For every 3 people that climb, 1 will die. Everest and K2 are more well known because they have a higher elevation. But the most dangerous is Annapurna I because of how steep the surface is, making it more difficult to climb that those other two mountains.
Its probably more like Mt Rainier or parts of the pacific crest trail that are just really accessible and dangerous and kill people every season. Maybe still less people die than do on Everest but I would call Everest most dangerous then because it claims the most lives
But Everest claims more lives for other reasons, not because of the technical difficulty. If you didn't have queues up in the Hillary Step larger than Walmart on Black Friday there wouldn't be as many deaths as there have been in recent years. Hell every climbing season before the recent massification of Everest, there were like 100 summits and 2 deaths. In 2023 we had like 300 summits and 17 kills.
Statistically Annapurna and K2 are far more dangerous. If you go with a team of 10 people, probably 3 or 4 people will probably die (if we go by the 1/4 and 1/3 stat for those) Whereas Everest is very likely that your group of 20 people will summit and some dumb fuck may die
My cousin got a himalayan cat named Annapurna. She was a good kitty but would scratch your ass if you pissed her off so was pretty dangerous. She spawned a large family of cats who were given himalayan sounding names.
still, kind of fun to say you did it and have a pic, kind of a general knowledge check for anyone youre trying to impress, and a good joke for those who know.

Yeah, they're cool places to visit. Thinking of doing Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania next year.
Kilimanjaro seems more impressive to me, rather that it being one of the pointy peaks poking up out of a already high mountain range, just one big fat lad poking up out in the middle of a flat plain, 2/3 their height but all under his own steam, not riding anybody elses shoulders
Volcanoes are truly the chad of the mountain world
When I visited africa some years ago I asked the locals that lived near a beautiful waterfall that you can hike to if they had ever been there. None of them had ever seen it because they couldn’t fathom why anyone would go hiking for fun. It was at this moment I understood why the white man had colonised the entire world while black people still make huts out of cow shit.
>People don't visit things nearby their permanent residence but people who are only traveling there are more likely to want to
This is normal. You think people who live in NY etc. do all the touristy shit there?
I have been to every sight worth seeing in my local area yes
Normal (white) people don't do that. We're too busy actually contributing to society and when we do get time off we're not spending it 5 miles from our fucking home.
I walk through the tourist places in my town every week because it's a really nice place to walk and there's not that many tourists, especially in autumn.
I live in the redwoods and walk in the redwoods daily because they are wonderful. Shoobie city slickers who think "touristy" means a fucking gift shop and parking lot will never understand natural beauty. You fucks take out a second mortgage to fly thousands of miles to sit at a bar in a hotel and watch tv.
I never went to the statue of liberty because I don't care, but the Intrepid is always worth it. Seeing your house from the Empire State building is pretty cool too. You should get out more often.
>None of them had ever seen it because they couldn’t fathom why anyone would go hiking for fun.
Probably because there's shit that will kill and eat you there, if you're not prepared.
You’re not going to randomly meet a lion in the woods in africa lmao. Now going swimming in a random river/lake is something I would NOT recommend but almost all the big predators that aren’t reptiles are basically extinct in that part of the world.
My friend got malaria and was really sick but luckily it was the kind of malaria you don’t have forever. I only had some pretty bad food poisoning to where I needed to take coal tablets to not shit myself constantly. We almost went swimming in some water that we didn’t know was full of these weird parasites that crawl under your skin but luckily the weather changed and we decided to do something else
Idk what it’s like now but it was nice 10 years ago. The hotel I stayed at during Christmas even hired a guy dressed as santa to go around on the beach and handing out candy and stuff it was fun. But I think the pandemic has fucked africa into oblivion so idk about going there now

Idk places like Morocco are better to visit now, the place got a lot better. Actually Morocco was either a fun place to visit in the 1980s or now, though I'd suggest you to ignore everyone and go in autumn
The only thing worth doing there are the safari tours and if you go for that you won't be experiencing the local culture any more than you would inside of a gated all-inclusive resort in Mexico. Dar-es-salaam is a shithole so just go straight to Arusha and look at the wildlife
westerners didnt really hike for fun until the 18th century, and it was only bored rich people for the longest time because they were the ones with leisure time and a lack of purpose in life with their pampered status that they needed to fill the void. it shouldnt be surprising that peoples who have to work more, and work outside more, don’t feel the need to hike. the need to hike is more about westerner cope for having physically unfulfilling lives because of too much comfort. even westerners who do live outdoor work lives like farmers and hunters dont really go outside apart from that. only the city dwelling rei consumers.
