The Sid Perou Story - Martin "Basher" Baines.

This video was made by my good friend Martin (Basher) Baines before I left the UK in 1971 to set up a home in Thailand. Having not viewed it for several years, I revisited it as Basher reminded me that the audio interview regarding the Pierre Saint Martin filming from Dave Gill, which was the basis of a piece I put together last week, came from his video. I publish his film here with his permission to reach the wider audience that it deserves.

What a fabulous shot @31:30, everyone is staggered climbing up the incline. It's pitch black, save for the climbers' torch.
