Man people talk about getting away with murder saying there's no perfect murder but getting someone a trip to everest and trying to kill them on it? THat sounds like the perfect murder to me. 1 the mountain my kill them. 2 any attempt to screw them will probably result in their murder.


E:
Cruises also seem like a good place to kill people.

The best way to climb is to have a huge, luxurious team of Sherpas to carry you in a canopied transporter like a king.

Wow I missed 14 pages of the thread.
Have we had our annual influx of "actually you're all monsters for guessing how many people will die" posts yet?

Also: 1 single person will die on Everest this year. Even mountains must rest sometimes.

That would just incentivize Sherpas to toss rich pricks off the cliff although they may do some of this for fun already

I dunno man standing on the highest point in the whole world would be a cool thing to do and if you don't see how that's a draw I don't know what to say

That said I don't want him to die - I just hope he has people around him that stop him from dying in his attempt like that idiot Canadian woman. And at least he's done some preparation by climbing other mountains.

that kid is stupid but he's already done more with his life than most of the people in this thread so yall should think about that and hang your head in shame while you poo poo talk him from your cubicles.

Porter loved it, because the kid fed him snacks the entire time and the kid weighed less than the typical load.

Like leaving them to the wolves. I think that might actually be more humane.

Tim Medvitz as a guide just makes me

I can Ladysplain.

The long story is contained within the Discovery show 'Everest:Beyond the Limit' in which walking 'RUFTY TUFTY USA BIKER' stereotype Tim Medvitz attempts to scale Everest. He was in an accident (which iirc was on Sept 11 2001) which the show tells you about at least 3 times a show, and is packed full of metal pins, staples and other stuff, so that makes him SPESHUL. He is climbing with Russell Brice's Himex outfit, regarded as the best on the Mountain. However being an American Stereotype he thinks he knows better than the leader and veteran Brice and frequently ignores his demands to come back and generally pises Brice off with his 'If you can dream it you can do it' attitude which people like Brice are not fans of, especially if it leads to a fatality on the mountain and a spot on Brice's (so-far) spotless 0 Fatalities rate.

Here is a video with his INJURIES montage included which you will see a lot if you watch the show (which is, having said that, is a Good Show)

He's not a BAD GUY, he treats the Sherpas with respect and knows a bit of Nepalese, but, he's the antithesis of everything that Brice is. (edit-oh yeah he got to the top of Everest the next year, breaking his hand in the process and neglecting to tell base camp who surely would have told him to return immediately)
