On April 16, 2011 the Swiss Ueli Steck breaks the ascent record of Shisha Pangma (8027 m, 26,335 feet) reaching the summit from base camp in 10h and 30 min and comes back to base camp in a total of 20 hours.
These were his times:
10:25 PM (16. April): leaves ABC
1:10 AM (17 April): crosses the Bergschrund
11:40 AM: reaches summit.
6.30 PM: returns to ABC
Check out this video for more on his Shisha speed climb
And this was the route followed by him
