Mount Everest is the biggest mountain in the world. The first person to climb it was the New Zealander Edmund Hillary. But the first person to ski down Everest was a Slovene: went down the entire mountain. And he didn’t stop there. He was the first man to ski down the highest mountains on each of the seven continents. No doubt it was a long way down on all of them.
