Double amputee who his lost his feet climbing Everest 43 years ago finally reaches summit
It was 1975, and Boyu was headed up the mountain with a Chinese national mountaineering team. They had made it to 8,600 meters (about 28,215 feet), but that’s when a nasty winter storm set in. For two days and three nights the team endured subzero temperatures, made worse for Boyu, who decided to loan his sleeping bag to a fellow climber who had fallen ill.
