No, this isn't Sir Ed. He is somewhat greyer, and still has two feet.
Meet Mark Inglis.
Climbing Everest? It is a tourist trip these days, albeit a high risk one.
In November 1982, Inglis, then a mountain rescue guide, lost his legs to frostbite in a climbing mishap.
A blizzard trapped him and countryman Phil Doole in an ice cave on Mt Cook for 14 days.
Both had their legs amputated below the knees
Thanks Herald...
