So whats the real killer other than the cold? Is it that people freeze to death because they dont have enough heat to keep them warm for the duration? Or does it simply get too hard to breath up there and you slowly suffocate? Is it because the water freezes and you dehydrate and die cause theres no water to drink? Any good documentary on this?

The altitude. Their lungs are flabby plus sick and succumb to edema related illnesses. This is why you don't hear about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioners dying like that

This doc is great [media]

The weather can turn really ugly out of nowhere and that's a big part of the danger too

Been thinking about doing this , in 3 years.
A guide takes you to the base of the mountain on foot. You travel through villages and mountain trails. Been watching YouTube videos on what to expect.
But I’m not climbing that hoe.
