Original Title: TIL that a Sherpa was presumed dead after being stranded at 7,500m on Everest. He survived six days without bottled oxygen or food, chewing ice and eating chocolate, then spent 2.5 days trapped in a crevasse. After escaping, he crawled toward Base Camp while his family prepared for his funeral.
