Former Gurkha & UK Special Forces, record-breaking mountaineer and Elite Exped Founder & Director, Nimsdai ‘Nims’ Purja MBE is showing the world that everyone can dream big and achieve their new possible.
Nims Purja already has 12 mountaineering World Records under his belt, including his 2019 record – documented by Netflix film 14 Peaks: Nothing is Impossible – to become the fastest person to summit the world’s 14 highest peaks.
Since then, Nims led a team of mountaineers who became the first to summit K2 in winter – widely considered to be an impossible task. Nims was the first and only person to do so without oxygen. And in 2022, as part of guiding and leading expeditions to help others achieve their goals, Nims set two further records: the summit of three higher 8,000m peaks – Everest, Lhotse and Kanchenjunga – in 8 days, 23 hours and 10 minutes without oxygen, and the completion of the Everest to Lhotse traverse without oxygen in 26 hours.
Not stopping at 12 world records, Nimsdai will attempt another ground-breaking world record in 2023.
NIMSDAI’S 2023 WORLD RECORD ATTEMPT
With a clear goal to show the world what human beings can achieve, in 2023 Nimsdai will attempt to set a fastest world record to climb all of the 14 highest peaks in the world WITHOUT oxygen.
