Double Amputee Returns After Climbing Mt Everest

CHRISTCHURCH, NEW ZEALAND - MAY 25: New Zealand climber Mark Inglis, a double-amputee, is given a welcome home card by a school boy upon arriving at Christchurch airport, after returning from Kathmandu, May 25, 2006 in Christchurch, New Zealand. Inglis became the first double-amputee to conquer Mt. Everest, the world's highest mountain, last week. On the way to the 8848-metre summit, Inglis' team found British climber David Sharp, 34, near death in a cave 300 metres below the summit, in a place known as the "Death Zone." They tried to help but Inglis said they could do little for Sharp and they carried on to the summit. Sharp later died. (Photo by Simon Fergusson/Getty Images)
