I've always envisioned Mount Everest "summits" as solitary events. I don't care how slim the time is...this looks like a line at a rock concert.
I wouldn't risk it under those conditions, no matter how good a climber I was. Too many variables that are out of my control.
Too risky.
Even in the best of circumstances, you can only stay at that altitude for a limited amount of time.
Travelling above 8,000 feet altitude is a factor in cerebral hypoxia. This decrease of oxygen to the brain can cause dementia and brain damage, as well as other symptoms.
One study found that Mount Everest may be the highest an acclimatised human could go, but also found that climbers may suffer permanent neurological damage despite returning to lower altitudes.
Most die on the descent, falling or slipping after reaching the summit.
A logjam is created on the way to the summit, spending too mush time in the death zone, increasing the risk of hypoxia and edema.
On your way down, suffering from the effects of being the death zone too long, you can't think clearly, and you are exhausted, leading to accidental missteps.
It's not the fall that kills you.
It's the sudden stop.
