Description
The Netflix Documentary 14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible, explores Nepal's deep connection to high-altitude mountaineering through the eyes of Nirmal "Nimsdai" Purja, a fearless, fun-loving Nepali climber on a quest he dubs "Project Possible"-to summit all 14 of the world's 8,000-meter mountains in just seven months.
Nimsdai's book BEYOND POSSIBLE has received great acclaim:
'An inspirational study in leadership and a powerful testament to the human spirit at its very best.' - Mail on Sunday
'If you're going to get one book this year get Beyond Possible.' - Ant Middleton
'The energy of the book gives it pace and you whip through, rather as Purja nips up verticals... Whether or not you are a lover of the mountains, you will marvel at his tenacity, his fearlessness. No one can fail to be inspired by what he achieved.' - The Times
'Not only does Nims have exceptional physical stamina, he's also a leader with great skills in financial management and logistics.' - Reinhold Messner, the first person to climb all fourteen highest mountains in the world
'The magnitude of his achievement is astonishing.' Soldier Magazine
'A Living Legend.' Trail Magazine
