View Full Version : Sir Ranulph Fiennes
Is it just me, or has anyone else had the feeling that he just wants to cark it on Everest rather than a hospital bed.
The guy is a legend, but I think he's pushing it a bit this time.
Is he off up it again? :wtf:
He's half way up the fecker now, wearing most of a life support machine lol
I say good for him, most people his age are probably stuck in a retirement home half dead anyway!
damn right...
i'd rather go out doing something i like, that on a hospital bet etc
big :thumb: to him
Agreed, he's going to make a lot of money for charity at the same time, but i still have a suspicion he's not expecting to make it back down.
I can't imagine him wanting to die on a hospital bed tbh, die with your boots on and all that
What he said.
Its a weird thought but hes probably wanting to die " in action "
im lost here.... who is this guy?

He's already done it before. He's halfway up it again already.
Its worth noting that last time he did it, he had a massive heart attack half way up. Think he's had about 4 in total!
He also amputated his own frostbitten fingers using a hacksaw. He's hard as nails!

fair enough he amputated his own frost bitten fingers but he would'nt really feel it would he? (not at the time anyway) more to the point i would'nt be climbing a big f**k off mountain again knowing what happened before! atleast he wont get cold fingers this time!
One life...live it!
Wonder if he owns a freelander? lol
He's coming back down, exhaustion apparently.