I had fun climbing the Fortification Hill, totally not because of Fallout. Obv completely different ballpark in terms of height and difficulty (and I'm not even sure if it's volcanic), but it felt great being virtually alone there.
It's all right, my folk knew where and when I was going to go, and when I was supposed to be back. Plus I'm a hamfag and had a handheld on me to keep checking in.
Thanks for the concern though, appreciate that.
i did it when i was 18. depending on the route you take it's pretty easy. just a week of hiking. you just have to watch out for altitude sickness. none of us were climbers.
Into Thin Air.
I think Everest has killed more but K2 you have a higher chance of death and fewer have tried so it depends on how you look at it which is more dangerous. Oh 14 peaks is good.
I watched this kino in the kinoplex and rented it when it came out on vhs as a kid, I was obsessed with it
refuse to watch it now as an adult in case it's shit
>on Everest expedition >"Hey guys I need to piss lmao I'll be back" >go to Green Boots' corpse >steal his boots and put them on in place of my green boots, nobody will know >push the body over the edge so nobody knows about the theft >after summitting sell Green Boots' boots on eBay to cover Everest expedition costs
What they do now is bring some uninflated zorbs, and when they get to the bodies the sherpas use a pump to fill them up, stuff the bodies inside, and roll down for retrieval
>how could this happen???? >we had a superior safety net of uh >two guys who hopefully catch the ball before it runs off a mountain >who would have expected a ball to continue rolling
Because it’s dangerous to fly a helicopter at that altitude because the air is so thin. Also near the top the air is so thin that the climbers are actually actively dying very slowly while they are climbing because their bodies don’t get enough oxygen. This means that you will most certainly die if you start using energy on trying to get a dead body down with you. It’s every man for themselves up there and the climbers know it
They get paid very well to do it
I bet they'd pick up some dead bodies for the right price but the families don't care enough about some corpse to pay up, that's all it comes down to
If anyone really cared why wouldn't they build a robot to do it? I'll tell you why because the ones retrieving bodies are glory fags just like the ones that died. Same shit as that diver that also does trying to retrieve a dead face divers body. Send a fucking remote sub.
They freeze solid and are heavy, meanwhile you have some small percentage of your sea level strength and also it is both disrespectful and dangerous to send a corpse down the mountain like a sled.
>summitting
If you start from base camp you havent climbed Everest.
If you get in a helicopter and rope down and then climb 3ft to the summit, have you climbed Everest?
Climbing a mountain should require the climber to be unassisted by external forces from sea level to the summit.
Why the fuck do I have to pay several tens of thousand american dollars just to walk to the top of a naturally occuring mountain? I society for real? Can I not just start go alone, on my own responsibility, for free?
I think you need a bunch of permits and stuff to climb these high af mountains because it’s a bad look for the third world countries if a bunch of retards die every year up there
If you can pay the climbing permits and fees to the Nepalese or the Chinks you can do it on your own. Pro mountaineers have done it, but most of the time even them carry a team to help coordinate the expedition from base camp, haul shit up the high camps and then on summit push you could go up alone
What is the mountain where standing at the bottom and looking up, you will have the largest distance? Denali?
