Mike Posner explains why he climbed Mount Everest.
let fear drive him to train for months to climb Mount Everest, but his fear had nothing to do with actually scaling Earth's tallest mountain -- instead, he was more afraid of NOT doing it.
The EDM star told us all about his epic adventure when he joined us Tuesday on"TMZ Live" ... explaining that the idea to tackle Everest first came to him 2 weeks after finishing his epic 2019 trek across the United States.Instead of kicking back after that accomplishment, Mike says he found himself terrified he'd wake up one day a"fat, old, white guy" who'd only done one cool thing -- thatfrom NJ to Cali.
And, he says the climb was actually harder than he thought it would be ... especially mentally. Fact is, many mountain climbers -- some way more skilled than Posner -- die trying to conquer Everest ... so he was quick to give props to the people who helped him get it done.
