1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,320
Speaker 1: Job mission with Jones and demand.

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: The Jonesy demand of arms for the pub test. And

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 2: this morning we're talking climbing Mount Everest as it passed

4
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:12,000
Speaker 2: the pub test. So after the story last night on

5
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:17,760
Speaker 2: ABC four corners, they're talking about corporate people climbing Mount

6
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:21,000
Speaker 2: Everest and now it's become a very big business, a

7
00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:21,840
Speaker 2: big business.

8
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:26,599
Speaker 3: The rest of itself brings ten thousand dollars for a

9
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:30,840
Speaker 3: head for format roughly, so that's about three hundred and

10
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 3: fifty four hundred climbers, you know, four million dollars straight

11
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 3: or three and a half four million dollars comes into

12
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 3: the nepolice you know, or tourism nopolice government.

13
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,519
Speaker 2: And it's become a big business, as he says, And

14
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 2: also when Edmund Hillary did it in nineteen fifty three,

15
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,199
Speaker 2: he was the only person up there. Now you can

16
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:49,479
Speaker 2: expect a queue of three hundred people waiting to summit

17
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 2: as they like.

18
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,400
Speaker 4: And the danger is that while you're waiting, you can

19
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 4: run out of oxygen. You can develop a whole lot

20
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,640
Speaker 4: of different conditions, and different kinds of companies are offering

21
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,160
Speaker 4: it now. Not all of them are as good as others,

22
00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,920
Speaker 4: and not all climb as it equal. There are two

23
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:06,880
Speaker 4: hundred bodies on the mountain. Two hundred bodies that have

24
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,840
Speaker 4: passed away. It's too expensive and dangerous to retrieve them.

25
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 4: They're buried in this in the ice.

26
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 2: Well, it was this Indian guy. He was on four

27
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:16,280
Speaker 2: Corners last night. He was saying he's a climber. He

28
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:19,480
Speaker 2: was up there with his wife. His wife passes away

29
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 2: on the mountain. He gets to the top, she doesn't

30
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,320
Speaker 2: make it. He has to leave her up there on

31
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 2: top of the mountains. That's a hell of a holiday,

32
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: isn't it. Hey, honey, let's go to Mount Everest.

33
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 4: Well, I've got one free ticket I can cash in

34
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 4: on the way home.

35
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 2: This is a one way flight home.

36
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 4: Well, that's what you have to understand when you climb.

37
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:41,640
Speaker 4: But a lot of people and what we aren't Those

38
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 4: people need to physically test themselves. This is a big thing.

39
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,720
Speaker 4: Is to physic we have we don't have those tribal

40
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 4: rights of passage anymore, to physically test ourselves. That's why

41
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,520
Speaker 4: a lot of people do this. But at what cost

42
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 4: climbing Mount Everest? Is it passed the pub test?

43
00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,160
Speaker 1: I definitely don't think it passes a pub test. You're

44
00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: getting too many tourists up there and inexperienced climates that

45
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:06,720
Speaker 1: are putting themselves in there, that are ruining that beautiful landscape.

46
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,480
Speaker 5: Look, I think a lot of people are over it

47
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,080
Speaker 5: chees and that's great for them, as long as they

48
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 5: realize if they have an accident, if they have almost

49
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 5: on the mountain, you know, they take your life in

50
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 5: their own hands. No one should be to go and

51
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,639
Speaker 5: retrieve them. I don't think so. There was a time

52
00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:24,440
Speaker 5: I wanted to do it, you know, just for the photo.

53
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 5: It's a look amazing, but you calculate the risks and

54
00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 5: the fact that you might die and don't think it's

55
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 5: worth it.

56
00:02:31,200 --> 00:02:33,919
Speaker 1: No, well, too hard to treat your life. Too short

57
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: and definitely chickol No thinks it's.

58
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,280
Speaker 2: Going to be cold. I kind of in Summit the

59
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 2: Summit restaurant.

60
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,040
Speaker 4: You left your wife behind me

61
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,320
Speaker 5: Jonesy and Amanda's Nation
