Prayers and love to the Sherpa and their families. They provide indispensable knowledge and work hard so other people may achieve their dreams. I'm thinking they are under appreciated and should be shown proper respect. Peace and blessings 🙏
Excellent update Thom! I’ve been waiting on your take on this climbing season. Please keep these updates coming. You’re experienced and who better than you to give incite on this season. Thanks Thom❤ Thanks to Angela as well!!! (Keep up informed on NW Annapurna route. Exciting stuff!)
As an ER/ICU/Trauma Nurse, I can clarify and prophesy that this woman will die if she attempts 14 - 8000 peaks in 6 months. Do you people know what putting the body through high altitudes, does to your blood? The Bone Marrow is what produces your red & white blood cells. At chronic high altitude your bone marrow will suddenly over produce red blood cells that are WAY too immature to carry Oxygen that feeds Oxygen to vital tissues; *Because the decreased Oxygen level will tell the Brain to tell the Bone Marrow to produce more Blood Cells because there isn't enough O2 to sustain the vital organs. Thus.....you will get Polycythemia and others types of Anemias. And....because you have too many blood cells in your blood vessels, as they over load the Liver to be filtered (they are excreted in our urine and feces), the Liver can & will fail from over loading the Liver. AND in addition to all these horrible diseases, you WILL get massive systemic blood clotting called DIC = Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation, as there are so many blood cells, they WILL aggregate, sticking together, causing blood clotting that WILL go to the Brain, Lungs, Heart, and other vital organs. And these above stated problems, are deadly!!!! You will NOT survive! Even if you are successful from each climb, it will all catch up to you by the 5-6 climb The climber WILL die from HACE or HAPE, secondary to massive systemic blood clotting (DIC), Pulmonary Emboli, Stroke, and sudden Cardiac Failure due to massive Cardiac Ischemia, Cardiomyopathies, etc. A fool that has an ego THAT big, and seeks attention THAT BADLY, needs psychiatric help more then climbing mountains to get accolades. How immature that is. Ugh! The uneducated.....ugh! And the psychotic....ugh!😒🙄🤔😲
Just a thought on a bit of a skewed mindset. For the rest of the world looking from a far these mountains look pristine and beautiful. The rubbish problems seems to only affect the people on the mountains. You break it you fix it , motto seem to wash over the mountaineering community. Am I being too harsh?
@@EverestMystery Thom, I thank you so much for bringing these video feeds so well. I like your laid back and knowledgeable perspective on high altitude climbing. Please put in perspective for me that the climbing Sherpa are welcomed on the teams and respected as a western climber is. It’s hard for me to watch at times when some of the westerners seem to disregard the hard work and very dangerous risks they perform. I know I have never climbed but I’ve been in several high stress, ( physically, emotionally and mentally), situations and I’ve had to have trust and faith in individuals that are from different nationalities and ethnic communities. I learned to establish a tight bond and build trust with them, for in several incidents I had my life in their hands.
Absolutely, what is happening now is that the commercial outfits are super eager to open this mountain up a little more....and unfortunately it will keep on getting busier there. Yes, on the new mountain idea! Thank you for watching
Hey Thom! I know this is a very novice question but I didn’t know where else to message you. I do not carry a Twitter page so I hoped to catch up on this year’s season of climbing. Any news from any camps, any injuries? As always, thanks Thom! For a complete novice, that’s just an avid fan of all the true mountaineers, I truly do thank you! Your warm and kind karma shows a very positive glow to your aura, (glow).
Ralph, thanks so much, I truly appreciate it. This year there have been three Sherpa deaths (Khumbu Icefall crevasse fall in April) and this week a 69 year old doctor from Seattle perished while resting at Camp 2. This was his second trip to the mountain, after having been unsuccessful last year. Hoping for good weather this year!
@Michael-qd8xp I have no problem with people snow boarding, but Everest is considered a Goddess by people, I’m not even sure it should be commercially climbed, the garbage that is left on Everest and other 8000 meter peaks is disgraceful.

I do hope to secure an interview with her someday....it is an interesting life, and as of yet she has escaped any tragedies in her expeditions. I pray that it stays that way. Thank you for watching!
Yes, I suppose hiring a very experienced guide is a good way to go. But, the mentoring idea is solid. That is how I got started, by climbing with people much more experienced than me, slowly gaining experience and confidence. Thank you for watching!

