Pemba Dorje was a Sherpa from Nepal who claimed he had seen “black shadows” when he climbed Mount Everest in 2004. He said, “When I paused at a mount of rocks I saw some spirits in the form of black shadows coming towards me, stretching their hands and begging for something to eat.”
Dorje felt they were spirits of dead mountaineers who had died on the mountain. This may not seem farfetched as the bodies of dead mountaineers are left in the snow as a mark of respect.
