Should We Save Them? Around 800 people try to climb Mount Everest every year, but over 230 people have died on the mountain. In 1953, Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first people to reach the summit of Mount Everest. Since then, almost 4,000 other people have tried to do the same. Not everyone makes it to the peak though, but some people’s lives are saved by helicopters, rescue teams and other rescue services. People do not have the right to rescue services when they…

steeper than what the map said, and altitude made us slower than we had ever been. Incidents began occurring, avalanches threatening every step, whiteouts making us wait as routes hide for days, and fights exploding between us, other climbers and sherpas. Nonetheless, we pushed for the summit.

The wind is frigid. Campus bustles with life—faintly stiffened by the cold bite. It is just another wintery day at the University of Michigan: salted sidewalks, slush-covered surfaces, in all, a snowy scene. While the squirrels hibernate cozily in their dens, the geese gaggle about campus—Canadian geese, specifically. What started out as a coat made for arctic expeditions, Himalayan quests, and Yukon excursions, has now blossomed into one of winter’s biggest fashion trends. Because, oui,…

Important to acknowledge at the outset that Herzog is not a young man. He's the same age as Scorsese and note how long it's been since Scorsese settled on being an illustrator, a lifetime. Herzog as recently as a few years ago was still venturing out in search. Having said that, it's hard to fathom this was made by the same man who gave us Stroszek and Fitzcarraldo. In those, the place was real. The protagonists were actual lost souls, not actors feigning. The journey was about actually going…
