    Project Possible was the name of Nepali and former Gurkha Nims Purja’s ambitious climbing expedition. He climbed all fourteen of the world’s highest peaks in seven months. For context, the first person to achieve this feat was Italian Reinhold Messner, who took sixteen years to conquer all fourteen 8000+ peaks. At the movie’s beginning, the fastest...

    Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgenson’s 2015 first ascent of the Dawn Wall captured the world’s imagination. There were presidential phone calls, international media outlets, film and TV crews, and spectators. But things were still pretty basic for the two climbers up on the wall.
