First, mountaineering is a sport from Europe, which started late and only rose in recent hundreds of years. Asians have lacked the spirit of adventure since ancient times and have not developed into modern sports adventure!
Second, Mount Qomolangma has been a sacred mountain of various sects in Tibet since ancient times! Even neighboring ethnic groups of other sects are forbidden to climb the holy mountain to blaspheme!
But Tibetans, especially Sherpas born and raised in the Himalayas, can climb Mount Everest and even reach the top. The Sherpas, who have lived in the high altitude areas around Mount Everest for generations, have evolved strong cardiopulmonary oxygen uptake and amazing muscle endurance. Almost all teams climbing Mount Everest in the world have to hire them as guides, porters and rescuers! They not only have to carry hundreds of kilograms of materials, but also make preparations for climbing, exploring, tethering and anchoring all the way. However, it takes almost 10 hours to climb Mount Everest, which is also a great challenge for Sherpas with extremely high talent. Leave scientific preparation and organize supply reasonably. Climbing 7500 meters is very difficult!
Third, before the establishment of modern media honor system, it is of no practical significance to climb Mount Everest. Conquer nature, especially climb the world's major peaks. Regardless of the country or the group, the interests are greater than the actual summit value. To some extent, early mountaineering also has strong political significance, and even has the function of declaring territorial possession!
Fourth: No body has ever been found. Among the nearly 100 corpses registered from the glacier cracks on Mount Everest. Most of them are modern explorers. So far, no bodies of Asians from 300 to 400 years ago have been found. This shows that almost no one has climbed Mount Everest before modern times!
Five: Before modern times, no topographic and climatic equipment was invented to detect altitude, pressure and wind speed, and no supply system was formed. Suicide at home is better than climbing mountains rashly, and you can leave a whole body to rest in peace! Tibetans around have the strength to climb mountains, but you give them a reason to want to go up! !
Before modern times, mountaineering in the world was mostly a folk production activity. Mainly grazing, hunting, herb gathering, mining and tourism! What do you think you can do at the top of Mount Everest?
