Yes of course it was , because it was the 1st thoroughly documented & internally recognised feat of mountaineering.
Sir Edmund Percival Hillary, (20 July 1919 - 11 January 2008) was a New Zealand mountaineer and explorer. On 29 May 1953 at the age of 33, he and Sherpa mountaineer Tenzing Norgay became the first climbers known to have reached the summit of Mount Everest. Previous to this , mountaineers had speculated or supposed as to who had reached the peak of mount Everest , so this was an undeniable first !