Because as I understand, Everest's base by itself sits 5km up, so the actual relative distance you are climbing is like 3km
You might wanna phrase it as the biggest delta between base and summit.
Mauna Kea is the biggest in that case because it starts from below the sea.
If it’s climbable surface you’re asking which is the most topologically prominent, in that case it’s Everest again.
But you’re after the common starting point distance? Measuring Everest as shorter because of the height of the base camp or something?
There's a punch of peaks like that that have only been climbed once or twice. The mountains surrounding the Siachen glacier come to mind and Im pretty sure there's a few unclimbed peaks there too.
Everest is more dangerous than k2 because it’s easier to climb. Thus more inexperienced jackasses treat it like a Disney cruise, complete with lines to go to the top and tipping.
We need to crowdfund a movie about the first Black climber of K2 or Everest, call it Black Peak or Black Summit or something. The goal is to get a bunch of naggers into mountaineering (have white guilt roasties pay the expenses through some charity) and when they start dying blame racist sherpas which in turn will get more naggers into it so they can harass the sherpas. Trick them into throwing a BLM rally on K2
>PLEASE NOOOO IM AMERICAN NOOOO
Would have been funny if everyone just dropped their pants and proceeded to piss and shit all over her while singing the Star-Spangled Banner.
jokes aside, this would be pretty fucking traumatizing to witness, especially if it was someone you knew, like your friend or girlfriend. Just turning your back and walking away because you know there is no way to save them despite standing right there next to them as they plead with you for help.
No sarcasm here, go on YouTube and search for mountain climbing disaster, and there are more than a couple channels who do a lot of good videos about a lot of these dangerous peaks. Mountain climbing disasters and cave exploring disasters are my jam. Morbid midnight is a good one
Das Eiger or Cerro Torre, check those out. There are some pretty wicked ones out there that are not standard pyramid peaks the way you would call K2 or everest. Tori is one of those, and iger has a big ass flat face that is almost one vertical wall entirely.
Obviously there's going to be a lot of videos and attention about places like Katie where everest, but once you start looking around there is more than enough mountain climbing disaster Kino to work through
>iger has a big ass flat face that is almost one vertical wall entirely
saw it in the flesh just last week. Couldn't even fit it in frame. Incredible place, never felt so small in my life.
Morbid Midnight is kino, I can recommend also Terror Twin. Mountaineering disasters are my jam, and I do go on hikes up in the mountains. Recently summited a local 4420 meter peak and will try a 4900 at the end of the month as training for my first 5000 in october
>Mountain is hard to climb because of snow and ice >Bring a flamethrower with me and literally trailblaze a new path
No need to thank me, just give me 5 grand and the cost of fuel.
And Indians move to your country, get an HR position at a tech company, and then exclusively hire their people while firing yours for any and every reason
Anyone know why they don't just add things like studs or something or some kind of harness around their bags that automatically stops you when you fall?
>but it seems like an easy safety feature?
Safety from what? People only fall in crevasses or extremely dangerous features in which they're unrecoverable if they can't save themselves anyway, or when they're completely exhausted/injured and again unable to save themselves. In either case trying to help them near summit altitude, even with a team of highly skilled sherpa, is just inviting more death. Something like that already exists for the final segment that leads to the summit and it's what causes large traffic jams and arguably is responsible for more deaths now than it's ever saved.
Studs are not going to stop a fall once it's steep enough, and if it's not that steep you could stop yourself or come to a stop naturally anyway. Studs would add weight and potential awkwardness for little benefit.
if nepal wasn't a corrupt 3rd world country they could've built a train up everest already
but when they can charge $10K per person + sherpa tip to walk up the mountain why bother

but when they can charge $10K per person + sherpa tip to walk up the mountain why bother
This mountain is less than 1/3rd of Everest's height you absolute idiot
who gives a shit you're not going from sea level to the top
it would totally be possible to build a series of ski lifts to go from base camp to the top if someone was mad and rich enough to do it
not a film but a book by Swede Goran Kropp who cycled with all his gear to Nepal, summited unassisted and w/out supplemental O2, and also helped rescue a bunch of climbers in that disastrous year (think it was '96).
