New Zealand mountaineer Peter Hillary was trekking towards Everest Base Camp when the 7.8 magnitude earthquake struck Nepal on Saturday, 25 April 2025. Almost 9,000 people died and more than 20,000 were injured. As the son of Mount Everest summiteer Sir Edmund Hillary, Peter said he had been trekking in the Himalayas from a young age and had experienced earthquakes before, but this was completely different. Ten years on, Hillary, who is also a Founding Director of the Australian Himalayan Foundation, spoke to SBS Nepali about the quake and relief actions that followed. - नेपालमा एक दशक अगि गोर्खा जिल्ला केन्द्रबिन्दु बनाएर झन्डै ९,००० जनाको मृत्यु हुने गरी गएको सात दशमलव आठ म्याग्निट्युडको भूकम्पमा २२,००० भन्दा बढी घाइते हुनुका साथै लाखौँ मानिसहरू प्रभावित भएका थिए। शनिवार, २५ एप्रिल २०१५ मा गएको उक्त महाभूकम्पको चपेटामा नेपाली लगायत विश्वका थुप्रै देशका मानिसहरू परेका थिए। भूकम्प जाँदा नेपालमा रहेका थुप्रै पर्यटकहरू मध्ये न्यु जिल्यान्डका चर्चित पर्वतारोही सर एडमन्ड हिलारीका छोरा पिटर हिलारी पनि एक थिए। नेपालका हिमाली क्षेत्रमा परोपकारी कामहरू गर्दै आएको गैर नाफामूलक संस्था अस्ट्रेलियन हिमालयन फाउन्डेसनका एक संस्थापक निर्देशक पनि रहेका पिटर हिलारीसँग उक्त दिन र त्यसपछिका घटनाहरूका बारेमा एसबीएस नेपालीले गरेको कुराकानी सुन्नुहोस्।

New Zealand beekeeper Sir Edmund Hillary and Nepalese sherpa Tenzing Norgay became the first team to summit Mount Everest on May 29, 1953. Their historic feat turned the pair into an international symbol of adventure, courage and teamwork. Joining Melissa for this special episode of Passport to Everywhere are the duo's sons, Peter Hillary and Jamling Tanzing Norgay, who have carried on their families' legacy. Peter Hillary is an author, motivational speaker, expedition leader and mountaineer, and he first ascended Everest in 1990. Since then, he's completed the Seven Summits, the highest mountains on each of the seven continents. Jamling Tenzing Norgay is a climber, mountain guide, author and motivational speaker. He became the star of the IMAX documentary Everest when he summited the mountain in 1996. While on location for a film shoot in Nepal for Indagare's partnership with Bank of America, the two spoke with Melissa and shared stories passed down from their fathers' daring expeditions. They reveal insights into their fathers' background: Tenzing grew up raising yaks and ran away from his village to answer what he describes as the “calling of the Mountain;” for Edmund “it was love at first sight” on a school trip in the outdoors. They explore inspiring lessons of leadership, the impact of tourism on Mount Everest and the work of their foundations that give back to Nepalese communities. Plus, tune in to discover firsthand accounts at Buckingham Palace, Jamling's dangerous experience while filming Everest and their advice for becoming a great climber. For more on the work of Peter Hillary and Jamling Tenzing Norgay, check out the Himalayan Trust and the Tenzing Norgay Sherpa Foundation.Follow Peter: instagram.com/_peterhillaryFollow Jamling: instagram.com/jamlingtenzingFollow IndagareWebsite: indagare.comInstagram: instagram.com/indagaretravelYoutube: youtube.com/@indagaretravelFollow Melissa on Instagram: instagram.com/indagarefounder

It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.- Sir Edmund Hillary

Today, joined by Dr Matt Slavin, we delve into the question: "Would you erase your trauma if you could?" Exploring both big and little traumas, we acknowledge their impact on shaping us. Trauma isn't just about life-threatening events but also repeated feelings of betrayal or neglect. Our experiences, good and bad, mold us, propelling us towards achievements or influencing our relationships. Trauma often dictates our choices and behaviors, affecting how we navigate life's challenges.Through stories like Sir Edmund Hillary's, we see how past wounds can drive us to remarkable feats. Yet, trauma can also trap us in toxic patterns, blurring our perception of reality and hindering growth. Acceptance becomes pivotal, acknowledging the past while embracing the present. It's about radical acceptance—recognizing what we cannot change and focusing on self-improvement.In a study, 99.9% of respondents, despite enduring severe traumas, opted not to erase them, understanding that doing so would alter their entire life's trajectory. It's a testament to the complexity of human experience, where trauma isn't solely a burden but also a catalyst for growth. By embracing our multifaceted selves and seeking love and safety, we embark on the healing journey, empowering ourselves to choose connections that nurture our well-being. Ultimately, we are observers of our lives, wielding the power to shape our narratives and find solace in love and acceptance.Contact details for Matt: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drmattslavin/Support the showSet yourself up for relationship success and get the best marriage advice.

We then discuss a runout episode featuring penguins, helmets, and pints of cows milk.

