DESCRIPTION

Planes fly up to 40,000 feet in the air but they always avoid one particular place: the highest point on Earth - Mount Everest. Due to an ominous mix of 200 mp/h high-winds, shaky turbulence caused by 'Mountain waves', and a havoc-wreaking altitude, commercial airlines avoid Everest, and the entire Himalayan range like the plague. But could we fly above it if we wanted to? People have certainly done it before. What if we could parachute to the summit from above - that would save us months of strenuous hiking.
