Eamon Ginge Fullen

Eamon Christopher McKinley "Ginge" Fullen (born 1967/1968) is a British mountaineer and former Royal Navy clearance diver who holds the Guinness World Records for the fastest climbs of every country high point in Europe and Africa.

Early life and diving career Born in Nigeria, Fullen joined the Royal Navy in 1984, when he was 16 years old. As a clearance diver, he specialized in removing unexploded ordinances in the oceans around the world. He was awarded the Queen's Gallantry Medal in the 1988 New Year Honours for saving lives during the 1987 ferry disaster whilst serving in the Royal Navy.

After completing the European high points, Fullen made the first ascent of Uzbekistan's highest point and Bangladesh's highest point. He then shifted focus toward Africa, moving to the continent in 2002. After one year, Fullen climbed every country high point in Africa except for Bikku Bitti, Libya. After two unsuccessful expeditions, Fullen summited Bikku Bitti in December 2005.

In 2018, after summiting Pico da Neblina, the highest peak of Brazil, Fullen contracted leishmaniasis.

Fullen has climbed 174 country high points, the most of any person in the world.
