He created history in April by climbing Mount Annapurna, the tenth-highest peak in the world, without using any additional oxygen.
Sajid Sadpara is the son of high-altitude climber Ali Sadpara.
In July 2021, Sadpara reached the peak of K2 — the world’s 2nd highest mountain — for the second time.
In November 2021, Sadpara had to be rescued from Mount Everest after he fell sick during an expedition to explore a new route.
In September 2022, Sadpara climbed the world’s eighth highest peak — the 8,163-metre Mount Manaslu — in Nepal without the aid of supplemental oxygen.
In April 2023, Sadpara became the first Pakistani to climb the 8,091-metre tall Annapurna mountain in Nepal — the world’s 10th highest peak — without the support of supplemental oxygen as a part of Seven Summit Treks’ Annapurna Expedition 2023.
In May 2023, Sadpara became the first Pakistani to climb Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen and assistance from Sherpas.
