Celebrated climber Nirmal ‘Nims’ Purja, who commandeered an illegal helicopter landing at Everest high camp recently, has now faced another roadblock from the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal as the aviation regulator refused to grant him a permit for skydiving in the Everest region.
At least 12 skydivers including world champion Espen Fadnes and legendary climber Nirmal ‘Nims’ Purja successfully skydived in the Everest region as Nimsdai Skydive officially launched its extreme sports initiatives in Nepal.
