Can ordinary people climb Mount Everest?

No, climbing Mount Everest requires strict training. The physical quality of ordinary people can't meet the requirements. Moreover, there are regulations prohibiting individuals from entering the core area of Mount Everest.

The Everest Administration of Dingri County, Shigatse City, Tibet issued a notice saying that no unit or individual is allowed to travel in the core area above the Rongbu Temple in the Everest National Nature Reserve. In this regard, the relevant person in charge of the Everest Reserve said that this announcement was indeed issued, but it means that ordinary tourists are prohibited from going to the core area of the Everest Reserve, and mountaineering, scientific investigation and geological disaster research as stipulated by laws and regulations can still be carried out.

Ge Sang, deputy director of the Everest Authority, said that this time, it was mainly aimed at ordinary tourists. The original tourist base camp at an altitude of 5,200m was evacuated to the Rongbu Temple area at an altitude of 5150m. "The area above Rongbu Temple is the core area of Mount Qomolangma Nature Reserve." Ge Sang said that according to the Regulations on Nature Reserves, no unit or individual is allowed to enter the core area without approval.

Everest climbing record:

192 1 year, the British mountaineering team (captain Ke Hawad Barry) climbed Mount Everest for the first time from Tibet, China. They didn't cross the top of the northern depression, claiming that the height they reached was 6985 meters. Because of failure, they announced that this was a reconnaissance mountaineering activity.

1922, the second British Everest climbing team (captain Ji Bruce) still took the route of the northern slope of Tibet in China. They crossed the northern depression, but when they reached the height of 8225 meters, they failed because seven people died.

1924, the third British Everest climbing team (Captain F. Norton) was still climbing from the north slope of Mount Everest in China. Norton and others were forced to go down the mountain because of lack of oxygen when they reached 8572 meters below the "second step" on the north slope. Members George Mallory and Andrew Irvine insisted on moving on and never came back.
