A British mountaineer has suffered a serious fall in Argentina and has had to have his leg amputated following a climbing expedition gone wrong.
The unnamed 32-year-old also suffered a fractured skull in the accident on 22,837ft Mount Aconcagua — the highest mountain outside Asia.
The Brit had reached the impressive height of 20,000ft when he reportedly fell near Condor's Nest, the site of a high base camp.
