A woman who died of altitude sickness while climbing Mount Everest took on the challenge to prove that 'vegans can do anything'.
Maria Strydom died on Saturday afternoon after having to turn back from the final leg of the expedition because she felt unwell.
She returned to Camp 4, the last camp before the mountain's summit, on Friday where she spent the night but died from lack of oxygen the following day.
The 34-year-old South African national taught at Monash University in Melbourne and was an experienced climber.
Her husband Robert Gropel is injured but, according to trip organisers, '100 per cent safe'.
Weeks before her death Dr Strydom told how she and her husband wanted to dispel the belief that vegans were 'weak' or 'malnourished' by taking on the climb.
'It seems that people have this warped idea of vegans being malnourished and weak.

Apart from climb mountains, it seems.
Fucking vegans polluting my country with their rotting kale carcasses
'By climbing the seven summits we want to prove that vegans can do anything and more,' she said in an interview with the university where she worked.
She also told of the dangers most climbers feared when taking on the mountain.
'We've all heard stories of frostbite and having to turn around from excessive waiting times due to inexperienced people blocking routes.
'This can lead to life threatening situations and death where Sherpas and other climbers have to risk their lives to attempt rescues.'

The husband was a fucking cuck.
He should have fucking slapped her as soon as she said "I'm a vegan", but instead he married her, let her do stupid shit and now she's fucking dead.
It's all his fucking fault.

This guy with no arms or legs made it to the top of Kilimanjaro but I'd still put money on him over a vegan.
>>74767141
lol
but Everest is dangerous, don't do that shit. And don't wear green boots.
>>74768066
It's easier for him because he expends less energy - has less weight, the calories meant for his arms and legs can be reserved.
Basically his lungs can hold in more oxygen now that his now nonexistent legs and arms no longer need it.
>>74767321
>This can lead to life threatening situations and death where Sherpas and other climbers have to risk their lives to attempt rescues
This is called exploitation of a resilient and hardy group of people for your vanity. I'm going to start shooting whities when I next hear the story of a Sherpa giving his life up for a vegan cunt.
>>74768133
Apparently green boots is missing nowadays, which kinda sucks. He may have been given a proper burial.

thats on you guys to some extent. that place should be managed like a national park, not a tourist trap.

Kilimanjaro is a purely endurance. There is no climbing. It's a very large hill that you walk up. The hardest part about it is being able to move slow enough.
Nolegs probably has an advantage.
>>74768471
Unless someone pays a lot of money to recover the body it's my understanding that " proper burial" they are consist of your body being thrown off the nearest cliff or into the closest crevasse.
I remember some American woman tied up on the slopes and her parents actually could afford to send Sherpas up but they couldn't risk bringing her body back down the mountain so they put her in a body bag and covered that with a flag.

>>74767141
Was she trying to prove that vegans can die?
I'm a vegeterian geologist (masters degree from USC) with asthma and I've summited all 10 of the worlds tallest mountains. i don't know how this could happen on everest- its actually the easiest of the "epic 10" to summit because sherpas do all the hard work. Its basically just a tourist thing these days. I saw some fat out of shape fucks going up there too.
>>74772851
>I saw some fat out of shape fucks going up there too.
but you never seen them return, have you
>>74772196
This.
Though Everest is pretty easy too, aside from the deathzone. The actual "climbing" on the mountain is pretty simple, especially when sherpas plot the route, stake the lines, and hold your hand and whisper little encouragements in your ear the whole way up. The only challenge is the altitude, but you could stick a normal person in an atmosphere chamber and simulate the top of Everest, and most people would die taking a shit in the air, humans aren't meant to exist at that level.
Tl,dr. Don't be impressed by someone who says they climbed "muh everest" It just means they like paying third worlders to cart their bloated ass up the kiddie slope so they can plant flags.
>>74772405
The price regulates that. Not a lot of people can afford to climb the Everest.
But yeah, the littered dead bodies are becoming too much. I forgot the name of the place where all dead bodies are, it looks all colorful because of the bright clothes they were wearing.
>>74767308
I'm real conflicted about you guys. On one hand, I hear the only people you dislike are Indians for doing currynigger stuff all the time. On the other, I don't know how you guys feel about Americans thanks to all the trustfund babies that go there to see a few brown people and mountains. What's the general consensus on cornfed Americans that just like beer, food and people?
>>74772196
>implying Mount Everest is a challenge anymore
Everest was ruined by normies and hipsters buddy, I'll go climb Meru instead
>>74773290
I would love to see a fat fuck do a no Sherpa climb.
And it's true, the lack of oxygen kills most of them. Sherpas apparently have genes that allows their muscles to function properly in low oxygen conditions.
>>74773479
Burgers are loudmouth, arrogant jackasses who whine about not having a McDonald's near the Durbar Square.
Once you get past that, you cunts are pretty cool. And the types you mention generally don't come here.
>>74773298
Rainbow valley? From what I understand very few of those bodies died where they currently rest. Most of them die up in the death zone, and the sherpas toss them off the side of the mountain because it's too difficult to bring them down. I'm not sure if any routes actually go through the rainbow valley, it's just an out of the way location where stupid tourists tend to land.
Not shitting on the nepalese, If you can get stupid westerners to pay you to carry them up a hill then you should wring every penny you can out of them. But your economy does seem to be built around exploiting morons, kinda like Las Vegas.
>>74772405
>doesn't become a literal shithole
funny thing is it is ALREADY a literal SHITHOLE
do you realize that for decades THOUSANDS of people every season climb up Everest?
looks almost like an escalator at a busy mall, group after group going up and down past each other on the slopes.
Where do you think they all piss and shit on the way up and down? (takes 3 or 4 days at least)
There are sure as hell no Port-A-Potties up there
they all drop trou and shit in the snow, male and female.
There are literally TONS of human feces frozen under the snowpack, ready to reveal if climate change ever warms it up enough
>>74773981
Nothing wrong with exploiting morons. It's a time honored tradition.
Also how is bringing the bodies down hard? can't you like, roll them down the slope or something? Put some skis on them?

