Apparently the first man to reach the peak of Mt. Everest died this past week. It's always a sad thing to loose someone who did something so historic.

((OOC: I just found out today T~T Sadness...))

It's not easy. There's very, very little oxygen when you get that high. Plus it's very cold, and the weather can be severe

Yeah. Apparently he did a lot of work to help people, too. He seems like he was a good man.

Always a good thing when people 'elp other people, aye. I doubt I could fly o'er a mountain, much less climb it.

I've had to climb a couple of smaller mountains for recon missions and such, but definitely nothing as high as Everest.
