I wouldn't be too quick about condemning anyone, although that does seem to pass as a sport on this board at times.
I'm still not backing down from my position. There were 40 people up there and basically nobody lifted a finger to help the guy. To hell with each and every one of them.giggy said:I think anyone who steps foot on everest know the "deal" - I think its safe to say most on that hill, up that high, are so tired and wasted, its enough to get yourself down, never mind helping someone. I also think if your going to make an attempt on a mtn like everest, you know dying is a very real possibilty and to think if someone is going to help is crazy. If one doesn't like those odds - don't go to everest.
I don't know - of course I never been there so I don't know how it is - my thats my guess on the matter.
