,,, the Hunt Everest expedition? There's as much credibility to that ....
Am I mistaken?
It was quite a while ago, after all.
Was another, perhaps parallel, New Zealand expedition being conducted at the same time Hunt's Team was on the mountain? [And its team-member, New Zealander, Ed Rhodham Hillary, was making it to the summit?]

,,, oh, I thought you knew for certain what you were talking about. Within the last year this was revisited as there has been a lot of doubt since 1953. Allow me to clarify the findings for you. It turns out the Brits weren't the first, so Ed can still stay proudly on our $NZ5 notes.
