Original Message A female climber who made it her mission to prove vegans were capable of extreme physical challenges has died near the summit of Everest.

Maria Strydom, a 34-year-old Australian academic, succumbed to altitude sickness after having to turn back on the final leg of the intrepid trek.

She was among 30 climbers, including her husband, to fall ill or suffer frostbite climbing the world’s tallest peak over the weekend.

She is also the third mountaineer to die in the first Everest climbing season since an earthquake in Nepal last year.

On Friday Dutchman Eric Arnold died in his sleep near the mountain’s summit after telling team-mates “my body has no energy left”.

A vegan academic. A species extinct soon.
