I've read all manner of Disney history books but never seen so much insight and behind the scenes stories about the Matterhorn climbers. It's great to hear the truth because someday I'm sure I'll hear someone spin a tale about "A guy actually died climbing the Matterhorn" and I'll finally be armed with "No, it was just a stunt." I'm so used to running into half-truths in regards to Disney. <br /><br />When sir Hillary starts shaking hands, he keeps it there a while for the camera, doesn't he?

My thanks to Dave and Richard Chambers. <br /><br />I have to comment on Sir Edmund's attire in the photos - tie and jacket! Of course he would dress like that. He was both a celebrity and a gentleman.
