I hope he does his research, it's not something to tackle lightly obviously! Tim Macartney-Snape is a Patron of the World Transformation Movement, an Australian who began his life in Africa and became the first to climb Mt. Everest from sea level. He is well worth reading about - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Macartney-Snape - as his life is an inspirational one especially his interest in philosophical ventures like that of Jeremy Griffith's and his work with the Fred Hollows Foundation.
