So, are sea levels riding, by comparison?

That's three feet taller than the last official measurement done by the Indian government back in the 1950s
In all honesty, that's some pretty awesome work by the Indian government to be that close in the 1950's, compared to all the technology available now.

And still we will have people saying global warming isn’t real.

Indians feet are probably getting smaller. A lot of Indians also probably died in the study....

more like they just stacked some dead bodies on top

Well, I was going to climb it, but that extra 3 feet is just too much.
Posted on 12/8/20 at 10:30 am to RollTide1987
Did all the dead bodies add to the height?
Posted on 12/8/20 at 10:53 am to RollTide1987
Was Dominion in charge of the tally?

How did they measure its height in the 50s?
I know we did some basic shite like this in Physics but we were calculating heights of shite like our HS stadium pressbox or a water tower 300 yards away.

There is absolutely no way I would climb Everest again (at least by the Sol Col route while technically more difficult I think the North Ridge is safer today for an experienced mountaineer) unless they cut the number of permits by 60% or more. The lines on summit days are ridiculous now, paying $50k to slowly die in an amusement park ride line is beginning to stretch sanity even for someone that completely understands the quest.

That's just 3 more feet for shitbirds to pile their garbage on.
