KATHMANDU: DEC. 3 – Nepali mountaineer Nirmal Purja aka Nimsdai demonstrates an attitude that screams ‘nothing is impossible with his ambition to summit all 14 peaks over 8000 meters in just seven months in Netflix’s documentary ’14 Peaks: Nothing is Impossible,’ which was published on November 29.

People all across the world have been heaping accolades on the documentary just two days after it was released. The IMDb score is as high as 8.6, while the reviewers at Rotten Tomatoes have given it an 83 percent rating for the time being.

It is also ranked sixth on Netflix’s list of the top ten documentaries.

The film has also won accolades such as The Guardian Film Choice and The Sunday Times’ Pick of the Week.

As part of Project Possible, Torquil Jones’ video explores “Nepal’s strong relationship to high-altitude climbing” through the perspective of Nimsdai.

The film features 100 hours of video shot by Nimsdai and his colleagues on their trek to the highest peaks, which they tried between April and October of this year.

He and his team of skilled Sherpas summited Mt. Everest, K2, Kanchanjunga, Lhotse, Makalu, Cho Oyu, Dhaulagiri I, Manaslu, Nanga Parbat, Annapurna I, Gasherbrum I, Broad Peak, Gasherbrum II, and Shishapangma in record time, breaking the previous record held by Kim Chang-ho of South Korea, who took nearly eight years.

“Allow this film to serve as motivation for you to believe that nothing is impossible. Nobody knew who this person was, no one believed I was serious, and no one imagined I’d do it. Now, 14 peaks are being distributed throughout 191 countries to its 180 million users. And it feels fantastic! “according to Nimsdai

“We all have personal mountains to climb in life; your mountain may not be an 8000er, but know that you can conquer it.”
