The cost of climbing Everest just went up—A LOT! But, at what cost? Nepal has raised permit fees to $15,000 per climber, yet none of that money is going toward improving Sherpa safety. In this video, we expose how Everest has become a business where money talks, and ethics disappear. Featuring an exclusive interview with Angela Benevides of ExplorersWeb, we uncover the heartbreaking story of Nawang Sherpa, who had no prior Everest experience but was assigned to assist a climber attempting a no-oxygen summit bid. When things went wrong, Nawang refused to leave his client’s side. Both men perished. No safety reforms. No accountability. Just another tragedy buried under Everest’s growing commercialization. So we ask—what's a life worth?

Just imagine the surprise and shock you would get if when your telephone rings one morning and it's a call from Kathmandu, Nepal and on the end is a world famous mountaineer, that his team has found the partial remains of your long lost great uncle, who disappeared 100 years ago. That happened to today's guest, Julie Summers, the great niece of Sandy Irvine, who disappeared alongside his climbing partner George Mallory on June 8, 1924 endeavoring to become the first to stand on top of the world's highest mountain, Mount Everest. I interviewed Julie from her home in Oxford, England.She shares her shock at receiving the call and discusses all things about the Mystery of Mallory and Irvine and what might have happened on that fateful day in June of 1924.

1 Everest's Haunting MYSTERY: Did GEORGE MALLORY Contact Psychic Medium Geraldine Cummins After Disappearing on Mount Everest in 1924? 30:28
Under the glow of séance candles a psychic medium sits trancelike at a table, in front of her is a blank notebook. She begins to write the words of a spirit claiming to be George Mallory - the mountaineer who disappeared with his partner Sandy Irvine high upon the north face of Everest only months previously: “I am Mallory” the words appear from her pen “I can remember still the struggle for breath….and the awful cold.” Today we’re going to explore something truly otherworldly, the automatic writings of Geraldine Cummins, one of the great spiritual mediums of her time….who between November 1924 and January of 1925 wrote numerous scripts based on visits by George Mallory.

They say that gong to the summit is only halfway. And nowhere was that more true than on May 10, 1996 on Mount Everest. On that day Everest became the stage for one of the most harrowing disasters in mountaineering history. Eight climbers perished in a brutal storm, and as the world tried to make sense of the tragedy, a chilling truth emerged: success on Everest isn't just about reaching the summit—it's about surviving the descent. In Part 2 of our deep dive into the '96 Everest disaster, we uncover the unsettling facts that point to two ambitious guides, Rob Hall and Scott Fischer, whose decisions played a pivotal role in the events that unfolded. The stakes were high, the clock was ticking, and the mountain demanded its toll.

Scott Fischer's fateful act may have been the clouded ambition that led him to say they were building a yellow brick road to the top of Mount Everest, and days later he was consumed by the very mountain that had propelled him into the world spotlight as one of the strongest mountaineering guides in the world.

Years ago Mount Everest was considered a mountaineer’s mountain, where a climber need only worry most about avalanches, hidden crevasses and the potential to succumb to Altitude Mountain Sickness. But now, something far more hazardous and life-threatening exists on the world’s highest peak. Mount Everest is quickly becoming an EXTREMELY dangerous mountain because of overcrowding. In this video we'll learn just how Everest has become so dangerous in recent years, site some examples, then offer ways to make the mountain safer.

May 10, 1996: near the summit of Mount Everest a storm of unimaginable ferocity strikes, claiming the lives of eight climbers and leaving others stranded in a fight for survival. This is the story of one of the most controversial and tragic days in mountaineering history. Among the chaos and controversy, one name stands out: Anatoli Boukreev. His actions that day would spark a heated debate that rages on to this very day. Boukreev's name was brought into prominence in Jon Krakauer's book Into Thin Air, which sold over two million copies in the first couple of years after it was published. Krakauer was critical of Boukreev and his guiding style on the mountain, saying it was irresponsible behavior for a guide. Was Anatoli Boukreev a hero, or was he a villain? Let's find out.

1 People Are Dying to Reach 'Into The Wild' Bus 142, Chris McCandless' Escape from Reality and Death by Starvation in Alaska 25:25
The cult-like mystique of Bus 142 and the story of Chris McCandless is a magnet for millions around the world. In the heart of the mysterious Alaskan wilderness, where nature's beauty and brutality coexist, there once stood a relic, an accidental shrine—a dilapidated bus that had become a symbol of adventure, solitude, and ultimately tragedy. Bus 142, the infamous 'Magic Bus.' where the intrepid seeker of wisdom and inner peace Christopher McCandless spent 113 days in 1992 before succumbing to starvation, has become a beacon for pilgrims seeking inner wisdom and greater meaning in life. Ultimately, the Alaskan National Guard removed the bus in 2020 to stop the people from coming. But, still, they keep coming! Since the story was immortalized by Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air, there were no less than 15 rescues of people trying to find the bus and two unfortunate deaths. In this video* we details the CULT-LIKE mystique of Bus 142 - the Magic Bus - and Chris McCandless' life and draw parallels to our own lives.

