They are losers because they try to emulate things that someone did before them at the risk of their life and enduring unimaginable hardships in that case, but using every modern means possible to make the climb a few orders of magnitude easier (sherpas or guides placing oxygen canisters all around for them or literally dragging people up the mountain when they can't stand it anymore but hey they paid for it) just to brag about it.
Personally I don't care about doing it this way and I'm pretty sure I couldn't do it how real mountaineers do. I'm not bitter, I just think that what they are doing is a farce.
Kudos to those that attempt the ascent after years of real training and knowing what they do.
