Only 45% f---ked
“I’ve been coming from mountain to mountain, and sometimes you feel like you’re actually fucked. But when you say you are fucked you are only 45% fucked.”
Mountaineer Nimsdai Purja ("Nim"), telling it like it is to climbers at K2 basecamp while trying to convince them to attempt the summit despite risks, setbacks, and low morale. From the film 14 Peaks: Nothing is Impossible (2121) which documents Nim & team's astonishing ascent of all 14 of Earth's 8,000 meter peaks in seven months.
Nim and team made the summit two days later and paved the way for 24 other climbers to summit as well.
