1, 2, 15 for the movie asks?

Thanks, Starspray! 💛

1. What is your current favorite film?

I really enjoyed 14 Peaks on Netflix, a true story about the Nepali mountaineer Nims Purja and his quest to summit all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks in 7 months. Nims’ journey is super inspiring, and the views atop the mountains are incredible.

Some constant faves are Arrival, Howl’s Moving Castle, and the LOTR trilogy.

2. What was your favorite film as a child?

The Great Mouse Detective and The Jungle Book are definitely contenders! Basil of Baker Street and Baloo would be a duo for the ages.

15. What is the funniest movie you’ve seen?

I have vivid memories of laughing a lot at 21 and 22 Jump Street, but I’ve only seen them once, and I don’t remember much about them! I also thought Barbie was entertaining, but it might have been the crowd; there was a lot of energy in that theater. Everyone was wearing pink; someone dressed up as a shark in pink stilettos because it was also shark week; and someone brought their dog. It was a time.

norwegian woman trying to break nims purja's 8000ers speed record to show "girls can do it too!" while purjas record was specifically done to highlight the issues sherpas and other HAPs face due to the industry/economy they live under, the immense skill of HAPs despite the fact they are often ignored by media, and the ecologically and culturally destructive nature of mountaineering-as-sport. like it is just soooooo indictive of how western moutaineering thinks and works that this woman can completely ignore all that to go "girl power!"

#climbing all 8000s is not a girl power moment climbing all 8000s to /beat an ethnic sherpas record/ honestly is digusting! #anyways she failed because china wont let her into tibet climb shishapangma which imo good thing #not like purja didnt spend MONTH begging china to let him do that on his run and basically only got to go do it because hes from the area #and the nepali government begged on his behalf. you know. the nation that SHARES A BORDER with tibet #anyways. western mountaineering is colonialism will always be colonialism and has always been colonialism #if u are white and thinking of climbing and 8000er literally do anything else 💖

The Documentary 14 Peaks : Nothing is Impossible

*Nothing is impossible* In a recent conference I attended, the speaker talked about The Netflix documentary *’14 Peaks: Nothing is Impossible.’* Hence, I saw it once again yesterday and got some amazing insights. ’14 Peaks’ follows a team of Nepalese mountaineers led by Nims Purja who attempt to summit the world’s tallest 14 peaks above 8000 metres in seven months as against the earlier record of…

Adventurer shares images from his CRAZIEST vacations - including skydiving from 28,000ft, skiing to the South Pole, and traveling to the edge of SPACE in a fighter jet

