The Olympic torch has reached an amazing climax on it's journey around the world. Earlier today a Tibetan woman carried the torch the last few steps to the summit of Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, from the Chinese (Tibetan) base camp.
Once on top of the world, the team, outfitted in nationalistic red snow suits unfurled three flags. That of the People's Republic of China, Olympic Rings, and the Beijing 2008 logo flag.
Here's a video of the group celebrating at the summit. It's mostly in Chinese (not sure if its Mandarin or Cantonese) with some English at the end.
