  3. Tourists were warned and still went

    πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†πŸ™†

  4. It really doesn't matter if you're in the Himalayas or New York City. If the locals say "Don't go there." you should probably listen.

  5. lol & todays Darwin Award goes to…. India!!!… Again!
    India The world record holder!πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

  6. Got warned and still decided to go, ladies and gentlemen this is called natural selection.

  7. Were we go with the climate change reverse psychology pseudoscience MUMBO JUMBO indoctrination brainwash FOR the bamboozle operations of Geoengineering, I'm going to repeat GEOENGINEERING OPERATIONS,MAN MADE HEGELIAN DIALECTIC UNITED NATIONS OPERATIONS FOR DECADES AND ACCORDING TO THEIR KNOWLEDGE THEY WILL TOTALLY CONTROLS THE WORLD WIDE CLIMATE BY 2030 ,SAPERE AUDE!! and STOP being a televised zombie buying their AGENDA 2030 .

  8. Him a laying under the snow.

  9. For the first 75 sec of this I was wondering why NBC would give a F on dozens of Indian got burried by snow, so turns out this is to impress the audience that "Tibet is an entity of the same level as India", but Tibet is just a province of China now, and India is currently not.

  10. Guess when you get warned makes you a target when it happens. They did it to themselves. Can't feel sorry for that

  11. I feel bad for the locals and rescuers. They are the true innocents affected by this event. The tourists were warned and ignored and now the locals and rescuers have to deal with the consequences. The tourists should have to pay money back to these people.

  12. They were all warned and shouldnt be having all these resources wasted on saving them now.

  13. Avalanches are no joke. I live in the mountains. I know people who are still alive thanks to avalanche packs. While hiking πŸ₯Ύ in Himachal Pradesh, we heard what we thought was a waterfall. A tea stall owner pointed off in the distance to an avalanche, we were far away, and it was a loud roar. It was late April. Things are heating up. India needs more education on avalanches not just warnings ⚠️

  14. Died of stupidity. Bye.

  15. I just feel like..this isn't really news.

    But, at least it's not political bs

  16. When did sherpas start wearing Supreme? πŸ˜‚

  17. Natural selection at it's finest.

  18. There is two sides to Mount Everest, if you decide to continue the adventure you will need to sign a waiver that you will not be saved by the government.

  19. No mention of the nationalities of those buried? Another example of poor reporting.

  20. A dangerous place.

  21. Arrogant tourists. The leader said the rescue will continue tomorrow. Any surviving tourists will be deceased waiting overnight. You would be alive/uninjured if you followed directions.

  22. They were warned, they didn't care.
    I hope those who got rescued at least get to at least pay a fine.

  23. Seeing the avalanche at the beginning of the video really puts it in perspective. It's fortunate that we live in a time where so many events are recorded. Great reporting, as always!!

  24. So they get a warning and ignore it…. sounds about right!

  25. stupid is as stupid does

  26. They were told. This is their consequence.

  27. People pay for the privilege to die in the Himalayas.
    It must be an honor for them.

  28. Every
    Freaking
    Year. People know and know and know. Yet still go.

  29. Listen to the warning please πŸ™
    Otherwise RIP😒

  30. Stupid games, wins you stupid prizes….
    Unbelievable how much valuable resources & manpower (putting them now in vulnerable positions) to rescue these, selfish stupid ignorant people….

  31. How much do you tip the locals when they dig you out of snow?

  32. Ignore the officials and face the consequences πŸ˜” humans need to learn to respect the rules.

  33. When stupid tourists ignore warnings then cause a tax burden on the locals to be rescued they should be jailed and made to pay reparations to the people.
