Story 80
Edmund Hillary - I met Edmund Hillary when I was about 7 years old. My dad was working in New Zealand and I spent a few years there. My uncle had a property near to Edmund Hillary's and one day I was in the passenger seat of a 4 wheel drive and my uncle stopped at Hillary's place on the way to his. They made some small talk outside while I stayed inside the Land Rover, reading a comic book. My uncle introduced me to Hillary, telling me he was quite famous. I said hello then went back to reading the comic book without a second thought. If Edmund Hillary had in fact been Spiderman - I would have paid more attention at the time. I had no real idea really who he was at the time.
