Mountaineer and ex-British Gurkha Special forces commando Nimsdai Purja is a multi-record holder who became the first man to summit all 8000m 'Death Zone' peaks in less than 7 months. He also went on to summit K2 in winter without the use of oxygen. 

In this episode, Ant deep dives into Nims' unique mindset and finds out what drives him to do what he does so fearlessly.
