Name and Describe the main characters:
The main character of the movie 14 Peaks is
Nirmal “Nims” Purja. He has a funny and brave
personality and he never gives up on anything. He
has a team and they worked on the mission called
as Project Possible. The members in his team are
Mingma David Sherpa, Geljen Sherpa, Gesman
Sherpa and Lakpa Dendi. All of his team members
are also brave and they love to have fun and face challenges like Nims.
Favourite and most disliked scene:
My favourite moment was when they succeeded in climbing all the 14 Peaks in 7
months ad 6 days. Another favourite scene for me was when they returned home
from their big project after the great acheivement. It was a proud moment to see
Nim’s mom joining them at the base camp in an helicopter to celebrate their
success after climbing all the 14 Peaks. My most disliked scene was when Nims's
mother sadly passed away and also when one of the climbers died due to lack of
oxygen ebven though Nims tried his best to save him.
Summary:

enthralling mission of scaling all 14 peaks, that are all over 8,000 metres, in just
seven months during the spring season. However, due to his strong-willed nature
and his amazing team, this project, Project Possible, was done in 6 months and 6
days, breaking world records from around the globe and proving those people
wrong who thought this Project was just impossible.
