Personally I can't imagine any good reason to climb everest anymore, if hundreds do it every year. I'd rather do something original.

- cobrausn 13y agoThere are 7 billion people on earth, and a few hundred do this thing per year, so now it's so mainstream it's not worth doing? Is the point to experience something or to tell people about how you experienced something they haven't? Odds are still that they didn't climb Everest.
- figglesonrails 13y ago+1 "Things aren't fun/good/interesting if hundreds do it." Pardon me if that doesn't sound a bit like the stereotypical hipster excuse not to do something - a fetish for being original. To each their own, but my goodness does that make my jaw drop.
- afarrell 13y agoYes, but what was the original point of climbing Everest?
- figglesonrails 13y agoClimbing the tallest mountain in the world?
- dahart 13y agoWhile the same thought has gone through my head, so I empathize... Isn't feeling the need to be the "first" at something the same logic as feeling the need to climb the "highest" mountain?
- spada 13y agoname one thing you've done in the past year that hundreds of others haven't.
