Well, Hillary led New Zealanders for future Everest climbing.
I expect that Edmund Hillary's worst moment in his life is when his wife and daughter was killed in a plane crash in 1975.
what was hillarys tragedy and how did it change his life
Edmund Hillary was born in Auckland, Dominion of New Zealand, on 20 July 1919 to proud parents Percival Augustus Hillary and Gertrude Hillary. He went on to spend most of his life living in Auckland.
Edmund Hillary's greatest moment would be being the first person to reach the summit of Mount Everest in 1953.
The cast of A Life of My Choice - 1999 includes: Edmund Hillary as Hillary, Sir Edmund Michael Joseph Carr as Sir Wilfred Thessiger Wilfred Thesiger as Thesiger, Sir Wilfred

Sir Edmund Hillary's second wife was named June Hillary. They married in 1975, after he was previously married to his first wife, Louise. June was a supportive partner in his later life, and they remained together until his passing in 2008.
In 1975 while en route to join Edmund Hillary in the village of Phaphlu, where he was helping to build a hospital, Edmund's wife Louise and daughter Belinda were killed in a plane crash near Kathmandu airport shortly after take-off. Edmund became very depressed and it was said to be his part of his life.

Amongst many life long achievements he was the first to scale Mt Everest
Hillary, more popularly referred to as Sir Ed, rose to fame in 1953 as the first man to summit Mount Everest, along with Sherpa Tenzing Norgay. But the former beekeeper also left his mark in the Antarctic, helping to establish New Zealand's Scott Base on Ross Island in 1957 and leading the first overland vehicle traverse to the South Pole in 1958.
