    The answer is somewhat uncertain as birthdate records among Sherpas tend to be not 100% reliable. A credible contender is Ming Kipa Sherpa, who was claimed to be aged 15 years 9 months when she reached the summit in May 2003 - her 30-year old sister, Lhakpa Sherpa, became the first woman to reach the top three times as part of the same ascent.
    The fully-verified record holder and youngest male, is Temba Shiri (16 years 17 days).
