A British climber has set a world record by making a mobile phone call from the top of Mount Everest.  In the early hours of 21 May, Rod Baber made two calls from the mountain's north ridge. The first to an unknown, (I am guessing that it was a mini cab firm) and the second to his wife and kids.

In the first call he complained about the cold, and how much he was looking forward to going back to base station – real adrenaline fuelled stuff! What did he say in the call to the family…?   

"I've made it.. let's get married again!" 

"Next year, Tenerife?"

"Need help. Angry snow tigers…."

Or, 

"I think I left the iron on…."? 

We will probably never know, but one thing is for sure he could have at least pretended to be on 'Who wants to be a millionaire'.
