The daredevil adventurers,
Leo Dickinson,
Ralph Mitchell and
Ramesh Chandra Tripathi, jumped from an altitude of
6,154 metres (20,000 feet) and landed at
Gorak Shep, a sandy plateau
5,165 metres above sea level.
"It was
not just Everest. I could see the whole panorama of fantastic mountains and it was just amazing," said Mr Dickinson, 62.
"You have got the mountains rushing past you. I just didn't want it to end.
"I had a
freefall for four seconds and in the
next three minutes I was already landing."
Mr Dickinson, a British documentary filmmaker, became the
first person to fly over Everest in a balloon, in 1991. He said he would begin the process to register the feat after getting back home.
