Описание: In Loving Memory of Nims Dai - Project Impossible

The global mountaineering community is mourning the tragic passing of legendary Nepali-born climber Nirmal “Nimsdai” Purja, who lost his life following a devastating high-altitude avalanche on Broad Peak (8,047m) in Pakistan.

On July 31, 2026, an expedition team led by his adventure company, Elite Exped, was struck by the avalanche. On August 1, 2026, the company officially confirmed that Nimsdai and several trusted climbing partners—including Pur Bahadur Gurung (Yukta) and Nima Sherpa—did not survive the tragedy.

A Revolutionary Legacy

Nimsdai leaves behind an indelible mark on human history and the world of high-altitude mountaineering:

Project Possible: He captured global attention by shattering the world record for climbing all 14 of the world's 8,000-metre peaks. He completed the feat in just six months and six days, a task that previously took other climbers several years. His historic journey was chronicled in the acclaimed documentary 14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible.

K2 Winter Ascent: In 2021, Nimsdai led an all-Nepali team to achieve the first-ever winter ascent of K2—widely considered one of the final and most dangerous frontiers in mountaineering.

Military Excellence: Before his climbing career, he served with elite distinction as a British Army Gurkha and later as a operative in the UK Special Forces (SBS).
