A member from the Bitcoin Brazilian Community is climbing Everest and, if he succeeds, will put a Bitcoin flag almost on the top of the Earth's highest mountain. The current news is that Allex Ferreira (the mentioned member of BR community) will arrive to the Everest Base Camp in about 4 days, where he should put the Bitcoin flag (at an altitude of ~5,000 meters).

If it succeeds, Bitcoin will be (really) nearest to the Moon. Go Allex! Go Bitcoin!

I'm not very excited by the idea. They already have serious problem with all the rubbish left behind by the climbers (not to mention over 200 dead bodies).
If succeeded, the flag won't be even at the top, and, to be honest, it's not the prettiest of flags:
Yeah what the hell, if you are going to take it that far you might as well get a good looking flag, he could have printed an HD bitcoin logo in color.
