I don't want to climb Mt Everest

I stumbled across this page about all the bodies abandoned on Everest.  That's right, bodies.  Just straight-up dead bodies littered all over the mountain.  People just climb right on past them, on the way up, and on the way down.  There are even charming landmarks like "Green Boots Cave" and "Rainbow Valley", named after the colorful corpses littering the mountain.

Understandably, climbing Everest is crazy dangerous, so a rescue mission is next to impossible.  But I just...don't get it.  If I was walking down the street, and saw a dead body on the sidewalk, I would think "Hmmmm, this place seems unsafe.  I'm going to turn around and go home."  I would not just step over the dead body and skip off along on my merry way.  No goal or achievement is that important.

Anyway, I still find the article/blog interesting, because I am sick and twisted.  So give it a read.  If you don't mind looking at relatively unoffensive dead bodies.  And some super-gross frostbite pics.

I'm sure that really made you want to read it.  Whatever.  Moral of the story: I don't want to climb Mt. Everest.