1 George Mallory's Everest & Great Britain's Doomed 1924 Mission of Redemption with Author Wade Davis 43:04
The 100th Anniversary of the disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine on Mount Everest on 8 June 1924 with Wade Davis, author of Into the Silence: The Great War Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest. If you've ever put someone on a pedestal only to learn of the cracks in their veneer, this video will resonate. At the same time, Wade delves into the brilliance and authenticity of a generation lost in time. "I think he was very insecure," says Wade Davis, who continued "he wanted to be a writer but wasn't good enough....and, he was a real snob." Of course, that doesn't do justice to the full story of George Mallory's incredible legacy as well as the legacy of the British Everest expeditions of the 1920's. To mark the 100th anniversary of the disappearance of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine on Mount Everest on June 8, 1924 we welcome the world's authority on Mallory and the Great War, author of Into The Silence: The Great War, Mallory, and the Conquest of Everest Wade Davis. Wade is an anthropologist and Professor of Anthropology and the BC Leadership Chair in Cultures and Ecosystems at Risk at the University of British Columbia. Between 2000 and 2013 he served as Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society. Named by the NGS as one of the Explorers for the Millennium, he has been described as “a rare combination of scientist, scholar, poet and passionate defender of all of life’s diversity.” The conversation with Wade evolves around Mount Everest, exploring its historical significance, symbolism, and personal experiences of the exceptional climbers. He examines the impact of World War I on Mount Everest expeditions and highlights the legacy of the British Empire. Wade discusses the symbolic value of Mount Everest, including Sir Edmund Hillary's refusal to claim credit for reaching the summit first, as well as the lives and achievements of George Mallory and Oliver Wheeler, who was the man who found the gate to the East Rongbuk Glacier, which was the key to climbing Everest.

Mount Everest is like a ticking time b*mb or a kettle that's about to boil. With about 50 successful summits and the season half over, hundreds of climbers are waiting for weather to turn for the better in Base Camp. Climbers on summit day last week were hammered by hurricane force, bitter winds, driving them back down from near the Hillary Step. And what’s worse, the first death of the 2024 season was a high altitude worker, Lakpa Tenji Sherpa, 53, passed away on Makalu, as did Frenchman Johnny Saliba, 60. Both died of non-accident related reasons at high altitude. Much is not known about the situation leading to their passing. Family of Sherpa believe there is negligence on the part of the expedition company. On Everest, two Mongolian climbers went missing on 12 May. Usukhjargal Tsedendamba and Prevsuren Lkhagvajav last made radio contact with Base Camp as they left Camp 4 at 7:30 pm. They planned to reach the summit the following morning but never contacted Base Camp again. In this episode Angela Benevides, a high altitude mountaineeing and climbing journalist from Explorers Web talks about the significant changes on the mountain.

The Happiness Quotient

These days many people are often very cynical about Mount Everest. When they hear about it or think about it they think Mount Everest is a place with a pile of abandoned bodes, often with images of garbage and human waste and long lines of climbers on the summit ridge. But, there was a time when it was believed Everest was impossible to climb, the early explorers of Mount Everest literally walking off the map to places that were vast unexplored places. In this episode, Mick Conefrey, author of the book FALLEN: GEORGE MALLORY AND THE TRAGIC 1924 EVEREST EXPEDITION reveals more layers to the complex man called Galahad of Everest, George Mallory. Did he make it to the summit? Was his choice of Andrew 'Sandy" Irvine as his climbing partner his most fatal decision? And, Noel Odell....where were Mallory and Irvine when spotted them on the summit ridge, heading strong for the top. What was Mallory's tragic flaw? Could he have declined his invite to Everest in 1924 in the first place? Could he have chosen to climb with Noel Odell on June 8th? Mick Conefrey elaborates in this awesome interview.

*The mountaineering world was turned on its head on May 1, 1999 when the remains of George Mallory was discovered by Conrad Anker at about 26,750 feet or 8153 meters on the vast north face of Everest. When the news got out, it set the mountaineering world on fire. In this presentation about the discovery Thom Pollard gives an in-depth firsthand look at what took place on the day he visited the site with Andy Politz, on May 16, 1999. Included is an excerpt from a talk given in Sydney, Australia in November of 2019 to The Australian & New Zealand chapter of the Explorers Club. *Audio is from Everest Mystery channel on YouTube.

Near the summit of Mount Everest in the death zone on the ridge of the north face there is a shallow cave, known infamously to all who climb there as the location where in 1996 an Indian man named Tsewang Paljor lay down to rest and never got up again. That man is referred to as green boots. Almost exactly ten years later, on the morning of May 14, 2006 a small team of mountaineers climbing toward the summit were surprised to find another climber seated there, barely alive sitting next to green boots. It was one of the coldest nights of the season. The man in the cave was David Sharp, an English mountaineer who was on his third expedition to Everest. During the time David Sharp* was sitting in the cave many people passed by, thinking there was nothing they could do to help. News of this reached the outside world and soon an international furor erupted over the death of David Sharp. Even Sir Edmund Hillary weighed in, outraged at the incident. This is the story of David Sharp.

Interview with mountaineer Willi Steindl, who witnessed over 70 people stepping over Muhammed Hassan as he lay dying in the Death Zone on K2. The death of Mohammad Hassan on K2 has sent shockwaves through the mountaineering community. At 2:15Am on July 27 the Pakistani porter fell near the bottleneck at 8200 meters, found hanging upside down more than 5 meters below the path. Hassan was a porter with no climbing experience, having risked his life to earn the higher wages paid to high altitude porters, in order to support a sick mother and a family… He was woefully outfitted, lacking a down suit, or proper climbing equipment.
