Of the 14 mountains higher than 8000 m, Everest is far from the most dangerous climb:

Yeah, and Reinhold Messner is one crazy dude, being the first to climb all of them, and the first to climb all of them without oxygen. |

Crazy and impressive, has also climbed several other mountains including Kilimanjaro, mt. mckinley, eiger and crossed the Gobi desert and the Antarctic. Strangely it doesn't look like he has conqoured Mt. Blanc, he might be the only man who can justify calling it a large hill. |

He has taken Mt. Blanc and Elbrus, as well as Carstenz Pyramid and Mount Kosciuszko so he could claim any version of the Seven Summits, though he was only the 2nd person to do that |
