I’d suggest listening to any podcasts he did about it instead. Seemed like they skipped past a lot of it. They left out a lot of the stuff he said about seeing Farrell again. Understandable with it being an hour but a lot of good stuff overlooked.

I know the lad. Nice fella but think he is doing too many of these challenges. This wasn't a one off. He has a wife and baby to think about. Some of these ideas are ridiculously life threatening, He wanted to climb Everest a few years ago and think he may have started it but got covid shortly after going up some of the mountain.

Everest isn’t a particularly technically challenging climb as long as you are fit which is why rich tourists attempt it

I’m assuming you’re just talking about the lads that hit the base camp etc

Yer most people can get to base camp which is around 5200 mts . It takes 30 days if you walk from the start up and down ,the first ten days you go up and down hills so most fly to ( something like leh but it's not ) which takes the first ten days off it but you arrive at 3000 so in the death zone . No didn't do Everest bases camp spoke to a good crew who did I and Mrs Claret did couple of other base camps on two different trips and got up to 4200 which was the top of the peak on Lantang mountain wearing runners .

No to get to the top you dont really need to be climber - as it doesnt require much technical climbing ability you just need plenty of £££££££££££££££, and be pretty fit other lower mountains eg K2 require much more technical climbing ability and isnt called the widowmaker for nothing

probably should have added 'much of a climber' Yes you need to have some mountainerring experience but its not a technical difficult climb , there are ladders ropes etc on the route , if you have prepared right and gauge the weather right its pretty straightforward
