Mount Everest has a poop problem, as the Washington Post reported.
This season, porters have carried 28,000 pounds of human waste from Everest base camp to be dumped in pits at Gorak Shep, a frozen lake bed located 17,000 feet above sea level.
There you go

If you're a proper mountain climber and do it on your own, that can pass as a hobby.
Paying 10 grand to get a few experts to get you to the top of the world's largest mountain as a one off is not a hobby.

What happens when they get caught short whilst near the summit? They can’t exactly drop their thermals & curl one out in sub zero temperatures. Do they use the same type of systems as astronauts etc & have a clear out in their mountaineering gear?

"Why would I accept an approach from a man who can't move his car seat back?"
I mean, where do we go with this? Have we moved onto dogging now?

Bit different statistics on K2, about one person dies on the mountain for every four who reach the summit.
Now that IS a gamble

Most climbers never climb Everest.
Most climbers who DO climb Everest don't die doing it.
Most climbers don't die doing what they do.
Just like most long distance runners don't.

Touche, MIM.
ALL games involve a gamble of some kind. Some don't involve death.
I'll be off for a run later. Tomorrow, I will play badminton. I am not planning to climb to the top of the world and die.

A couple of years ago I stayed too long on a fossil beach and very almost got cut off by the tide. I had to scramble up a little cliffy thing like a monkey. I might have DROWNED. You know, if anyone's interested...

Backgammon involves throwing of a dice which relies on probability.
That makes it gambling.
I'm merely attempting to demonstrate to you that most hobbies have their element of risk and that can be what makes them enjoyable.
Some people like to gamble, some people like to climb up massive great hills. Live and let live.

Climbing Mount Everest may be dangerous, but it's not as dangerous as playing backgammon.
