With a height of more than eight thousand meters, Mount Everest not only attracts the attention of many explorers, but also mountaineers will come to Mount Everest to challenge the impossible. In 1921, the British mountaineering team successfully climbed Mount Everest. Since then, many adventurers and mountaineers have followed in the footsteps. However, very few people have successfully reached the summit of Mount Everest, and most people can only give up halfway.
In fact, the higher the altitude of the mountain, the thinner the air at the top of the mountain. If we list the air on the ground as 100%, then Mount Everest, which is more than eight kilometers above sea level, has only 30% oxygen in the air. In daily life, people need to breathe fresh air at all times to maintain the oxygen content in the body's blood. However, in the process of climbing the mountain, mountaineers need to face the environment where the air is very thin, food and warmth have also become a major challenge. Coupled with the wind and ice on the mountain, which reduces the temperature of the surrounding environment, people with perseverance need to overcome various problems to successfully reach the summit of Mount Everest.
So years later, many peculiar landscapes appeared on Mount Everest. These landscapes come from different countries, and they lost their lives in order to climb Everest. At an altitude of 8,500 meters above sea level, the "green boots" become a special landscape. One step forward, he can become one of the very few people who have successfully climbed Mount Everest, but he has left his life at 8500 meters forever. The reason why people call the body "green boots" is because the deceased wore a pair of fluorescent green hiking boots on his feet.
As early as 1996, he had already embarked on a difficult mountaineering journey with a professional mountaineering team. Although he has a very comprehensive mountaineering equipment, he has not completed the climbing process. Many people see the corpse of the "green boots" and they can't do anything about it, after all, it takes energy and time for people to transport the body down the mountain.
Of course, the corpses on Everest are certainly not only "green boots", many people have been buried here forever, including the famous Sleeping Beauty. Sleeping Beauty's real name is Frances, although she has completed the entire process of climbing the mountain. But because the ambient temperature is too low, it is impossible to maintain the normal temperature of the human body, and eventually fell.
And people call it Sleeping Beauty because the deceased put her hands on her chest and the body took on a straight look, as if she had not actually passed away, but had fallen asleep on Mount Everest. If there are many bodies of mountaineers and adventurers on Mount Everest, why don't their families bring them home?
When we come to a relatively high altitude, we are prone to altitude sickness. In addition to the flushing of the face, difficulty breathing is also a manifestation of altitude sickness. The air on the plateau is very thin and does not reach the oxygen content of the air in the plains, and even if the family of the deceased has learned the specific information of the deceased, they will not be able to do anything.
On the one hand, because the air on Marpin is very thin, it is difficult for anyone to completely overcome the situation of too low oxygen. On the other hand, because the high altitude of the mountain range is accompanied by the low ambient temperature, even if people have done a good job of keeping warm, it is not possible to rule out the probability of the rescue personnel being frozen to death.
In general, most adventurers and mountaineers never tell their loved ones where they are. Since mountaineers and adventurous parents do not get in touch with their families at the time, even if the family has the idea of looking for them, the family has no way to obtain information about the mountaineer and related corpses. Therefore, most of the bodies belong to the deceased who cannot be identified, and when people cannot determine the specific identity of the deceased, it is naturally impossible to carry out a series of rescue activities. So "Green Boots" stayed there for 25 years, "Sleeping Beauty" for 23 years and no one touched, they all merged with Everest.
When we are doing some more dangerous things, we should be fully prepared to protect our personal lives. Life is only once, and it is impossible to start again, let alone go back. Climbing Mount Mar is a proud and dangerous thing, and many mountaineers are fully prepared, but they have not been able to realize their dreams.
When you are faced with the problems of thin air, low ambient temperature and lack of food, mountain climbing is no longer a very simple thing. In addition, people's time and energy are very limited, even if everyone is ready to climb the mountain, but the physical strength of some people is completely unable to support the climbing of Mount Ma. Therefore, always pay attention to the personal physical condition, do not do things that are contrary to the personal physical condition, we can get a better lifestyle.
