Manish Jha of Nalasopara has become the world’s fastest mountaineer to conquer ‘Kanamo Peak’ located in Himachal Pradesh. He climbed the height of 19723 feet in 11 hours 38 minutes. The special thing is that a day before Manish was going to start this campaign, he had fever and also vomited. But Manish’s courage gave him new energy and he created a world record by completing this difficult climb in record time.
‘Commando Training School’ and ‘European Union’ declared the said time as a world record. Apart from Manish who was leading the team, Suraj Pandey (25) from Virar, Virendra Kumawat (35), Parth Somani (21) from Jaipur and Kabir Sharma (26) from Delhi were with him. This is the third world record of 34 year old Manish.
2 Other World Records
Manish Jha had made 2 world records last year. He climbed ‘Kedarkantha’ peak (12500 feet) in just 7 hours and 50 minutes. Apart from this, he completed Brahmatal peak (13100 feet) in just 8 hours 30 minutes. After this achievement, Manish, a resident of Madhubani (Bihar), was honored with the ‘Bihar Ratna’ award by the Bihar government.
Manish says that he found the climb of ‘Kanamo‘ more difficult than the two peaks. He said that the oxygen level was very low, visibility was less than 5 meters. That means objects up to a distance of 5 meters were not visible. The weather was very rough, according to Manish, if I had not had good training and experience, it would have been very difficult for the entire team to reach there.
