    After everyone giving Noel grief for flying to Houston for a Longhorn Steakhouse steak. Noel says, "Hold my beer... I can do better, I will fly to Everest Base Camp to eat KFC." Love it!

    Walked up to base camp in 1993 with my friend Deborah. At that time Luckla was unpaved. The Everest view hotel was closed at that time. Afterwards we walked out all the way to Jiri roadhead then bus to Kathmandu. Then we got an unscheduled flight to Lhasa and ended up driving back to Nepal stopping at Rongbuk Monastery and walking to North base camp, also unpaved and inaccessible in those days. Like it was for you this was such an amazing experience. A few months later at Piedrahita in Spain I achieved my best altitude in my hang glider of 14300 feet. I remembered that I was still 3000 feet lower than the highest bed I slept on up near Everest!

    For a brief moment I was worried, until the more logical part of my brain kicked in and said "he's narrating the video; that's something he could only do after the video's been filmed, so obviously he survived to be able to do that."

  • @Mike-vs3dv

Would really love to see this entire journey (from Low Cost challenge through Lukla to Base camp and home) as one long film as I have thoroughly enjoyed the whole adventure. Music was superb accompaniment too.
    I get strange feelings when I see Lukla, it’s almost like I need to go there as it feels so familiar.. hope I get to go there some day.

    In a helicopter, the pilot sits in the right seat. The look of relief was on the passenger's face, not the pilot's.
    As a mountaineer, I can tell you that un-acclimatized exposure to high elevation (hypoxia) produces effects very similar to severe alcohol intoxication.
