a british man died over the holiday weekend, one of the men aiming for the world east highest peek. he's the eighth person to die this year from the climb. a few days earlier fisher posted this picture to instagram warning overcrowding could prove deadly. cbs national correspondent jericka duncan is here with the story behind it. >> a lot of things to consider. climbing 29,000 feet to the top of mt. everest has a serious list of hazards that could cause problems in a record number of people, and we're seeing more deaths on the mountains than in recent years. there were a record number of climbing permits this season. 381 were given permission to ascend the world's highest peak. that exposes climbers to extended hours of dangerously

low oxygen levels. another part of the problem is the weather. expert climbers say may is the only month where winds die down enough to make summiting possible. this year the time frame was even shorter than usual. a combination of the two factors leave people in the so-called death zone right before the peek. >> if you're up high and waiting in line, you could run out of oxygen and that could lead to > limited, but nepal's said doesn'tlit. >> i think the fact that fisher knew it was dangerous and posted

about it. you say one side regulates. why doesn't nepal regulate it? >> it comes down to money. it's a major economic driver for nepal. also it's unlikely that nepal will change its system and lose that economic boom. since it's unregulated, some who should not be attempting the dangerous climb should gear up and go anyway. that could gear up to bottlenecks as inexperienced climbers often go slower than seasoned veterans waiting in line. climbing experts alan arnett said it like this. if you have to qualify to perform in the iron man, why not climbing the mountain. >> very good question. that's like a traffic jam. >> again, isn't it about the

experience? climb the second highest. it will be a pretty picture still, i promise. >> they don't want to be average. i climbed the second highest. >> when you see it, it's gorgeous. right behind you, there's 13,000 people waiting. >> $11,000 would weed some people out. >> you don't have to worry about it. >> i'm going to be right here with you at the table cheering people on. jericka, thank you. always good to have you here. some big named clothing retailers are starting to rent their recent looks. ahead, how renting can save you some money. hey, vlad. you're watching "cbs this morning." we'll be right back.

here's a look at philadelphia this morning. the headquarters urban outfitters. rent the runway, an taylor express, and american eagle are already renting clothing for a monthly subscription price. it's expected to reach $1.85 billion woide by 2023. "usa today" business reporter sherese jones is here to show how the business of renting clothing is really changing the retail game. good to see you, sherese. >> good to see you. >> i wonder how we had the ability to get you. we're so lucky. and she said, i had nothing to do. we're still glad you're here.

did they look at the success of rent the runway and say, hey, we're onto something here? >> i think that's part of it. this is a way to get new customers and give a new option to old customers because we're in an economy where everybody shares everything. you share bicycles with citi bike, you share uber, your house with airbnb, clothing is kind of the next frontier. >> it's the fast fashion. >> with fast fashion it can get very wasteful and a lot of people don't feel comfortable wearing an outfit once or twice and throwing it in a closet or the trash. >> stella mccartney said something about fast fashion. she said most people wear the clothes three times and get rid of it and it's $500 million worth of waste. i never thought about it. >> fast fashion is driven by the

fact the clothes are pretty cheap. sometimes they're made to be worn a few times and get rid of them. if they're worn two or three times, are they confident there are people who want to wear clothes that have been on someone else's back? >> it's working out. if something is lasting for two or three months, that's the season. somebody else can use it, so you can keep passing it on. >> what happens if you spill something on it? >> they clean it. >> they dry clean it, they have laundering services. they try to something else. customers? >> i think you can get one outfit for $100 or five outfits for $100. so urban outfit is charging $8 to get six items month. that's opposed to buying all those things and not wearing them that often. >> i've done rent the runway

when jennifer first started it. i thought, how does that work. if you're going to a black tie event and you another you're going to only wear it one time a month, it makes sense. >> if you want a kardashian moment, it makes sense. you go out, go to your wonderful event and send it back. for some that's smart. >> i'm still waiting for my kardashian moment. >> that struck me too. >> how long you do get to keep these clothes for? >> usually it's a month. sometimes you can swap them more frequently. you can trade it in. >> you told me walmart for baby clothes. >> the world has all the baby clothes it needs for a decade. >> all

in a specialized world.

isn't incredibly important but if you look for example at sports and music, the domains we associate with early specialization when scientists study future domains they see they have a sampling period early on. they do a variety of sports, variety of instruments, gain a breadth of general skills, learn about their interests and abilities before they focus and systematically delay specializing until later than peers who plateau at lower levels. >> this doesn't only apply to elite athletes or aspiring athletes. this is a quietly inspiring book because so many of us these days, we live chaotic professional lives. you sta are the in one thing, the industry changes, you have to do another thing and you feel like that's a liability but as your book makes the point it's a unique advantage. >> i lho tony described your book, quietly inspiring. >> you think it's a business book, you run into it at an airport and you're like i feel better about me having readeat

