Why is Annapurna I deadly?

Annapurna I is notorious as one of the world's most dangerous peaks, with a high fatality rate among climbers. Its extreme weather, frequent avalanches, and technically challenging routes contribute to its reputation. The proposed renaming to 'Nimsdai Annapurna' would link the peak's formidable nature with the legacy of a mountaineer who conquered such challenges.
