A 27-year-old university student who climbed Mount Fuji outside of its official climbing season was rescued twice in four days, after he returned to look for his mobile phone.
Third time’s the charm
This article does not contain the critical information of whether or not he successfully found his phone!
A third climb may be needed.
Apparently media doesn’t know as of yesterday: https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mount-fuji-climber-rescued-twice-returned-to-get-phone/
It was not known whether he was able to find his phone in the end, local media reported.
I’m hoping he found it, had reception, called authorities, and said, “Sorry guys, you’re not going to believe this, but…”.
Maybe he just didn’t want to hike back down.
I get it, I got the worst blisters in my life doing the same thing, the hike up was fine but down destroyed my toes.
Or the name of the prestigious university cranking out this caliber of genius.
Their students may not be the brightest, but they are renowned for their tenacity
He’s got that drive
But not that phone
A Milford Man.
If you climb a mountain and are rescued twice, did you really climb it if you didn’t instagram it?
But days later, he returned to the mountain to retrieve belongings that he left behind, including his phone. He was rescued again on Saturday after suffering from altitude sickness but is now out of danger.
I dunno, seems like the danger occupies the gap between his glasses and the back of his hat.
Did he get his phone back, at least?
2FA really sucks
Now I get it
I’d totally go back too.
