Shehroze Kashif is the youngest Pakistani to conquer the world's highest mountains. At just 22, Shehroze achieved the unthinkable, scaling all 14 8000ers and cementing his name in mountaineering history.

Shehroze is only the second climber from Pakistan to achieve this elusive feat, following Sarbaz Khan.

While speaking to Nukta in an exclusive interview, Shehroze detailed that his journey was far from easy. He faced unimaginable challenges, including a near-death experience on Nanga Parbat, where he narrowly escaped with his life.

Shehroze’s incredible journey began at the age of 17 when he summited Broad Peak (8,047m) on July 27, 2019.

At 19, Shehroze became the youngest Pakistani to climb the world's highest mountain, Mount Everest (8,849m), on May 11, 2021.

Soon after summitting Everest, Kashif scaled K2 (8,611m) on July 27, 2021, becoming the youngest climber to climb the second-highest peak in the world.
