La Conquête de l'Everest (The Conquest of Everest) est un film documentaire britannique réalisé par George Lowe en 1953. Ce film raconte l'histoire de la première expédition ayant réussi à vaincre le plus haut sommet du monde.
A Swiss expedition consisting of Raymond Lambert, Tenzing Norgay, Rene Aubert and Leon Flory attempted to climb via the South Col and the southeast ridge. After five days of effort, the team found a route through the icefall; they got past the crevasse that stymied the 1951 expedition by first descending 60 ft into it to a snow bridge and then used a precarious rope bridge to reach the other side. They were the first people to stand in the Western Cwm. On May 27, the four climbers started from their tents on the South Col, two teams of Lambert/Norgay and Aubert/Flory. Lambert/Norgay reached Camp VII first at 27,500 ft (8,400 m) followed by Aubert/Flory. The tent was too small for both teams and Aubert/Flory decided to return to the South Col.
