Climbing a mountain is something that only needs to be done during war and only the inhabitants do
swimming is more rewarding and exhilarating

I'd love to hike some of the approach trails to these mountains but I think I would have a panic attack and die on the foot bridges.

Lol yeah those would give me that same feeling I get when I crept up close to the edge of the Grand Canyon. Literally took my breath away and made my heart skip a beat or two.

I was under the impression that these guide companies now tell the Sherpas that if it's between the clients life and yours you choose yours. Don't become another victim.

Joking aside, yes, I do feel for the poor sherpas, cannabinated.
On one hand they can make more income than they ever have (which isn't saying much obviously), but in return they go out there and face death every single day they're on those mountains. All so some other guy can get the credit. The sherpas are unquestionably superior to the vast majority of mountain climbers they accompany -- they do the dirty work and then when it's time for the accolades and the showers of praise that some of these elite climbers receive, the sherpas, rarely if ever get any of it. Instead often they are completely ignored as if they weren't even there.
Honestly, although climbing in the Himalayas fascinates me to no end, yes, a lot of these climbers are narcissistic glory hungry douche bags who would step over a dozen dying sherpas if it meant bagging their next giant mountain on their list. The stories of a lot of these guys are infamous. I don't want to blanket all of them with stereotypes but yes more of them seem to have poor reputations than not. At least from everything I've read.
And what Everest has turned into in recent years is disgusting.

I think they have tried to improve in that area, and it would be sickening if they didn't (or don't), but depending on the client and the pay I still think most of them probably feel immense pressure to get clients up (and down) successfully due to the money they get in return. I'm reality the pay may not be that much but to them it's a lot and it's faster money than they'd make doing anything else, and probably by far.

Just reading some of the mountaineering conquests of the past that at the time were considered epic achievements, it's pretty amazing to hear that in many cases the "star" climber had to be pretty much dragged up the mountain, and then dragged back off of it. And then they'd (in some cases) go write a best selling book about their conquest and not mention any of the sherpas. Not once.
