Click to play videoNew Delhi: Impossible is really nothing for 17-year-old American Johnny Strange. Strange has become the youngest person to climb the tallest summits on each of the seven continents.
The 17-year-old from California has conquered the tallest summits in Africa, North America, Russia, South America, Nepal and Australia.
He fell in love with climbing when he was just 12 and now he's just climbing higher and higher.
"It was a life-changing experience. I'm so happy to have done it and be fortunate enough to have succeeded but I loved it. I'm no different from any other 17 year old kid who's trying to be best basketball player on the team," says Strange.
Not only does Strange keep challenging himself but he also wants to raise awareness on two issues closest to his heart.
"Travelling the world kind of really gave me some humility and I'd meet a lot of different people. The genocide thing - even though it's very far away from here, it's still happening and a horrible situation with the atrocities that are going on," he says
He is already planning his next adventure but perhaps he's already peaked at 17.