Adventurer Extraordinaire Luke Hepworth: Thrills, Spills, and World Records For Luke Hepworth, the typical vacation scenery of deck chairs and tranquil beach views just won't cut it. This 49-year-old adrenaline junkie has spent over two decades seeking out heart-pounding adventures that push the limits of the human body. From conquering a Guinness World Record on Mount Kilimanjaro to soaring through the sky at dizzying altitudes, his escapades are nothing short of remarkable. Skydiving from the Stratosphere One of Luke's daring feats involved a skydive from a jaw-dropping 29,000 feet over Memphis, Tennessee. The height was so extreme that he had to suit up with an oxygen bottle, a mask, and a military jumpsuit. During this skydive, he enjoyed a breathtaking two-minute freefall, soaring through the skies with HALOJUMPER, an outfit that specializes in high-altitude jumps. Luke vividly recalls his experience: "After jumping out of the plane on a crystal clear day, we experienced a two-minute freefall. As we descended through the clouds, I could feel the temperature drop, and my adrenaline was off the scale. When we released the parachute, it went from incredible wind noise to absolute silence. After landing, I wanted to go back up and regretted not booking a second jump. My aim is now to go skydiving over Everest." Chasing World Records and Pushing Limits Luke thrives on adventures that challenge both the body and the mind. He participated in the World Marathon Challenge in 2019, a grueling event that involves running seven marathons on seven continents in just seven days. It's a feat that costs a hefty $42,047, including flights, but Luke embraced the challenge, describing it as "the most demanding week of my life." He recounted, "We zipped between Antarctica, Cape Town, Perth (Australia), Dubai, Madrid, Santiago, and Miami. In total, there was more than 180 miles of running, 44,740 miles of air travel, minimal sleep, and one shower for the whole trip. If the running wasn't hard enough, the temperature variations from sub-zero to highs of 86°F added another dimension to things." From the Edge of Space to the South Pole Luke's thirst for adventure knows no bounds. He once flew to the edge of space, riding in the passenger seat of a MiG-29 supersonic fighter jet. The exhilarating flight included loop-the-loops and barrel rolls before reaching a staggering 60,000 feet, teetering on the edge of space. Not one to sit still, Luke also skied the last degree of latitude to reach the South Pole. During this expedition, he summited Mount Vinson at 16,050 feet, ticking off another peak on his list. These ventures were not just personal conquests; Luke used his journeys to raise funds for charity, particularly supporting Big Change, a UK-based nonprofit focused on empowering young people and schools. Looking Ahead: The Explorers Grand Slam and Beyond With several of the world's highest summits already under his belt, including Aconcagua and Mount Kilimanjaro, Luke is now setting his sights on the ultimate mountaineering challenge: Everest. In 2023, he plans to conquer the world's tallest peak, with the renowned mountaineer Nirmal (Nims) Purja as his guide. While he was unable to reach the summit on his last attempt, Luke embraces the wisdom that "it's the journey that matters, not just the destination." Looking to the future, Luke is ready for the next frontier: space. He has a trip scheduled with Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic in the coming years, considering Branson one of his biggest inspirations. With each adventure, Luke continues to live by the "get it done" attitude, perpetually in motion and always ready for the next port of call. For Luke, the world is a playground, and the adventures never stop. Antarctica might be his favorite destination, but anywhere that keeps him from being idle for too long is where he truly belongs.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again Any time I get down I just can’t help but be happy, sometimes I get so sad I tell myself that I’ll never be happy again and I really believe it but then a few hours will pass and I just can’t help but be happy or find something that makes me feel really good. The one thing that without fail always brings back my spirit is the mountains, mountaineering, and alpinists. Being a kid growing up in a small dead end town in Montana the only thing our shitty little valley had going for us we’re the mountains. Hamilton is In between the bitterroot portion of the Rocky Mountains and the sapphire mountain range. Growing up in the 21st century is hard enough as is let alone in Montana, the state sat at under a million people in population my whole life which to put in scale… Montana is the 4th biggest state in the continental US, the city of LA alone has almost 4 million residents alone. I hated where I lived I felt so disconnected from the whole world, I was always interested in fast fashion, luxury, fancy cars, high society, tall buildings, traffic, huge department stores. Mile long malls. Culture. So as you might be able to understand I absolutely despised my town and my life. Then one day something changed without anyone’s influence i suddenly adored my small town and I fell in love with the mountains I really couldn’t get enough I started getting into bouldering and rock climbing. I started going hiking every day and I started fishing more (I was always fishing and hiking as a kid and I was very talented at both i just never had a love for it before). And then I watched the documentary 14 peaks about Nims Purja and his project possible, I had never seen anything like it, and unlike everyone else I wasn’t interested in his coverage on Everest at all what I really was interested in was the mountain called K2, something bout it perked my ear and I ran with it, I went to the library and read every book I could on the mountain from biography’s of people who have survived k2, to the stories of tragedies, then down to the nitty gritty technical wordy books about the mountain, I have an immense knowledge of K2 that is completely useless to anyone around me besides for me I just can’t get enough something about it just pricks me some sort of way, I Nim’s entire project and story really infatuated me the way he believes in people and the way he inspires himself in such a confident not complex way really struck a cord with me, the way he respected his fellow sherpas and told their stories as much as his made the world for me. The nest thing I watched that completely grabbed me was the documentary on Marc-André Leclerc The Alpinist it effected me just the same way that’s Nims journey did except in a much honest heartening way as I’m sure you will understand if you watch and read his story. For them it’s/it was never about WOW LOOK AT ME I CLIMBED A MOUNTAIN IM COOL. It is always about the mental obstacles that they put themselves three or didn’t put themselves threw, with Marc-André Leclerc he described it in a way that when I was climbing he didn’t think about a single other thing then where his next step in going to be and he was able to just shut off his mind in an instant as soon as he hit the mountain and that’s exactly how I feel. Anyway my arms tired.

Hát ez azért ott biceg egy kicsit, hogy ha a korábbi téli expedíciókban lett volna tizenvalahány másik oxigénes mászó aki kötelet fixál meg tábort épít, akkor jó eséllyel meg lett volna mostanra már mászva a K2 télen is. De nem volt ilyen téli expedíció, mert azok a kalandorok a világ és a hegymászás, egy teljesen másik oldaláról jöttek. Az amit ők gondoltak a hegymászásról az abból a rendszerből nőtt ki, annak a tagadása volt, amiben az ő elődeik még aprópénzért megvásárolták ezeknek a mostani megmászóknak az őseit, hogy ha úgy alakul, akár nyugodtan haljanak is meg azért, hogy ők feljuthassanak a hegyre. 

Ezért aztán teljesen rendben van ez így, hogy a magashegyi hegymászás történetére az utolsó csillogó ékkövet, nepáli sherpák tették fel és ezt büszkén meg is mutatják a világnak és a saját népüknek.

Biztos lesz majd egy csapat a következő években, ahol senki nem fog használni pótlólagos oxigént és úgy másszák meg télen ezt a hegyet, de arról már csak a legelvetemültebb hegymászó-média fogyasztók és pókmajom mikroblog követői fognak értesülni. És ez így lesz jól.