There's something incredibly humbling about standing at the foot of the world's tallest peak, feeling the bite of the cold Himalayan air and knowing you've walked the same path as legends. We felt that awe with Rob Bruce of Got to Get Out, who joined us to recount tales of guiding groups through the trials of Everest Base Camp during winter's sting. His stories aren't just about the physical endurance required to brave such extreme conditions, but also about the mental fortitude that comes from pushing past boundaries and emerging, transformed on the other side. This episode gives an insider's look into the life-altering effects these journeys have on those who dare, as well as the reverence for Sir Edmund Hillary's legacy. Rob tells us how he traded boardroom buzzers for the serene silence of snowy peaks, and how the Sherpa people's culture and heritage are as integral to the Everest experience as the climb itself.  We also discuss the importance of fostering a love for the outdoors in children and the role that modern technology plays in shaping—or inhibiting—the spirit of exploration. So join us for this soul-stirring conversation that celebrates the power of adventure to redefine our limits and the enduring call of the wild that beckons us.  https://www.facebook.com/gottogetout See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's 70 years since one of the most extraordinary achievements occurred. This accomplishment is spoken of, remembered, and often used as the gauge of success. And so, it is no surprise that the name of this one man is carved indelibly into history. In his home country, he's considered a hero and has been voted the most admired person in the nation. He even has a commemorative five-stamp series to honour his status and achievements. He is the best-known New Zealander in the world. But it's not just his achievement as a mountaineer, the conqueror of Mount Everest, the first man, along with Tenzing Norgay to climb to the top of the highest mountain in the world that he is honoured. It's because Edmund Hillary showed us how an ordinary life can become a truly extraordinary one. He has shown us that greatness is possible.

Why climb Mount Everest? " Because it's there". The words of explorer George Mallory in New York in 1922. But was he the first person to reach the summit of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, 29 years before Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay? Unique diaries from Mallory's mission, written by Irishman Richard Hingston, may just shed some new light on this question (2023) Narrated by Marc McMenamin.

Show Notes: The book, The Soul's Code, offers a way to see thru children's misbehaviors for the deeper meaning behind them, i.e., see the oak tree when all you have in front of you is an acorn. Too many kids get mislabeled & misdiagnosed because our lens is so short-term oriented; also the medical & psychological communities are so pathology & negative & deficit focused. Children's behaviors reveal something positive about the child, instead of seeing developmental problems, look for the beauty & meaning in what you see and then love and accept your kids for who they are. Dr. Jordan shares many stories of his patients and eminent people to illustrate how an important part of our job as parents is to create an environment for children's soul and destiny to flourish. This includes stories about Gandhi, Picasso, pioneering geneticist Barbara McClintock, Woody Allen, Painter Benjamin West, architect Frank Lloyd Wright, climber Sir Edmund Hillary, primatologists Jane Goodall and Brute Mary Galdikas, and actress Betty Davis.

Today, I share five EPIC Productivity Fails that significantly impacted my ability to achieve my goals, succeed with my strategic priorities, effectively manage my time and energy or be the person I preferred to be. We are exploring conversations around what hasn't worked, because there are beautiful lessons from what failed, to help us shape what will work! I love when Sir Edmund Hillary says “it is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves”, because sometimes, we are the ones standing in our own way. Take some time to think of your own Productivity Fails, and see ways you can outgrow your former self. Be Better, Do Better!

While you were trekking up the snow-covered mountains of the Himalayas, you saw a large footprint you couldn't explain... you heard calls that echoed across the peaks... maybe it's a sign of oxygen deprivation, maybe it's a sign of the abominable snowman... the legendary Yeti!

This week Beau and Carl chat about the various attempts over the years to climb Mount Everest. From George Mallory and Andrew Irvine's first attempts in the 1920's, to Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay's ultimately successful expedition in 1953, as well as other famous tales from the mountain and what the experience is like in the present day.

On this Classic episode of The Sofa King Podcast, we climb the Mount Everest of podcast topics to look for the tales and truths behind the Yeti. The Yeti, the Abominable Snowman, the Mi-Go, the Yeren; these are all apparently the same creature: a humanoid beast with feet like a man (smaller than a “Bigfoot”) who has been seen in the Himalayan mountains for centuries. Their gods and mythology tie back to this creature, and sightings and folk lore amount local Sherpas are vibrant and updated. So why should anyone care about a mythological beast called a Yeti? Well, for one thing, a lot of pretty high rolling explorers saw them, claimed to saw them, or brought back evidence of them. Sir Edmund Hillary went on multiple expeditions to find this creature and even brought back evidence. Over the past hundred years, public calls have gone out to find proof. From oil millionaire Tom Slick to a British newspaper and even Oxford University, they all sent people or paid for evidence surrounding this. The Chinese government even has an official department that is dedicated to looking for the Wild Man of China. So, with all of this research and folklore, what has been found? Well, a lot of tracks that either come from bears or can't be identified. DNA that often matches mountain creatures but sometimes comes back as a mystery. Sometimes, it even came back as prehistoric bears from the Pleistocene era. What is the difference between a Bigfoot and a Yeti? Why is a Yeti considered to be more dangerous? Why did the actor Jimmy Stewart help smuggle a Yeti hand out of Tibet and into London? Listen, laugh, learn.   Jimmy Steward, Relic Hunter: https://www.atlasobscura.com/articles/saga-of-the-yeti-hand

Mt Everest is a death trap. Everything about the mountain is designed to kill you. So why are so many people going up there? Why do we ignore the very real and very dangerous narratives that are right in our face.

29 years before Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay summited Everest, George Mallory and Andrew Irvine attempted the same. They made one last attempt but tragedy struck and they never made it back down the mountain - for many years neither of their bodies were found and when one was, it only provided more questions than answers. Did they make it?

What would compel someone, particularly a middle aged, suburban Dad who had never before climbed a mountain, to fly to Kathmandu and hike 85 miles to Mt. Everest Base Camp, at an altitude of nearly 20,000 feet?

You'll get to know Jeremy Starcher – an ordinary guy who decided to do something extraordinary – and along the way you'll learn why Sherpa's are some of the world's best leaders, what it's like to fly into the world's most dangerous airport, what the locals drink in Nepal, and why it's never too late to do something amazing.
