Two climbers who were competing for the title of the first American woman to scale all 14 of the world’s 8,000 metre-high mountains have died at the last hurdle on the same remote peak in Tibet.

Gina Marie Rzucidlo and Anna Gutu were climbing the 26,335ft Mount Shishapangma, in Tibet, in separate teams when they both lost their lives.

For both, it was the final summit in their bid to climb all 14 of the world’s highest peaks.

They died in separate locations when avalanches hit the mountain at the weekend.

Ms Gutu died alongside her Nepalese guide, Mingmar Sherpa.

Fellow American climber Ms Rzucidlo and her Nepalese guide, Tenjen Sherpa, were declared missing on the same day when avalanches hit the slopes at elevations of 7,600m – about 25,000ft – and 8,000m, about 26,000ft.

#2 Vinegar and baking soda independently will clean stuff (acid and base). But if you mix them, they neutralize each other which kills the cleaning capability of both. Then you add a dishwashing tablet (why not just some dish soap?). Then you add coke and lemon juice, so you're back to an acid (2 of them). So that seems like someone read one of those home made cleaning things and decided "if all of these things work, they should work even better if you mix them all!"

#3 No, no, nope. No idea why someone felt the need to combine a statue of a woman and a relief map of the moon with all of the craters. I wonder if that is AI or real.
