[quote]A Saudi woman has made history by reaching the summit of the world's highest mountain.
Raha Moharrak, 25, not only became the first Saudi woman to attempt the climb but also the youngest Arab to make it to the top of Everest.
She is part of a four-person expedition that also includes the first Qatari man and the first Palestinian man attempting to reach the summit.
"I really don't care about being the first," she is quoted as saying. "So long as it inspires someone else to be second."[/quote]

God damn. If that'd been me, the only thing I'd be able to think of would be a mix of "WOO" and "HO YEA."

I would be screaming from the top "FUCK ALL OF YOU, I DID IT. I FUCKING DID IT. COME AT ME BRO"
At least she didn't break the Sharia law by playing a stringed instrument at the top.
Water boils at the top of Everest at about 160F rather than 212F. That's cooler than most video cards under load. Fun Fact!

No you wouldn't.

Hence why climbers and peoples who live at high altitudes use pressure cookers.
Wonder what the government and all the other sexist bigots in Saudi Arabia think of this :v:

she's [I]UNCOVERED[/I]
SCANDALOUS FILTH
If the mountain will not come to Muhammad...
She's not wearing a burka.
STONE HER TO DEATH!

No, you'd be saying "y-yay i-i d-d-did it"

I'd be dead a mile from base camp, so at least it's better than that.
