I can understand why people like Hillary and Mallory might have wanted to do this.

But there is nothing unknown or special about this any more, really.

There is nothing adventurous or in any real way special or unique.

It is just stupid dangerous for no real gain or sense of achievement (Except perhaps from surviving stupid dangerous I suppose)

They might as well just install a ski lift!

Nowadays it just looks like a queue to a ride on a death roller-coaster!

Why do people do this??

:(

(Yes really, please give a dummy's guide! I am a hardware freak. Back in the 80's I had several hundred (perhaps more) pounds worth of Hi-Fi and one record! Yeah, I know, Its nutz! :cool: ). The intricacies of the inter-web and smartphones are really not part of my world bar e-mails and posting on forums)

Its called the "Death Zone" for a reason, there is only so long that you can survive up there. Some peoples limit is reached before others, even when the conditions are good.
