A mountaineer who was expelled from Everest camps after forging a photo on the world’s highest mountain, managed to climb there really because he wanted to “challenge himself”.
Singh Yadav had claimed to have reached the 8,849-meter high in the 2016 climb.
But the images provided by the 26-year-old were proven to have been modified and the authorities in Nepal canceled the recognition of the achievement.
Yadav and two other climbers were then given a six-year exemption and this year was the first time he was allowed to retake the climb.
“Everest is a dream for all of us, but for me there have been many allusions so I had to show myself and climb,” Yadav told AFP.
He says he had reached the top but the head of the expedition had changed the images he posted on social media, and consequently lost official recognition.
So as soon as he was allowed to return, for seven days he managed to climb up and record many photos and videos proving his achievement.
“We gave him the certificate after he gave us enough evidence to climb Mount Everest,” said Nepal tourism official Bishma Battrai.
Climbing Mount Everest is the greatest achievement in the mountaineering profession, with which many have continued to teach others by speaking and writing motivational books.
The current system of attestation of achievement is images and evidence from group and camp leaders, but false claims have been numerous.
