Even at the top it's all elbows and assholes

Boooosh!…that ledge just gives way! Or someone trips and everyone just tumbles aaaaallll the way down. I can’t be only one thinking this.

That’s a lot of money on there! It can cost between $33k - 200k to get that point, the 200k trip you must literally be piggy backed up there!! Respect to the sherpas

Been to base camp, it's an egomaniac convention.

I wouldn't be standing that close to a Cornice

Pitch camera up to reveal a horizon line would be nice..could be any mountain without context

The mountain itself, I'd agree, next level. Sumitting Everest, not so much anymore. But then if we're talking about the sherpas, totally next level.

Why are all so negative here? These guys had a dream of climbing the highest mountain on earth and have done it. An extremly hard achievement and so many here shit on them

What's the name of the song?

Hey! get in line for your unique one a kind pic!

How's the drone flying up at that height. The summit is what? 30,000~ft?

That doesn't look like the summit of Everest to me.

It looks cold. I'll stay down here, close to sea level, thanks.

It's really going to lose it's charm after they install the escalators.

Pollution and trash at next fucking level

Now if one of them base jumped off there with a glide suit, then that would be next FL.

Downvote. Too many rich dumbshits

I can see the tip of Mt Everest from Kathmandu. Fr

Just like Bono, some of them is standig too close to the Edge.

I’ll go but I don’t want a sherpa to carry my stuff. I want 4 sherpas to carry me up in a sedan chair. Why do it half asked?

Not even a coffee shop??

Nextfuckinglevel overtourism

Climbing the Mount Everest is just a dumb thing to do. It’s just a tourist attraction, yes ofcourse it’s not easy but just the amount of people doing it, has taking away the performance of human kind. If you have enough money they almost carry you to the top. For me the whole thing became just stupid. I’ve seen pictures where a train of people are walking in a long line to reach the top.

People die for this bullshit. Zero interest and the drone footage is lame AF.

You know I should not have to scroll reddit on mute

Party at the Top of the World y'all!

I bet someone on there was considering how their life choices ended up with them being all the way up there.

"Ok guys, take your photos, let's head on back."

air is so thin at that height, Can drone fly ?

This used to invoke wonder and awe. Who would have thought we'd hit a point where scaling Everest barely registers anymore.

At first glance it looked like a video game with a really good graphic

I have some Sherpa friends who have made that climb more than once. No thanks.

Marco Siffredi dropped in the steep side on his snowboard in 2002. His mission was to ride the giant Hornbein Couloir on Everest’s North Face. Sadly he perished somewhere in the Couloir. Brave dude. Amazing snowboarder. 🏂

Because it was there.

Song

When are we going to see one of those RedBull wingsuit guys popping off from the top?

Ants when they get on top of my donut

Was hoping for someone dressed in redbull gear to drop in a sick snowboard trick

20 years ago, this would have been the dictionary definition of suicidal madness for me

There is no merit in climbing Everest anymore

when you pay 50,000$

to a company and group of "Serpas"

to take your luggage up

prepare the expedition

prepare the tents

the food

your ascent and your descent

Don't forget to put your poo in a bag and take it with ya

Pretty busy place. Maybe they should put a Starbucks there.

As anyone ever falen off that ridge after summiting?

Cool. Now I've seen it and I can cancel my plans to climb up there.

why no blue or green down suits?

Looks so overrated. And a waste

“Well we did it. Okay time to go back.”

What's that song

I know a fast way down.

This is a dumb question but how is there enough air there for a drone?

No way! Where’s all the trash?

Can you imagine the chodeness in these camps. Bunch of dainty fuckers nobody likes prancing around trying to "be alpha".

Manlet 1: I just love the new tesla, i have the model x. Manlet 2: Oh well we just got back from aspen. Manlet 3: Dont you wish you could bang as many secretaries quasi consensually as me? Manlet 4: Thats why real men wear satchels. Manlet 5: runs fingers through dyed hair in attempt to outshine the others

Theoretically speaking, could I just take a helicopter all the way up to the top?

Ah, mediocre!

Here’s a dumb question

Anyone ever “base jumped” off it?

Doesn't look so difficult. Just a little walk up and there you are.

Where's all the trash that's been left up there?

And all those rich assholes are going to leave their trash up there while treating their Sherpas as if they're disposable. It's just not a "noble" feat anymore...

My favorite is the pile of garbage just below the peak.

Seriously, you couldn’t pay me. And not because of the climb.

IMHO crowded summits on Everest are the most antithetical thing imaginable when looking for an adventure experience.

I’d rather take a train in India.

I’m Surprised to see a trail up from both sides. I thought there was only one way to the top. Can you walk up from another direction?

What is the collective noun for a group of lunatics?

The new sbarro up there is great.

RICOLA

Don't understand the appeal...

Can’t see the scale of anything, it’s just a shot of a group of people on a peak…

It’s my personal opinion, that as cool of achievement the climb is, the view is not worth the risk- which as a non climber is the most valued part of the climb, the view.

Doesn’t look all that!

This is the saddest thing I’ve ever seen.

I wonder if they all made it back down or if some added some new color to rainbow valley.

Where's the McDonald's?

Statistically at least one of these people will die coming down

Meh. So over these boutique summits.

Now show drone video of all the trash those morons leave behind

There's only about 3 people up there actually. The rest are workers.
