Why We Climb: A View from the Top of the World | Nima Rinji Sherpa | TEDxIOM

At just 18, Nima Rinji Sherpa made history by summiting all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks. But in this talk, he reveals that the biggest challenge wasn't the altitude—it was conquering the doubts, the stereotypes, and the fear.

Nima shares the intense, life-altering lessons learned in the Earth’s most hostile environment, the Death Zone. More than just a record-breaker, Nima is a passionate advocate for #SherpaPower, challenging the global perception of his people and demonstrating that true resilience comes from self-belief and a clear sense of purpose.

Discover the secrets to finding confidence, embracing adaptability, and owning your identity, whether your personal "8,000-meter peak" is a professional goal or a life-changing dream. Nima Rinji Sherpa is a record-breaking Nepali mountaineer who, at the age of just 18, became the youngest climber in history to summit all 14 of the world’s eight-thousanders. Born in the Sherpa heartland of Nepal, Nima grew up surrounded by the Himalayas that shaped both his identity and his destiny. Inspired by the proud Sherpa legacy, he began climbing at an early age and soon embarked on expeditions that would place him among the legends of high-altitude mountaineering. His achievement is more than a world record—it is a story of resilience, youthful ambition, and the unyielding human spirit to push beyond limits. Beyond mountaineering, Nima advocates for preserving mountain culture, protecting fragile ecosystems, and inspiring young people to pursue their dreams fearlessly. His journey demonstrates how heritage, courage, and determination can redefine what is possible.
