Nadav Ben Yehuda (Hebrew: נדב בן יהודה, born February 29, 1988) is an Israeli mountain climber, search and rescue professional, photographer and speaker.

In 2012, while climbing Mount Everest and about 300 meters below the summit, Ben Yehuda encountered an unconscious and severely injured climber, Aydin Irmak [1] originally from Turkey, and immediately began rescue efforts that also involved his own risk of life.

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.

[9] At the end of October 2014, Ben Yehuda was sent by the Israeli Embassy in Nepal for a rescue mission at a crash site of a bus that overturned and fell over a cliff in the Langtang range area.
