Two things:

1. stop climbing Everest now, I can see why many cultures have Holy Mountains that you either honour in the ascent or not go up at all.

2. The use of rich adventurers as unwitting guinea pigs to try out new technologies for our future in Space excites me, the things their corpses will teach the rest of us! And we're also spared their boring stories about climbing Everest!
