Climbing The Fourteen Highest Mountains On Earth - Nims Purja MBE - #256

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Oh, yes. Hello, friends. Welcome back. My guest today is Mountaineer Extreme and former SBS operative Nims Purja. The fastest that anyone had previously climbed the 14 Death Zone Mountains, which are the mountains higher than 8,000 meters, was eight years, and Nims did it in seven months. So today, expect to learn what the human body is truly capable of, how purpose can overcome fatigue, the truth behind that Everest photo, what effect Nims has noticed climate change has made to the mountains and much more. These last few weeks, man, like the Marcus Smith episode, the Tom Otten episode, this one with Nims is just, it's blowing me away in seeing what the human body is capable of. And this episode just is so unbelievable. The guy is aligned, awakened, completely at peace, but also an absolute savage at the same time. Like just a wonderful, wonderful ambassador. I'm super, super proud of what he's done. And whatever he gets up to over the next year, he's going to be hugely, hugely entertaining and crazy. So make sure that you go and give him a follow. This story's outrageous. So get ready for it today. Also, obviously, if you love this episode, please share it with a friend. It would make me so happy. The only way that this show grows is by people like you sharing it with people like you. And you're not going to find a more motivational and inspirational story this year.
