while I admire your youthful exuberance, he is hardly an obscure person. The internet will furnish you with all the information you need

I didn't realise climbing was the sort of sport that had legends,
But then, I guess I know names of famous car restorers.

He may not be obscure if you're into climbing
but unfortunately that's several places below crocheting on my list of things I don't give a fuck about.

Yeah, he's an army chap. Nicked some explosives to help his friend demolish a garden wall.
Apparently he wandered around the pole a bit, too. My grandpa thought he was a smashing chap.

Never heard of this other wanker, though.

Your ignorance does not diminish Chris Bonnington's achiviements/fame.

It will when I tweet him. That'll really show him who's boss!

He is way to tough to tweet. Like me.

(I helped save b3ta! MEATSNAKE Richard Hammond, Thu 9 Jan 2014, 13:11, Reply)
It does seem that he couldnt
lead an expedition without at least 1 person dying
