In this biography of the world's tallest mountain, we’ll learn about the birth of Everest in an ancient seabed and why it's still rising!
We'll find out exactly why high altitude is a problem and what it really does to the body. We’ll meet the mountaineering pioneers who raced to be the first to the summit, from heroes like Mallory and Irvine of the 1922 expedition, through to Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tensing who reached the summit in 1953. We'll look at some notable climbs and world records, as well as some of the darker stories from these adventures.
We’ll also meet the Sherpas, the local mountain people who continue to risk their lives many times on each expedition, and we’ll consider what makes them do it.
And, of course, we’ll discuss the environmental and economic impact all these expeditions have on the mountain and on Nepal.
We’ll even find out how to climb Everest from base camp to summit!
"Getting to the summit is optional. Getting down is mandatory."
