Honestly climbing Everest should be restricted to people who have done multiple other challenging summits first. Right now it's basically a tourist attraction where a bunch of rich people underpay local people to carry all their stuff, lead them, test all the crossings and paths first, cook their food, pitch their camp, etc. Exploited sherpas are die way too often essentially carrying tourists up the mountain like greek gods. You shouldn't get the privilege of climbing it or K2 until you've proven yourself as a solo mountaineer.

I’ve watched countless documentaries on Everest, both on YouTube and studio productions, and this is the FIRST expert I’ve heard talk about the nuts and bolts of the medical changes in the body caused by climbing Everest and the public health risks at base camps!! Absolutely fascinating. More of her please!

Everest should be a restricted climb. You should have to meet several stringent qualifications. It’s disgusting how filthy the mountain is simply because people can pay to gamble with their lives. I have absolutely no desire to do this. This woman is absolutely amazing though, what a badass and what an amazing life she has led!

When I was a kid, I went through a phase where I was really into Mount Everest, and I started reading tons of books about it. I read the “Everest” trilogy by Gordon Korman, in which a group of kids(!) attempt to make the summit. The main kid gets high-altitude pulmonary edema, and one of the kids sits down and never gets back up. It was very graphic and scary but also educational. Now I’m very content with never attempting that climb 😅 I’m much more of a hiker than a climber anyway.

This is definitely on my check list of things never to do.
