    One of the best short vids of the ice fall I've seen yet. Thanks. The Khumbu fascinates me, I don't know why. I'm too old now to go on that type of journey, but even if I was young I question whether I'd do it or not. Brave folks go up Everest for sure. Props to them.

    I propose the design and production of a mobile aluminum bridge to enhance the safety and security of the journey to the summit of Mount Everest. This bridge would feature a solid, gap-free floor, sturdy banisters, and a foldable, fully knock-down structure. Its width would be double that of a standard ladder, providing a more secure and stable crossing.

    I don't know why people feel the need to do this, they threaten their own lives, it should only be used for scientific, research purposes only. It absolutely blows my mind, the experience is exhilarating but, too risky in my opinion and I'd you do pass away up there, there's a chance that you will be left alone up there and you may never be retrieved. The thought of that is terrifying, especially if alive and you're just left . It would be every man for themselves unless you have the odd person who would stay with you . I believe I've heard this happen before and they've ended up dead too, to stay & help someone. It's very sad indeed. .

      You don't get it, but your ancestors who made it possible for you to live today did get it. I can tell you have never tried something that pushes you past your limits, growth is something us humans don't appreciate, but our future and past do, they would be thankful of you growing as a person, mount everest is for the brave, why did Alexander the Great conquer most of the world as we know it? what a stupid decision right? or was it just the burning fire of the soul that outliers possess to do something that has never (or rarely) been done before? It's in our deepest nature to take risks and then get rewards, when you're not putting yourself at any risk you're comfortable, you're letting yourself stagnate, not staying true to your nature, that's how you live like the others, if you want to see how the world truly looks, maybe you should try and see how it looks from the top. You don't know how it feels or what it'll look like in real life but all you require is hope and determination, and a big leap of faith.

      12 y/o here ; if you plan to trek Everest when you're older, you'll REALLY need to train. Not having the proper training could lead to your demise. Also follow whatever the Sherpas say. If they tell you that you should return to a Base Camp and forfeit the summit, do so. They are trained with the mountain and will know when you are pushed to your limits.

Everest and it's neighbours. You have the same beautiful view but it's not that dangerous and it's really CHEAP compared to the overpriced 1-2 month trip, ending as the next sightseeing or waypoint for the other climbers ;) You can also watch the mt. Everest trip yourself on the MS Flight Simulator :D It looks amazing in 4k.

But ladders are not required for life, and using these aids which were not set in place by your own climbing team dilutes the accomplishment and lends credibility to the idea that Everest has become an amusement park ride for rich people who aren't willing to tackle the more difficult and inconvenient aspects of the climb.
