The oldest woman to climb Snowdon was Gwen Hardie, who climbed it at the age of 101 in 2019.
"The Tiger of Snows" is a nickname for Tenzing Norgay, the Sherpa mountaineer who, along with Sir Edmund Hillary, was one of the first two individuals known to reach the summit of Mount Everest in 1953. Tenzing Norgay's climbing skills, courage, and experience in the Himalayas earned him this title.

Because they contain alot of energy (in the sugars) that they may need.

What You Would Do
Scream, pray, worry, or wince for the coming impact (which is almost inevitable).
What You Should Do
Look for a tree to grab, or a ledge that might interrupt your fall. If you think you might land in water, rather than on rock, angle your body to enter feet first. Otherwise, go limp and don't try to stop when you hit. This could cause more injuries. Always have another competent adult with you when you are in rocky surroundings, and ideally a way (such as a satellite phone) to immediately call for help. One or more of a climbing party should have professional first aid training.
What A Science Student Might Do
Calculate the velocity of the moment right before you hit the ground given that the distance of the cliff to the ground is x, the initial velocity is zero, and the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/sec2.
On the lighter side
Always carry a small bunny with you, so it can blow on your face.
There are many stories of people who have been saved by a hare's breath.
You might want to see if you have any wings with you (chicken wings, buffalo wings, any kind of wings) and attach them to your back. This will likely not help.
If you're Dean Potter simply pull the cord on your base jumping pack and land safely on the ground.
It was first climbed by Michel-Gabriel Paccard and Jacques Balmat on August 8th 1786.
In the good old days, hemp ropes were the main ones used, and rarely, cotton. The modern and superior alternatives are such materials as Nylon, terylene, and polypropylene. Terylene has similar properties to nylon, but it has a lower amount of elastic stretch - thus you are brought up more sharply after a fall. Nylon has a suitable degree of elastic stretch and most climbers prefer it. [Rubber would be even more gentle, and finds use in the Bungy Jump industry.] Polypropylene comes in a range of formulations and is a comfortable rope for outdoors use, but its serious defect for cold weather use is that it may have a glass transition temperature not far below 0 deg C. This is the temperature at which the material turns brittle. This is considered by climbers to not be a good thing. Nowadays, the kernmantle style of rope construction is by far the most favoured. This has a stranded core in the rope, protected by a close braided outer wear layer. [You'll often see this style of rope used in yachting, because of its superior non kink characteristics.] This style of construction helps with protecting the fall resisting properties of the rope from casual abrasion.
He climbed Mount Everest in 1924, but died while doing so, so it is not known if he reached the summit or not. 75 years later his body was found over 2000 feet from the summit. It is not known whether he was going up or coming down when he died.
The highest mountain in the world, Mount Everest can be located on the border of Nepal and Tibet in the Himalayan mountains. It can be found at these coordinates 27°59′17″N 86°55′31″E 27°59′17″N 86°55′31″E
Your body cannot get enough oxygen to survive, so it slowly starts to close organs down, and you start to die.
Climbers use bottled oxygen on Mount Everest to help them breathe more easily because the higher you climb the less oxygen there is.
At the summit of Mount Everest there is approximately 33% of the oxygen that is available at sea level.

Many risk their lives climbing Mount Everest for the adrenaline rush or knowing that they are on the extreme edge of living or diying.
Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay were the first to reach the summit of Mount Everest, they did so on the 29th May 1953 at 11.30 in the morning. They both survived there time on the mountain and lived for many years after.
NO, Rakesh Sharma is the first man who represent India in Space and He did't any relation with Everst.
There are many, many reasons why people do dangerous things. Interestingly, one of the main reasons young people do risky things is because from about age 13 or so until about age 25 (like when your car insurance goes down) people are undergoing a period of growth in the part of the brain that controls risk avoidance and judgement. What this means is their ability to correctly assess the danger of an act (like rock climbing) is not working properly. Most people get through this stage of human development with the help of their parents and older relatives. On top of this, young people have lots of energy, so they are always looking for something to do. Add that to the fact that new adventures are the most fun, so you have people who are less able to judge the risk of what they want to do, plus the desire to get out and do something plus the desire to do something new and different and you have your answer.
