Oldest climber to sumit Mt Everest



Katsusuke Yanagisawa (known in camp as Yanagi) is a 71-year-old retired junior high school teacher from central Japan. Yanagi scaled the 8,850m (29,035ft) Himalayan peak, breaking the record set by a 70-year-old Japanese man in May 2006.

This guy is incredible and my inspiritation for when I am at that age.
