On Saturday Jordan Romero a 13 year old American broke the Everest record, being the youngest to ever climb it. Broke the record of a 16 year old Temba Tsheri of Nepal. He said he was doing this for himself to do something big but also to inspire others. "Obese children are the future of America, the way things are going," he said on April 9 in Kathmandu. "I am hoping to change that by doing what I do: climbing and motivational speaking." Jordan has now climbed 6 of the Seven Summits and plans the 7th one; Vinson Massif in Antarctica to be climbed in December.
