“I saved a stranger’s life on Everest” is a much more impressive story than “I summited Everest” in my opinion
-
Saving a life is a feat more admirable than reaching the summit.
-
Those men who gave up there attempt to summit, in order to help a total stranger whom they thought might not make it even with their help, are true heroes.
-
Dead weight means something on Everest. This is not a joke. Saving anyone on the mountain is life threatening to all involved.
-
I started hallucinating on my first attempt on a 7000m peak (Spantik). It was brutal, in the pitch black night alone at around 6500m I saw lights all around me, heard people talking, but I knew there were no people. That was my wake up call and I turned back. If I had pushed on, I think I wouldn't be here now.
-
Those guys who saved Hall are special. For me, they're proof that humanity and decency are still with us.
-
I was on Mt Rainier with Dan Mazur, he’s the most wholesome guy I’ve ever met. Excellent teacher and super caring. Zero surprise that he disregarded a summit attempt to help a stranger.
-
Everest has been summited almost 12,000 times since 1953. The mountain has become a graveyard for 300 climbers, and it is covered in garbage. Climbers routinely lose fingers, toes and even noses to frostbite. I don't understand why people still risk life and limb to climb it. It's no longer a rare achievement.
-
After the third near death situation, I’d have accepted mountains hated me and stopped trying to climb them.
-
Saving a man's life and preventing a family tragedy is worth $20,000, much more important than summiting Mt. Everest. What an incredible miracle to find him alive and save his life.
-
I absolutely could not walk past a living human, to simply summit a mountain. Kudos to these guys!
-
As a professional firefighter/paramedic my ultimate goal was to actually be involved in the saving of a life. I can’t imagine a more satisfying feeling one could have knowing you saved a life! An absolutely wonderful and fulfilling feeling!
-
I never hear people talk about how amazing Sherpas are. ETA: I'll save y'all the trouble of reading (or more likely not reading and simply assuming some silly ish lmao) I am basically saying they don't get the praise and recognition they deserve, especially as individuals.
-
3 things: 1. Once over 8000m, your body is dying without any supplemental oxygen as there is not enough o2 in the air to support life. 2. It is important to note that once having experienced frostbite, for the rest of your life those areas will be more prone to frostbite again. 3. The reflex used to check if your brain has died is the 'eyeball poking' one. They were checking if he was considered brain dead.
-
The real tragedy is paying 20,000$ to climb something that could kill you.
-
You would think that your memories of summiting Everest would be a bit soured by knowing that you'd ignored a dying man who needed help. Some people.
-
There really isn't a moral dilemma, dreams and goals don't mean more than someone's life.
-
The biggest heroes are the sherpas. They are truly superheroes. Respect
-
The Sherpas are the real unsang heros that go unrecognized. I celebrate them in a special way.❤❤❤❤
-
Kudos to the the team and sherpas who saved this man. The selfless act these guys committed is of legendary status.
