Khoo Swee Chiow is the first Southeast Asian and fourth in the world to complete the Adventure Grand Slam: The North and South Poles and the Seven Summits. His is an unlikely story. Plagued by a fear of heights during childhood, Swee Chiows love for adventure would see him eventually standing at the top of the roof of the world, Mount Everest. His first key success, Africas Mount Kilimanjaro, fuelled his dreams and fired his imagination. Despite many near-death experiences, the extreme cold, financial and physical distress, severe loneliness, tears and failures, his iron will and sheer determination kept him going until he achieved his goals. This is the inspiring story of the real Khoo Swee Chiow, the story behind the headlines.
