A 13-year-old American boy became the youngest climber to reach the top of Mount Everest on May 22, surpassing the previous record set by a 16-year-old Nepalese. Jordan Romero called his mother by satellite phone from the summit of the world's highest mountain, 8,850 meters above sea level. He is now one climb away from his quest to conquer the highest peaks on all seven continents. "He says, 'Mom, I'm calling you from the top of the world,' " said Leigh Anne Drake, who had watched her son's progress on a GPS tracker online. (AP)
