How we source these
Public holidays are taken from official government sources for each country and cover national holidays only. The United States, Canada and Australia all have significant state and provincial holidays that are not shown, and India’s system of state, optional and restricted holidays means only three days are observed nationwide. Where a government has not yet published a year, we say so rather than guess. Always check the official source for the country concerned rather than relying on this alone.
May 29th through history
Fifteen minutes on the summit of Everest
Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay stood on the summit of Everest at about half past eleven in the morning of May 29th 1953. They had roughly fifteen minutes there. Hillary photographed Tenzing holding his ice axe with four flags on it; Tenzing buried a small offering of sweets and a pencil in the snow. There is no photograph of Hillary at the top, because Tenzing had never used a camera and the summit was not the place to learn.
They were John Hunt’s second pair. Tom Bourdillon and Charles Evans had reached the South Summit three days earlier, some three hundred feet below the top, and turned back with a failing oxygen set — the harder decision of the two, taken with the top in sight. London heard nothing of any of it until the eve of the coronation.
Charles II entered London on May 29th 1660, his thirtieth birthday, to bells, wine in the conduits and a procession that John Evelyn reckoned took seven hours to pass. The day was kept for two centuries as Oak Apple Day, after the tree he had hidden in at Boscobel.
Thirty-nine people died at the Heysel Stadium in Brussels on May 29th 1985, before the European Cup final, and English clubs were banned from European competition for five years.
Born on May 29th: star sign, birthstone and birth flower
Charles II and Bob Hope — both named above — share this star sign with everyone else born in the same window.
Star sign
Gemini — an Air sign ruled by Mercury, symbolised by the Twins.
Birthstone
Emerald for May.
Birth flower
Lily of the Valley (primary), also Hawthorn — most commonly cited sources agree on lily of the valley as the main May flower.
None of this is settled fact in the way the history above is — zodiac dates, birthstones and birth flowers are conventions rather than laws, and different sources hedge them slightly differently. The birthstone is the most standardised of the three (set by the trade in 1912 and revised since); the birth flower is the least, resting on Victorian tradition rather than any governing body.
