But you expect A MAN WITH NO LEGS, no training and limited rescue gear to pull a frozen near-dead body THREE miles down a 30 degree ice slope?

No, but I expect 39 men with two legs and enough stamina to climb Mount Everest to have more concern for the life of another climber than their own personal glory in reaching a peak that appears to exist for no other purpose than to attract suicidal idiots with oversized egos and underdeveloped moral compasses.

The text said that some FORTY others passed this man while he died.

Either traffic is tight as a shopping mall on Mt Everest or this man took a considerable amount of time to die, AND SOMEONE was counting folks who passed him by.

PRESUMABLY not ever one of those FORTY FOLKS were lacking legs.

It is OBVIOUS that all FORTY had earlier received CARDIECTOMIES!

Go read post #167.

The man with no legs was called a "a self-absorbed, nihlistic A-hole!" for not carrying another man down the tallest mountain on earth.
