Re: Would you fare in Mordor/Mount Doom?

As to the height of Mt Doom, well it might well be 4500ft (1500 m), which in itself is not very high at all. But the what amazes me more than anything else is the fact that the hobbits climbed it without much food or drink and after enduring the bad treatment from the orcs for the sake of Frodo.

They were like under a transe, they had to carry their mission out. And good for the Middle Age too.

Lets not forget that Mt Doom seems in the book all the more impressive because Hobbits are small people.
