It would be less. Probably not a significant difference, but certainly not the same or more. You're further from the source of gravity, so it applies less.

During 1997 there were 85 climbers from all over the world who reached the summit of Mount Everest at 8,848 meters high. 3 of the climbers died on their way back down from the summit but their summit still counts.

Every season is different. Take 2014 for instance, 16 died in an avalanche on Mount Everest. Last year, 2015, 19 had died on the mountain. The usual statics show 1 or 2 die every year while on Mount Everest.

There are about 200 dead bodies left on Everest.

They are left because conditions are so severe, that the extra strain of bringing them down may well cause the Death of the retrieval party too.

There are many dangers on Mount Everest. Many people die before reaching the summit, which is 11,328 feet from base camp because of the strong winds, the freezing temperatures (that reach about -35ºC in the winter), and lack of oxygen above Earth's atmosphere. These are all things that you must be wary of when climbing Mount Everest. Not to mention the walls of ice and the probability that if not properly trained, you could die from bad equipment or lack of knowledge of your equipment.

Mount Everest the highest mountain in the world is part of the Himalayan mountain range. The Himalaya are among the youngest mountain ranges on the planet.

If you count all the travel to base camp and then waiting for the weather to be just right, most expeditions take a few months, though the last part of the climb to the summit is usually done in several hours, weather permitting.

It has been done several times; therefore it is possible to ski on Mount Everest. As well as K2 and many other mountains. The question is: are you a good enough skier to ski on Mount Everest? And also, you got to remember that everything is skiable-- just you have a 100% chance of dying. But the mountains mentioned earlier have been done.

The distance from Stone Mountain to the base of Mount Everest is 8,122 miles.

The region above 25,000 feet (7,600 meters) is called the death zone. The reason for this name is because nothing lives at that altitude or above and no human can survive long there due to the lack of oxygen in the thin air.
