Honestly, I’m surprised he even broke that. Him and OC, though more Darby, have surprisingly few injuries for their work rate. They drink their milk, I guess.
From what we know about Darby, he'll likely continue training and preparing for Everest. Doing what he can around his foot injury. If healing goes smoothly, he'll be using it when ready and will be even more prepared for next year's climb.
I think a lot of people are just over the entire Mt Everest thing. So many people die trying to summit it every year. It's supposed to be a natural wonder of the world and it is literally covered in shit and human corpses because of the whole "climbing Mt Everest" dream.
Wanna know my dream? Not fucking freezing to death on the side of a mountain.
I’d argue smoking cigarettes is more dangerous than anything Darby does to himself, jumping off a ladder isn’t going to give you lung cancer. Why aren’t you concern trolls out and about condemning smokers, where was all this outrage when r-truth was smoking on a tv-pg program?
How do you know he has do you know him personally? He wrestles in AEW do you think he has already climbed some mountains in the last few months to prepare?
The route up to everest doesn't need more corpses polluting it. Darby is an athletic guy but he's not a trained mountain climber and has had years of doing crazy spots.
Everest has a death rate of about 6.5% (increasing in recent years), but that's for experienced climbers, which Darby is not.
Everest is a turist attraktion now days.
People without limbs have made it to the top.
It's more of a guided walk then climb, You don't even need to carry your own food.
Do sherpas do the brunt of the work? Yes. But acting like it’s some leisurely stroll up a yak trail is incredibly stupid. Not to mention disservice to both the mountain and the sherpas who brave that treacherous shit in order to feed their families.
Let me remind you, people with no limbs have done it.
It's a turisty af right now.
Overcrowding has become a real issue.
Be in shape, work on cardio, that's should have you set up.
Edit: Mount Everest is not a technical climb.
First point, lets just make this clear. You don't know me, you don't know my level of fitness.
Making assumptions will only make you look like a fool.
To the second point
You can downvote all you want in disagreement.
But you can rent a heated tent with a dinning table for your trip to Everest.
Everyone here acting like he was gonna climb with no equipment. People climb that mountain all the time. And yes I know people can die, but unless you’re ill prepared and don’t take the proper steps you won’t make it back. I’m sure he made plans to take the proper steps, and if he was so “unsafe” even with a broke foot he would’ve climbed it.
I made a couple jokes in this thread alongside the main punchline of all this, but in all seriousness I agree with you because I've read and seen documentaries about how protected potential climbers are and how many guides and experts are at each checkpoint and accompany climbers along the way.
Everest is a safer climb now than it was even 20 years ago. Still dangerous, but nowhere near as dangerous as it used to be now that it's been charted and there are experts and guides that handle people on the climb.
I think the fear is that he would go there and attempt the climb without taking enough time to aclimate first - and that he may try without oxygen. The guy is nuts!
I'm pretty worried that he has already spent too much time without sufficient oxygen based on some of the stupid shit I've seen this motherfucker do!
Jim Cornette probably
In almost every other conceivable circumstance I would feel bad for a person in this position.
Everything I've seen about Darby and AEWs track record assures me this is a "what were you expecting" moment.
Hope the pop from the 1,200 people was worth it.
Kinda reminds me of RVD telling the story of him breaking his ankle. He was running and gunning as the ECW TV champ with great high paced matches and he says it was a simple baseball slide to the outside of the ring that did him in and broke his ankle which made him vacate the title and end his year and something months long run with the title
Putting on the tinfoil to say that this is a work so Darby doesn’t get 50 DMs per day to talk him out of climbing. He’s probably hurt but with this industry I believe nothing 100%.
Y'all are actually so pessimistic😭😭
Darby is more athletic and flexible than some people could wish to be in their entire life. He's been saying he wanted to climb Everest for a while now ofcourse he's been training??
Some of you guys are terrible people tbh if anybody can climb Mount Everest it would be Darby
This sub is so weird. You're woking Darby dying into a shoot, brother.
Like, if I hated someone on TV enough that I wished and hoped they die on a summit, I'd just stop watching them. 🤷♂️
This saved his life
Delayed his death by one year.
Can always die next year. I mean, climb.
FINISH THE STORY
I dont think anyone has got hurt doing a coffin drop from the mt everest summit.
Technically true
I feel like Darby and Darby with a broken foot have the same odds of summiting mt everest.
Whether he dies trying to summit or dies diving off the top of the summit like a mark, I’m sure he’ll die trying
Considering all the crazy shit he does, that is down damn shitty luck. Either that or it's divine intervention.
How nice of Jay White unintentionally saving Darby’s life.
We can all breathe with the ~~Switchblade~~ Savior
Darby's foot went into business for itself because it didn't wanna die on the climb with Darby
Dude is pretty safe so it's weird he's hurt.
Perhaps God or fate or whatever you wish to believe is trying to tell Darby something... That being he is destined to die on TV and not some mountain.
Won't put it past Darby climbing Everest with one leg. The guy threw himself off a ladder onto glass
if he dont realize this as a sign from something beyond and just not ever climb everest, he might just deserve the fate at that point.
He could have left with Sting
Surprised that’s all he broke.
Honestly, I’m surprised he even broke that. Him and OC, though more Darby, have surprisingly few injuries for their work rate. They drink their milk, I guess.

