- The booming tourism industry aimed at putting people on the peak of Mt. Everest has radically changed the lives of Nepal's Sherpas. National Geographic Young Explorer and photographer Max Lowe recently spent two months in Nepal's Khumbu region, documenting some of those changes.

Hi NG. I'm Sherpa myself. Thank you so much for uploading these videos! The footage is beautiful.
Salute
not that I am Sherpa but when I saw this video been uploaded i, it made me happy . Love and missing Nepal
Until now, I had always thought that Sherpa was a profession. I had no idea it was the name of a people.
The begining of the end of Sherpas culture... sad
Oh yeah how sad for them to earn good money, to enjoy life a bit better and to finally have hospitals and such. Yes everest tourism has many many many bad sides I agree. But it has some positive aspects. Why should Westerners be the only ones to enjoy modern civilisation?
Excellent video and kudos to Max
buenisimo ....es para compartir ....
boy I sure would like to go back and climb Everest again.
cool thanks for that info. maybe ur right, i just wasnt really convinced with the examples and they way they portrayed them in this video.
My journey to Base Camp was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Thanks for sharing.
Just got my mag today, gonna read this article later
proud to be a Nepali...cheers :)
Nice video 👍😊
good video
How i do national geographic young exsplorer?
Cell phone penetration & connectivity is not just Everest region but almost all remote corners of the world due to low installation cost compared to landlines.
u are not the only one
I like the National Geographic Channel.
Uhm, that Max guy is gorgeous :O
i miss everest
doesnt sound like its getting better to me, just because food is more diverse doesnt mean its healthier, and why do you need cell phones? i like the idea of the calmer life where you dont need these things and you can focus on the simpler things in life and 'true happiness' . now a lot of them are probably just focused on money.
I want to climb the Everest and Huascaran
What the heck does that Former High Altitude Sherpa mean? Is there any former/post and high/ low altitude sherpa? Sherpa is one of the particular ethnic groups of Nepal. Don't take "Sherpa" as a synonym to "Porter". You know nothing about sherpa. Don't take interview with those sherpas who know nothing about how do the outer society define the sherpa people. They feel proud only because many people know sherpa but do not know how do many people around the world know the sherpa people.
i love my np
Captions can be heard in Nepalese.
It's like you didn't even watch the video.
thats easy for people who have never had to live like that to say
Dear National Geographic Listen to this video in Nepalese.
that guy is on the highest mountains of the world and he is worried that there isn't enough snow.
Global warming biatch
Oh just go ahead and get it over with! Build the escalator from base camp to summit! Included in the package is authentic traditional Sherpa Snow Cones buy 1 get 1 half price.
Yes there is, however, THIS video just happens to be about the Sherpa.
I saw this video in a class and think that is very interesting
hope i can climb everest oneday！
Don't worry. It's still there.
I am not, but here right now ! I am the only one :D
Why are all their last names sherpa
It's their community name. In Asia mostly community names are kept as surnames unlike west where there are family names.
Why?
That moment when i am the only one who can speak TIBETAN language :D
are u saying the salt should not be called salt?

let the mystical invade you, for there lies a door to the "other side" , its not for nothing that in the bible its said, "ask and it will be given to you, seek and ye shall find" . but do you know how to ask ? do you know how to seek?
So western food and ways are better? 😆
