MOUNT EVEREST IS THERE AND THAT’S WHY THEY CLIMB IT BUT SOME NEVER RETURNED.
Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. You would be right to consider it the ultimate challenge for mountaineers
By the end of the 2010 climbing season, there had been 5,104 ascents to the summit by about 3,142 individuals. 80% of these ascents have taken place since 2000. In 2007, the record number of 633 ascents has been recorded, by 350 climbers and 253 sherpas.
However, more than 200 climbers have died, of which about 150 have never been recovered.
Yes, that is right. Their bodies are still there, unrecovered.
THESE 150 NEVER CAME BACK.
On rare occasions, one or two are recovered.
