No Legs No Limits

From injured veteran to the world’s first double above-knee amputee to summit Mount Everest; Hari shares his inspiring journey from being born in a cowshed, going to school barefoot, growing up in civil war, passing the most difficult military selection, losing his legs in 2010, battling depression and discrimination, to standing atop the world’s largest peak in May 2023.

Just this year, following years of preparation and a gruelling three day climb, Hari and his team (Abiral Rai, Mingma Sherpa and climb leader Jangbu Sherpa from Alpine Ascents) battled -25 degree (Celcius) temperatures, vicious Antarctic winds, treacherous slopes, and freezing ice fields that tested his mind, body and prosthetic legs to the extreme, to reach the top of Mount Vinson (4,892m) at 22:00 on 6th January, 2026. With this last summit under his belt he has become the first double above-knee amputee to summit the highest peaks on all seven continents. 

As an extraordinary pioneer, pushing both physical, psychological and perceptual boundaries of human ability and spirit, his story is one of resilience and innovation, proving that having a disability is not life limiting. Hari demonstrates the mental agility required to remove limits and shows how mindset is everything in conquering dreams.
