This week I take a look at a sad and perhaps little known fact: the dead bodies of climbers that remain on Mount Everest. The highest mountain in the world is unsurprisingly very dangerous, and when climbers perish, protocol is to leave their bodies behind, as it's too dangerous to retrieve them. This episode highlights some of the better-known climbers who died on Everest, and whose bodies were never retrieved.
