Ed Viesturs has only been so lucky that he still can survive! There are many more mountain-climbers who face a lot more challenges but they have not been as lucky as Ed Viesturs!

[@ArmaNilam]

Great man

Michael Jordan is the Ed Viesturs of basketball.

[@hensolo3262]

A lot of people are unaware of the fact that Ed Viesturs accompanied me, Luke, Leia and Chewie in liberating the galaxy from the empire a long time ago.

[@Leira6267]
