This is one well documented docuseries that I found so riveting, I watched all episodes in one go.
The scenery was amazing, anyone would feel small in the majesty of the mountains. The Nepalese are religious and believe in the sanctity of the mountains and believe that places like these should be treated with respect, thus I was shocked to see in one of the earlier stills, 3 Israeli men undressed and showing their bums. That was so disrespectful and in poor taste. And then they showed their true colours when one of them broke a chest belonging to a deceased man and taking his money, and then making excuses for it and accusing the Nepalese of being violent! It was absolutely disgusting and inexcusable behaviour. It just left me shocked that people from a supposedly civilised country could, in a time of grief, steal from a deceased person who probably had to struggle to make a living and save that money.
And after watching the docuseries, I still don't understand why people want to climb mountains when it is extremely dangerous and can cause deaths, even under normal circumstances.
To the people of Nepal, i wish you all the best in coming out of the tragedy and in rebuilding your country and may it never happen again...and to all climbers, the Everest mountains are not a playground to be partying and having fun in - its a sacred place for the locals. Have some respect!
