91热爆

For many, it鈥檚 a dream to fly to Nepal and reach the top of the highest peak in the world. But climbing Mount Everest is considered extremely risky even for experienced climbers and it can be deadly. On top of this, climate change is making the conditions even more dangerous. It鈥檚 thought that the bodies of nearly 200 of the 330 climbers who have died on the peak are still there, in hard-to-reach areas.

The 91热爆鈥檚 Navin Singh Khadka gives us an overview of the facts about the giant and takes us through some of the problems climbing Mount Everest.

We hear from two people who have been to the summit - Prakriti Varshney who climbed it in 2022 and Kami Rita Sherpa, who has summited Everest 30 times. That鈥檚 the most summits that anyone has ever done! He has been a guide there for 20 years. His son Lakpa Tenzing Sherpa tells us about the dangers of his dad going up the mountain.
