U.S. and Hong Kong climbers set new records on Mount Everest
On Sunday, Arthur Muir, 75, from the United States became the oldest American to climb Mount Everest, which stands at 8,848.86-metres (29,031 feet). Additionally, Tsang Yin-Hung, 45, from Hong Kong achieved the summit in less than 26 hours, the quickest time ever recorded for a female climber. This was a remarkable feat, as most climbers take several days to reach the peak from the base camp.0
