Pakistani mountaineer Shehroze Kashif, at 22, has set a new national record as the youngest climber from Pakistan to conquer all 14 peaks over 8,000 meters. Kashif achieved this incredible feat today by summiting Shishapangma, which stands at 8,027 meters. Nicknamed the "Broad Boy", Kashif reached the peak early this morning, further cementing his legacy in the world of mountaineering. He becomes the second Pakistani to accomplish this remarkable achievement, following in the footsteps of Sirbaz Khan, who recently became the first Pakistani to scale all 14 eight-thousanders after summiting Shishapangma. Sharing the successful summit through his Facebook page, Kashif announced that he climbed the 8027m mountain at 3:30am, "completing his extraordinary journey of summiting all 14 of the world’s 8000m peaks". "As the Youngest Pakistani to achieve this monumental feat, Shehroze raises the Green Flag of Pakistan high once again, marking a historic moment for both him and the nation. Congratulations to whole Pakistan," said his social media post.