At the altitude that people die at, the oxygen level makes a physically fit guy feel like he is 80. People dont have the energy to expend on dragging frozen carcasses down the mountain. Plus when they do die, they often get frozen TOO the mountain, permanently fused with the snow and rock, so breaking them free is a huge energy commitment.
Mostly it's just a money issue. Sherpas don't get paid too bring bodies down (usually) and climbers aren't about to waste their once in a lifetime summit attempt trying give a vegan popsicle a dignified burial. So they all just pass them by. The best a corpse can hope for is to get pitched over the side of the mountain, and then only if they aren't fused to the mountainside.

Now, every fucking movie, documentary and book on the Everest tell the same story.
That is, there are excellent bodies who fail to survive the trip.
Independent variables (such as age at time of ascent, genetics, and chance) play a bigger role in survival rate than everything else.
So now we have a Monash uni teacher that goes to Everest to prove vegans can do it.
But all evidence shows that even if she had made it, the variables I talked about would be more relevant than her diet.
Conclusion:
>She didn't die because vegan
>But anyway even if she succeeded she wouldn't have demonstrated anything about veganism

I am pretty sure this bullshit was introduced after Europeans made it a thing.
Beforehand no Sherpa healthy in his mind was going to the top of the Everest.
Because it was just a pointless thing to do. Sherpas had their folk to take care of. No time for silly adventures.

why do these people feel like they need to prove something?

>>74778001
You see what I've done in that post. ;)
Had she succeeded, she would have got the likes, but I hope there was more than mere veganism about her expedition... especially considering climbing as a vegan would prove little, given survival rates are mainly due to other stuff.
Btw aren't sherpas vegan already? Don't they go meat free on Everest at least?
>>74767141
Good try schlomo but we already know what she was doing in her research.
>>74778136
But anyway, aside from the occasional lulz about vegans... the reason we bully vegans is because they have a militant faith and want to change the world.
Consider there are countless peoples in the world (Sikh, Hindus, etc.) who are vegetarian (or vegan) and nobody doubts their cool simply because thet don't go around bragging how good vegetarians are.
The problem is not veganism for fucks sake. I met a Sikh dude who could easily relocate my jaw to the moon with a punch.
The problem is Westerners who take up veganism in the same way you would fight a crusade. They do not do it to take care of themsleves. They do it because they feel guilty about something. And guilt is the key to mental illness and radical political advocacy.

Look, if I know something redpilled about "cultures" is that they are full of shit that is just 50 y.o. but people within the culture will claim it is 500 y.o. because it's theirs and time give value.
Another thing is that sometimes there are things that do exist, but have little relevance until someone "rediscovers" them.
Example: Christians have a cult for tall places. They did in the middle ages -- esp. Gothic period. But from this to saying climbing mountains is part of the Italian religion is just bullshit. Italians living in the mountains have always climbed SOME mountians because of cattle and logging. They use to make shrines on top. But all the Alpine tourist craze is something no older than 19th Century, when people actually started to summit X and Y and put crosses on top of the highest peaks. This doesn't mean Montr Bianco it is part of Italian religious culture even if the occasional 20th Century climbers made it so.
In your post you have said that climbing Everest is a natural Budhist thing. I call this bullishit. Worshipping everest is 100% SHERPA, but going on top of it is something Europeans started to do.
So now you can tell yourself all the tales you like, but truth is that first time Europeans arrived in Nepal and said they wanted to top Everest, Sherpas' reaction was:
>WTF do they want to do that?
And this original reaction tells me more about your cultural roots than your 2016 4chan bullshit.

