The 10 Most Dangerous Places To Explore In The Whole World
8. Mount Everest
Like Antarctica (later on this list), Mount Everest, located in Nepal, is not dangerous because of crime rates or terrorist attacks but because of the desolate terrain. The world's highest mountain draws many tourists and avid mountaineers each year, and each year, the mountain claims lives. The danger is the sheer height of the mountain; once climbers pass 8,000 feet, they enter the death zone, in which oxygen is so thin that it cannot sustain life. Only the most experienced climbers are advised to even attempt the climb, even then, with utmost caution.
