About this episode
Over 200 climbers have lost their lives attempting to summit Mount Everest. The majority of the dead are still on the mountain, frozen in time, their bodies serving as both landmarks for aspiring hikers, and a solemn reminder of what can happen during a climb gone wrong. We investigate the dangers of climbing Everest, how human remains are brought down from the mountain, the tragic history of the Sherpa, and more.
