I'd like to know, how many of the 2000 aren't white?  minorities don't mess with shit like this.  

200 bodies, not 2000.

[Danimal77]

May as well jack off in your dying moments

That dude has thick legs for a skeleton (no homo)

His shirt tag sticking out made me laugh...lol

What if the rescue team die themselves? Are they going to send up more rescuers to bring down the bodies of the other rescue team? 

[Danimal77]

Fucking awesome, this only makes me want to climb it more. The death zone...imagine how manly and hardcore it must feel as you  make it to the top inching past all these dead betas that lacked the will power along the way, I mean your fucking testosterone would increase tenfold and once you get to the pinnacle and rip off your shirt and hit a most muscular with a primitive roar and come back down, you would have a beard to put the great civil war generals to shame and women would be lined up in tbe snow with their legs open waiting for you to fill them with your seed one by one

Wouldn't it be fucking awesome if you made it to the top, made a most muscular pose, lost your balance in the process and fell off the mountain before climbing back down?

[Danimal77]

Really?

That can't be right - are you sure it's not something like 4% die?

25% seems WAY too high?

4.3% of the climbers die. There are many article on this.

[Danimal77]

25 is way too high, I think they mixed that up with k2, which I believe is around that, along with another mountain in South America.

It's 4%

[Danimal77]

Is there a a link to the story, I want to read more about this.

Youtube is your friend.

Fucking merry christmas, what an awesome thread, and even more awesome jokes. Happy holidays you crazy fuckers

you can do the trek into evererst base camp. typically takes about 14-20 days if you do the circuit thru the goyka valley or 10 if you go right in and back.

this is my next big trek in 2015 as i am doing salkantay to macchu picchu with my brother in aug 2014.

nothing is more majestic or breath taking or humbling than the mountains. the immensity and power of them is unexplainable for me.

There was a big scandal a few years back because a TV channel from New Zealand actually recorded a man dying and left him to die, even though the man was begging for help.

These fuckers get home to NZ and actually show the "harshness" of Everest to everyone's amazement and disgust.

That's the reason why the Discovery Channel stopped running that "Climbing Everest" show, because it was a really fucked up place to be in.

you risk your own life when you stop to help someone on everest. chances are if they are bad enough to need help at any point they are too far gone to get back down with safely. why risk your life to save a life that cannot be saved. its the harsh reality of everest.

Cusco

Cusco 

yessir.

spent 3 days in cusco 2 years ago before i did the inca trail to MP. very cool little city. the area in general is very historically rich w incan influence. the inca were very skilled builders. the temples at sacred valley point to this. even existing structures in cusco are well in tact and lived in to this day having been built over 200 years ago. the spanish came and tried to duplicate the incan style of building and failed misreably. the inca were very skilled people and very hard workers. im looking forward to going back. its my brothers 60th bday and its his bucket list trip to do with his little bro.

and a little known fact the cusco football squad in its day was actually better than the peruvian squad they fielded for international competition. i love picking up knowledge and the history of places i have been. i could go on forever bro.

[arce1988]

 yeah   had fun there   I have been to 30 countries
