PETALING JAYA: Despite being born without legs, Azzrulkhan Hasrullah Matsah is determined to set new climbing records, one hand print at a time.

The 25-year-old final year communications student at the International Islamic University of Malaysia in Gombak, scaled Mount Kinabalu last year to become the first disabled man to crawl up the highest peak in South-East Asia.
