I would start from an airplane and land on the mountain top with my wingsuit.

It seems like it should be very easy to just land on top of Everest helldivers style

Concerning the thread title, what happens if I don't produce 8.8oz of excrement per day? What happens if I ate a gas station burrito on the way to everest and drop a log the size of an infant? Do I have to purchase additional poop credits to make up for it?

A gas station burrito has NOTHING on 3 dal bhat meals a day. God help you if you eat meat above Namche Bazzar.

Definitely avoided meat but even then, I got food poisoning a day out from Manang near Tilicho lake. I was lying in bed feeling sick and I thought it was altitude sickness since we were around 4500m up at that point. Went to the toilet (hole in the floor) and realised I had to go from both ends and I was actually relieved when I realised it was food poisoning lol. 24 hours later I was fine and could keep going. Turns out it was the dal bhat that caused it, they had it luke warm in a big pot all day with some funky looking dumplings. Annoyingly every time I even smelled it after that, I couldn't stand it so I had to switch up the diet.

Two Mongolian climbers attempted to summit with no oxygen or Sherpa support. They made it to the top. The return trip did not go as well. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/worl...148402b8ad&ei=9

I've always wondered, is it considered a success when you manage to reach the summit of a mountain, but fail the return trip down?

smoobles posted:In many ways the Titan submersible story is the reverse of an Everest fatality It's like if 110 years ago a bus driving at the foot of Himalayas got into a freak accident that caused the bus to blow up to the sky and end up on an unreachable mountain slope. And now billionaires can get to watch the frozen grave from a dirigible steered with a Logitech controller.
