Leshan Giant Buddha Travel Guide, History & Facts
"Near to the hometown of Giant Pandas - Chengdu in Sichuan, China, sits the Leshan Giant Buddha which is one of the most popular destination for both tourists and Buddhists.
Carved in the 8th century AD out of the hillside, the stone Buddha is the tallest Buddha sculpture in the world with a height of 71 meters, 8 meters taller than Bamyan Buddhas in Afghanistan. Also, it is much taller than the famous the tall Buddha of Yungang Grottoes and Vairocana Buddha of Longmen Grottoes. It was listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site together with Mount Emei in 1996."

Traversing across the K2 bottleneck, 400m from the summit of the world's 2nd tallest mountain.
Alt. 27,000 feet, well inside the death zone, 13 of the mountain's last 14 fatalities have occurred here. You fall, you die.
Though your fall may be stabilized due to the mass of your giant testicles.
There is an alternate route, which involves climbing up the foking ice. Which has only been done once.
