To overmaster Everest is a beautiful dream. And this dream is for sale.In March, 1996 19 alpinists-amateurs arrive to Nepal, for 65 000 dollars to buy to itself a ticket on the top of the world.Their route plans ideally, every client is insured by a professional explorer, and a weather promises a comfort ascent. However..A final say is always after a mountain. There, on height of 8 kilometres above a sea level, in the rarefied air their brain will lose millions of cages, a body treacherously will become weak and even experience will begin to make one rock mistake after other.Someone will survive, but forever will remain with sense of guilt, and someone to pay off for a dream and ambitions own life.The most frightful tragedy is in history of Everest - from the first person.Before a book went out under the name "In the rarefied air".
