Tashi and Nungshi Malik (born 21 June 1991)[1] are the first siblings and twins to climb the Seven Summits and reach the North and South Poles and complete the Adventurers Grand Slam and Three Poles Challenge.
The Malik twins (Tashi and Nungshi) originally hail from Haryana state, India.[2] They were born to an Indian Army officer, Col Virendra Singh Malik, of Anwali village[1] in Sonepat District of Haryana and his wife Anjoo Thapa of Uttarakhand. The Malik family is settled in Dehradun after Col Malik's retirement from the Indian army.[3]
The girls attended several schools in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Manipur, including Lawrence School, Lovedale, near Ootacamund. In 2013 they completed graduation in Journalism and Mass communication from Sikkim Manipal University. They have a Certificate in Peace and Conflict Resolution from School of International Training in Vermont, United States. In 2015 the twin sisters graduated in Sport and Exercise from Southern Institute of Technology, Invercargill, New Zealand.[4][5]
The Malik sisters trained at the Nehru Institute of Mountaineering in 2010.[3] On Sunday, 19 May 2013, they scaled Mount Everest, becoming the first twin sisters to do so.[6][7] They were joined at the summit by Samina Baig and they placed the flags of India and Pakistan together to symbolise peace.[8][9][10]
The twins participated in 'Climbathon 2013' where they scaled a virgin peak at 21000 ft funded by Indian Mountaineering Foundation in August 2013. They are also the first female twins to complete Seven Summits, complete the Explorers Grand Slam and the youngest people to complete the Three Pole Challenge.[11] On 16 December 2014, after climbing Mount Vinson in Antarctica, they became world's first twins and siblings to scale the 'Seven Summits' together.[12][13]
After scaling Mount Everest on 19 May 2013 they completed the Explorers Grand Slam on 15 July 2015 in just over two years.[14] They are the first Indian and South Asians to complete the Explorers Grand Slam.[15]
In September 2019, Nungshi and Tashi led Indian 'Khukuri Warriors' in the World's Toughest Race: Eco-Challenge Fiji that pitched 66 teams of adventure athletes from 30 nations against forces of nature and against each other traversing 671 km of rugged Fijian landscape, ocean, rivers, lakes and jungles using dozen adventure activities. They became the first and only South Asians to participate in this global adventure race.[16][17]
