A true legend. R.I.P.
Don't forget who appears in the iconic photo at the top of Everest either - Sherpa Tensing. Lesser men would have insisted on the camera being pointed at them after such an achievement.
Sir John Harvey-Jones (RIP) died yesterday too.

He did but unfortunately Sherpa Tensing had never seen a camera before and had no idea how to use it (and I imagine that after climbing everest the last thing Hillary wanted to do was give him a camera lesson )

He was the type of person the honours system was created for, not the greedy self-serving civil servants or pop stars who receive them these days. Sir Elton John for fucks sake!!

Good bye. You walked up and down hills and got medals for it. At least you weren't Australian. Have fun where ever you are.
