I missed the first one so I will torrent the whole series and watch it then.
I really, really, really want to go back to Base Camp.

I would love to do the summit but I don't think I would be allowed due to my epilepsy (even though this has been stable for a while). I went to stage one base camp in 2001 - 21,000 feet I think. Probably the best experience of my life.

I would kill to be able to stand on top of the world just once.

Not the same. There is also matter of the US$60,000 it would cost to summit Everest.

A lot of it is medical insurance. The experienced leader of each attempt (or guide or whatever they are called) also get about $10k - danger money I guess.
