現(xiàn)年44歲的韓國女登山云隊(duì)員吳銀善于4月27日在尼泊爾登頂世界第十高的安娜普爾納峰，成為全世界首位征服了全部14座8000米以上高峰的女性，也是到目前為止，成功登頂這14座高峰第20名登山隊(duì)員。首位完成此項(xiàng)壯舉的登山家是意大利的雷諾?梅斯納。高8091米的安娜普爾納峰被稱為世界上最險(xiǎn)峻的山峰，去年秋季吳銀善就曾經(jīng)嘗試登頂，但是由于天氣原因未能成功。不過，面對吳銀善征服14座高峰的壯舉，有登山歷史學(xué)家提出質(zhì)疑，稱對其在2009年攀登世界第三高的干城章嘉峰時是否真的登頂存有質(zhì)疑。這位學(xué)者表示曾對比過同一時間段其他登山隊(duì)員和吳銀善登頂?shù)恼掌渌?duì)員照片的背景都是雪，而她的照片顯示她是站在石頭上。

South Korean climber Oh Eun-sun claimed the record as the first woman to summit all 14 of the world's peaks over 8,000 meters when she scaled Mount Annapurna in Nepal on Tuesday.

Oh, 44, reached the Annapurna summit, the world's 10th highest at 8,091 meter (26,545 feet), at 0918 GMT with three sherpa climbers and two members of Korea's KBS Television, said Song Hea-kyoung, an official of the Korean Trek and Expedition, which provided the logistics for her record attempt.

"With this she has climbed all 14 highest peaks," Song said of Oh.

Nineteen men have climbed all 14 peaks above 8,000 meters (26,246 feet) so far. Italy's Reinhold Messner was the first man to achieve the feat.

Oh was beaten back on Annapurna, considered one of the world's most treacherous mountains, in autumn last year by bad weather.

She narrowly beat Edurne Pasaban to the record, after the Spaniard climbed Annapurna earlier this month. Pasaban is in Tibet where she has been preparing for her 14th and final climb, an assault on Mount Shisha Pangma.

There was no immediate comment from the Nepali government about Oh's record, and it was unclear if her place would be recognized by climbing historians.

Climbing historian Elizabeth Hawley said Oh's 2009 ascent of the world's third highest Mount Kanchenjunga was in dispute as the picture of the climber was "clearly" not at the summit of the mountain because it showed her feet on the rock and not on snow.

"Summit pictures of other people on the same mountain in the same season show them standing in the snow," Hawley, who chronicles major climbs in? Himalayas, told Reuters.
