Charlotte Fox, 61, was a survivor of the horrible blizzard that fell on Mt. Everest as her team, Mountain Madness, was descending from the summit in 1996.
There were fatalities.
She survives that, and in a rotten bit of irony she dies from a fall while descending a simple staircase.
RIP.
If there were just stair control laws…
That’s just terrible!
[See, Alannis? THAT’S ironic.]
“She was married to Reese Martin, who was killed in a paragliding accident in 2004.“
I want to say something funny, but I probably shouldn’t.
What do you say?
Her last 22-years were a gift.
The same thing happened to the pilot of the Memphis Belle in 2004.
The pilot of the famous B-17, Bob Morgan, endured many dangerous missions over Germany dodging fighter planes and flak only to die by having a fall and breaking his neck.
Tragic and ironic.
Jacques Cousteau Drowns in bathtub accident
After accidentally stepping on a rake he’d left standing in the bathtub.
I would say that old age is a bitch, but 61 isn’t old.
“Into Thin Air” was a heck of a book, btw.
Stoned or drunk? Just wondering, Telluride you can get high on second hand smoke.
Lingering effects of hypoxia, maybe? Or stoned/drunk.
Edmund Hillary survived his e legendary Everest exploit, only to have some woman who claims she was named after him fall down the stairs over and over again. Freaky stuff.
Is this the Woman who was dragged/carried up the Mountain?
I read that Book Years ago and do not remember.
We need Gravity Control. Now!
The Texas heat can do the same shit to you.
