144 heart rate as he takes what looks like a pretty normal set of stairs on the trail. You think he knows when to quit, or are we about to watch a snuf livestream?

From a quick Google 8-14 days seems the standard range to reach the Base Camp, specifically including multiple rest days. This guy definitely needs a couple of more days for his body to adapt before he sets off hiking again.

Yeah, everyone he meets is telling him that it's dangerous but he doesn't care, he's chasing those kick-dollars so he's throwing caution to the wind.

Edit: He's also pressuring his friends to do the same, so it's likely one of them will fall ill soon

can't believe shrek is fucking dead. rip to a real one.
I'm kramering in for a special announcement:

Do not, under any circumstances, take glee in any misfortune that happens. Don't hope for his death, don't wish for any harm. If you want to discuss how dumb he is for doing this, go for it, but I'm going to come down hard on anything that seems like you're wishing for this dude to get harmed or die.

Thank you

Can I hope for the misfortune of looking really really dumb on screen? I hope so because that's already getting fulfilled in spades.....

It would also be awesome if his stream got demonitized but thats not looking so likely. Dumb idiot is still going to be making his money.

Cool! I hope he has a sudden and profound realization of what a stupid rear end he's been and rethinks all his life choices to date.

A temple actually would be a really appropriate location for this, he should stay there awhile.

Jesus Christ, what an idiot.

We had a youtuber die climbing a mountain in Italy a few years ago, apparently because he literally stepped backwards off a cliff face while trying to record himself, of course with no fall-arresting equipment of any kind.

Maybe we should just lock all streamers up in their houses for their own sake, they're clearly not safe to be out and about, at least not anywhere higher than sea level.

pretty sure he already knows he won't be climbing the real thing, but even if he were 100% committed the ropes are sounding likely to be taken down in the next few days

I love mountain hikes but you won't see me taking a picture sitting off the edge of a cliff like I see a lot of people do when I do my yearly trips.

One slip up and you've got a surprisingly long time to contemplate how hosed you are

This is a video of someone doing some ski mountaineering and kinda accidentally slipping backwards off a cliff. He is OK! But, content warning: traumatic to watch

My secret hope is that he realizes that the all the people he passes are just locals living their lives and maybe don't barge into their yards and homes. Maybe he gets curious about the temple, and respects it.

I'm betting he eventually twists his ankle on the most mundane part of a trail, makes up a bunch of reasons to give up, and that's that. Either that or he makes it to base camp and gets the side-eye from every single person there.

I saw on Wiki that unless you have a climbing permit they don't let you in to the proper base camp, so there's a lol there already.

Yeah, it seems from the collection of "HIKING TO BASE CAMP!!!" dub-steppy YouTube vids, there's the mountaineer equivalent of the kids table for these types that stays a healthy distance from the genuine base camp.

Oh no.

A 32-year-old woman from North Carolina died after her vehicle crossed the center median on Interstate 85 in the Greensboro-Winston-Salem area, upon which it collided with a recycling truck, left the road, hit a tree, and burst into flames – moments after posting selfies online when she heard Pharrell Williams's song "Happy" playing on radio station WKZL inside her car.

Edit:
Still reading through this article and it's apparent that Trains and electricity have been waiting a long time for selfies to come along so they could team up to kill as many people as possible. Not that trains haven't been monstrous mass-killers before, but since things are a good deal safer than during their salad days as murderers, selfies have given them a fresh lease on death.