He also declined to make a film about his achievement out of respect to the climbers who died that year
Everest aint even in the Top 10 of deadliest mountains. Atleast if we are talking about the standard route through the Kumbu Icefall.
The problem with Everest is every motherfucker with money thinks they can go there and summit. And so you have shit like an old chink lady with a peacemaker taking 5 hours to even get to the Glacier above base camp
Anyway, I digress. Watch Nanga Parbat. It's a movie about Reinhold Messner's accident in the Nanga where he lost his brother
Get the nicest pair of flip flops you can find (don't bother with socks), put on a t-shirt and some shorts, find the highest mountain in your area and then just start walking toward its peak. I recommend starting at around midnight, that's when the air is the freshest. Oh and don't tell anyone! Instead, surprise them with a photo of you at the summit.
Now that we live in an era that we know nothing is up there and we know what is on the other side we can safely say that modern mountain climbers are retards and deserve death
There has to be a more dangerous mountain than that
>377 successful summits
>91 deaths
unconquered
Why is the eastern side a big deal? Melting and freezing from sunlight making it worse?
North hasnt been properly climbed either, but yeah insability of snow and ice.
dunno. Looks more vertical than the others
If you try it from the eastern side it's too far from the western side and so you hit the vertical limit
Verticality is the problem ther
He could have done it.
>had everything
>threw it away
I hate adrenalinefags so much
this nigga died to soon. Motherfucker would've become the greatest climber in history if he was still alive
yeah screw that
Where do you climb that shit from?
You start at the bottom and you make your way to the top with the help of helicopters, trails, and locals.
"Say my name"
"Mount Everest"
"NOOOOO YOU IGNORANT HUMAN!"

that doesnt even look that tough. i bet i could jog up that in an hour
doesn't look too difficult. and if my boots get worn out I could borrow the dead guy's.
That active volcano in Tenerife
Yeah its neighbor K2 is said to be significantly more dangerous
>neighbor
They are 1700 miles apart lol
Average distance between houses in america. I guess the closest neighbour you have is the wendigo out in the woods
Everest is in the Himalayan range and K2 is in the Karakoram.
i think i've heard K2 is considered a harder climb but i bet everest has the most kills just because it attracts the most people and therefore gets way more unprepared dumbasses
>i bet everest has the most kills just because it attracts the most people and therefore gets way more unprepared dumbasses
thats exactly why its so deadly
K2, Annapurna and Nanga Parbat are far more lethal.
isn't Annapurna the highest death rate? I thought it was 1/3 die to summit.
Do yt people really hate their lives that much? I get wanting to explore but this isn't some undiscovered continent or some land filled with native qts. It's a mountain that has been climbed before and it won't make you hate your wagie desk job less if you go there
S-Soon. Maybe
Why the fuck are they trekking to it on segways?
?si=mD6KvWekdrMDg6Vz&t=134
The Climber is absolute kino but it'll never get an adaptation and it's about a guy who wants to go up K2's East Face not Everest.
I almost died climbing up your mom
Only reason Everest is dangerous is cause it's an overloaded assembly line hike for people who think it's something to brag about so there are way to many people doing it most of which have no business being their based on their talent. And since spots and time are so limited anyone who gets it trouble is just pushed to the side and ignored so everyone else can keep going. It's like running the Daytona 500, but instead of having experienced pro drivers you auction off the drivers seat to rich people with no experience then watch as there's a 20 car pile-up.

Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got here.
How the fuck are the other teams okay with this?
Almost every team does this. Most drivers in NASCAR are there either because they are the relative of another driver, relative of a team owner, relative of someone in a company sponsoring the car, or they paid $100,000 to buy a seat for a race.

