☆ This teen became the youngest person to summit the world’s highest peaks. Now he wants others to follow in his footsteps
  + stars: | 2024-10-26 | by ( Helen Regan | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +9 min
This month, Nima became the youngest person to summit all 14 of the world’s highest peaks, but the 18-year-old Nepalese mountaineer is already getting ready for his next big feat. His father, Tashi Lakpa Sherpa, has climbed Everest nine times, and at age 19 became the youngest person to summit without bottled oxygen. His uncle Mingma Sherpa became the first South Asian climber to summit the 14 peaks in 2011. Despite his record-breaking achievement, Nima’s climbs did not attract big-name sponsors, and he relied on his father’s 14 Peaks Expedition company for funds and logistical support. Dawa Yangzum Sherpa became the youngest Nepalese woman to climb the 14 peaks.

“They have become the fastest to climb all 14 peaks,” Tashi, told Reuters, quoting information from the base camp. Climbing all 14 highest peaks in a few months is a challenging feat, which is normally done by many climbers in years. They set the fastest climbing record by beating Nirmal Purja from Nepal who completed all peaks in six months and one week in 2019. "They have made a summit a short while ago," Madison told Reuters adding that the Norwegian woman was "extremely tough mentally and physically". One of the sherpas, the 17-year-old Nima Rinjin Sherpa, also becomes the youngest to climb K2, Tashi said.
