On 30 May 2003, at 11.15am, South African Sean Wisedale reached the summit of the highest of all mountains - Mount Everest, towering over the earth at 8850m. It was, understandably, an emotional moment of celebration and thanksgiving. The Discovery Everest team had struggled for two months against the worst weather seen on the mountain in decades - and was finally forced to admit defeat; however, a series of circumstances that could not have been planned-for, gave Sean an unexpected chance to try just once more – and the rest, as they say, is history!
