@@marcofaustinelli7010 I beg to differ. This was their first assault on Everest. The north-east route had not been successfully climbed before. Two days earlier a female climber fell to her death attempting the same route. One of their 6-man team, Dick Renshaw, had been evacuated for stroke symptoms caused by high altitude. They were climbing without oxygen. The northeast route is considered more hazardous because more time in the death zone is needed to make the summit. Even if they successfully summited, they likely would have died on the return leg. I think their previous successes and belief in their own fame led them to overestimate their chance of success.

Yep, even GPS didn't locate them. My son insisted I take an apple airtag with me after I travelled south to buy a car and go home with it. He followed me from the bottom of the M6 to Aberdeen city, not exactly Everest but when I told him my ambition on my bucket list was to get to Everest base camp, he almost passed out! He would make me carry a dozen airtags in case a few gave out on the trek. My planned trip back in 2015 had to be postponed as I fell ill. I never recovered enough to get back to the people organising my trip, to finalise the details. It was to be fully portered, camp set up at night for me, chef to cook all my food and an experienced professional to accompany me as I walked. I wouldn't be carrying any rucksack other than my personal possessions and the whole trip was going to take me a week or more to get there, stay for 2 maybe 3 nights, then return to the city and fly home on an open air ticket. It was only costing me £2k at that point. The airfare was separate. Now I can't climb a set of stairs without becoming breathless, so Everest base camp will have to be there without me ever visiting. If I did try, I'd be risking other people's lives as well as my own and that's not acceptable in my book for the sake of ambition.

Not everyone who has ever climbed everest has had Sherpas helping them. Pete boardman and Joe tasker were more than capable of getting up there on their own. It hasn't always been the tourist trail that it is now. Infact permits aren't being given to 'real' mountaineers on everest now because the last time they tried to climb a new route on everest they crossed some Sherpa's ropes and the Sherpas nearly murdered them at base camp. Since then it's been banned unless you're guided by a Sherpa. So you don't need Sherpas to get up there, they just have the market locked in their favour.

People define "tragedy" differently...no one kidnapped them and dragged them there...they were exactly where they wanted to be doing what they wanted to be doing

The Sherpas that aid the silly Western climbers often are seen passing by the tourists and climbing without ropes and other fancy gear.

Sorry but a tragedy is when a person dies suddenly through no fault of their own. This is just another example of play stupid games win stupid prizes.

What's the point of climbing the Everest? If it's heroism or bravery, it's the most rewarding job of all, volunteering at various locations and positions, take groceries from food bank to poor people's homes if they're disabled accommodate their needs, but if the motive is showing off as an accomplishment, then they'd be impressing psychopaths who lack empathy, and if hiker dies, who's going to care?

To all those in the comments that say they'd never climb mount Everest. Sure, stay on your couch at home, I recommend you try out hiking still tho, easy routes are great for fitness and very beautiful and chances of dying are down to a minimum. Hiking in the mountains is for everyone, certain mountains are just for those who are well prepared and want to actually go there, they don't care about randos on the internet saying they're "nuts" for just doing something they enjoy, even if it is life threatening, they signed up for it, they are adults, they understood, the sherpas do it as their job, yes, they are the true masters of Everest as they have lived near it and climbed it many times and are just physically more equipped and YES they should be acknowledged by EVERY CLIMBER who had sherapas to help them but until Nepal and China ban access to the peak people will still climb it. Hell I bet when Mars has hotels on it people will start Climbing Olympus Mons. So, in conclusion, leave people alone to practice their hobbies and maybe try hiking too if you have mountains near you, check online the easy routes and don't go to high altitudes if you're not used to them! Have a good day everyone!
