1
00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 1: Got room has got the room. Here is the curtain

2
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: room floor. That's a sign I prepared. You don't know

3
00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:19,279
Speaker 1: what it's called.

4
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 2: It's a called cutting room floor.

5
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:26,200
Speaker 1: I heard it. You know. Selfies a really interesting thing.

6
00:00:26,440 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 3: I look at a lot of things online about people

7
00:00:28,440 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 3: taking selfies and then people dying because they're taking selfies?

8
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:35,680
Speaker 3: Does anyone really care? It's about everyone's become like a

9
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:38,000
Speaker 3: content provider. You and I have been doing this for

10
00:00:38,040 --> 00:00:40,280
Speaker 3: a long time and we've been content providers.

11
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 2: But it's not even about being an outward content provider

12
00:00:42,840 --> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 2: and telling other people your thoughts. It's as if a

13
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:48,880
Speaker 2: moment hasn't happened and as other people see you having

14
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:53,159
Speaker 2: that moment. True, everything has to be chronicled. Living the

15
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:55,080
Speaker 2: moment on its own doesn't seem to be enough.

16
00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:58,360
Speaker 3: But when Sir Edmund Hinders Hillary walked to the top

17
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,800
Speaker 3: of Mount Everest while they climbed, Hees walk up with Tensy.

18
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: With tens he said, excuse me? Do I look fat?

19
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 1: While if you take a selfie of me?

20
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,600
Speaker 2: But that's the different thing, isn't it. You're taking a

21
00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:11,760
Speaker 2: photo of him? He Intensig were the only ones there,

22
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 2: and a shopping trolley and some Martians. But that's how

23
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,600
Speaker 2: I remember it. Now, have you seen the footage of

24
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,920
Speaker 2: when people get to the top, they have their photo

25
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 2: taken at the summit. You look back down and there's

26
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:27,000
Speaker 2: a that fills me with horror. Hundreds of people waiting

27
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 2: on this cliff in the freezing cold to get and

28
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 2: get their photo taken at the summit. And to get

29
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: to the summit as well as having your photo taken.

30
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,040
Speaker 2: They're two separate things. But the idea of being on

31
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 2: the side of a cliff, it's freezing cold, you've got

32
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:44,600
Speaker 2: low visibility, the light's about to change, low oxygen, low oxygen.

33
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 2: If you don't summit by a certain time, you have

34
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,000
Speaker 2: to come back down. So the pressure on get up there,

35
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 2: get your photo, get out. And these days they have

36
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 2: to carry pooh bags the mount Everest. The people who

37
00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,200
Speaker 2: all the climbers taken on man Everest have been told

38
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,280
Speaker 2: by the Nepalese government they have to pick up their

39
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: own pooh. So climbers are given two odorless excrement bags

40
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: before setting foot on this mountain and they have to

41
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:09,799
Speaker 2: come back down with them.

42
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 1: Oh God, and people, is it true? When people go

43
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 1: up there? I had the story about a guy and

44
00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:16,320
Speaker 1: his wife.

45
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 3: They went up there, the wife died in the queue,

46
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:21,839
Speaker 3: and then the guy had to come back and leave

47
00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 3: the wife up there.

48
00:02:22,600 --> 00:02:24,880
Speaker 2: There's body is still strewn along the mountain side. That's

49
00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 2: the risk you take in doing it. My brother who's

50
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,840
Speaker 2: done Kokoda, his knees are completely staffed. He wants to

51
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 2: He said he'd love to go to base camp. I

52
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,000
Speaker 2: can't think of anything else. I've been to the Himalayas.

53
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:37,079
Speaker 2: But his stories with beyond two thousand not on sound

54
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 2: like a tool. But we chop it in in no

55
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:39,919
Speaker 2: way I'm hiking up that thing.

56
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 1: Yeah you're smart, Yeah, I'm smart. At that base camp?

57
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,119
Speaker 1: What's that's pretty high? Still isn't And you can cart

58
00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:46,960
Speaker 1: get a base camp.