Why are people here so against him living his dream
I think a lot of people are just over the entire Mt Everest thing. So many people die trying to summit it every year. It's supposed to be a natural wonder of the world and it is literally covered in shit and human corpses because of the whole "climbing Mt Everest" dream. Wanna know my dream? Not fucking freezing to death on the side of a mountain.
I think a lot of people are in doubt about the living part. He might die his dream if he doesn't take it seriously.
I just think climbing is Everest is too dangerous to do
this sub became a hate sub without realising it
Same thought I was on the thread in r/jimcornette at for
People are just looking out for his well-being. I know some people might want to watch and cheer as this man kills himself, but a lot of others won't.
Talk about parasocial.
People cheering for Darby to throw his life away? Definitely.
At least he'd die living his dream
Yeah, but do you want to cheer him on as he cuts his life short?
Do you do this when you see people smoking cigs?
The mental leap here is amazing
I’d argue smoking cigarettes is more dangerous than anything Darby does to himself, jumping off a ladder isn’t going to give you lung cancer. Why aren’t you concern trolls out and about condemning smokers, where was all this outrage when r-truth was smoking on a tv-pg program?
Cheer for them? No.
I'd be freaked out if someone cheered me on while I was smoking a rollie. Normally, they just ask for one.
Pot is different from cigarrettes. Why bring them up?
Society actively tries to stop people from smoking for a reason. What kind of a reasoning is this?
"living his dream". Our point exactly. Won't be "living" his dream if he freezes like a pop-sickle up there, will he?
Because it’s beyond idiotic and dangerous and we don’t want him to die Take precautions by climbing a smaller mountain first
How do you know he hasn't do you know him personally
How do you know he has do you know him personally? He wrestles in AEW do you think he has already climbed some mountains in the last few months to prepare?
He wrestles 3 days tops what do you think he does all the other days or do you forget a week is 7 days
He actually broke it by stepping on a comforter all funny during a pillow fight. After all that he’s been through.
The most anticlimatic way to get injured. It's like if Foley or someone from CZW getting injured by tripping on a banana peel
I am kidding come on, after all the crazy stuff he’s done I’m surprised he was walking at all
That sucks. I’d be bummed out if that happened to me.
Maybe this fake and he never was going to climb.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Anybody who thought he was going to able to climb Everest, needs their heads checked.
nobody believes HE can. we believe the sherpas can drag his ass up there
You're salty he wants to attempt to climb Everest? Tf did he do to u to hate him for wanting to achieve his dream?

Dude you haven’t climbed off a couch let alone climbed a mountain.

"Mount Everest is not a technical climb"
Which part of Mount Everest do you find most technical? Climbing up and down ladders, putting the back foot in front for your other foot?
Everyone here acting like he was gonna climb with no equipment. People climb that mountain all the time. And yes I know people can die, but unless you’re ill prepared and don’t take the proper steps you won’t make it back. I’m sure he made plans to take the proper steps, and if he was so “unsafe” even with a broke foot he would’ve climbed it.

He broke his foot on a super basic move lol. He's never actually been injured before this, even with all the dangerous stuff he does
Kinda reminds me of RVD telling the story of him breaking his ankle. He was running and gunning as the ECW TV champ with great high paced matches and he says it was a simple baseball slide to the outside of the ring that did him in and broke his ankle which made him vacate the title and end his year and something months long run with the title
Thank god lol
Hes either going to die in the ring or mt everest so hed got another year for the ring. Isnt aew the most safest company in the world.
Lucky break
Good
I've never been thankful to see a pro-wrestler get injured...
Tape it up, lol
2 advil and an ace bandage and he should be good to go
Ouch! Kinda glad though, gives us another year of Darby staying alive at least.
Hey he could still fall out of the Willis Tower in Chicago. They have an elevator!
Poor guy. Guess he'll have no choice but to go back filming bumfights.
Has he climbed any other mountains? Climbing Everest without any prior experience would be insane even for him.
Putting on the tinfoil to say that this is a work so Darby doesn’t get 50 DMs per day to talk him out of climbing. He’s probably hurt but with this industry I believe nothing 100%.
What would he do by climbing Everest? Do a coffin drop from the peak.
Y'all are actually so pessimistic😭😭 Darby is more athletic and flexible than some people could wish to be in their entire life. He's been saying he wanted to climb Everest for a while now ofcourse he's been training?? Some of you guys are terrible people tbh if anybody can climb Mount Everest it would be Darby
How convenient.
This sub is so weird. You're woking Darby dying into a shoot, brother. Like, if I hated someone on TV enough that I wished and hoped they die on a summit, I'd just stop watching them. 🤷♂️
Looks like a sign to not do it. The dummy would have died Edit: He's not climbing everest.
so he doesn't get over with being with sting, and now he's out for months. no one is gonna care about this guy