Not anymore. K2 is still slightly more dangerous. Like 1 in 4. AP 1 in 5. Everest is like 1 in 20 but skewed from avalanche death of Sherpas.

The highest mountain in Denmark
I've been there. They put up this big tower on what they thought was the summit and then they discovered a higher point behind a barn nearby.
Do Kansas next!
I did Belgium the next day. It's another meme summit where you can park right next to it.
still, kind of fun to say you did it and have a pic, kind of a general knowledge check for anyone youre trying to impress, and a good joke for those who know.
Yeah, they're cool places to visit. Thinking of doing Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania next year.
Mount Doom
K2 is the far more dangerous mountain. And the first attempted summit was done by Aleister Crowley and his team, interestingly enough
Kilimanjaro seems more impressive to me, rather that it being one of the pointy peaks poking up out of a already high mountain range, just one big fat lad poking up out in the middle of a flat plain, 2/3 their height but all under his own steam, not riding anybody elses shoulders

Damn so many seething brownoids lmoa
To be fair, I live 15 minutes from the beach and I probably go there once a year, so not far fetched tbh
That has absolutely NOTHING to do with what anon said. Zero
what is with the replies to your post? has reddit truly invaded ?
it also has much cooler name
climbed it in 2010, very cool
I had fun climbing the Fortification Hill, totally not because of Fallout. Obv completely different ballpark in terms of height and difficulty (and I'm not even sure if it's volcanic), but it felt great being virtually alone there.
don't do these hikes alone anon, that's how you die
Shhh don’t tell him
t. national park cannibal
It's all right, my folk knew where and when I was going to go, and when I was supposed to be back. Plus I'm a hamfag and had a handheld on me to keep checking in.
Thanks for the concern though, appreciate that.
How's the climb? I've never climbed a mountain ever and have zero knowledge. Impossible for a first?
Suburbanites get the rope
i did it when i was 18. depending on the route you take it's pretty easy. just a week of hiking. you just have to watch out for altitude sickness. none of us were climbers.
why not ride dirt bike up
The Rap Mountain
Into Thin Air.
I think Everest has killed more but K2 you have a higher chance of death and fewer have tried so it depends on how you look at it which is more dangerous. Oh 14 peaks is good.
Krakauer is a homosexual and based Boukreev’s The Climb is a much better account of the 96 disaster
I agree but the movie is still entertaining.
Oh 100%. I just get triggered by JK and sperg out
I dont remember if its everest but "vertical limit" is pretty good!
I looked it up this ones actually K2, but still.
There's also that one about the German's who did a first ascent on that one mountain for the nazis.
here is how you climb K2 according to Vertical Limit
you shut your whore mouth, i watched this movie multiple times on cable tv as a child, it is vetted kino.
I watched this kino in the kinoplex and rented it when it came out on vhs as a kid, I was obsessed with it
refuse to watch it now as an adult in case it's shit

Why are the bodies unretrievable anyway? Just throw them off a cliff to a safer altitude
>dude risk your life to pick up some rich cunts trash lmao
What they do now is bring some uninflated zorbs, and when they get to the bodies the sherpas use a pump to fill them up, stuff the bodies inside, and roll down for retrieval
The people in the ball died right?
if its the one where they go off the cliff yes.
One of them survived
probably by eating the other one

Because it’s dangerous to fly a helicopter at that altitude because the air is so thin. Also near the top the air is so thin that the climbers are actually actively dying very slowly while they are climbing because their bodies don’t get enough oxygen. This means that you will most certainly die if you start using energy on trying to get a dead body down with you. It’s every man for themselves up there and the climbers know it
>risk your life
Sherpas bring a lot of shit to Camps 1, 2 3 and 4 every year. Carrying a body back to base camp shouldn't be a big deal.
