A South Korean who was hailed as the first woman to climb the world's 14 highest peaks has been stripped of her title after a mountaineering organisation claimed that evidence she had completed the challenge was "unreliable".
Oh Eun Sun, 44, "probably failed" to reach the top of the world's third highest mountain, Kanchenjunga, according to the Korean Alpine Federation.
The record should pass to a Spanish climber, Edurne Pasaban, 37.
