Omar Samra is no stranger to accomplishing his dreams, but with his latest achievement, Samra has literally done something no human has ever done before.
In December, the Egyptian explorer climbed three mountains in Antarctica that no one has previously scaled. Doing so also gave him the right to name the peaks.
He named two after his daughter and his deceased wife, saying they are "the two greatest loves" of his life. The third he christened with his family name.
When Samra embarked on the expedition in mid December, he was unaware that he'd also be granted the privilege of naming the mountains. Learning that he'd have this honor, he knew he'd have to choose wisely.
"To me they represent the eternal, grace and purity," he explained in a Facebook post. "For this reason I decided to name them Mount Samra, Mount Marwa and Mount Teela after my family name and the two greatest loves of my life."
Sadly, Samra's wife Marwa died shortly after giving birth to their daughter in 2013.
Samra has been making headlines since 2007, when he became the first Arab and the youngest Egyptian to climb Mount Everest at the age of 29. He then went on to complete the Seven Summits Challenge, climbing the highest peaks on seven continents, becoming the first Egyptian to do so.
In 2013, Samra won a NASA competition, which will see him and 21 others launched into earth's outer orbit on a private spaceship. This will make him the first Egyptian in outer space.
