AEW’s Darby Allin Breaks Bizarre World Record On Everest
AEW star Darby Allin has broken a world record as he continues with his attempt to climb Mount Everest.
Risking life and limb in AEW has never been enough for Darby Allin, who regularly undertakes insane challenges outside of the ring. The biggest of these challenges saw him plan to climb Mount Everest in April 2024, but Allin’s plans were thwarted by a broken foot.
Despite that setback, Allin is currently undertaking the epic climb of the planet’s largest mountain, and it seems he’s having fun while doing so.
Taking to social media, Darby Allin shared a video of him nailing a kickflip on his skateboard before announcing that he’s now taken the world record for the highest elevation kickflip at an incredible 20,958 feet.

Darby Allin Wants To Plant AEW Flag On Everest
During an appearance at the AEW All In Texas ticket on-sale party back in late 2024, Allin claimed he’ll plant an AEW flag on Mount Everest to show how important the company is:
The cool thing with AEW is I can look at myself in the mirror and know exactly who I’m looking at. This company gives me so much. They let me do what I want to do out there in the ring in front of all of you, and they let me do what I want to do in my personal life.
I am climbing Mount Everest in April, and I’m going to take that AEW flag and plant it on top of the goddamn world to remind everybody what AEW is capable of.
When I climb down from that mountain, I’m coming to Globe Life Field, and as a whole, AEW as a family, we’re going to remind the world exactly what this company is capable of. Because it doesn’t happen with just us, it happens with every single one of you.
We wouldn’t be here today if it wasn’t for you guys. So, thank you for coming out. Thank you for continuing to show the love. Globe Life Field, July 12th, is going to be very, very, very special, and we are not going to put on anything less than what you guys deserve.
AEW fans last saw Darby Allin in the ring back in December 2024 when he competed in his final match of the Continental Classic against Ricochet.
