Darby Allin says he believes climbing Mount Everest is the "next rush" he's been searching for. The 30-year-old spoke to TMZ Sports recently and said he wants to continue to do things no wrestler has ever done before. This includes tackling the world's tallest mountain. "The thing I'm going to be doing next year that no wrestler's done before is climb Mount Everest," Allin said. "You heard it here first." He continued to say that he's thankful AEW gives him the freedom to do such things outside the ring. AEW gives me something that no other company can give me and that's the freedom to go crazy outside the ring, do my stuff. I'm telling your right now, no other company would let me skate with Tony Hawk or go crazy at Nitro Circus with [Travis] Pastrana or stuff like that." Over 300 people have died attempting to climb Mount Everest. From 1923 to 1999, over 14% of people who attempted the feat did not survive. However, with recent advancements in equipment and weather forecasting, the death rate has since declined to 1.2%. Should Allin decide to go through with climbing Everest next year, it would mean he would need to take time away from AEW. On average, the climb takes two months to complete. Before he has a chance to climb Everest, Allin has an opportunity to become AEW World Champion. He'll challenge MJF in a four-way match with Jungle Boy and Sammy Guevara at AEW Double or Nothing later this month. www.f4wonline.com/news/aew/aews-darby-allin-plans-to-climb-mount-everest-next-year

So he'd be away for months you say? Go for it, Darby.

Writing Darby out for two months or so seems simple enough given how guys manhandle him in regular matches
But given this is a year out, we probably would have to wait and see exactly how they'd do it
But it's a cool idea, hope he does it and succeeds

Does he already mountain climb?
If not, sounds like he'd be looking at a lot more than two months for the training.

Climbing Mt. Everest is kind of tainted now because all of these rich mofos pay a bunch of money to tour groups for the guides to do all of the work along the way and the guides still don’t get paid shit. Some of those guides have legit climbed Everest hundreds of times.

Does a Coffin Drop from the top. Shortly after, Sting jumps off too.

My question is, why travel all that way when you have a perfectly good Singh at home?

I wonder if Darby will use the power of apples to help him.

That's great but climbing season for regular people is usually May, so you're waiting until next year.
Also like the 10% odds of dying vs reaching the summit.

Okay I feel like an idiot because I'm only just learning that it takes on average 2 months to climb Everest.
I'm not even sure how long I thought it took but I definitely wouldn't have guessed quite that long.

I'm not even sure how long I thought it took but I definitely wouldn't have guessed quite that long. It's not two months of constant climbing though. It's because of acclimitising to the high altitudes. The climb has to be really slow or altitude sickness will kick in. Getting down is much quicker, even if you take the sensible route and don't just jump, lmao
