British explorer Daniel Hughes made the first video call to the BBC from the peak of Mount Everest early Monday morning with an HTC One smartphone.  Hughes is an all-around champ not just for scaling 8,848 meters of solid mountain, but for attempting to raise a targeted £1 million for Comic Relief in the process (donate here).  While Hughes (and presumably the folks over at HTC One) are stoked, the Nepalese government is not amused.

Cue to 1:44 for some excellent panning and breathing.
