weather
"My client's brother died because YOU! Mr. Travel Company, didn't
provide enough blankets!"

falls
"My client's son died because YOU! Mr. Travel Company, didn't make
sure the rope was properly ancored!"

altitude sickness
"My client's mother died because YOU! Mr. Travel Company, didn't
check her medical records before sending her up the side of a
mountain! A MOUNTAIN!! for God's sake!"

etc.
"My client's great grandfather died because YOU! Mr. Travel Company,
didn't !"

And yet trips to Everest still happen. The lawsuits haven't stopped
it cold.