They get paid very well to do it
I bet they'd pick up some dead bodies for the right price but the families don't care enough about some corpse to pay up, that's all it comes down to
they get paid jack shit most of the time.
look up the average wage of nepal and the the average wage of everest sherpas
they get paid rockstar money
They do risk their life carrying gopros and toilet paper for rich assholes so makes sense if you ask me
Nepalese rockstars don't make a whole lot of money.
you'd probably lose some pieces doing that
If anyone really cared why wouldn't they build a robot to do it? I'll tell you why because the ones retrieving bodies are glory fags just like the ones that died. Same shit as that diver that also does trying to retrieve a dead face divers body. Send a fucking remote sub.
They freeze solid and are heavy, meanwhile you have some small percentage of your sea level strength and also it is both disrespectful and dangerous to send a corpse down the mountain like a sled.
my dad was sick for a week, and he only climbed a mountain that was 5500metres.
oxygen starvation is crazy
Because to retrieve them they would have to close the mountain off to paying hikers temporarily & that would cost em money.
I thought we were all made equally?
Why don't Nepalians get jobs at Ford to pay the bills?
>summitting
If you start from base camp you havent climbed Everest.
If you get in a helicopter and rope down and then climb 3ft to the summit, have you climbed Everest?
Climbing a mountain should require the climber to be unassisted by external forces from sea level to the summit.
YES, thank you king. climbers confirmed for frauds who use sticky powder that makes it impossible to fall
If you shitpost on Cinemaphile you haven’t climbed everest either so who cares
For some reason at first glance I thought thumbnail was Tora Bora. That's a more dangerous mountain
Not really. A mountain. More of a hill. You can walk up it.
If it was a hill there would be hobbits in it
Why the fuck do I have to pay several tens of thousand american dollars just to walk to the top of a naturally occuring mountain? I society for real? Can I not just start go alone, on my own responsibility, for free?
I assume you can do that if you're a nepalese citizen
Their property, their rules.
>pic
Unholy.
If you're a gigachad (and an extremely capable climber) you can go and summit mountains alone but you need a loicense to climb Everest now.
>but you need a loicense to climb Everest now.
You've needed a licence to climb Everest for at least 40 years
I think you need a bunch of permits and stuff to climb these high af mountains because it’s a bad look for the third world countries if a bunch of retards die every year up there
If you can pay the climbing permits and fees to the Nepalese or the Chinks you can do it on your own. Pro mountaineers have done it, but most of the time even them carry a team to help coordinate the expedition from base camp, haul shit up the high camps and then on summit push you could go up alone
looks like a root beer float
a what height of mount everest have people fucked?
do u think so lad boned his lady at camp4? or is it too dangerous?
Thhat one meme disaster year on everest happened because some rich lady fucked one of the chad guides and angered the mountain.
I love this documentary - death zone

What is the mountain where standing at the bottom and looking up, you will have the largest distance? Denali?
Because as I understand, Everest's base by itself sits 5km up, so the actual relative distance you are climbing is like 3km
IT DEPENDS HOW YOU DEFINE BOTTOM
Here's how I define a bottom
*unzips dick*
>denali
you mutts are so fucking pathetic lmfao
I am a Euro.
Kilimanjaro.
You might wanna phrase it as the biggest delta between base and summit.
Mauna Kea is the biggest in that case because it starts from below the sea.
If it’s climbable surface you’re asking which is the most topologically prominent, in that case it’s Everest again.
But you’re after the common starting point distance? Measuring Everest as shorter because of the height of the base camp or something?
Mt. St. Elias
mt. deez nuts
i bet i could get up there without a license
>most dangerous
Is that true, highest maybe but most dangerous?
There are harder, more dangerous climbs, but less retards on them at a given moment, therefore lower total body counts
>still unclimbed
There's a punch of peaks like that that have only been climbed once or twice. The mountains surrounding the Siachen glacier come to mind and Im pretty sure there's a few unclimbed peaks there too.
