What Is Mt. Everest?

Climbing Mount Everest is a dangerous undertaking, a Herculean task fraught with difficulties, danger, complexities and volatile weather conditions. Disaster can strike without warning, leaving the most competent and experienced professional high altitude mountain climber gasping for breath, and desperately fighting to stay alive. Death is not uncommon to mountaineers who

On May 10th 1996, the most catastrophic storm on Mount Everest took place. On this day a group of mountain climbers would reach the summit of Mount Everest, but five would not make it back down. The climbers reached the summit early afternoon that day but were not expected a fatal storm to hit. The storm strangled many on the top of the mountain and killed 5, including one of the most respected high-altitude guides in the world, Rob Hall.

A monstrous earthquake shook Nepal on April 25th, this year. It killed more than 8,000 people and the earthquake was so powerful, it may have shrunk Mount Everest. The famous peak lost almost about an inch according to U.S. analysis of satellite data. Chinese data suggests that the mountain has not shrunk; it has only been shifted a few centimeters. Mount Everest still remains the highest mountain in the world at twenty-nine thousand twenty nine feet above sea level. Scientists were not surprised by the movement, though. “While these quakes may have lowered Everest the ongoing plate motion that created the Himalayas will increase Everest’s height over the long term,” says Susan Owen, a NASA scientist in California.

Mount Everest is the most beautiful mountain to look at in plain sight, but it is also questionable what happens when people try to get on top of Mount Everest just to have a better scenery of the whole world or have finally completed their quest.

In this article of “Time for a Break on Everest”, “The falling ice hit twenty-five men, killing sixteen of them…” (Source #2). In the current situation, the weather and the dangers are known to be unpredictable. In that case, it will make some of the most skilled climber, die due to unpredicted natural causes.

There is no doubt that anyone has heard about the famous Mount Everest. A majority of people go every year, whether they want to just see the sights or they actually dare to climb it and reach one of the greatest achievement of anyone's life. But for some people they do not enjoy the thought of people climbing the mountain and risking their life, in some cases taking their lives.

Climbing Mount Everest is a bad idea because many people have died. And it is also dangerous. If you climb it there is probably 90% that you might die.According to the text book on page 420 it says “about 2,000 of them have succeeded, But 1800 or more have died”. This shows that many of the people have died and that it is risky . Also in Peak it tells us about how cold the mountain is and how some people have died because of the cold weather.

Some 30 climbers have suffered frostbite or become seriously ill on Everest in recent days, as the spring climbing season comes to a close.

It had only been three weeks that I started working for Everest ER, a clinic operated at 17400 ft in the Himalayas. Our logistics manager told our medical team that he saw a massive avalanche falling on the queue of around two hundred Sherpa porters, who were carrying loads to Camp One at 19680 ft.Without having any time to soak in the news of the disaster, we immediately started our preparation to receive the casualties. We had no idea about the types of injuries and the number of peopIe affected. Even worse, we feared that the deaths could be much higher. Our team of doctors, paramedics and trained rescuers present on the Base Camp worked in a coordinated fashion. After 12 long hours between helicopter rescues and
