Just look at this as a magnificent feat of Olympic proportions, hats off to the climbers.
A Chinese mountaineering team took the Olympic flame to the top of the world Thursday Mount Everest climbers could be heard struggling for breath in a live television broadcast as five torchbearers each shuffled a few feet before passing on the flame to the next person. A colorful Tibetan prayer flag lined the path and fluttered in the wind.
The final torchbearer, a Tibetan woman named Cering Wangmo, stood silently on the peak with her torch while other team members unfurled small Chinese and Olympic flags.
Cering Wangmo, holds the torch at the peak of the mountain on Thursday morning.