59
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: You can can't get anywhere along there. You can get

60
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: altitude sickness, you know, at sea level. So this is

61
00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 2: show made that up. I don't know if that's true.

62
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:57,160
Speaker 2: But some people get it. You can, but some people

63
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 2: get altitude sickness at the top, some get it at camp,

64
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 2: some get it the minute you arrive in the country.

65
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,440
Speaker 1: Matter of fact, I got it now.

66
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 3: The reason I'm talking about this there's a story that

67
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,639
Speaker 3: we didn't talk about on the show, and I wish

68
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: we did. Two tourists have thrown punches over trying to

69
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,079
Speaker 3: get the perfect selfie position when they're at the top

70
00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 3: of Mount Everyone.

71
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 2: I'm surprised this happened. Hasn't happened.

72
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: So with all of this, with the big queue and

73
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:23,960
Speaker 1: the pooh bags and the lack of.

74
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:27,720
Speaker 2: Oxygen, the day ending quick, hurry up everyone.

75
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,400
Speaker 3: So you get to the top and then they're having

76
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,560
Speaker 3: a punch on because rightly, who was here first? You know,

77
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 3: I want to get the better hurry I may get

78
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 3: your picture and the other person's going veggie fingers up

79
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:39,920
Speaker 3: the top.

80
00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 2: I look, if it was me, I'd be saying to

81
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:45,200
Speaker 2: my husband, no, I don't like that one. Take another

82
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,839
Speaker 2: take No, I look fat, take another one. Take another one.

83
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 3: These people, these people, these people believe to be Chinese,

84
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:55,160
Speaker 3: simultaneously converged on the viewing platforms.

85
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,760
Speaker 1: I think a little viewing platform thing there as well.

86
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,520
Speaker 2: Well, this is the first time there's so many people

87
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 2: there now, because so they've opened the Tibetan side, the

88
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 2: first time I've opened that since pandemic times. And so

89
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 2: that's why there's so many more people to say, have

90
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,040
Speaker 2: come in from the other side.

91
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,440
Speaker 1: Is Tibet Is that the Tibetan side is that easier?

92
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 2: I don't know. Gee, they swing a punch at you

93
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:14,360
Speaker 2: if you said so.

94
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, Well, because it's like here in Australia Mount Kosiosco.

95
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: If you go from the New South Wales side as

96
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 1: opposed to the Victorian.

97
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 3: Site, it's easier get of Mount Kosiosco than the other side,

98
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 3: which makes me wonder if you know, perhaps Edmund Hillary

99
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,719
Speaker 3: should have said, you know, I might go the Tibetan side.

100
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,040
Speaker 1: There's a travelator that goes up there.

101
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: There's a gift shop tensing don't can't get a.

102
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 3: Fridge magnet, and they're all made in shine, so it's

103
00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 3: quite easy to get.

104
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,239
Speaker 2: Well, imagine that you may go to all that effort.

105
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,839
Speaker 2: You can see why tempers flare. Who'd have the energy

106
00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: to throw a punch? I don't know. But women were

107
00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 2: joining in too. People started. Two men started punching each

108
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 2: other as they roll around on the platform at the top,

109
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,160
Speaker 2: and then there's other woman tries to pull them apart

110
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:04,040
Speaker 2: and she starts kicking. Please had to intervene. Imagine please, hey, guys,

111
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 2: there's a call from the top of the mountain. Can

112
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 2: you go up and sort that out, so the police

113
00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,120
Speaker 2: had to go up. They put down their donuts and.

114
00:05:09,040 --> 00:05:11,680
Speaker 1: Get up there and two of girls there as well.

115
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,159
Speaker 2: Oh how exhausting. But I hope they put their poo

116
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:16,560
Speaker 2: in a bag.

117
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 1: Heay kids, that's it for today. Come back to mar

118
00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:23,240
Speaker 1: farmar of Cholsey and room for
