Some of them had to leave their dying friends up there to die during a very severe weather condition. This was because they didn't have enough oxygen bottle nor the energy tho carry down the dying members. They themselves were dying so nothing much they could do. I guess every climbers have this at the back of their mind,i.e the possibility of being left alone when the situation becomes hopeless.

IF you read the story carefully; u'd realise that the situation was not that simple. That person was on the verge of death and there's probably not much that could be done for him. Where they were, everyone is probably at their limits of exhaustion and probably not capable of thinking clearly. I would like to think that ppl including climbers are generally not that heartless. It's sad that this had happened and we do not fully understand the whole story. So pls do not oversimplify and condemn so easily. My 2 cents worth.
