Lakpa to Babu: "Dude, this is COOL."
Best of ExplorersWeb 2011 Awards: Everest paraglide

One couldn't fly, the other didn't climb: it was stealth, it was shoestring, it was crazy, but they did it. Dark horses Babu Sunuwar, 28, and Lakpa Tshering Sherpa, 35, summited Everest on May 21st and broke the World Record of Altitude in Paragliding.
