🕯️ A Tribute to Legends Forever 🕯️
Today, Yarsha Gladiators FC bows our heads in remembrance of the legendary Nirmal Purja (Nims Dai) and his incredible team, whose tragic passing on Board Peak Mountain, Pakistan has left the mountaineering world heartbroken.
Nims Dai was far more than an elite climber—he was a symbol of courage, resilience, leadership, and the belief that no dream is impossible. A former British Gurkha and proud son of Nepal, he redefined what humanity believed was achievable by becoming the first person to climb all 14 of the world’s 8,000-metre peaks in just over 6 months, a feat once thought impossible. Through Project Possible, he inspired millions around the world to dream bigger, push harder, and never surrender.
His words,
“Giving up is not in the blood.”
were never just a quote—they became a way of life for countless people across the globe.
Although their journey ended on the mountains they loved most, their legacy will never fade. Their courage will continue to guide future generations of climbers, adventurers, and dreamers.
To honour these extraordinary legends, Yarsha Gladiators FC will be holding a Candlelight Tribute, standing together in gratitude and remembrance for the lives they lived and the inspiration they gave the world.
May your souls rest peacefully among the highest peaks. Your footprints are etched into the mountains, and your spirit will forever live in our hearts.
Legends Forever. Never Forgotten.
Rest in peace, Nims Dai and team. Your climb continues through all of us. ❤️🏔️🕯️
