In life, there’s badass…and then there’s Kami Rita Sherpa-level badass. At the age of 52, the Nepal native has climbed Mt. Everest 26 times. In May of 2018, Sherpa broke the record for most climbs to the summit with his 22nd journey. Then, in 2019, he broke that record two more times. In 2020, climbing season was cancelled, but he made up for it by in 2021 with another go. Then, last Saturday, he did it again…for number 26. At this point, he’s just showing up…but if you could, wouldn’t you?
