Think you can climb Mount Everest 14 times in 7 months?

Do you ever find a show with 15 seasons and get hooked on it for years? If it’s time to switch it up, watch the film 14 Peaks, where Nepali mountaineer Nimsdai Purja sets out on a quest to summit all of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks in just seven months.

1. Each mountain is over 26,000 feet

2. Training for just one of of these peaks takes months or even years

3. Less than 50 people have summited all 14 peaks

Why watch it? If you liked Free Solo, Dawn Wall, Meru, or any other other climbing and mountaineering films, then add this to your Netflix watch list.
