I find it funny how despite Japan only ranking number 6 in "most summiters" of Mt Everest. They completely top the charts on the ''oldest summiters" section(both female and male). Also black people don't like climbing cold mountains. And they tell me its wrong to steriotype (media.kotakuinaction2.win)

Black people are racially inclined (heh) to lay down on flat, hot surfaces. See the Abbos in Australia getting run over so frequently they need an entire PSA commercial series about it; and any common city-black milling about on stoops and sidewalks.

Whites climbing mountains is our racial longing to return to Hyperborea, or something.

There's also the expense and time involved, as well, which I imagine is a factor.

But, at the end of the day, black people just don't do outdoor stuff. There was a big push in camping/outdoor circles a while back about 'muh racism' or some stupid bullshit because the insufferable activist crowd noticed that blacks are basically non-existent when it comes to that sort of thing.

Revealed preferences and all.

Hobbies mostly develop based on what you are exposed to as a child. Its why rich people have rich people hobbies and poor people have poor ones generally. Rich hobbies generally involve travel, prior expenses, (as you said) and a lot of time, while poor ones are usually easy to pick up and quick enough that you can squeeze it in whenever you have time.

Blacks primarily live in urban sprawls in poverty. So they will default to hobbies you can do there, like basketball or things you can do with just a group of niggas standing in a circle (like rapping).

It's the "white vs. black" hiking meme.

Everest is basically a theme park now though, so how does that factor into this?

Yes but that doesn't mean that it isn't still difficult to climb , and even more so to summit(reach the top). There's still a lot of people dying every year because they underestimated how hard it is.

Japan has a mountain that's part of its national identity, so it would follow that some Japanese would develop a fascination of Everest.

Yeah Japan is very mountainous in general, and with its small size if somebody wanted to make a hobby of climbing mountains they could practice pretty easily before going overseas for bigger attempts.

It would probably also explain why there are so many American climbers. We have a ton of mountain ranges (including but not limited to: Cascades, Rockies, Appalachians, Alaska Range), that all have different peaks, difficulties, climates, etc. So it is possible to train yourself on climbing something like Pikes Peak, Rainer, or McKinley before you prepare for "The Big One" as it were. McKinley especially since it is the second highest behind Everest IIRC (and certainly in the top 5 if it isnt).

Pro wrestler Darby Allin (Samuel Ratsch) climbed it recently and left an AEW flag at the peak
