"Mountains don't kill people, they just sit there..." Once said Ed Viestursbut but about 185 people have died on that mountain and some of their bodies are still up there even from the first climb. They only found one of the dead bodies.In the 1996 disaster there are still eight bodies resting in the cold air in the himylayas.
