Every year the death toll on Mount Everest rises, and for every six mountaineers
who make it to the top, one will die. Yet at in February 2001, Andrew
Salter entered The Guinness Book of Records by not only climbing Everest
but another 6 mountains simultaneously
He holds the World Record for climbing the “Seven Summits”
in the fastest time. by reducing the previous record of 588 days to 288
days (9.5 months). The challenge started in May 2000 in Asia when he climbed
Mt Everest, continued in June to Mt McKinley in Alaska; July to Killimanjaro
in Africa; September to Mt Elbrus in Russia; October to Carstenz Pyramid
in

| Indonesia; November to Mt Vinson in Antarctica
and finally Aconcagua in S. America in February 2001. |
 |
During the attempt he twice suffered a high altitude pulmonary oedema
resulting in a return to Aconcagua 3 times to make the summit, claim
the record and fulfil many a mountaineers’ dream. Having been
so close to death, returning to the same mountain 3 times became a
personal challenge with real fear and demoralisation to overcome.

| Andrew has a natural talent for communication.
He now spends his time running a successful Industrial Rope Access business
and talking to corporations about his experiences on the mountain and how
these can help us achieve our goals in our business environments. |
