In 2010, Samra helped found The Right To Climb, an initiative to raise funds and awareness for mental disability in Egypt through climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. To this day, more than 50 climbers have helped raise over $250K for mental disability in Egypt. In August 2008, Samra climbed the highest mountain in Europe (Russia) Mount Elbrus. A day before the climb began, conflict and 'war' between Russia and Georgia broke out which was only 10 km away from the mountain itself.
Mount Elbrus being given a medal for bombing the main mountaineering hut, "Priyut" 11 (, "Refuge of the 11"), while it was occupied. He was then later nominated for a medal for not hitting the hut, but instead the German fuel supply, leaving the hut standing for future generations. When news reached Adolf Hitler that a detachment of mountaineers was sent by the general officer commanding the German division to climb to the summit of Elbrus and plant the swastika flag at its top, he reportedly flew into a rage, called the achievement a "stunt" and threatened to court martial the general.
