Some nutty Dutch adrenaline junkie has decided to climb Mt Everest in shorts. While the article says he'll dress warmly at night when he sleeps, and during tea (good to know he's not a complete barbarian), otherwise, his climbing attire will consist of shorts, boots, hat, gloves.

He claims to be able to regulate his skin temperature internally, and resist frostbite. For the sake of the 'boys', I hope he's right. Talk about your major shrinkage!

For his sake, I hope so, Hogjack.

The lengths people will go to for a 'rush' ...

LOL......the moron best turn up the t-stat......
 
What the fuck is wrong with some people? I get enough adrenaline just trying to pay my bills every month and raise two kids... :rolleyes:
 
I don't know CBBW. Maybe one night him and his buddies were sittin around drinkin and doin drugs, and the little guy over in the corner said, "Dudes...ya know what'd be a REAL rush?"

I've been trying to imagine how the subject of -30C in shorts might ever come up in a conversation, much less the conversation ending in....."When do we leave!! I can't wait to do this!!"

From now on my standard question will be: This won't make me want to climb Everest in shorts when it's -30C, will it? Cause I readily admit, I ain't woman enough!

Or even fully clothed for that matter!
