He is the first Israeli to climb Mount Annapurna 1, and the Israeli who climbed the most mountains of above 8,000 meters.
In 2012, while climbing Mount Everest and about 300 meters below the summit, Ben Yehuda encountered an unconscious and severely injured climber from Turkey, and immediately began rescue efforts that also involved his own risk of life.
During the descent he had to remove the gloves from his right hand, and his oxygen system ceased to function.
The rescue ended successfully with both men alive, but as a result Ben Yehuda suffered severe physical injuries, including serious concerns of an amputation of his right hand's fingers.
For this act he was awarded a Presidential Medal of Honor at the President's Award for Volunteering ceremony.
During this climbing season of spring 2012, 10 climbers have died on Mount Everest.
On March 9, 2012, Ben Yehuda broke the Israeli record of climbing skyscrapers in the Run- Up category, setting it on 19,721 stairs when he climbed the highest tower in Israel – the Moshe Aviv Tower, for 13 consecutive times.

At the beginning of October 2014, Ben Yehuda was called by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Israeli Embassy in Nepal for search and rescue missions during the snowstorm disaster in the Nepali Himalayas.
The disaster was caused by the cyclone Hudhud, and resulted in the death of 43 people, 50 went missing and more than 175 got wounded.

On May 1, 2016, Ben Yehuda became the first Israeli to climb to the summit of Mount Annapurna I, the tenth highest mountain in the world( 8,091 meters above sea level), which is considered as the world's deadliest mountain.
Climbing Annapurna is a significant accomplishment due to the high death rate of more than 30%, and until now only about 200 people from all over the world have successfully climbed it.
To the summit, Ben Yehuda took the flag of Israel, and another flag bearing the names of Israelis who perished during the disasters in Nepal until that year, who he was involved in the search for many of them.
In September 2017, Ben Yehuda made a fast ascent of an 8,000 m mountain without the use of supplemental oxygen or any pre-acclimatization.
The chosen mountain was Manaslu( 8,163 m), the eighth highest mountain in the world, and the entire climb took 14 days.
In February 2017 Ben Yehuda was chosen to the list of the most influential people under the age of 30 by Forbes Magazine.
In May 2018, during a climb without the use of supplemental oxygen of Mount Kangchenjunga, the third highest mountain in the world – Ben Yehuda fell and got injured below the summit of the mountain.

Nachman Ben-Yehuda
Nachman Ben-Yehuda is a professor and former dean of the department of sociology and anthropology at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel.
One of his notable subjects of research is the fall of the fort of Masada, the last refuge of a Jewish group, the Sicarii, to the Romans in 73 CE.
The Sicarii committed mass suicide rather than surrender to slavery.
He views the story of Masada as a modern legend.
According to his book" Sacrificing Truth", the rendition of Josephus was embellished before and after the establishment of the State of Israel.
Based on transcripts of the 1963- 65 archaeological dig, he claims that the team, led by Yigael Yadin, a former chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces, fraudulently misrepresented findings and artifacts to fit within a pre-scripted narrative.
Ben-Yehuda compared the story as reported in the sole historical source, Flavius Josephus, to the myth that developed during the Zionist movement from the 1940s to the 1960s.
He examined how archaeologists, notably Yigael Yadin, interpreted their findings to conform to the myth.
According to Ben -Yehuda, Josephus describes the Sicarii unflatteringly.
They assassinated their Jewish opponents, and would not help the Jewish Zealots who were besieged in Jerusalem.
They raided nearby villages, including Ein Gedi, where they murdered 700 Jewish women and children.
They offered no resistance to the Romans, and their suicide was cowardly, unheroic and unwise.
Ben-Yehuda himself was brought up on the Masada myth, and climbed Masada himself to watch the sun rise over the Dead Sea.
Israeli youth movements visited Masada, and it was the location for military swearing- in ceremonies.
According to the myth, the Jews at Masada were Zealots who escaped the destruction of Jerusalem and continued to harass the Romans.
Ben- Yehuda quotes Moshe Dayan calling Masada" a symbol of heroism and of Liberty for the Jewish people to whom it says: Fight to death rather than surrender."
Contrary to Josephus, the myth claims that the rebels are" Zealots" rather than Sicarii, Masada was a rebel base for attacks on the Romans.
The massacre in Ein Geddi disappears.
Ben-Yehuda compared Yadin's tape- recorded notes during the excavations with Yadin's later statements.
For example, Yadin found three skeletons, of a woman, a man and a child.
On the tape, Yadin said that they could not have been a family.
In later writings, Yadin said that they were the remains of an important commander, his wife, and their child.
Ben-Yehuda believes that Yadin's distortions were ideologically motivated.
