Listen now
Description
In this week’s episode, we chat to Superhuman Mountaineer and extreme adventurer, Nims Purja MBE. As a child, born without even a pair of flip flops to his name, Nims tells us about his journey from humble beginnings to becoming a record breaking mountaineer through Project Possible, where he climbed 14 of the world’s highest peaks in under 7 months. We also hear about his time in the Ghurkas and how Nims became the first ever Ghurka to pass selection for the elite UK Special Forces, the SBS. Nims also tells us about his recent challenges including the writing of his debut book “Beyond Possible” and his newest extreme sport endeavour, the adrenaline fuelled “Speedflying”. Closing the episode, Nims continues with his usual character and gives us only 1 single recommend for his 3 lockdown recommends… What do you think it could be?
