who was the first to climb mount everest?

Answer 1

Tenzing Norgay pulled Edmund Hillary up on a rope.

Answer 2

don't know why people keep on believing that Sir Edmund Hillary was the first person to reach Mount Everest's top. He's English (NZ) by the way. I believe that there are many Nepali or Chinese who have conquered the Everest long before him. It's such a biased fact, just because he's a European/Caucasian. He might be the first 'recorded' man to conquer Everest, but certainly not the first person ever to climb Everest.

Answer 3

George Everest, who went up, to measure the height of the peak. He went up and came back, much before Sir Edmund Hillary and his gang went up. It was after his climb and disclosures, the peak was named Mount Everest. This is genuine information.

Since George Everest did not take the permission of the British Queen to climb the peak, it was termed as illegal and unofficial. More over, there were 3 casualties enroute.(British) He also did not take photographs of the peak. the team had 14 climbers, only 8 made it to the summit. He had taken height measuring instruments for measurment. He was basically a Geological Surveyor of the British Empire and an adventure sportsman.

Answer 4

Probably some guy in ancient history who thought that he could reach heaven or the like before deciding that it was way too cold to be doing that. I suppose that he didn't too far up the mountain.

The first to documentedly climb all the way to the very top were Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary in 1953. George Mallory and Andrew Irvine may have reached the summit in 1924, but as they died on the mountain not far from the summit, it's difficult to determine if they died on the way up or on the way back down.

Answer 6

Tenzing Norgay admitted that Sir Edmund Hillary of New Zealand had put his foot on the summit first. Naturally being the taller of the two, the Kiwi outpaced the Sherpa who figures among the 'also rans'.