Also, the highest mountain of Bhutan is unclimbed because of some religious bullshit. It's literally illegal to climb it.
idk it's kinda neat to know that there's still places left where no man has ever stood
no woman has ever sat on my dick they lack the pioneering spirit
i think your dick lacks the necessary topographical prominence to make an ascent worth their while
Everest is more dangerous than k2 because it’s easier to climb. Thus more inexperienced jackasses treat it like a Disney cruise, complete with lines to go to the top and tipping.
k2 is harder and more people that try to climb it die
This fucking scene man..
Why didn't these thirdie heathens save her? One American life is worth a hundred of those savages. America bombed those barbaric shitholes for less.
We need to crowdfund a movie about the first Black climber of K2 or Everest, call it Black Peak or Black Summit or something. The goal is to get a bunch of naggers into mountaineering (have white guilt roasties pay the expenses through some charity) and when they start dying blame racist sherpas which in turn will get more naggers into it so they can harass the sherpas. Trick them into throwing a BLM rally on K2
Problem is convincing naggers there's more to life than crack and hennessey
>I am an Ameri—ACK!
>PLEASE NOOOO IM AMERICAN NOOOO
Would have been funny if everyone just dropped their pants and proceeded to piss and shit all over her while singing the Star-Spangled Banner.
>Star-Spangled Banner.
>He knows the name of the US national anthem
>his country is altogether irrelevant
Many such cases
>last thoughts were about being an American
And they call Yuros obsessed.
jokes aside, this would be pretty fucking traumatizing to witness, especially if it was someone you knew, like your friend or girlfriend. Just turning your back and walking away because you know there is no way to save them despite standing right there next to them as they plead with you for help.
Nah, yankees begging for their lives is funny in every context.
Yep. Imagine your last words being "Don't leave me, I'm an American". That's entitlement if I've ever seen it
Is there a comparably high mountain that you mostly have to climb up rather than hike?
pretty much all classic mountaineering standard routes are "hikes" and technical sections usually have ladders installed
they should call it ladderneering instead
Not only are there those mountains but there are kinos about people trying to climb them
No sarcasm here, go on YouTube and search for mountain climbing disaster, and there are more than a couple channels who do a lot of good videos about a lot of these dangerous peaks. Mountain climbing disasters and cave exploring disasters are my jam. Morbid midnight is a good one
What is the McDonnell Douglas DC-10 of mountaineering disaster kino?
Das Eiger or Cerro Torre, check those out. There are some pretty wicked ones out there that are not standard pyramid peaks the way you would call K2 or everest. Tori is one of those, and iger has a big ass flat face that is almost one vertical wall entirely.
Obviously there's going to be a lot of videos and attention about places like Katie where everest, but once you start looking around there is more than enough mountain climbing disaster Kino to work through
>iger has a big ass flat face that is almost one vertical wall entirely
saw it in the flesh just last week. Couldn't even fit it in frame. Incredible place, never felt so small in my life.
>jungfrau .ch
Absolute state of swizzcucks.
wtf where are the apartment complexes and dollar generals?
Morbid Midnight is kino, I can recommend also Terror Twin. Mountaineering disasters are my jam, and I do go on hikes up in the mountains. Recently summited a local 4420 meter peak and will try a 4900 at the end of the month as training for my first 5000 in october
I have no idea, but the best movie ever made about mountaineering is Snow Trail.
>Mountain is hard to climb because of snow and ice
>Bring a flamethrower with me and literally trailblaze a new path
No need to thank me, just give me 5 grand and the cost of fuel.
UH-OH STINKY
d-do the girls have their own poop pile
no you have to dig through gross shit to find the good stuff
>turds don't decompose on Everest
>75 percent of the ground is now snow-covered shit
Do Sherpas still hold you at knife point if you dont hire time to carry your shit?
i believe it's now mandatory to hire sherpas even for independent climbers
And Indians move to your country, get an HR position at a tech company, and then exclusively hire their people while firing yours for any and every reason
%3D
nope nope nope
Yeah, while I admire and respect the act...nope. You will never catch me up there or upside down in a cave.
more upside down cave pussy for the rest of us
Mmmmmhm bet it tastes nutty and feels like putty, bruh
When the mowden is too dangerous
>Long ascent with no steep climbs
If he'd worn proper shoes he would have made it.
it's a fucking tourist attraction these days, sherpas handhold even the biggest retazrds
Daammnnn maybe you can go too huh? Wittle baby wetawd?
