Nirmal Purja really broke that mental barrier. Just like in other sports, once someone breaks that barrier that no one thought was possible for the longest time, others soon start surpassing it. Amazing achievement nonetheless.
Nims helped many struggling, left the ropes so other people can complete the journey, visa issues etc. 14 peaks documentary just shows his ability to help others
Nims achievement was about highlighting what the sherpas do and how nobody would summit these peaks without them. I'm sure having watched many interviews with the man. He is not concerned about the record being broken and who breaks it. That is a very Western thing. I hope they make the right decisions regarding safety over records and everyone involved gets home to their families. Good luck to you.
Thank you was going to write something very similar. I doubt anyone will break his record for some time regardless. They were very blessed and lucky during their expedition and had they not had any trouble with the permits I believe he would've done it faster. Regardless the sherpa deserve their glory without them these things are barely possible. ✌️😎🇺🇸
Exactly, to these people it’s only about pride and vanity, Nims was trying to uplift the sherpas. They don’t get it! And of course they didn’t make the right decision.
Glad this didn't get as much publicity as Nims. Multiple reports of her being flown to higher camps to reach summits, completely ignoring and disrespecting Sherpas, reports of her ignoring/abandoning and injured Sherpa so she could make her summit. Too many claims to believe she did it the right way. Disrespectful
Best of luck to her. Hope she makes the climb safely. And record time or not, that’s still a hell of an achievement that very few people on earth can boast
I feel like any westerner trying to beat Nims record is just being disrespectful at this point. He did it to give respect to the sherpas that risk their lives everyday helping westerners reach the summits. By trying to beat his record you're just spitting in the face of the sherpas.
How many people did she help on the way to the summits? How many lives have been saved by her? How much help did she given to others? We don’t know anything about these kind of things so at the moment I would say the achievement of Nims and the achievement of her even if she breaks the record it’s not comparable.
I always wonder just how fast Nims and his team could have done it if they hadn’t faced so many obstacles. His mother nearly died, he had to take part in rescues, he had to set the fixed lines for other climbers, and he had to wait over a month to get permission from the Chinese government to climb Shishapangma.
Es geht um die Vergleichbarkeit! Ein Rekord macht nur Sinn wenn die Voraussetzungen vergleichbar sind, wie zum Beispiel bei einem 100 m Lauf. Zuviel Rückenwind führt zur Nichtanerkennung. Viele Faktoren waren bei Nim und Harila unterschiedlich: Sauerstoff, persönlicher Beitrag beim Spuren und Seile anbringen, Finanzierung , Wetter usw.. Keine Vergleichbarkeit, kein Rekord!
It's interesting that u pointed this out 11 months ago, because now we know what an apathetic person she is. She left the sherpa to die to make her record.
@@larsharstadmehus8101 the fact that she had objectively more assistance than the previous record holder and went out of her way in order to get one of her Sherpas Chinese visa denyed making it so tha he would not share the record with her makes me see her accomplishment as less than the previous holders. It's my subjective view I understand
Wishing her and her team the best of luck and hoping for safe summits and safe descents. If the rabbit hole of mountaineering disaster videos on RU-vid has taught me anything, it's that the weather can make or break an expedition and that the deathzone is no joke
I AM THE BEST, I AM THE BEST, I AM THE BEST; YES I SAW AND PASSED THE DYING PAKISTANI PORTER AND HE ASKED ME TO HELP HIM TO SURVIVE, BUT I WAS BUSY BECOMING THE BEST; THIS IS MY LIFE!! KRISTIN HARILA.
I'm under the impression that she's about to climb her 14th and last peak to complete the record,yet it turned out that she still has to climb 3 more.....anyways good luck to her,stay safe
she has a lot of time left though, I think the video said until november. but I would guess that most or all of these mountains are in the northern hemisphere, then she would want to finish rather quickly before it gets much colder up there.
The difference is nims didn’t walk over an injured and dying man. He saved a man’s life at the expense of a faster record. And that’s why this new record will always be tainted
stop it, aren't the sherpas helping her on her journey the men?? , she is nothing more than a tourist paying to enjoy the trip , she said as if she wanted to fight the biological properties that everyone has to admit , if she knew the hardships that nirmal purja had to go through in her journey, she should stop trying to compare with him because she is basically unworthy. Note : she should name the sherpas who accompanied her on the trip .
Will be a great achievement with or without the record!! One thing I would be curious to know is what her financing for the record attempt has been like? Nim's record was outstanding in itself but even more so, because he overcame some immense financial barriers to fund the project and also had to fundraise in between climbs, at times not even knowing if he would have enough money to complete the summits
She is Norwegian and Norway is very rich. I believe she is fully funded by Norwegian sponsors. Also the lifts to the basecamp with Helicopter isn't just a small thing I presume..
@@rileyreese3991Harila is sponsored by Bremont, Osprey, Scarpa, Helsport, Global Rescue, Drytech, Aclima, Non-Stop Dogwear, Nord-Norge, Sparebanken Vest, among some others I'm sure. She's not hustling for funding. I wonder if the Chinese government, after opening Shishapangma for Purja, denied her permission to climb Shishapangma and Cho Oyu because she's a connected Westerner.
The Sherpas climbed Dhaulagiri as a hangover peak. The went back up to save a bunch of dudes. Not sleeping for 4 days. There is no beating that. Ever. Who cares about records.
The equipment gets better and better. No wonder it’s becoming faster and faster. Without high technology gear it’s more fascinating. Anyway it’s a remarkable performance.
