- the weather -on Everest the temperature never rises above freezing. in winter the temperature averages at 36 degrees C and in summer averaging at 19 degrees C
- the possibility of malfunction – A Swiss attempt to climb Everest in 1952 failed by just 250 meters, the cause malfunctioning oxygen canisters.
- ice falls -The most dangerous area of the mountain is often considered to be the Khumbu Ice Fall, which is particularly dangerous due to the unpredictable movement of the ice falls.
- DEATH!!! – the worst year on Everest, for deaths was 1996 when 15 climbers died and 9 on a single expedition. but hundreds of corpses still liter the mountain.
