AEW star Darby Allin is officially gearing up for one of the most dangerous challenges of his life—climbing Mount Everest. After his plans were postponed last year due to a foot injury, the former TNT Champion is now set to begin his ascent on April 15, according to The Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
A Risky Undertaking
Climbing Everest is no small feat, especially for someone without extensive mountaineering experience. The journey to the summit typically takes around two months, though unpredictable weather and other challenges can extend the timeframe. With over 340 recorded fatalities on the mountain, Everest remains one of the most treacherous climbs in the world.
One of the most haunting aspects of the mountain is Rainbow Valley, a section near the summit known for the brightly colored clothing of fallen climbers whose bodies remain frozen in place. Another infamous landmark is Green Boots, the body of an unidentified climber who perished in 1996 and has since become a grim marker for those making the climb.
What’s Next for Darby?
Allin has never shied away from extreme challenges, whether inside the ring or in his personal life. He’s previously expressed his desire to push his limits beyond professional wrestling, and this Everest climb is the latest example of that mindset.
As he embarks on this dangerous mission, AEW fans will be eagerly awaiting updates on his progress. If successful, Allin will join a rare group of individuals who have conquered the world’s tallest peak. However, given the risks involved, this journey will undoubtedly test his endurance and determination like never before.
Stay tuned for updates on Darby Allin’s Everest expedition as he takes his daredevil persona to new heights—literally.
