Abandoned on Everest

http://godheadv.blogspot.com/2010/04...n-everest.html

Fascinating blog post on what goes on in Everest's "dead zone" along with some unbelievable pictures.

NSFW warning...not because they're all graphic, but there are pictures of dead, frozen bodies.

You have to be crazy...

Quote:
This morning, however, Green Boots had company. Sitting no more than two feet to the left of the corpse was a man who at first glance appeared to be dead. His gloved hands were on his knees, his hood and hat cast his face in shadow. The only feature visible was the man's severely frostbitten nose, already a greenish black hue. On closer inspection, the vapor from the man's breath could be seen rising.

What happened next entered the folklore of the highest mountain on earth. Every man interviewed gives a different story. What is certain is that every single one of the 40-odd climbers attempting the summit that day left the man in the cave, whose name was David Sharp, to freeze, either by choice, by ignorance, or by misjudging him as a corpse they already expected to see in that infamous cave....

All you'd have to do is throw that person on your back, while you yourself are fighting hallucination and extreme fatigue from lack of oxygen, in a -40° environment which can see wind guts over 100mph, all while traversing terrain just like this:

I actually think this is an interesting discussion, moreso than an "argument." I might have missed it, but I haven't seen anyone called a stupid mother****er or giant raging douchenozzle for their opinions in this thread.

I think the closest we've ever come from a polling standpoint is whether guys should shave their legs or not. But it still wasn't unanimous.

well, some joker will always keep a poll from being 100% just to be a goof, but did someone seriously make an argument that men should shave their legs? (aside from some weird competitive reason where it actually is required, maybe)

I think the poll would have been a bit different if there was a Wahl (trimmer) option.

Just sayin...
