  • RESPONDING to the person who asked who was the last guying talking at the end of this video. This person making assertion at the end of this video is DR. THOMAS HORNBEIN, the chief memeber of the AMERICAN TEAM that summited EVEREST for the first time in 1963, ten years after Hillary and his sherpa companion summited EVEREST in the 1953 BRITISH ROYAL SOCIETY EXPEDITION. Thanks all for your attention to this video. Goodbye for the moment

  • Sorry, but if you cannot supply "bull's eye, or "smoking gun" supporting real evidence , then your assertations must be considered NULL

  • First real Everest climb! Crazy bastards.

  • I do not understand what are you trying to say?

  • Everest summit is @ 29028 ft. But with using oxygen, you artificially reduce the status of the mountain, and its only like summiting a 26028 feet mountain so I agree with hastelculo that this was the first real true successful summit attempt, and I would never summit Everest with bottled oxygen, so ya that is what hastelculo is trying to say.

  • LOOK I AGREE with your technicsl dsts, but if summit EVEREST with or without oxgen you have to bring supporting "smoking gun evidence" as an objetive witness that summiting EVEREST WAS TRUE. If you cannot apport this "objective evidence" it is like if you have never summited EVEREST. The RED COMMUNIST Chineese big party summited EVEREST in 1960 -WITH AUXILIARY OXYGEN" and they did not have supporting FILM EVIDENCE , but they did had a lot of personal witnesses to testify around these matters.

  • @mardiane climb up there and go see all the garbage that's all over the summit

  • @mardiane he means crazy basta*rds for climbing mt everast

  • awesome, incredible i cant find any other words for this! i just love messner and habeler for having done that!

  • One of the great purists my hero after Hillary. Messner had the tecky clothes and knowledge of the mountain that they didnt

  • The guy at the end of the video is Thomas Hornbein. He and his climbing partner Will Unsoeld were the 1st to climb the West ridge of Everest on the 1963 Everest expedition.

  • The South Tirol people are in the larger part german speaking people (Austrians). The region became a part of Italy after the the I. World War . German and Austrian armies defeated the Italian army,(Isonzo!) but the Italians had an agreement with the Allies. South Tirol is now an autonom region that belongs officially to Italy, but has a lot more rights they have fightet for over years.
