Brian Dickinson (climber)
Brian Dickinson (born June 16, 1974) is a climber who soloed the summit of Mount Everest on May 15, 2011,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.himalayandatabase.com/2011%20Season%20Lists/2011%20Spring%20A8.html )〕 after his Sherpa mountain guide became ill and went back down to high camp (South Col, 26,000'). After taking some pictures and making a radio call, Brian began his descent but within a few feet he became snow blind. His vision did not fully return for over a month. His descent to high camp from the summit took over seven hours, instead of the expected two to three hours. Brian ran out of oxygen on his descent but made it down to the South Col where his guide met him to help him back to his tent. Brian holds the record for the highest solo blind descent.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://snovalleystar.com/2014/09/04/blind-descent-climbing-down-everest-alone )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://snovalleystar.com/2011/06/22/climbers-barely-avert-mount-everest-disaster )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cbn.com/tv/2201730684001 )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.webex.com/webinars/Surviving-Mt-Everest-Snow-Blind-Breathless-and-Determined )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://blogs.cisco.com/home/a-story-of-survival-ciscos-brian-dickinson-conquered-mt-everest )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.valleyrecord.com/sports/124315493.html )〕
