Incredible! With an important message.
A Nepalese shows it to the world. Anyone who goes mountaineering themselves can certainly assess the enormous performance of the man a bit better than a layman. Nevertheless, it should be said that great things have been achieved here. And the film shows that too. Perhaps he cannot match the emotional strength of Jimmy Chin with his film Free Solo, but it has an important message in it: Sherpas are the real heroes of the mountains, without them many of the western mountaineers would not be able to climb all the 8,000-meter peaks. Nirmal Purja, a little hero.
Incredible Doc - One of the Best Ever
"From the beginning of our life, we are approaching death."
14 peaks had me in awe. It was beyond a great documentary and an incredible feat.
The amount that Nims went through can tell stories for what seems like the lifetimes of 2 people. Endeavor after endeavor, mountain after mountain, and it brought with it unforeseen difficulties. Nims and his team climbed more than 8000 m+ peaks. They climbed mountains within their mind, body, and soul.
I hope him and his team get more recognition and credit. Wow!
I hope this crew gets recognition for such a beautiful documentary that assembled for the world.
Project possible shows what's possible - especially with belief. Nims inspired me now that I'm going on to climb my own mountains in life (literally and figuratively;)).

Amazing...
"14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible" is a Documentary in which we watch Nirmal Purja, a Nepali mountaineer trying the impossible task of summit all the 14, 8,000-meter peaks in just seven months.
I liked this documentary very much because it was very interesting, it had a nice plot and the way we followed Nirmal Purja on his quest was very good. The direction which was made by Torquil Jones was also very good since he presented very well Nirmal Purja, his history and his life in general, something that made possible for us to better understand him as a person and even relate to him at some moments. In addition to this, Nirmal Purja was outstanding and what he tried to achieve was simply impossible, that's why he named it project possible. In conclusion, I have to say that "14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible" is an amazing documentary and I highly recommend everyone to watch it.

you dont have to be a climber to love this
This was amazing and one of the best I've seen, his a intelligent man with amazing DNA that none of us have his wife is a complete angel for allowing him this freedom to live his dreams
If you like this and you will the doc on Fred Becky is slightly better its available on amazon for a price i think a one day rental was $1.
High achievers
I love films about people taking on great challenges, but this is something else! Gurka Nimsdai Purja and his team of four scale the 14 highest mountains over 8000m, and in just 7 months. Spectacular in every way, it's quite a ride, and though there isn't much time to dwell on the details of climbing the individual mountains so it all feels a bit rushed at times (14 mountains in 110 mins) the film still gives overviews which are illustrated well. You wonder what they'll top this achievement with!!
Did you know
- TriviaWhen he summited the first peak, Annapurna I on 23 April 2019, Purja had only locked down 15 percent of the financing he needed, and most of this money had come from remortgaging his own UK house.
