Watch a ‘very rare’ high-altitude rescue at Mt. Everest's 'death zone' A Malaysian climber narrowly survived after a Nepali sherpa guide hauled him down from below the summit of Mount Everest. Gelje Sherpa, 30, was guiding a Chinese client to the 8,849 metre Everest summit on May 18 when he saw the Malaysian climber clinging to a rope and shivering from extreme cold in the "death zone" area where temperatures can dip to minus 30 degrees Celsius or lower. #mteverest #everestrescue #sherpa #everes
