Sir Edmund Hillary is most Famous for being the first to successfully fight the conditions on Everest in order to reach the summit. Even though he was accompanied by Sherpa man Tenzing Norgay, Ed has accomplished many other things witch he was more proud of, like setting up schools and health clinics in Nepal, Tenzings homeland. Sir Edmund Hillary was knighted when he arrived back from Nepal.

He also went to the South Pole, which was a great a complishment for and many of great pleasures.

I know that he was from Auckland New Zealand and he was the first to climb the highest mountain in the world, Mt Everest in Nepal along with Tenzing Norgay, a Nepalese mountaineer, but does anyone know what else he has done??
