We’ve only gone and done it. The Guinness book of records out today. Admittedly the last page along with the longest lived tapier and the largest plane 🤣🤣🤣, but anyone who grew up with Noris McWhirter, Roy Castle… instagram.com/p/B2FKf4PFT9a/…

#Everest; sometimes despite the incredible views and vista there is personal work and admin to be done. Before rotation 2 - kit check with all climbing / H-altitude kit, and a double check for the @65degnorth team. @RoyalMarines @theRMcharity @InmarsatGlobal @MousCase @RGS_IBG

Everest; the notorious Khumbu Icefall was certainly a test of both physical and mental resolve. The @65degnorth team proved once again anything is possible. We are currently just above 21’000ft at the entrance to the Western Cwm @theRMcharity - huge thanks to @InmarsatGlobal
