Climber challenges record
Nepalese climber Min Bahadur Sherchan says scaling the highest mountain in the world at the age of 77 was "no problem."
It was only when he tried to register his claim to be the oldest man to have reached the summit of Mount Qomolangma with Guinness World Records that his troubles began.
