This is one of those stories about Mount Kilimanjaro that you don’t want to read. It’s the almost tragic experience of someone who made one wrong move while climbing Kilimanjaro – and it almost cost him his life. The story is about pharmacist Steve Ziebell who had an accident on Kilimanjaro. Ziebell hit his head and fell into into a crevasse. Afterwards, he had a 16-hour trip down the mountain on a stretcher with a blood clot near the brain. He ended up having three surgeries in a Nairobi hospital.