With out the sherpas carrying her stuff and fixing lines for her.. it's impossible.. hats off to the sherpas doing it with her all the way who's names we don't even mention 🙏
In June this year I climbed the next tallest mountain in Norway called Galdhøpiggen which was 2469 metres. It was so cold that I thought I was about to die even tho I had enough clothes and when u r climbing down it so scary. I was praying all the time🙏
My first trek was Annapurna base camp 4200metres , then I went to mardi himal base camp 4500metres, then pachpokhari 4100metres , and thorongla pass 5400metres
The guy didn't get permit to climb the last mountain by the Chinese Govt and he had to wait for a month,also his mother was sick so he had to stop for a bit.Other wise he would've completed it in 4 and half months.
Nim is the first to claim 14 peaks in record time. As he said, western media will be covering it way more than a Nepalese plus the funding was well different.
Great achievement for anyone, man or woman. I don't want to be negative, just interested... I wonder what the finances and sponsorships are for this and climbs like these. She's obviously has a lot of talented people helping, equipment and all the travel & logistics she mentioned. People need to be paid, organised, it's a very expensive endeavour, obviously into the several $100,000's... over $1m? 🤔
Wondering that too. It must be several 100 000 for sure. The equipment load they need to take along is almost a whole truck-full. I don't want to be negative. I think achievements in adventure sports are amazing. But I'm kind of getting bored by westerners with a lot more financial privilege attempting to "break records". Why are we so obsessed about these things? Himalays belong to the sherpas, no westerner will ever really authentically break any record there without the sherpas. So it's kind of ridiculous.
2023, NIMS set the Foundation. It's like anything else in life, "See someone do something.. and it's up to you to do it better than that person." Moving on.
Shame on you kristin for dropping your team behind, so selfish! Without them sherpa’s you can never do that! Who would carry your stuffs? You never put a line and tie a single rope 👎🏻 the whole mountaineering world knows
It’s Manaslu, Shishapangma and Cho Oyu that’s remaining. She’s currently at manaslu, but has problems with getting the visa approved by china for the last two mountains because of some new corona wave
@@AS256 the representation and headlines will make it clearer for those who doubt themselves or others because of their sex. It’s a great example in a man dominating sport🏔
Comparing the average lad to the average lassie is no contest, the lassie will usually be mentally and physically weaker. However, there is other areas in life where one will surpass the other, and vice versa. So there should be no competition, for God created both uniquely for different roles in life, yet to be loved and valued equally.
Physically, absolutely, men are stronger, but mentally? Its essentially equal. I mean, all this means is, the very top percentage of women could achieve this, but it's possible nonetheless
oh, if it wasn't for the healthy sherpas to help her, she can have been able to do this?? , she should know that nims ' journey has caused many unexpected events , or else he will let her breathe smoke rather than just 6 months and 6 days .
Nope.. money and resources won't get you to the top of K2, or Annapurna, or Kangchenjunga my friend. Those mountains are on another level of difficulty and you need to be experienced and skilled to attempt them. Even Everest.. the most accessible of the 14 simply because of the sheer number of people willing to get you to the top and back.. a storm, a bad decision, your own biology and how you react to the altitude will all get you killed in an instant (or very, very slowly). I know what you're getting at, but this isn't that. At all.
Not a feat of physicality but a feat of wealth. Give her a prize for being rich. There are 1000’s of women capable of this physically. This is a non-story.
She wants to show that women are as strong as men in the mountains ?? That there are no differences? Totally wrong motivation , women you were not made to be equal to men in everything , just like men can't take the place of women in everything. Nimsday's motivation was to show the world that if you combine goodness , faith and hard work nothing is impossible , this is just pure corrupt feminism , all wrong .
@@Ass_of_Amalek … Copy that. The Himalayan Mountain Range is rightfully called “The Rooftop of the World” Let me encourage you to watch *14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible* It follows an all SHERPA TEAM that climbs all 14 8000ers in 8 months. As someone whose been climbing for 40 years it’s the most impressive climbing achievement… EVER. BTW when Climbers cross the 8000 meter line it’s known as “THE DEATH ZONE” due to the tremendous beating the body takes at this elevation. Good travels my friend 🙏🏽
Why? You should be wondering why your morning news show had today in the studio an actress talking and laughing about her new up coming series/film on…….Apple+ yes folks not a bbc series but another competitor…can’t make it up. A good 20min or there about.
Why did she have to make a statistically incorrect and political point instead of just celebrating the feat? Men are on average much stronger than women and more capable to perform physically hence the great difference between records in sports and athletics. Strong outlier women are exceptions that proves the rule.

Nims dai struggled with. Money and after morgaging his house he bearly got any money to do this humangous task. Now some privileged gal wanna break record well good luk but his purpous was way beyond your imagination and yes you cannot compete with that man. If he would have that much money he had done in 3 monts time. Or many be in lesser time. 3 8 thousand meters he cliembed in 48 hours no way you'll be able to do this in 10 lifetimes.
Right but Nims or Nirmal had funding setbacks in between his climbs which further delayed his climbs... Also clearance from the last Chinese authorities took time too. Breaking a record is a very western idea. Whats convenient today with all the technology would've been much more difficult 10 years back. Sherpas are people born in the laps of these tough terrains & without their assistance with the local knowledge of terrain any white man would be dead. Pissing & claiming lands is a very white thing to do.
If anyone is wondering what that colourful thing around her neck is, It's a garland of flowers that people in Pakistan give to others as congratulations. 5 of the 14 highest peaks are in Pakistan.
Purja a gravi le K2 en hiver. Cette femme a-t-elle aussi gravi le K2 en hiver? Purja a secouru un alpiniste en difficulté. Cette femme a-t-elle secourue un alpiniste en difficulté? Cette femme devrait avoir honte.
