What is up SharkNation!
On this episode of the SharkPod - Luke and Mark meet with Paul Devaney of Irish 7 Summits.
The 7 summits challenge involves climbing the highest mountain peak on all 7 continents.
Paul and his group of amateur mountaineers have managed to climb 6 of 7, with only one remaining - Mount Everest.
During the chat they cover:
1. How Paul, having no background in mountaineering growing up, got involved with such arduous challenge.
2. How Paul started to tick off the various climbs and a discussion on which ones were the most challenging and where someone should start if they would like to take in this challenge for themselves.
3. They discuss what is involved in getting ready for these expeditions and the sacrifices that need to be made when chasing this goal.
4. They talk about Paul's first attempt at climbing Everest and how that ended in disaster (avalanche).
5. How his second attempt at climbing Everest also ended in disaster (earthquake) and the rescue that he was involved in during the aftermath.
6. They talk about going back to Everest, Paul's final peak of the 7 summit challenge, and how he will prepare when he goes back.
And much more.
