Web Desk, June 26, 2023: Known Pakistani mountaineer Sajid Sadpara has successfully ascended Nanga Parbat, the ninth-highest peak, without using the supplementary oxygen.
The climber, who had already conquered the six tallest summits without using artificial oxygen, confirmed the achievement on his official Twitter account.
Sajid said his ascent to the mountain’s peak, which is located at an elevation of 8,126 metres, was a component of the leading team’s mission to mend the ropes.
Sajid created history in May when he conquered Mount Everest, the highest mountain in the world, without using extra oxygen or the help of Sherpas, who are regarded as expert mountaineers from Nepal.
In order to achieve the ambition of his late father Mohammad Ali Sadpara, the young climber became the first Pakistani to ascend the world’s highest peak without the use of supplementary oxygen.
It should be emphasised that Sajid, the illustrious mountaineer Ali Sadpara’s son, plans to ascend all 14 eight-thousanders without using extra oxygen. He has already reached the top of Manaslu (8,163m), K2 (8,611m), Gasherbrum-I (8,080m), and Gasherbrum-II (8,035m) in Pakistan without the need of oxygen.
