The people of Nepal have lost a great friend today.

Yeh, I don't think he was Nepalese, but RIP. Good kid.

RIP, Sir Edmund Hillary KG ONZ KBE.

oh and billy

He devoted all of his life to helping the Sherpa people of Nepal through the Himalayan trust, which he founded and to which he had given much of his time and energy. Through his efforts he had succeeded in building many schools and hospitals in this remote region of the Himalayas. He was the Honorary President of the American Himalayan Foundation, a United States non-profit body that helps improve the ecology and living conditions in the Himalayas.
