It's still water, just in a different state.

I actually think this is an interesting discussion, moreso than an "argument." I might have missed it, but I haven't seen anyone called a stupid mother****er or giant raging douchenozzle for their opinions in this thread.

It's ridiculous that they have to do stuff like that. Someone should build a road up there.

Where the hell did they get the extension ladders? Is there a Home Depot on Mt Everest?

Wait a minute, those aren't extension ladders at all, they are individual ladder sections roped together. **** that shit.

I wonder if they geocache up there. Maybe the ladders were in a geocache.
"Ooh, look. Some baseball cards and a ring and - hey, an extension ladder! We can use that!"

It seems to me... we have suits that allow us to walk safely and somewhat comfortably.. in SPACE.. yet we can't make a suit that would protect a climber.
The fact is, we probably can and these climbers are mostly morons. On another note, the minute a Frenchman landed a helicopter on the summit... was the minute I stopped being impressed with the whole endeavor... |

Yeah - don't the suits they use for space walks and stuff weigh like 300 lbs?

Cold and lack of oxygen should NEVER be an issue with modern tech. Again, if this were 1911 I would be impressed .. as it stands, in 2011, it falls under the realm of stupid crap people do to achieve a false sense of self worth. I'm equally impressed with Daniel Baraniuk... |

haha, good point... I assume he means their weight at sea level... but I think we could strip out a good deal of weight since we don't need a layer for micrometeoroid protection, nor most of the communications equipment, nor does it have to be entirely self contained.. etc etc
