Four-year-old Zara Shifra from the Czech Republic became the youngest climber in the world to reach Everest Base Camp. The girl climbed to a height of 5 300 meters above sea level with her parents and seven-year-old brother. This is reported by daily.afisha.ru.
Zara trained from an early age; last year she walked more than 2 200 kilometers through the jungle. The girl never bathes in warm water; sometimes she adds ice to it. Thanks to careful acclimatization, her blood oxygen saturation did not drop below 90%. The record that the girl broke previously belonged to a five-year-old boy from India.
The total length of the Shifra family's route there and back was about 270 kilometers.
In 2023, Nepal-born and British Army veteran Hari Budha Magar became the first leg amputee to climb Everest.
