I Saved a Stranger on Everest

Former soldier and Outlook Inspirations nominee Leslie Binns was just 400 metres from achieving his lifelong dream of reaching the summit of Everest, when he came across an Indian climber who was in real danger. Sunita Hazra was running out of oxygen and would have died if it were not for Leslie who helped her back down the mountain.

Leslie appeared on Outlook 24th January 2017.
