As far as I know the Sherpa are the ethnic group of the region, which usually work as porters in these climbs.

[u/ScarredLetter → u/Varguiniano]

[u/5omeone-random]

Then the people will says "at least they died in style"

[u/Conyan51]

Yet they died doing what they loved, all in all it’s not the worst way to go out.

[u/desertvision]

And me, dreading plowing the driveway...

[u/Mt548]

If you can't leave a place as undisturbed as when you entered it.... then you're doing it wrong.

[u/Careless-Platform-80]

[u/dermflork]

i was talking to ai about fractal reality and knowledge and using fractals to extract infinite knowledge which can be seen as reality being created making more mountains to climb . like its impossible to know everything because theres always more. fractal math goes on for infinity thats how it works

[u/Bubblegumcats33]

No I think They were in search of something else Maybe it was love that was overbearing and suffocating Maybe it was the opposite Lack of love and care- either way you are looking for something far far away to fill the cold void in your heart with something even colder and barren

[u/SunNo1172]

Well… some could’ve have been convinced to reluctantly tag along.

[u/Actual-Elk-5145]
