So this is a documentary my friends and I made for a program called National History Day (www.nhd.org) on Tenzing Norgay in '09. The theme was "Individuals in History." The program is a ton of fun for anybody who's thinking about starting a project. I hope you enjoy the video.

" The most successful people were once the most successful failures. Part of the process of reaching success is overcoming obstacles that lead to triumph. Never give UP, Never lose sight, and Never stop trying! What separates us from our goal is just time. It will all happen if we believe and want it bad enough" -Adrian Sanoguel
A plane taking off the the airport in Lukla, Nepal, which some claim to be the most dangerous airport in the world. This is the airport people fly into to start their treks to Everest or many of the surrounding Himalayan peaks. For more info about Lukla and the hike to Everest visit blog.thecheaproute.com From Wikipedia... Tenzing-Hillary Airport (IATA: LUA, ICAO: VNLK), also known as Lukla Airport, is a small airport in the town of Lukla, in Khumbu, Solukhumbu district, Sagarmatha zone, eastern Nepal. In January 2008, the airport was renamed in honor of Sir Edmund Hillary and Sherpa Tenzing Norgay, the first persons to reach the summit of Mount Everest and also to mark their efforts in the construction of this airport. The surrounding terrain, thin air, highly changeable weather and the airport's short, sloping runway make it one of the most challenging landings in the world. The History Channel program Most Extreme Airports ranked it as the "most extreme" airport in the world.
The runway is on a 12% incline to help slow the planes as the runway is only 527 meters long!!

Presently, Tenzing is working on a project called fusion art. The work depicts and comments on the idea of wholeness and completeness. The underlying principle of fusion art is triggered by the endless human conflicts and struggles which are arguably due to the lack of understanding and participation towards the idea of oneness. The paintings incorporate mythical emblems, symbols and along with that it encompasses the contemporary objects yet, leaving the subjects as universal as possible. The elements in the paintings don't compromise or co-exist with one another they rather fuse to emphasize the aestheticism of oneness. His works attempt to bring viewers to an implicit agreement to the sight and the ideas of fusionism. www.rigdolfinearts.com

His Holiness the Dalai Lama remembers Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay in a speech at the CBS Arena, Christchurch, New Zealand on 8 June 2011. HH met friends and families of those who lost loved ones in February 2011 earthquake then was welcomed on stage by representatives of Ngai Tahu (the main South Island iwi) and Bishop Victoria of the Anglican Diocese of Christchurch. As always, HH emphasised the importance of trust, peace, compassion, friendship and taking responsbility for our own behaviours and attitudes if we want to live happy lives and solve the problems in the world. While talking at length about sadness and tragedy, he was also pragmatic - things happen, it's a fact, don't worry worry worry. In particular, earthquakes, tsunamis etc happen all over the world every day. The world is not a safe place but we can't move to the moon or further into space, so we must plan for disasters, accept them and get on with living. He also said we can realise that the situation in Japan after its earthquake, and in Haiti, were far worse than in Christchurch so things are not so bad for us really. Suggestions were offered for the rebuilding of Christchurch including low-rise buildings, moving residential areas from badly damaged land, being positive, getting involved and being helpful - especially at community level, voting differently at the next elections if we are not happy what our elected politicians - locally and nationally - are doing(!), and getting started on the <b>...</b>

On April 8, 2008, Team Tibet organized a mass mobilization of Tibet supporters from all over the US in the San Francisco Bay Area. Thousands gathered at the SF United Nations Plaza to protest the Beijing Olympics Torch Relay through San Francisco, the only stop for the Olympic Torch Relay in North America. The 08 Torch Relay has been met with massive protests in cities and countries all over the world including Greece, London, Paris, Japan, South Korea, and others. China plans to take the Olympic Torch Relay through Lhasa, Tibet, where the Chinese Government continues to torture hundreds of political prisoners, mostly monks and nuns whose only "crime" was to shout "Free Tibet." The recent crackdown in Tibet that began on March 14th has resulted in the deaths of more than 200 Tibetans and the imprisonment or disappearance of over 5000 Tibetans. The Chinese Military's unjust action against peaceful demonstrators was in direct violation of China's promise to improve the human rights situation in Tibet before the start of the Beijing Olympics.
