* ArduousDescentToTerraFirma: After ScalingTheSummit, the climbers attempt to descend the mountain, but as they do so the blizzard makes the way back far more dangerous. Many characters end up dying due to the harsh conditions, and those who don't have to resist until they're ultimately rescued. This movie is based on the 1996 Mount Everest disaster, so the misfortune is bound to be displayed.

** Though the film plays with this, by explaining [[spoiler: his survival with the ThePowerOfLove, as he manages to stand and walk while picturing his wife and children asking him to join them. TruthInTelevision, too; he's said that very thing in multiple interviews.]]

* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: As the team ascends, Helen hopes they don't wind up with another year of no clients at the top, Adventure Consultants having failed to summit in 1995 due to bad conditions. Well, they get to the top, but two of them, Doug and Yasuko, don't come back.

* CastingGag: ''Everest'' is not the first film about a disaster that occurred in the 1990s to have Creator/JohnHawkes portraying one of the victims. He plays Doug Hansen in this film and had previously played Michael "Bugsy" Moran in Film/ThePerfectStorm.

** The deaths of Doug Hanson and Andy Harris are depicted onscreen, with Hanson cutting himself off from his guide rope in an oxygen-deprived stupor and Harris suffering a bout of paradoxical undressing and sliding to his death. In real life, the circumstances of both men's deaths are not precisely known, as their bodies were never found, and the last person to see them alive, Rob Hall, awoke the next morning to find that they had already disappeared.

* AluminumChristmasTrees:
** Rob Hall really did call his wife via radio [[spoiler: suggesting Sarah as a baby name, just before his death]].
** [[spoiler:Beck]] surviving twice against all odds (living through a night completely exposed on the mountain and then besting his would-be death sentence of exposure upon his return to the camp) seems a complete Hollywood move, but as mentioned further down [[RealityIsUnrealistic it did happen exactly that way in real life]], and was just as inexplicable to the other climbers then.
