I just cannot imagine what courage they have at that time they climbed. Compared to modern climbers which have hi tech equipments when you have guides, fix ropes etc. Specially 1924 with Mallory and Irvine its like going to the moon.
Yup. We’ll probably never know if George Mallory and Andrew Irvine summited, or *exactly* how they died. Regardless, they earned their place among the greatest mountaineers of all time.
Mallory made it to the top. They didn't find the photo of his wife in his Pocket.
@@LESTR97 Only the chinese know. They were the ones who took the camera off of Mallory when they found his body.
@@ryanjofre from all the data we have on it. I think its pretty unlikely that mallory made it in my opinion.
@@amosonyoutube with respect, there's no reason why Mallory and Irvine couldn't have summited. 1). Weather was relatively warm (for Everest), 2). Their clothing and boots were of comparable (or lighter) than modern clothing and boots. 3). They had oxygen (and Irvine was familiar and capable of fixing it) 4). Mallory was an experienced climber. 5). Mallory was in the two previous expeditions. 6). Matterhorn had been climbed in 1865 so 2nd step wasn't impossible due to gear limitations. 6). The second step has been climbed by two different climbers on two different routes on the same day without the ladder, a man of Mallory's experience would have been able to climb the second step (if the rock and snow conditions were favourable) as it wasn't the difficulty of climbing it, it was the time it would take and the problems associated with high altitude
He's Kiwi through and through, a lot of people saying he has got a british accent or Aussie haven't heard how older Kiwis speak. Many of them who were educated in Grammar Schools spoke like this
Actually the blood that flowed through Ed was Yorkshire and a little bit of Irish in there too
@Sanctus Paulus 1962 back then australian and kiwi accents were very similar
@SanctusPaulus-ic5gl then you can’t tell the difference. Australians have far more twang in their voice.
BIG BIG RESPECT SIR EDMUND HILLARY AND TENZING NORGUAY
Tenzing was not HIS Sherpa but a Sherpa of equal strength and skill as Sir Ed
Tenzing was way better than Edward.
what do you mean?
The word Sherpa became interchangeable with mountain guide at this time. In fact, most people didn't even realise it was the name of an ethnic group. Obviously, the word isn't used like that anymore. So when they say "his Sherpa" they mean his mountain guide. Tensing was a professional porter/mountain guide and met Hilary on another expedition and he hired him to work on this expedition. They equal partners as climbers and Hilary treated him as such but it is a fact that he was hired just like Sherpas on Everest today.
With all due respect Sir Edmond Hillary has always given equal credit and respect to Tensing Norgay. Additionally he has always referred to him as his Co Climer!!!!
I believe Hillary has always been very modest about his achievements. He certainly did not try to be any kind of celebrity. I met him once.
who's here after hearing quadeca's FMTY?
Late but yes lol
QUADECA
I can’t believe that they interviewed a true mountain climbing legend
Love when someone really knows his stuff!!!
...what a legend
I am studying 12th standard I had one English lesson based on the journey of Hillary sir and Tenzing sir
very good
Page 138+1.
Hillary studied the technicalities of mountain climbing and during World War II, while training for the Air Force near Mount Egmont, he snatched every oppoturnity for practice.
3:30 very true words.. altitude doesn't always worth the view
The legend
Mallory and Irvine might have summited in 1924. 1). Weather was relatively warm (for Everest), 2). Their clothing and boots were of comparable (or lighter) than modern clothing and boots. 3). They had oxygen (and Irvine was familiar and capable of fixing it) 4). Mallory was an experienced climber. 5). Mallory was in the two previous expeditions. 6). Matterhorn had been climbed in 1865 so 2nd step wasn't impossible due to gear limitations. 7). The second step has been climbed by two different climbers on two different routes on the same day without the ladder, a man of Mallory's experience would have been able to climb the second step (if the rock and snow conditions were favourable) as it wasn't the difficulty of climbing it, it was the time it would take and the problems associated with high altitude
Wonder who cleaned up those boats
Well done Super hero

Obviously he knew what he was doing.
Munro = [C20: after Hugh Thomas Munro (1856-1919), who listed these in 1891]

Tanzan is a male Japanese name.
He is jamesbond...
It's amazing to see his frozen carcass in the snow on the mountain. He died doing what he loved...
Who?
Neither of them died during their climb
He died at home in Newzealand in his bed...
@@sketch3744 did they take his body down off the mountain? im confused, i thought he died on the mountain?
@@laurieuebbing3500 He didn't die, he safely made it down and went on to live for 40 more years. He died in 2008 at home in NZ...
ایڈمنڈ ہلری نے سب پہلے ماونٹ ایورسٹ کو سر کیا ۔۔۔
oh we didn't know it thanks for enlightening us
@@vipin395 بہت شکریہ نوازش آپ کی
Tenzing was Hillary’s equal- jealousy’s competitive ness the 1st to Everest’s Summit! Tenzing craved recognition,he was a climber and knew by all means.. A Sherpa he acted the part -Hillary must have known this man was his equal, and was as much too blame. Sadly both men paid the ferryman.
E Hillary lost his wife and daughter!
Tenzing- surrounded by fast friends and guilt ridden found solace in his addiction. His wife snd family suffered as he isolated himself and withdrew from true friends snd family.
Jesus I thought I was having a stroke reading this.

"In 1953, Hillary and his Nepalese Sherpa... reached the final summit "
his Nepalese Sherpa?
WTF is this?
His accent sounds more Australian then New Zealand
Don't start
People in New Zealand and Australia were generally encouraged to sound more English. The New Zealand accent started to develop around the 1940s, but wasn’t noticeable until the 80s
Not really
I disagree, being a Native Kiwi I feel our Men have a more down to earth way of talking. . Our Kiwi men sound and are just that ...Kiwi Men☮️💖
Thank you Sir Ed Hillary, my first Nepal New Year 2021 in Alice Springs .... they Respect you & you Represent them. U R loved by the Nepalise people. You made us so proud to be Kiwi 💖U heaps.
Meanwhile the Sherpas have been summiting Everest for thousands of years but nobody cared until a British guy did it. 🤣
Sir Edmund Hillary isnt British mate, nice try though
@@finnjlock8217 Holy cats, I thought he was British! My apologies friend. 😳
no they havent. He and Tenzing was the first to reach the summit.
