Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay Sherpa became the first team to summit Mount Everest on May 29, 1953. Their historic feat turned the pair into an international symbol of adventure, courage and teamwork. Joining Melissa for this special episode of Passport to Everywhere are the duo’s sons, Peter Hillary and Jamling Tanzing Norgay, who have carried on their families’ legacy. Peter Hillary is an author, motivational speaker, expedition leader and mountaineer, and he first ascended Everest in 1990. Since then, he’s completed the Seven Summits, the highest mountains on each of the seven continents. Jamling Tenzing Norgay is a climber, mountain guide, author and motivational speaker. He became the star of the IMAX documentary Everest when he summited the mountain in 1996.

While on location for a film shoot in Nepal for Indagare’s partnership with Bank of America, the two spoke with Melissa and shared stories passed down from their fathers’ daring expeditions. They reveal insights into their fathers’ background: Tenzing grew up raising yaks and ran away from his village to answer what he describes as the “calling of the Mountain;” for Edmund “it was love at first sight” on a school trip in the outdoors. They explore inspiring lessons of leadership, the impact of tourism on Mount Everest and the work of their foundations that give back to Nepalese communities. Plus, tune in to discover firsthand accounts at Buckingham Palace, Jamling’s dangerous experience while filming Everest and their advice for becoming a great climber.
