Not only is climbing Everest becoming morally questionable, it's also just not impressive anymore. It used to be quite a feat. Now you're just one in a crowd of instagrammers.
If you want to do something impressive, climbing Everest is no longer that thing.
- kzrdude 7y agoSome people are impressed by money / spending. And climbing everest means spending a lot.
- aileenwu 7y agoThat's true. But buying a Lamborghini and a big mansion would be a quicker and more effective way to show off with wealth.
- Cthulhu_ 7y agoIt's still not something to be taken lightly, and it will take a lot of training, preparation and equipment to do it.
