Plants have feelings and are intelligent just like humans and animals...

still dont get why people keep risking their lifes by trying to climb the thing.

i mean, you can prove your fitness in less risky ways

most are wealthy people living on the edge of "elite"
and want to be invited into the club.

it's all a game.

Your Mom went to the Moon.

In 1969.

I can only speak for myself as to why I would want to climb it and its for the challenge and adventure and the comradery that comes with such a long grueling risky and dangerous trek. Your lives are literally in each others hands. Strikes a real ancient memory in the human dna from the time we were explorers fighting for survival. The most important things in life and the rawest things in life float to the surface and you learn alot about life and yourself.

low iron levels?

Good morning, Mr Darwin.

Weve made extra awards this week.....

Really? Sounds to me like 100% of vegans attempting the climb died.

On May 19, 2016, Kuntal Joisher, a dedicated vegan, successfully climbed the summit of Mount Everest. But where’s that story? Why is no one reporting on that? Perhaps it’s because as a society, we have grown defensive against the vegan diet. Despite the fact that reports and studies come out every week detailing the negative health and environmental impacts of meat consumption, we do not want to accept that we may need to tone down our obsession with meat. That is, if we want to continue living on this planet.

they all have to take oxygen anyway, so what's the point

Although not in the climbing community, I met Scott Fischer while working with his wife - she was expecting their first child at the time.

Talk about FIT! Even his finger joints were well developed - dude just looks so powerful - he had movie star looks to boot - never met someone like Scott - again, in incredible shape. He would put the Arnold to shame, minus the fake, steroid muscles. Nice guy, very focused, but did not fit in with the corporate types whatsoever.

Obviously a legend now and viewing the books/movies about him, makes me think absolutely no one is immune to the powers of Mt. Everest. Not even Scott.

Sometimes I think the earthquakes that rattled the mountain a few years ago was the mountain shaking off the hordes that attempt to climb its sacred peak every year. They're like fleas now and littering it like a garbage dump. The gods are not happy.

Mountain climbing means a lot to people who seek to find purpose in their lives. Can't blame them really - we all live in such a fake reality and may think "What's the point?" each day we wake up.

If you're willing to take the risk, vegan or not, mountain climbing is similar to going to Las Vegas. Chances are, you're not going to win but may die trying and a miserable death at that.

link?

ing this one for the retard who just made a new thread about it.

Livin' the lie, until you die.
