A passage is given below followed by several conclusions which can be drawn from the facts stated in the passages. You have to examine each inference separately in the context of the passage, decide upon its truth or falsity, and choose the conclusion that best supports the passage. 

Just as some people like to play football or cricket, similarly some men like to climb mountains. This is often very difficult to do, for mountains are not just big hills. Paths are usually very steep. Some mountain sides are straight up and down, so it may take hours to climb as little as one hundred feet. There is always the danger that you may fall off and be killed or injured. Men talk about conquering a mountain. It is a wonderful feeling to reach the top of a mountain after climbing for hours, and maybe even days. You look down and see the whole country below you. You feel like a king. One can cite of an incident where two Italian prisoners of war escaped from a prison camp in Kenya during the war. They did not try to get back to their own country, for they knew that was impossible. Instead, they climbed to the top of Mount Kenya, and then they came down again and gave themselves up. They had wanted to get that feeling of freedom that one has, after climbing a difficult mountain. Freedom or liberty makes an individual's life worthwhile and living an independent life, free of any restriction is what one desires. 

The passage, if true, is best supported by which of the following conclusions?

1
People do not like mountaineering as much as they like football or cricket
2
The two prisoners wanted to escape from the prison, so they climbed the mountain
3
In spite of the risk being involved, people still climb mountains for the thrill of the sport
4
Mountaineering is not a popular sport because their are no spectators for the post
5
It is a great feeling of both being liberated and conquering as one feels after climbing a mountain.
