We are deeply saddened by reports confirming the death of Nirmal "Nims" Purja MBE.
A former member of the Royal Navy's Special Boat Service and the first Gurkha to join its ranks, Nims exemplified courage, determination and service throughout his remarkable life. His achievements in mountaineering inspired people around the world, but he remained a proud member of the wider Naval family.
Our thoughts are with his family, friends and all those affected by this tragic loss.
Fair winds and following seas, Nims.

I wish kids today knew how dominant prime LaDainian Tomlinson was.
- 142 TDs in his first 8 seasons
- 162 total TDs in 13 seasons
Simply ELITE.
