Mark Horrell reviews the film Nawang Gombu: Heart of a Tiger...
When I watched the 46-minute documentary Nawang Gombu: Heart of a Tiger on YouTube, it had only been watched 151 times before me. This is ridiculous, given that another one of a man opening a beer bottle with a chainsaw had been watched 3,234,053 times (one more than that after you just Googled it).
I've mentioned Nawang Gombu previously. He was the nephew of Tenzing Norgay, and one of my chosen ten great Sherpa mountaineers. Nawang Gombu: Heart of a Tiger has flaws as far as documentaries go, but it deserves to be watched more widely because of its subject matter.
