I often imagine myself doing Mountain climbing, although it is highly risky and requires a lot of safety precautions, it could be fatal as well as being an interesting adventure both as a sport and as a recreational activity.
As a recreation, you must not go beyond your capacity, but as a sport, that's a professional level and mountaineers must meet some criteria to be eligible for a contest, after all, safety measures are met and a fully healthy physical and emotional state of mind is ascertained.
The fact is, it's one of those popular Extreme sports out there and I'll very much like to try it someday irrespective of how scary this image looks to some persons with a phobia for heights. But you can see the two female mountaineers feeling or relaxed they seem to be too tired and needed a nap, they had a mountain makeshift bed fixed by the cliff, but would you agree to resolve to that no matter how tired and exhausted you are? Would you do it for a certain amount?
