Product Information

While he admits reaching the summit is only half the task, he himself seems to be deluded by the summit fever in some cases. His wife, Suchi, gets (well-deserved) thanks for allowing their house to be remortgaged so he can fund his dream. they seem to all be constantly wondering what he will do next) although he's really put sherpas on the map and painted a true picture of what summiting is like (join the queue please) let's be honest he found a hobby he loved and gave up his job to do it full time.

Wenn man (als Nicht-Bergsteigerin) auf Netflix über die Dokumentation "14 Gipfel" gestolpert ist, dann weiß man spätestens jetzt, wer Nimsdai Purja ist - ein Verrückter, ein Wahnsinniger. Beyond Possible: One Soldier, Fourteen Peaks — My Life In The Death Zone is the inside story of my incredible adventure. There’s no doubt that Nimsdai’s feat is extraordinary but the book is told in a very self indulgent and pretentious way.It's a fast, frothy read--if you watched the documentary and want more details (relatively speaking), it's a good book for that. He became the first Gurkha to join the Special Boat Service, via a selection process for which he trained with more night runs, gym sessions, swimming thousands of kilometres, going to bed at midnight, only to get up at 2am to do it all again. Seine eigene Geschichte wird noch einmal etwas genauer beleuchtet (armer Junge aus Nepal, der dann zur Eliteeinheit der Gurkhas gehört und später zum Special Boat Services) und wir sehen, wie spät er eigentlich erst mit dem (Extrem-)Bergsteigen beginnt.

Please include what you were doing when this page came up and the Cloudflare Ray ID found at the bottom of this page. Nirmal Purja (known as Nims or Nimsdai) MBE (Nepali: निर्मल पुर्जा) is a Nepal-born naturalised British mountaineer and a holder of multiple mountaineering world records. First the selection into the British Gurkha Regiment, followed by the even more tough selection into the SBS and then, going sideways for his true passion - wanting to climb the 14, 8000+ peaks in world record timings. The second half is dedicated to a chapter-by-chapter description of each mountain and what occurred while he and his team were climbing.g. he took an inexperienced sherpa on his first Everest climb so the guy could command better fees in the future) and he gives up oxygen to help others live, etc. We are experiencing delays with deliveries to many countries, but in most cases local services have now resumed. So many things in this book are seemingly impossible feats: he saves lives and attempts to save others while out on the mountains doing his own challenges, he acclimatises more rapidly than other climbers and recovers amazingly quickly from work that floors others, he rescues a fellow climber in an operation that includes being helicoptered up to him, dangling off a rope underneath the helicopter, and he ends up directing climbers in a traffic jam on Everest when he’s supposed to be breaking a world record. He was leading from the front and putting in the legwork (trailblazing/fixing ropes) himself on the mountains.

A good read, exciting even if you followed Nims’ adventures and know what happened, and an inspirational message. This is a shorter book (just over 150 pages) that I can see being popular with readers who like nonfiction tales about war or adventures. But even after facing countless challenges, right at the peak of my achievements, my world fell apart when my mother was hospitalised. It was tough work, and he was not always treated well by his fellow soliders because of his ethnicity.Reading this, you cannot doubt, for one second, that Purja has earned every peak and plaudit with blood, sweat and no tears. Ich denke sprachlich hätte man aus dem Buch noch mehr rausholen können, aber andererseits mochte ich seine schnoddrige, gutgelaunte Art in der Doku sehr gerne und habe aus den meisten Seiten einfach Nims herauslesen können. Wanting to do what everyone thought impossible, Nims developed Project Possible, a mission to climb the fourteen highest mountains in the world in only seven months, which is seven years faster than the world record. He has put great effort in the book as well in his missions to provide as much benifit as possible to all the expedition crew mates.
