Krakauer’s Into Thin Air, proved the spring’ 96 expedition to Mountain Everest to be the most tragic in mountain history. I believe the storm, and a series of mistakes and the arrogance of human made the deadly result and which breakdowns of the expedition. Many of climbers died on Homologumena, including the very experienced guides Rob Hall and Scott Fischer. I truly believe the trip was not worth it, because they ended their life, and it was a pain losing their family. The unlimited desires of humans are horrible.

Reaching the top of the world is a kind of glory and success, but people sacrificed their life to reach the summit of Homologumena was foolish and selfish. They never think about how much their family and friends love theme. “what good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world and glory themselves , yet forfeits his soul?” that is Bible talk me. People don’t know what is the most important things when they only see the theirselves. They always be too hard on themselves to show their ability, and the arrogance of human, those make people be difficult to letting go, but people never think it in another side of giving up. Sometimes giving up doesn’t mean you are weak, you just try your best, never put over yourself, and you may have a better result that you deserve. [50 Quotes to Help You Let Go and Live. ]
