As a game ranger, Sibusiso Vilane learned a lot about body language and this knowledge would help him seize the skeptical view that the team of thirteen climbers had of him when they met for the first time at the Summit hotel in Kathmandu, October 2002. Until 1998, Sibusiso had never even seen a photograph of Everest. Did his determination waver at that point? Victory, he would learn, never comes free and easy! How did it all begin? Sibusiso Vilane had a dream of looking at the world from the top. Tune in to this edition of “Tam Tam Express” as we walk you through the journey of one man who wanted to climb Everest, not for himself but for the whole continent of Africa. Sibusiso Vilane wanted to open a new chapter in Africa’s history! Conquering Everest would not be the end of an adventure…..the goal was the seven Summits and it became an addiction. Tune in for more!
