A 10-year-old Irish boy yesterday became the youngest European to climb one of the worlds highest mountains.
Seán McSharry, from Stillorgan, Co Dublin, reached the 5,898 metre summit of Kilimanjaro, Tanzania, at noon Irish time.
He missed out on becoming the youngest person in the world to reach the summit after it emerged a 10-year-old Californian boy reached the peak in 2006.
