It's for internet points. Nothing says "my life is better than yours" like wasting weeks and weeks climbing a shitty mountain

isn't K2 difficult?

but it probably doesn't have a fucking line

because it is difficult. Those posers only want their instagram photos on the summit

K2 is more difficult than Everest

good riddance

Why do you even care? Let those stupid human beings die because of their greed

it looks like a queue for extermination

K2 is a far harder climb. It just isn't the "tallest" so normies don't even know what it is. Everybody has heard of Everest.

If you posted a selfie of you on the peak of K2 to facebook most of your retarded friends would probably think you were just hiking in Colorado.

Imagine dying for instagram and kikebook likes
hahahaha

this nigga actually skied down from the k2 summit

Disappointing. They've turned climbing everest into as much of a brag as riding a roller coaster.

Can we get a virgin Everest vs Chad K2

They just climb to get photos for social media. No one cares about the challenge anymore.

The famous boomer trap?

Annapurna or nothing

i would die if i tried this

It isn't really the challenge it used to be. With modern gear, pre stocked base camps to stop at, and sherpas for hire to carry all your shit for you the difficulty is a fraction of what it used to be. Anybody in decent shape can summit Everest now if they have the cash to do the trip.

Rich faggots doing it for the social media likes. Hope they all freeze to death.

Noone has ever climbed K2 in the winter, bucket list?

It's still just as hard, but in a different way. Now the challenge lies in surviving the 2 hour queue on your way to the #topoftheworld selfie.
That ought to keep the death rate up.

It's not possible. Pretty sure Pakistani government don't even let you attempt it because of how many people die/get stranded and they have to go up in choppers to rescue them.

doubt

looks risky

The appeal is for middle class Boomers can brag to other Boomers about the time they climbed Everst. Its the ultimate Boomer sport because it doesnt require anything more than a basic fitness level but it holds a certain prestige for normies.
