14 Peaks - Nothing is Impossible on Netflix

“Nepali mountaineer Nimsdai Purja embarks on a seemingly impossible quest to summit all 14 of the world's 8,000-meter peaks in seven months.”

In the end, he took 6 months and 6 Days :shock: 8-)

As a feat, this beggars belief. Messner took 14 years ...

Died in a single vehicle bike accident aged just 56

I know this has been debunked by ‘experts’ on here but I really think the LG TV speakers should run alongside the LG soundbar to fill out or enhance the sound but its TV or Soundbar but not both

You'll also have to sweet talk the Scots on the forum to let you know the location of the S*cr*t R**d

The first two rules of the S*cr*t R**d are…..

If Dave doesn’t deserve to know where the secret roads are, then no one does…

Yeah it's really nice but for one night, it was a treat...

We stayed in in B&B's along the way but the one Hotel we did stay in was Shieldaid Lodge near Gariloch.

Highly recommended - awesome collection of Whiskys

My trip around the NC500 was in the summer 2002 so not much help as it was almost entirely empty. It wasn't a "thing" back then so we almost had the road to ourselves.
