A 77-year-old man reached the top of Mount Everest on Sunday, becoming the oldest person to reach the top of the highest mountain in the world.
The Nepalese climber, Min Bahadur Sherhan is in good health and reached base camp today.
Another Nepalese, Appa Sherpa reached the summit for the 18th time, setting a new world record.
The 8,848m high mountain as been scaled more then 3,000 times since it was first conquered by Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay, in 1953.
And saying that I have even problems getting up the stairs to the 9th floor!!
