The youngest person to climb Mount Everest at the age of 17 years 6 months 15 days on 1973 May 5.
Shambu "Shambhu" Tamang (Nepali: शम्भू तामाङ; 20 October 1955 – 7 July 2022)[1] was a Nepalese mountaineer who once held the record as the youngest person to successfully ascend Mount Everest, reaching the summit on May 5, 1973. Previous records differed on his actual age at the time of the successful climb; although most records claimed he was 16 years of age, it is currently believed he was actually 17 years 6 months old. Tamang's record was surpassed in May 2001 by Temba Tsheri.[2]
Tamang, who had since repeated his ascent of the summit from northern side, owned a trekking company in Kathmandu.[3]
