Has there been autopsies on the dead yet?

Did most die from freezing or from being mangled?

Frankly I don't see the point. The Sherpas have casually strolled up there a million times already, it's not as if anyone is breaking new ground by going there.

>I CLIMBED MOUNT EVEREST!

That's the point. Your average person doesn't completely understand what that actually means.

It means several progressive climbs, then a suicidal dash to the summit, hang out on top for like ten minutes then race back down before you fucking die.

It's also a logistical nightmare and the poor fucks that volunteer/funded to play doctor watch people die all the time for being reckless. There's simply way too many fucking people up there and they spend the majority of their time not climbing to the top
