Mountain climbers are a special breed of people. Not only are they fearless when it comes to heights, but they seem to actually relish it! As they climb very steep mountains, covered in snow, they sometimes have to stop and take a nap or even a full sleep before continuing in the light of day, when it's a lot less dangerous. To do so, they hang themselves between heaven and earth, in beds, tents, swings or makeshift baskets. It all sounds well and good, but seeing these photos and how they nap, do you think YOU would get a moment's rest? |