Thank you for sharing the medical intel on this. I think generally speaking, her time at altitude is going to be relatively limited. But, for sure, the accumulation over time has an impact on the body. Blood clots are a thing on high altitude peaks. I've known many that have had their expeditions end with a TIA. My own symptoms in 2019 resembled a TIA but a brain scan MRI (granted, only one test) revealed nothing to say that is what happened. Regarding the ego part, or the 'why' of someone doing this. My hope here is to offer a somewhat non-judgmental overview of the things that are going on in the 8000 meter peak world. Yes, I indeed have my opinions on it. But, I myself pursued mountain climbing with a single-minded focus for many years. Thank god I survived some hairy situations to be able to look back and observe. I've been in touch with Kristin's team and will hopefully have an interview with her soon. Check out her Instagram or any other social media of people showing their faces at altitude....from experience I can tell you that a few days in the Death Zone beats the living shite out of one's body, mind and soul. I hope you'll check out some of the other videos and share your thoughts. While I have a ton of comments waiting to be replied to, I try to reply to any comments on my full-length videos. I appreciate that you took the time to reply. You might like this interview with a friend of mine, Dr. Peter Hacket. It's an interview only, which I'll condense in video format. Nonetheless, you might find our conversation right down your alley: ruclips.net/video/mbVu3oDm4mI/видео.html Take care and thank you again! -Thom
Ok i have a question, why are we saying so much negative things about kristin whereas nimsdai doing the same was praised by the world ? I mean if i am not wrong she almost did it last year only i guess she didnt get a permit to climb cho-oyu . She seems like a lady who can do it. But why isnt her strength being priased but nimsdai was almost worshipped. Pardon me, Just trying to learn here. Also i love your content as i have started doing for treks from last 2 years and there is a lot of wonderful info here. ❤
Ultimately, I think it's what one does with it, how they use it. Edmund Hillary is a great example of giving back to the people who helped him so much. I got to interview him some years ago: ruclips.net/video/h3zEfPnrvUI/видео.html
You would hope that the companies charging exorbitant prices for guiding would go the extra mile in doing more than the minimum. I would say that yes, they do figure into it. But, everybody could be doing more. You might enjoy this video I did that featured six interviews with people trying to fix the situation over there: ruclips.net/video/ayL3_sP0vA4/видео.html Thanks for watching!
Prayers and love to the Sherpa and their families. They provide indispensable knowledge and work hard so other people may achieve their dreams. I'm thinking they are under appreciated and should be shown proper respect. Peace and blessings 🙏
Thank you Shelly, totally agree
Thanks, Thom for this great interview with Angela! Wishing Kristin all the best!

Peace and love, my brother. Always happy to hear your voice!
I wish for peace for the mountains.
Great interview, Sir. I always love to hear your guest impressions of the mountaineering goals and dangers. Thanks again.
Super happy that you enjoyed it! Thank you

The rubbish problems seems to only affect the people on the mountains. You break it you fix it , motto seem to wash over the mountaineering community. Am I being too harsh?
I will be bringing a story about the garbage and human waste problem again soon!

Any time my friend :) thank you!
Manaslu is the false summit one too. Not a good first choice. Not a fan of speed records. Climb a new mountain for fame.
Absolutely, what is happening now is that the commercial outfits are super eager to open this mountain up a little more....and unfortunately it will keep on getting busier there. Yes, on the new mountain idea! Thank you for watching

I personally wish they didn’t allow people to ski down the 8000 plus meter mountains.
Seems pretty much anything goes.... Thanks for watching!
Why though? Seems like a good way to get down quickly if one is that good.
@Michael-qd8xp I have no problem with people snow boarding, but Everest is considered a Goddess by people, I’m not even sure it should be commercially climbed, the garbage that is left on Everest and other 8000 meter peaks is disgraceful.

Thanks. Lots of info there I am sure there will be many tales to tell shortly.
You're welcome, and I think you are right....drama soon to unfold!
I do feel that the sherpas may be exploited at times
Yes, for sure, and definitely taken for granted. Thanks Meg for watching!
For safety reasons the word that comes to mind is Ludacris 😢❤
It would be cool to do a story about him trying to climb Everest! lol
I don't think he ever will😅

One was found alive!
Yes! Please see my recent upload that discusses that:

Thank you for watching!
People like Christine play with the health of the sherpas, summit 14 peaks in such a short time window is reckless.
I do hope to secure an interview with her someday....it is an interesting life, and as of yet she has escaped any tragedies in her expeditions. I pray that it stays that way. Thank you for watching!
I wish the experience people would mentor the people that are passionate to climb. This sport is so expensive who is new to this!
Yes, I suppose hiring a very experienced guide is a good way to go. But, the mentoring idea is solid. That is how I got started, by climbing with people much more experienced than me, slowly gaining experience and confidence. Thank you for watching!
Tom , I’m joining a Buddhist monastery for some time! Wish me luck. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Jeff, this is exceptional, I wish you all the best. Safe travels!
Great interview
Glad you liked it!

You're welcome, I hope to bring some more intel on this season soon!
Oh wow!! 🙏 to their families and friends.
Yes, indeed....thank you for watching, as usual :)

Looking forward to it👍
Man the lady who wants to do all 14 peaks… seems selfish

Hello my friend and thank you for watching. Here is my more recent update from the Nepal Himalaya: ruclips.net/video/WIk67aEg0sI/видео.html
Do the big money companies figure in rubbish removal ?
You would hope that the companies charging exorbitant prices for guiding would go the extra mile in doing more than the minimum. I would say that yes, they do figure into it.

Nims Purja done it.
Terrifying
For sure....
These mountains 🏔️ don’t want you on them
