MY MOUNT EVEREST EXPERIENCE AS SEEN BY THE MEDIA, AND OTHER EVEREST STORIES
My death and my survival were identified as newsworthy by the international media even before I left the base camp in Tibet for Kathmandu. Interest continues three years later, as evidenced by more magazine articles and appearances in TV segments about high altitude physiology and the launch of a spectacular book of photographs of (among other places) the first ascent of Mount Everest in 1953. A new burst of publicity came with my five week promotional tour of DEAD LUCKY in North America, the interest piqued by the screening of LEFT FOR DEAD: MIRACLE ON EVEREST, on the National Geographic Channel on May 20. DEAD LUCKY was reviewed on NBC's Today show.
