Star of the Netflix Documentary 14 Peaks, Nimsdai tragically lost his life on July 30th, 2026.

He was the first person to summit all fourteen of the world’s 8000 meter “Death Zone” peaks in less than seven months. We had the pleasure of interviewing Nims, and his energy, love of adventure, and life were incredible. His life inspired many, and he will be dearly missed.

We had the honour of interviewing Nims in 2025 and we want to take a moment to honour his legacy.