That's not the way it works, mate.
When you go camping you have to take shits at least 50 metres from water streams and sources otherwise your bacteria will pollute them over time.
So please don't come here and say that taking a crap on the Everest is environmentally neutral because it is not even fucking neutral when you take it in your toilet... Dealing with environments you want to preserve... well... requires much more than worship. It requires science.
ANYWAY SHE WASN'T TRUE VEGAN BECAUSE TRUE VEGANS DON'T PAY $ 50,000 TO TAKE SHITS ON MOUNT EVEREST. AT PRESENT TIME THERE IS NO TRUE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY WAY YOU CAN DO THAT.

This.
Now Nepali broad population will tell you stories about how concerned they are.
But truth is in Sherpa culture Everest was something you worshipped. Not something you climbed.
Now to climb it is Sherpa culture because it became so in the 50s-60s.
Sherpas have always been good climbers and respectful of the Mountains but were not undertaking climbs just for the sake of it... or at least not to the point of putting themselves to danger.
In fact, even now that they are world best climbers they still do it mostly to pay the bills.
Nepalese poster is not Sherpa. He is a Kathmandu shill who thinks he knows everything about Everest just because he was born in some Central Asian shithole.

This woman 100% died from lack of experience. On the summit push, she probably experienced a mild headache, but thought "Im a strong womyn! It's no big deal, I can push thru <3", and kept going. Any experienced mountain climber would know that this "little headache" is blood vessels in their brain bursting due to over exertion at altitude, and they would have pushed their ego aside, climbed back down, and lived to climb another day. But no, this woman who had climbed for 3 years, and had not climbed a mountain higher than 12 thousand, had to prove a point, and got killed by her own ego/stupidity. Classic woman move, top kek.

Vegans do not tend to be malnourished in any proper sense, in that the diet does not lend itself to any nutritional deficiencies. You probably won't be a top-tier bodybuilder without high absorption lean protein, but normies (especially women) can more than suffice on vegan protein
>>74785262
lol
these fucks needed some more protein n shit
>>74772583
Youre fucking an idiot. Protein is just amino acids. It depends how your body breaks down certain foods and is able to absorb the amino acids.
Some people, due to many reasons, can break down certain foods better than others, but to say "meat" is a better source of protein than powders is fucking retarded.
And if you dont want to do powders, eggs have like a 99% absorption rate for nutrients. They would probably be the best food item to get protein from.
>>74783183
I went to the base camp. I know more than you, Pajeet.

>>74785749
>Anybody can die on their way there.
so then what would a vegan have to prove by climbing the mountain? it wouldn't prove anything, right?
but they explicitly stated that's why they did it. right, leaf?
>>74785683
fuck. now that just pisses me off
where do these fucking retards even get this idea?
>grinding teeth in the back (plants)
>slicing teeth in the front (meat)
it's so obvious it's INSTINCTUAL.
>>74785680
Her husband had a heart attack and had to be carried down prior to her death. Another vegan make with them also died.
So that's 3 vegan climbers down. 2 dead, one injured.
It's not inexperience. That's probably a factor, but the lack of proper nutrition resulting from a vegan diet was the main culprit.
>>74785816
How am I a "fucking idiot" if I prefer eating meat over powder or eggs to get my protein? Do you not enjoy your burgers or something?
And talk to the muscle, bitch. At least I have some you 50 rolls of fat.
>>74767141
>Yfw they were killed to suppress healthy lifestyles but we eat it up because it is exactly what we want to hear
Human programming sure is predictable. Good goy, drink your milk, eat your steak and eggs. Stay strong so you won't die on mount Everest!
False flags are easy when it is what people want to hear.
>>74767141
Most people who have died on Everest were meat eaters, so there is little point to prove.
I know you all got a hard on whenever you see vegans fail, but this is more due to the fact that Mt. Everest is a very dangerous climb. You need to be incredibly fit and have extensive training and experience.
Still, this woman died trying to prove something stupid.
>>74785802
Then how come a male climber with her and her husband also died? He was also a vegan.
How come her husband had a heart attack prior and had to be carried down? He was also a vegan.
Stop beating around the bush, faggot. Vegan diets result in weaker bodies. Deal with it.
>>74767141
vegan -> iron deficiency -> lowered oxygen capacity -> die of lack of oxygen
>>74785748
Wow. Links for this shit?
I can only find the fact that the woman was a vegan in news articles, says nothing about the dutch guy who died or the husband's heart attack.
>>74784407
Agreed. I was stationed at Ft. Lewis when I did Rainier, and in killer shape. I had prepared for months, but it wasn't enough. I guess there's very little to do to prepare for altitude fucking your world up.
>>74785816
Meat is literally muscle fiber. You eat muscle fiber, to sustain your own muscle fiber.
It makes sense that eating what you're made out of is a better source for protein than eating eggs.
>>74785816
Different protein sources are composed of different amino acids and in different ratios. Meat is complete protein in that it contains all necessary amino acids. Something plants (most)don't have.

