63-Year-Old Retired Military Doctor Summits Highest Mountain Outside Asia

AMC Lt. Col. (R) Jabbar Bhatti has summitted the Mount Aconcagua, highest mountain outside Asia. The more surprising thing is that he has achieved the feat at the age of 63.

Lt. Col. Jabbar had also scaled the highest peak in the world, Mount Everest in Nepal, back in 2017. The former Army officer nearly died while doing it, however, it didn’t stop him from fulfilling his dreams.

Mount Aconcagua is a mountain in the Principal Cordillera of the Andes mountain range in Argentina with a summit elevation of 6,960.8 meters (22,837 ft).
