I am so scared of mountain climbing and things like mountaineering.

Mountaineering seems to have a varied definition depending on who you ask. Some categorize it as more of climbing while others lump it into more of a hiking/ backpacking thing.

I am scared of heights. So climbing any mountain would be impossible for me.

Well then you should definitely never go anywhere near mount everest. It is the highest mountain above sea level.

I would love to go see it and if I can drive up a mountain then I would be fine, but no climbing for me

Yeah a lot of people die on mount everest. David Sharp who was a mountaineer dies in 2006 while on the mountain. It was pretty controversial.

That's really interesting. Have you ever been to Mt. Everest?
