This thread is often like "Well the inexperienced climbers are idiots, but the guys who know what they're doing are super cool heroes"

They're all loving stupid. It's a stupid thing to do. Being an experienced 8,000m climber just means you did a loving stupid thing more than other people.


yeah for real if Ueli Steck cannot dodge the capricous maw of the mountain what hope can mere mortals have?

Russian roulette is quite a bit safer than climbing K2, for every 6 people who attempt the mountain 4¼ make it home.

Was all the buzz around Neverending Story entirely because of the big tiddy statues? I never saw it until a few years ago and it suuuucked, the moral of the story was literally "Escapism solves all your problems" and it feels like an infomercial for MMORPGs that was accidentally sent back in time
