NBC News' Willie Geist will serve as host
and will be joined by The Weather
Channel's meteorologist Jim Cantore, who
will track the mountain's highly
unpredictable weather conditions. They'll
be based at a studio in New York.
Kyle Martino of NBC Sports and Chris
Jacobs of Discovery and Velocity will
deliver on-the-ground updates at Everest
Base Camp.
Leading up to the event, Discovery is
planning to air five nights of live programs
from Everest titled Everest: Live From
Base Camp at 11 p.m. ET and simulcast
on Science Channel and Discovery en

The May 11 live broadcast hopes to
capture the global social media
conversation of the jump in new ways by
looking at real-time data and reporting on
who's watching, in what countries and
what they're saying to support Ogywn in
his trek.
Live cameras will also be in place at
Everest Base Camp that can be viewed

Which is pretty amazing considering how hard it is just to climb it.....and with how unpredictable the weather is there.

This got cancelled btw.....evidently, an avalanche killed some Sherpas and Discovery pulled the plug
