1960 Climbing Mount Everest (Revealing the most controversial mountaineering event in history)
1960, the China mountaineering team successfully climbed the world's highest peak, Mount Everest, in less than three months. However, this mountaineering activity has become one of the most controversial mountaineering activities in history. Because the western countries closed to China at that time, few people were able to enter China, let alone climb Mount Everest. So many people doubt whether the China mountaineering team really succeeded in climbing Mount Everest.

debate

After the summit, the China mountaineering team released a series of photos and reports, but these photos and reports aroused the suspicion of western countries. Because none of the photos of the China mountaineering team showed that they had reached the highest point of Mount Everest. Moreover, the report of the China mountaineering team did not mention whether they succeeded in reaching the highest point of Mount Everest.

truth

After years of investigation and study, the truth of whether the China mountaineering team really succeeded in climbing Mount Everest on 1960 was finally revealed. 1999, an American mountaineer went to Mount Everest and found the route used by the China mountaineering team at that time. He found that there was indeed a very dangerous distance on the route used by the China mountaineering team, and this distance was the highest point leading to Mount Everest. Therefore, he believes that the China mountaineering team has successfully reached the highest point of Mount Everest.