Photos don't do mountains justice. They are massive in IRL
Meru is an absolutely kino docu, highly recommended.
I feel i could climb up it easily but wouldn't be able to get down it.
lol wat? its called gravity homie
Are you supposed to just parachute down? I thought you have to climb down.
i dont know just stop fighting gravity and im pretty sure it will figure it out for you
No worries
Anyone know why they don't just add things like studs or something or some kind of harness around their bags that automatically stops you when you fall?
everyones ropes would all get tangled up
how?
why?
but it seems like an easy safety feature?
Retard
>but it seems like an easy safety feature?
Safety from what? People only fall in crevasses or extremely dangerous features in which they're unrecoverable if they can't save themselves anyway, or when they're completely exhausted/injured and again unable to save themselves. In either case trying to help them near summit altitude, even with a team of highly skilled sherpa, is just inviting more death. Something like that already exists for the final segment that leads to the summit and it's what causes large traffic jams and arguably is responsible for more deaths now than it's ever saved.
Got to be able to cut the bodies loose easily
They don't generally die from falling on Everest
it's mostly exhaustion and lack of oxygen slowing them down until they freeze to death
Studs are not going to stop a fall once it's steep enough, and if it's not that steep you could stop yourself or come to a stop naturally anyway. Studs would add weight and potential awkwardness for little benefit.
how is a mountain dangerous just don't climb it idiot
>he risks his life to climb a mountain
just go to switzerland and take a train all the way up lmao
Like I want James Bond to blow me up.
if nepal wasn't a corrupt 3rd world country they could've built a train up everest already
but when they can charge $10K per person + sherpa tip to walk up the mountain why bother
This mountain is less than 1/3rd of Everest's height you absolute idiot
same view
who gives a shit you're not going from sea level to the top
it would totally be possible to build a series of ski lifts to go from base camp to the top if someone was mad and rich enough to do it
not a film but a book by Swede Goran Kropp who cycled with all his gear to Nepal, summited unassisted and w/out supplemental O2, and also helped rescue a bunch of climbers in that disastrous year (think it was '96).
He also declined to make a film about his achievement out of respect to the climbers who died that year
Because of climate change everest is about to be prime real estate. Someone should build a huge resort on it

did you see any bodies up there
wouldnt you like to know fed
maybe get your ass out of your seat and go up a mountain and check
Everest aint even in the Top 10 of deadliest mountains. Atleast if we are talking about the standard route through the Kumbu Icefall.
The problem with Everest is every motherfucker with money thinks they can go there and summit. And so you have shit like an old chink lady with a peacemaker taking 5 hours to even get to the Glacier above base camp
Anyway, I digress. Watch Nanga Parbat. It's a movie about Reinhold Messner's accident in the Nanga where he lost his brother

>The virgin Everest tourist

climbing mountains is one of the most stupid activities imo
You’re just a non-White mongrel so of course you don’t understand.
Funny, because non whites are the best climbers
what's K1?
How do I even start hiking and climbing?
Get the nicest pair of flip flops you can find (don't bother with socks), put on a t-shirt and some shorts, find the highest mountain in your area and then just start walking toward its peak. I recommend starting at around midnight, that's when the air is the freshest. Oh and don't tell anyone! Instead, surprise them with a photo of you at the summit.
you see that mountain over there?
you can climb it
Now that we live in an era that we know nothing is up there and we know what is on the other side we can safely say that modern mountain climbers are retards and deserve death
