Dale Abenojar, as i recall the event wasn't about a Filipino will finally summit Mt. Everest but instead a race between the two big TV networks of the PH. Both sponsoring their own climbers. Unfortunately for the networks, Dale made it first before they could claim Mt. Everest for their tv bosses and of course to the shabby viewers.
