I used to be an adventurer like you, until I took a world’s tallest mountain to the knee.
World’s highest peak or tallest mountain above sea level, but not the tallest mountain.
DONT CALM DOWN, THAT WHY THEY DIED.
Nah, they calmed down too late.
Good ol’ green boots - even in death you can serve as a trail marker 👍
In 2014, Green Boots was moved to a less conspicuous location by members of a Chinese expedition.
sad trombone noises
I wonder if he has freezer burn yet.
Number is approx 330 people if you believe wikipedia

I thought it was all the Sherpas that died trying to get some rich fuck up there.
So it sounds like less Sherpas have died than climbers, and I’m guessing you have more than one sherpa per climber.
Those numbers seem really low for a hundred year of shenanigans. I am less concerned by the mountaineers that climbed it alongside Sherpas at one point, and am more poking at the rich dickheads who have created the climb Mt Everest industry where Sherpas make sure everything is safe before the dickhead even wakes up. All just to say they climbed the mountain. So maybe at least use statistics from the current decade. It took another 31 years since the first attempt made for an Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay to succeed.
That was my first thought as well. They have to take the same trek, do additional work in it, yet do not have the financial resources to buy the same type of gear… nor can they complain b/c “that’s the job”. :-|
But in the climb we are all family right? /s
If so, they are getting off super easy, compared to what he does to his REAL fam. :-P
Eagles may soar, but weasels don’t get sucked into jet engines.
Damn, I’m gonna have to chill the fuck out then.
Ha ha ha, because mountains have snow, and snow is cold. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Unmotivated people die too
Usually on sofa or bed, so yeah I don’t see a problem.
Heck yeah bring this to us at !demotivational@lemmy.my.id if you haven’t already
i would like to post this on LinkedIn, but i am afraid i would get banned
I’m sure a few of them were the loved ones of highly motivated people who got dragged along.
I dunno, rich people will no grasp on the real world spring to mind
This made me giggle. Thank you OP
This is my favorite today.
I climb 14ers in the western US. I’m motivated but not that motivated which is why I don’t want to climb Everest and can’t afford to climb Everest.
