What's next?
Now that Conrad, Jimmy and Renan have become the first people in the world to ascend the Shark’s Fin, they hope that others will follow in their footsteps.
However, "it might be 20 years before the second ascent of the Shark's Fin route. It generally takes a generation before the next party wants to try the route," Conrad says.
A documentary called Meru, filmed by the three explorers during their expedition and directed by Jimmy, was released in 2015 at the Sundance Film Festival.
