It is not the mountain you conquer, but your own self.
Edmund Hillary
Edmund Hillary was a New Zealand mountaineer. Together with the Nepalese mountaineer Tenzing Norgay, a Sherpa, he managed the first ascent of Mount Everest, the highest mountain on earth, on 29 May 1953.
He founded the Himalayan Trust in the 1960s to support the Nepalese Sherpas. As a result, hospitals and schools were built in the Nepalese Khumbu region near Everest, home of the Sherpas. Hillary himself described this help as the most important part of his life.
He died of a heart attack on January 11, 2008 in a hospital in Auckland. Hillary received a state funeral, 600 guests attended the funeral in St. Mary's Cathedral in Auckland. The coffin was wrapped in the New Zealand state flag and decorated with the ice axe Hillary had used to climb Mount Everest.

Nicht der Berg ist es, den man bezwingt, sondern das eigene Ich.
Edmund Hillary
Edmund Hillary war ein neuseeländischer Bergsteiger. Zusammen mit dem nepalesischen Bergsteiger Tenzing Norgay, einem Sherpa, gelang ihm am 29. Mai 1953 die Erstbesteigung des Mount Everest, des höchsten Berges der Erde.
Er rief in den 1960er Jahren den Himalayan Trust zur Unterstützung der nepalesischen Sherpas ins Leben. In der Folge konnten Krankenhäuser und Schulen in der nepalischen Khumbu-Region nahe dem Everest, der Heimat der Sherpas, gebaut werden. Hillary bezeichnete diese Hilfe selbst als den wichtigsten Teil seines Lebens.
Er verstarb am 11. Januar 2008 in einem Krankenhaus in Auckland an einem Herzanfall. Hillary erhielt ein Staatsbegräbnis, 600 Gäste nahmen an der Trauerfeier in der St. Marys-Kathedrale von Auckland teil. Der Sarg wurde in die neuseeländische Staatsflagge gehüllt und mit dem Eispickel, welchen Hillary beim Aufstieg des Mount Everest genutzt hatte, geschmückt.
