Whatever your policy on ducking, everyone needs to stay the gently caress away from the tail rotor.

Why is everything on this loser’s wiki page acting like he is a big deal, homeboy only has 700k subs “Oh he’s groundbreaking and he was super popular in 2017”, spare me, it’s 2023, and shockingly he has an audience of chuds and children, and not even a huge one at that

He got his face pushed in by Uwe Boll? What's his opinions on Mangosteen? He might be Lowtax's brother from another mother. Related to Cool Mountain poo poo, didn't see the full film posted earlier: https://www.redbull.com/gb-en/films/k2-the-impossible-descent Here's the full hour long documentary on the dude who went skiing down K2.

Nice Tuckpointing! posted:It still amazes me that the video opens with a drone shot of the summit of K2 like it ain't no thing. The kind of people who would ski down K2 are absolutely without fear, watching that dude start to slide down the mountain past the other climbers, greeting them and wishing them good luck and receiving the same, I know the thought was in his head that he was probably going to die within the next hour or 2. The absolutely huge balls it takes to look at doing something that nobody thought would be possible, evaluate it, and go "yes I'm going to do this", and then having the skill to be able to make it down the mountain is insane.

If you watch Meru (and you should it's both awesome and thread-relevant) I like how Jon Krakauer casually drops in that Jimmy Chin skied Everest. Jimmy is a super cool guy. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=qdWzTqyMtSU

HAM ON THE BONE posted:attention goons: it’s 8:30am in nepal and our hero has awoken lmao 122bpm resting heart rate king, dude is going to stroke the gently caress out before getting to base camp, though from what I am seeing he seems to have mellowed out slightly from what he was a couple days ago. Still the dumbest motherfucker on the trail, and the sherpas would be justified in knocking him out and stealing his poo poo, but puking your guts out at 2am from overexertion and altitude sickness causes a re-evaluation of how serious the poo poo you're attempting is. orange juche fucked around with this message at 04:18 on May 24, 2023 |

Lmao he started eating breakfast and immediately folded up into the "i'm about to hurl" pose. Dude needs at least another day of acclimatization at the current altitude before continuing on, but he wants to hike 6 hours today. Man's going to absolutely wind up needing medical evac before he gets to base camp. E: Deepak is telling him that he needs to eat and rest, and not continue yet, but dummy wants to continue. orange juche fucked around with this message at 04:34 on May 24, 2023 |

Alan Smithee posted:ya ngl I wanna go to basecamp Though gently caress livestreaming it. I did a group tour to Bhutan 10 years ago and the last day was the hike to the Tiger's Nest (which is surprisingly close to the airport). I can't imagine obsessing over the stream's chat while doing that.

dr_rat posted:So looks like there is wi-fi at base camp and 3g cell network in areas going up to it: The cell network is poo poo, but a lot of teahouses sell one of two networks called "everestlink" which is data capped and some other thing I can't remember that's 24hour. It works all the way up through Gorak Shep, but in base camp itself there's a few localized hotspots that run starlink or something, I think they may be managed by the individual trek companies, not sure if that one's wide area like the other two.

Magic Underwear posted:He's at Namche, 11,290ft. So he's struggling with over a vertical mile left to climb. The climb up to namche is loving brutal, especially since it's day 2 at altitude and the lower you call home the worse off you are. The vertical climb that day is equal to taking the stairs at the eiffel tower 5 times.

I always seem to catch these guys when they're resting, I thought I saw some actual hiking there for a second and 5 minutes later they're at a rest-stop restaurant, while watching joels stream it looked like poseidon was really shuffling forward having a hard time keeping balance. He's really the worst off in the group, joel seems unbothered by everything even dancing at the rest-stop and deepak seems fine too but poseidon is just laying down at the rest-stop. Edit: Now he's saying he's very dizzy while laying down, I think he's feeling the effects of the climb for real, he really shouldn't push himself further and take a long rest, this isn't good Edit 2: Seems like he's regretting pushing himself too hard, he's feeling ill, drat, this is pretty sad, he needs to go down after eating and drinking a lot, continuing up is dumb and I hope he makes the right call.
