How would it be if there were no ski lifts? Imagine if you would have to climb up all by yourself? What if the mountain was much higher? What if the mountain was Mount Everest?
#9 Climb Mount Everest, and yes: To the very top of it. Dangerous but a great adventure.
"dangerous but a great adventure" |
"Mount Everest is the world's highest mountain above the mean sea level at 8,848 metres (29,029 ft). It is located in the Himalayas on the Nepal (Sagarmatha Zone)-China (Tibet) border.
By the end of the 2008 climbing season, there had been 4,102 ascents to the summit by about 2,700 individuals. Climbers are a significant source of tourist revenue for Nepal, whose government also requires all prospective climbers to obtain an expensive permit, costing up to US $ 25,000 per person. By the end of 2009 Everest had claimed 216 lives".

hmm maybe ill stick to eiffel tower as the highest i would go, really nice idea though to be up there
Saw a documentry on people climbing this.. Insane. Might die before I actually complete climbing this mountain xD
What I would be worried about is at the top the air is too thin to breath.
to climb the mount everest was a real dream of me as i was a child =).. but i dont think that i will ever climb the mount everest with my smoky lung
this mountain is a killer!
there are a lot of dead people lying next to the base camp...
What can i say, i will put McKenna quote: "A hallucination is a species of reality, as capable of teaching you as a videotape about Kilimanjaro or anything else that falls through your life."
good change is also the last thing you do in your life :3
I'd like to take you on a race to Mount Everest! I'v only been hiking once and I fell in love. Good luck!
I'd love to climb Mt.Everest one day, def on my list of things to do!
Climbing Mt. Everest is probably an aspiration for many people. However, it's a pretty ridiculous one. A climb of that magnitude required years if not a lifetime of training. It would be fucking awesome though.
I've read that there are about 120 human skeletons there (not on the top of the mountain of course)
I'll stick to my backpacking and hiking before I do anything crazy like climb Everest
Would be an amazing experience but I could never do it not in good enough shape.
This seems very dangerous, although a great adventure and a once in a life time experience! cool post.
I don't think I have the balls to climb it.
I used to love to ski, until an accident when I was about 10. Not many people realize how dangerous of a sport it is. Climbing Mt. Everest? Now thats something that definitely takes much courage and motivation.
ahhhhh, just came back from the top of everest, what have u guys done today? :D jokes
this is probably one of the toughest things you've listed so far. You have to know a lot of stuff to be able to scale a mountain that big.
this is on my list
+1
What about getting into a streetfight with a midget? Surely that could suffice rather than climbing Everest. Both are exhilarating, and death-defying.

Wow great aim, but hard to do!
ambitious! but i love it! cant wait to see what 99 is
Whoa, that is indeed a must-have adventure! Even though it's pretty dangerous, the experience will surely be memorable. What do you think?
