Introduction

• I believe that sherpas get no respect. I think
  that they should be treated like other climbers.

Main Point 1

• Sherpas get no publicity or credit for summiting
  Everest

• Fact Climbers spend more money on a piece of
  gear then on a human
• Fact Sherpas get in barley any videos or books.
• Fact Sherpas dont even get a pat on the back
  if summited.

  out sherpas.

  own gear.

Main Point 3

• Sherpas do most of the work.

8
Support for point 3

• Fact Sherpas fix and check all the ropes they
  will climb on.
• Fact Sherpas carry all the heavy equipment.
• Fact Sherpas put up with all the mental abuse
  from the climbers

• So the next time you spend money on gear you
  think to yourself can it, fix stuff, keep you
  company and help you to the top. You should spend
  more money on sherpas