away. it's a problem to have people be that specialized when all they have is a certain procedure, every problem looks like that kind of nail. >> what is your advice to parents who are worried about -- > you're a new father. >> you want to protect your kids for what comes, right. >> tony is a new father, too. tony is a new father, too. your baby how old is andre? >> 4 months. >> how old is teddy? >> he's 6 weeks. >> lots of eye makeup for both of us. >> i have two wonderful older children as well. what do we as parents do? what is the lesson from your book to help your kids be the best they can be? >> the only way they can learn what they're good at and interested in is by trying stuff. the best thing you can do is expose them to a lot of things, flec gt atreflect, called were they interested in it. the only way you can figure out is trying things and don't worry missing the next mozart or tiger

woods. in both cases, those fathers were reacting to the child's display of interest and prowess earlier, not the reverse. tiger said his father never asked him to play golf ever. as he said it's the child's interest that matters, not the parent's interest in having the child play. you should not worry you're going to miss that opportunity. if it's there, it will show itself and outside of that, the best thing to do is expose broadly and help them reflect on those experiences. >> i love that. we can take a breath and maybe get some sleep and the line in gayle's copy, the message is don't feel behind. if you make a change you have an advantage. >> as people get more specialized and we see a smaller portion of all the complex systems in the world, having diverse experiences, it's not falling behind. it's investing in yourself and in breadth and that becomes a source of power later on. >> david epstein, i feebett hav. appreciate it. thank you very much. "range" goes on sale tomorrow. ahead the range of things you can do on a day off, and why

nothing is sometimes the very best idea.

ferris buehler spent part of his famous day off at a cubs game. but that's not the only way to

spend a day away at the office. >> i'm used to rob banks five days a week, six days a week and by tend it was a pickpocket. >> i'm can't think of anything i'd love to do on my day off than go fishing with my two best friends spongebob and -- >> -- patrick. >> right. >> hey, nephew. i was looking for you at your home. >> oh, yeah. dad told me to take the day off. >> i normally do it on my day off. but this year on my day off i'm doing a walk a thon for literacy. we're against it. >> let's focus on other ways to spend your day off. we have ideas in this morning's newsletter. give yourself permission to actually take the day off. this is a big one. people walk around with their phones in their pockets, read news, research projects, all the

rest. actually take the day off. >> actually take the day off. >> message to your body at "the new york times." >> we obviously didn't get the memo. >> i happen to be here working on my day off. but it's so difficult for us to actually take ourselves out of the mindset of always being on. studies show that, you know, americans spend something like only 40% fewer emails on holiday mondays than regular mondays. it's crazy town. put your phones away. it's just a cycle. we need to be okay with accepting the day as day uf. you don't need to check your email or respond. the world won't end if you're not on your phones the whole day. >> why do you do this? >> a lot of studies shows that can in a weird way make you more productive. there was research published and

it showed that taking time off, letting your brain be lazy and wander can make us more creative, better problem solvers and have better and more creative ideas in the long run. >> it helps you focus and make priorities and make sense of the world. >> you talk about family time being important when you take a day off? >> yeah. one thing that's important for a day off, do things you wouldn't do normally. one of those things that i think can be really important is having family time. americans generally eat about 70% of their meals outside of the home. so a day off is kind of a good excuse for us to gather family around. doesn't have to be an elaborate meal. it could be ordering pizza. >> i did this last night. my daughter challenged me to take the phone and put it aside. >> did you do it? >> i did. >> was it very hard? >> it was very difficult. i said i have to do a show in

the morning. they said, we don't have our phones. and then we played cards. >> it's getting to the point where we're so splintered now that that becomes the thing to do. >> yeah. it can be a special occasion. fewer than half of american families have a regular family dinner. >> 20% are eating in the car. >> 20%. >> that's a horrible number. >> a little terrifying. >> while sending emails apparently. >> clean the fridge. i didn't get that. forgive somebody. >> forgive somebody. the really important one. >> cleaning the fridge, if i can understand, is not something i want to do on my day off. >> the therapeutic power of cleaning cannot be overstated. >> we should point out it is memorial day. are there particular things you can do on that front today?

>> sure. there's a website for a nonprofit called give well. it's gillwell.org. what they do is evaluate organizations baseded on how much good is being spent. for people being involved with charity, that would be a good place to start. go through your closet. take a couple of bags of clothes and go donate. >> i do this that's important. can you forgive and not be mad? >> you can. i did a story on. this holding onto grudges and not forgiving people can have repercussions. it can increase stress hormones, increase cardiovascular disease. let going of the anger is about freeing yourself. it's less of fribing the person but letting yourself be free of the hold they have over you. >> if someone's angry, i don know if you're going to win them

over with, it's not good for your heart. >> maybe you can clean your fridge. >> it makes sense. >> you talk about using the day off to have a chance to do something you've been avoiding. >> doing the one thing that's the monkey on your back. we have things that are in the background that we know we need to do but forget about them. >> when you can't fall asleep, i haven't done that. >> exactly. for me, like a day off is a good excuse just to get them done. it's so funny that these tasks are small things, email you have to send, sen card. getting it out of the way is such a big thing. >> if you're sitting on the couch watching us, do that creative thing. >> thank you smarter living editor. >> me how did you get here? >> messing up a whole life and
