Kitne brave hote hai na yeh log? I admire their physical and mental strength to embrace such hardships... pata nahin kaise log hoge yeh.
Yes, very true. Totally fearless.

No I didn't read the book (came across it online while ascertaining that Rob Hall wasn't the guy in your quiz picture) but saw a tv movie of the misadventure, which is why Hall stuck in my mind.
OK. The book I was talking about is 'Into Thin Air'... not too well written, I thought, but quite thrilling. A really amazing story about this chap, Boukreev in it... after the storm that killed several people, and while everybody else collapsed, he went out to search for them. He climbed without oxygen, and was later accused by several of the expedition members of not really doing his duty well... a really remarkable man, nevertheless.

So anyways Rom ji, then are you a mountaineer too? Maybe a budding one? An accomplished one?? Wow that would be just great. Aap ko kyon interest hain is subject mein?
Mountaineer!
After talking of these chaps, it'd be a joke! Just like hills, and walking in the mountains. That's all. Interest isliye hei because theise tales are so gripping, and remind me that the life away from cities and towns can be really exhilerating!
