📃 Оригинальное описание:
A Malaysian climber has been rescued from the slopes of Mount Everest during a “very rare” high altitude rescue.
The man, who was spotted clinging to a rope and shivering from extreme cold, was carried down the mountain on the backs of Nepali sherpas from the so-called “death zone” where temperatures can dip below minus 30 degrees C (-86F). or lower.
Gelje Sherpa, 30, was guiding a Chinese client to the 29,032 feet (8,849 metre) Everest summit on May 18 when he saw the Malaysian climber, who has not been named.
Video footage showed the moment the stricken climber was found in the dark, illuminated only by Gelje’s head torch.
Gelje hauled him 1,900 feet (600 metres) down from the Balcony area to the South Col, over a period of about six hours, where Nima Tahi Sherpa, another guide, joined the rescue.
