Hari Budha Magar, from Canterbury, Kent, became the first double amputee to attempt and complete the challenge of climbing Mount Aconcagua, in the Andes Mountain range in Argentina.
He started the challenge on 9th February and completed the challenge in under two weeks.
He’s added this world record to another, he’s also the first double amputee to reach the summit of Mount Everest.
The father of three, who lost both legs serving for the Royal Gurkha Rifles in Afghanistan, was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire MBE for his services to disability awareness last year.
In a speech made at the Plaza de Mulas base camp at Mount Aconcagua after he’d finished he said: “I’m trying to raise awareness of disability all around the world, because disabled people can do anything.”
