Are Sherpas Dying so Rich Foreignenrs can fulfill their Mt. Everest dreams?

At least four people have died on Mt. Everest this week. Three of them amateur climbers, and one a Sherpa mountain guide. And he is not the first one. Dozens of Sherpas have lost their lives guiding foreigners to the summit of the world's tallest mountain since 1953, when British expeditioner Edmund Hillary and local Sherpa Tenzing Norgay made the first ascent on Everest.
