They were always smiling, always wisecracking, and always so optimistic. This is my strongest impression of the three climbers. They are all the top climbers in the world, which means they have suffered the most and have the best wisdom to judge the ever-changing circumstances of decision-making in mountaineering. There is no challenge for them to climb Mount Everest. The situation on Meru is more complicated, and no one has reached the top, so the honor and motivation are higher. But they chose to give up when they had the last 100 meters left in the first attempt. I don't know why, but it is certain that they did their best and should never continue to take risks.
After that, Lu Nan experienced a tragic skull fracture, but he performed a non-human exercise program on himself as soon as he recovered, and quickly regained his strength. The three of them got together again for a second attempt. Much better this time.
Another detail that impressed me is that a climber said that he only chooses to climb with his peers who he trusts and knows very well, which also shows how tenacious teamwork is required for such a difficult project.
If they are not allowed to climb the mountain, they will die, which is why they insist on this treacherous road.
