Nirmal Purja has set several world records after climbing the world's 14 highest mountains in less than seven months.
1 Though he was born 1,600 metres above sea level, he didn't climb any serious mountains until he was 29.
But Mr Purja, now 36, was trained to be strong. He used to be a soldier in the British army, where he had special training for fighting in very cold weather. 2
There are only 14 mountains in the world that are higher than 8,000 metres. Mr Purja had already climbed several of them. 3 The old record for climbing the 14 mountains was seven years, ten months and six days. It was set by South Korean climber Kim Chang-ho in 2013.
Mr Purja named his challenge “Project Possible”. 4 On October 29, just a little more than six months after he started, Nirmal Purja had finished climbing the 14th mountain.
Though Mr Purja completed his challenge unbelievably quickly, it wasn't easy. For example, during one day of climbing Shishapangma, Mr Purja and his team climbed for 15 hours nonstop. 5
