Read the scenario below that describes the background to the practical tasks you are required to perform. SCENARIO Former Navy rescue swimmer Brian Dickinson was roughly 1 000 feet (305m) from the summit of Mount Everest – also known as the death zone – when his Sherpa, Pasang, became ill and had to turn back. Four hours later, Brian solo summited the highest peak in the world. But the celebration was short lived. Suddenly, without warning, his vision became blurry, his eyes started to burn and within seconds, he was rendered almost completely blind. All alone at 29 035 feet, low on oxygen, and unable to see, Brian was forced to inch his way back down the mountain.