>Monash University in Melbourne
>>74786470
Gee, wonder how the cow made that muscle fiber? Your body has to completely break down proteins to amino acids to use them, all it cares about is that it has enough amino acids. Where they come from is literally a non-factor, provided the diets are otherwise equal (failing to account for increased protein demands in Veganism is a common mistake.

They may or may not *result in* weaker bodies. I'm thinking if you're rich enough to do it properly it won't, but if you're a poor fuck who gets talked into it you're probably in trouble.
At any rate it certainly *results from* defective minds.

It's literally because they can't be asked to put in the effort to do it right. Same with dieting to lose weight. Take that money meme argument to /fit/ and see how it holds up

Yeah, all protein is the same, just like all sugars are the same, right?
One less pasty anemic vegan to deal with I guess. How dumb though. Of all the things a vegan could do to prove "strength" she decided to pick what was most likely to kill her.

Time IS money anon.
You're talking about time educating yourself, time planning meals, time searching for relatively rare ingredients, time learning to cook special dishes, time actually spent cooking special dishes - a LOT of extra time and effort is involved. Rich people have many options here, from taking time to do it themselves to paying someone else to worry about it (and in reality there is much in between - they may pay a lot extra for special raw materials but still cook themselves) - poor people will have relatively few, and be much more likely to fuck it up as a result.
>>74787249
Neat. I'm not sure why my life style upsets you so much, but I drive a car and carry a gun daily. I'm a conservative that understands science, and that understanding led me to cut out items from my diet that harmed me.
You do you.
Everest is difficult even if you have someone dragging you up it.

i hate people who try and climb Mt Everest to virtue signal how self-actualised they are as individuals. After Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay summited there has been no point in climbing it.
>>74787357
I never said that, you goober. Not all proteins are equal, that's why high variety in diet is linked with increased life expectancy, regardless of whether or not that includes meat.
Too much of anything is bad for you. Even water will kill you if you drink too much.

Lol no.
FODMAP sugars when eaten in excess are bad for your gut and in sensitive ppl are the most common cause of IBS.
Typical case in which you think building bricks are the same, but they are not.
Even a healthy and not-sensitive person has constipation or diarrhoea if they swallow too many plums.
Because the body absorbs up to a certain threshold in one go and the rest of long-chan sugars (read: fructose, but also lactose e.g.) keep fermenting in your gut, absorbing water and producing air.

This holy shit, these creepy motherfuckers just leave those bodies there for fucking decades, they even pitch tents right fucking next to old corpses from the 1980s. They don't give a fuck about even trying to bring the corpses down, they really don't, they think it's fine. Degenerates.
If you forbade them from climbing that fucking mountain unless they bring down one corpse with each expedition I guarantee you they'd find a way to do it and half the corpses would be gone in just a few years.

The greatest Italian oncologists, Umberto Veronesi is a vegetarian, but he publicly claimed that vegan breastfeeding and even vegan transition from breast milk to food is bullshit and should be stopped because there is no way it can work.
Maybe it worked on a couple of cases, but it is virtually impossible on the majority of kids unless you wanna kill them.
He says upbringing must be AT LEAST lacto-ovo-vegetarian

Is it really? Most of the time it's not even like the corpse is deep in a crevice, it's like they're right there on the path or at a camp thing. And helicopters can go up there too, they don't need to land, you put a corpse in a body bag, hook it to a cable from a heli and off it goes.

Air is too thin for a helicopter's blades to generate enough lift. As a stunt a military helicopter was stripped down as much as possible and the best pilot was able to make it to the summit for a few seconds but that was with no reserve fuel and most of the safety equipment removed. Add in the unpredictable weather especially winds and helicopter use becomes not an option.
