Mountain

There are signs and milestones as guides to any country. Everest, the highest peak on Earth, also has such indicators. The bodies of dead people known by various names are only guides on Everest. At the highest point on Earth are the bodies of more than two hundred adventurers who fell before and after reaching the dream of Everest due to various reasons.

Weather and hazards are the main problems faced by Everest climbers. There are many reasons that have led to the death of every hiker, such as falls during the climb, problems due to lack of oxygen, snow, and the weather that turns hot in minutes. Cyclones can often appear suddenly on the way to Everest. Many of these gusts are capable of uprooting climbers. Those who sit down to rest for a while due to exhaustion have gone to sleep and then frozen to death. Ask anyone who has climbed Everest and knows about these frozen bodies. The snow-covered bodies of more than two hundred travelers scattered in many places have caused memories that will never die in their minds.

To reach Everest base camp, you have to climb the mountain for seven days. After spending two weeks acclimatizing here, every traveler tries to climb Everest. Death lurks in every breath these days to Everest. Everest is the dream of mountain climbers all over the world. Besides being the highest peak, Everest is also the most adventurous mountain climb on earth. Everest’s base camp is located at an altitude of 17,700 feet. Day 1 camp is at an altitude of 20,000 feet. After resting from here, we will start climbing to the camp nicknamed Advanced Base Camp (ABC). The height here is 24500 feet. Oxygen levels in the ABC will be greatly reduced. Death can occur here if you don’t wear an oxygen mask while climbing the mountain and even while sleeping. The next camp is at 26000 feet. Henceforth every mountaineer will fight for life and death. It is from here that the decisive decision whether to go up or down is made. Even if you want to go back after starting from here, you will not be able to do it later. One slip of the foot, one wrong decision, and death prevails.

Decreasing oxygen levels can reduce the presence of oxygen in the brain and even affect decision-making ability. All the bodies of those who succumbed to death while ascending or descending Everest have become a part of that peak. It is impossible to bring all the bodies back to earth. Because more than the corpses seen by every mountaineer are the never-seen bodies buried in the snow of the Himalayas. But the bodies of some have been returned. It’s just that the human effort involved is too much.

Another fact is that nature preserves all the bodies of the dead here very well. The weather on Everest is behind this difference. Even the bodies of those who died decades ago have not suffered much damage. The all-time extreme cold, snow and dry ice winds keep the corpses from decomposing. This is also one of the reasons behind human bodies being guides.

The body of mountaineer David Sharp is found sitting near a cave. This cave is known as Green Boots Cave. David attempted to conquer Everest in 2005. Meanwhile, sitting near the cave for a short time, his body became so cold that he could not move. Thirty climbers passed David Sharp as he staggered to his death. They only thought that one of them was going to rest. Some of the climbers who had reached the end noticed some groans coming from David. After further investigation, they realized that their friend was dying. David Sharpe was still unconscious but immobile.

Indian green boots

The body of Sewang Paljor, an Indian, lies near another cave on the way to Everest. His body is lying down, wearing green boots. He lost his life in 1996 during his dream journey. Sewang Paljor suffered a setback when the group went astray. He sought refuge in a small cave entrance to escape the bitter cold and died there. Those green boots still rest on Everest, reminding every climber how close the goal is.

Everest that keeps bodies intact

The body of George Mallory, who died trying to climb Everest 93 years ago, is still unharmed on the summit. The adventurer succumbed to his death while trying to become the first man to climb Everest. George Mallory was the first adventurer to reach Everest in 1953, before Tenzing Norge and Edmund Hillary, who failed by a difference of 245 meters. His body was identified in 1999. Whether or not he had an accident while climbing Everest still remains one of the many mysteries known only to Everest. Mountaineers still honor these adventurers by placing stones around the bodies of dead climbers. Many bodies are lying in strange ways. There are those who have fallen headlong and those who are trying to get up.

Conquering Everest is the biggest dream of any mountaineer. Therefore, anyone would want to stand on top of that dream that they have longed for all their life. But climbers are only allowed to stay on top of Everest for a maximum of minutes. The reason behind this is that every second you stay at the top reduces the distance to death.

That’s what happened to Sri Shah Lorf, born in Nepal and living in Canada. Sri Everest is believed to have spent about 25 minutes on top of Everest. Shriya dies on the way back without getting enough oxygen. There was also an allegation that Shriak and his team were helped by a guiding company with no experience in Everest. Shriya dies on May 9, 2012. After ten days, the body was brought down to 8000 meters. From there, he was brought down by helicopter.

Sleeping Beauty owns an unbreakable record

American Frances Arsyanev met with an accident while climbing Everest. She climbed Everest with her husband’s group. Sergey Arsyanev learned about Francius’s accident too late. He didn’t have enough oxygen to get back to base camp if he went to the top in search of his wife. Determined to face anything, he went back in search of Francis. It is believed that Sergei also slipped and fell to his death while trying to reach his fallen wife. In the meantime, two members of the Uzbek group climbing Everest came to Franzia Arsyanev, who was on the verge of death. Due to the accident, extreme cold and lack of oxygen, they were already unable to move. The dead body of Frances, who was forty years old when she died, is known among Everest climbers as Sleeping Beauty. Although he succumbed to death, Francis left with a record that no one could break. The sleeping beauty still holds the unbreakable record of being the first American woman to climb Mount Everest without the aid of an oxygen cylinder.

These men deserve respect for being willing to give their lives for their dreams. They will be on top of Everest for centuries to come, receiving nature’s posthumous ministrations. Imparting unforgettable lessons to every adventurer who climbs Everest.
