I just heard that 12 peoplle have now died in a so called death zone on Mt. Everest. My question to you all is what is driving this insane urge to climb this 29,000 feet high mountain.?!.People pay a $ 11,000 fee to the Nepalise government, and now we have a line of people on the worlds tallest mountain in this so called death zone Where there is not enough oxygen for humans to survive. What is driving this insane urge to climb this rock?. Vanity, Ego, ?? What drives people to risk their lives to climb Mt. Everest?!?!!. Your thoughts.
