Norwegian woman and professional skier, Kristin Harila has climbed the world’s 14 highest mountain peaks in three months and one day, the fastest recorded ascent.

Harila’s climb is not without controversy, reports the Guardian. Sherpa Mingma G criticised her Manaslu climb (The eighth highest mountain in the world) for ‘her team’s apparent heavy reliance on helicopters to stock camps on the mountain before her successful ascent.’
