The most difficult big wall climb on Earth

[phillezz]

They are taking fingering to a whole new level!

[gump12345678910]

I'm fucking sick of Redbull taking sports and blowing them out of proportion to make them look like the most extreme things ever filmed (While plastering them with Redbull logos and advertisements). Whatever happened to homemade extreme sports videos?

[touge242]

@gump12345678910 redbull happened. shit became mainstream cool.

[thespandexwizard]

Brilliant! But why go to the effort of all that videoing without showing us the whole climb!?! I want more!

The music could be a lot worse too. It could be Manowar of course but at least its not Cold Play!

[gonamok]

really tough sport climb, world class, but to call it a big wall is misleading. Congratulations on an awesome route

[Fucky0ufag1]

@gonamok How can you say that it's missleading to call this video a big wall climb?

[feolora]

wow both the topcomments are shit..

[Emarkyr1]

Impressive climbing, but where are the portaledges for this 'big' wall?

[thricefelt]

I suggest reading Reinhold Messners "The Big Walls" if you think this is the most difficult big wall on earth. HAHA try some overhanging dry tooling in the death zone, then see what you think! South face Dhaulagiri make this look like playing fucking tiddlywinks.

[tanman73191]

It is a bolted route...

How strenuous....

[slcash1]

looks like whut i did to your mom last night : /

not empressed

[golfboy85]

time to break out mah hammer...

[insidedasoundmachine]

not even close to the dawn wall in yosemite with tommy caldwell

[Maratona1969]

@insidedasoundmachine ..shut up you american bastards...everything takin place in europe is in your eyes "Not even worth / not even close" to something you have done in the USA...fuck off back to you country and dont bother us here.most of you out there wouldnt be able to climbe up some of our vertical walls

[RamonAllnightlong]

Isn't Fitz Roy in Patagonia higher?

[jerkpirate]

I like Redbull, but their climbing videos suckkkkk



[FuryoLeBaron]

Just ask Chris Sharma, Redbull fags... Using pinkie climbing, what the hell?

[David207rc1]

si el video es en españa y hecho por españoles porque esta en ingles p.d buen video

[naishelkz]

Type: Escalada Iker Pou on Demencia Senil 9a+...... and cry......

[smmenicucci]

how do you get down?

[Superjakopine]

Terroranschlag auf die Ringbänder :-)

[PheonixV2]

one problem, have they heard of punks in the gym? i want to see them climb that

[HarryTmitch]

I use to be able to do this, then I took an arrow to the knee

[XamericanX]

@HarryTmitch HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[inmysights88]

@HarryTmitch lol hahahah youve tried mercenary work??? miiigghhttt suit you.

[pigglesworth000]

Is the entire thing a sport climb? I saw bolts during most of that video...

[Naturalheather]

Tou jump down

[ifrit1596]

Awesome! Now how the fuck do you get down???

[mrBrookona1]

keep pressing 6

[SimbaCuntDog]

press 6 for smeagol

[TheNorthFace]

Iker and Eneko, well done!

[tenfiveracer]

hold 8 down llllllloooooooollllllllllllll

[rivadavias123]

Fitz Roy,Chalten(patagonia)

[12345JJBB]

Mt Thor

Baffin Island

I dare you redbull, I dare you.

[VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA]

@12345JJBB The route + hard of Thor is VI, 5.10 it the Pou do it with a hand tied to the back

[12345JJBB]

@VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA I don't know what that means

im guessing it means Mt Thor is a pretty easy climb though? (well, relatively of course)

[VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA]

@12345JJBB I was of joke with it from the hand to the back, only I want to say that there are harder routes, up to level 9, yes it pleases him, I recommend to you a video that is called a " Demencia Senil " it is a very small raise that shows what is a level 9a +.

[ClimbingChrispy]

Dawn Wall will be harder

[notabott]

pussys chuck norris did that with only his legs!

[THEmanTHATSwhite]

@notabott he could do it with his dick......

[de4dr4bbit]

how long before honnold frees it?

[easrth]

I LIKE THE MUSIC.

[lapopofighting]

@easrth WHAT DID YOU SAY?

[easrth]

@lapopofighting I SAID I LIKE IT, GODDAMMIT.

[StoneyCrook]

I think the most difficult wall to climb would be a smooth one...

[andyandythin]

cameraman is a legend

[AllPunxUnite]

"Go clean up Cerro Torre" - i second that.

Red Bull is being looked down upon by the ENTIRE climbing world.

[TheUnforgivenTo]

Two people dided making of this video

[rainman0915]

Correction, "the longest sport climb on earth" psh bigwall lol did u see that rack?

[AlSwearengen15]

Yeah right, try Mescalito on El Cap free. Nothing compares to yosemite! The music on this video is horrible too, by the way

[VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA]

@AlSwearengen15 The brothers Pou opened a new route level 8, 8 + in Yosemite, made the same thing in The Dolomitas, and in Totempol, stop saying bilges " the mount of my house is more difficultly..."

[AlSwearengen15]

@VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA So what? Tommy Caldwell's Dawn Wall has seven pitches of 5.14 and seven more of 5.13. And your quote doesn't make sense in English. My point is claiming that this is the hardest big wall climb in the world is an insult to all the climbers in Yosemite who are climbing just as hard if not harder

[VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA]

@AlSwearengen15 Man I have not raised any of these, but if the Pou say that this one is the most difficult, I believe them, because they have the whole credit of Having opened many new routes, since for example in Yosemite and different many all over the world. But good alone it is my opinion.

[AlSwearengen15]

@VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA I have no doubt that it is ONE of the hardest. But for them to claim it is THE hardest...I think that is self-inflating and insulting to climbers like Caldwell.

[VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA]

@AlSwearengen15 Surely have reason, and simple more had been to say: " one of the more difficult of the world " and all contentments ; D

[AlSwearengen15]

@VITOLLFOTOGRAFIA I agree 100%. ONE of the more difficult. Watching the video, no doubt it is heinous.

[PackardDog]

Redbull is gay as is this video. REdbull has no place sponsoring anything to do with climbing. they are a corporate wannabe sports company. Way to sell out Iker and Eneko. Oh and by the way...this is now where even comparable to real climbs in the rest of the non-redbull fake world. Idiots!

[NothinButPow]

There's no way this could ever even be close to topping Fitz Roy or The Trango Towers.

[koci45]

alex huber will solo that one :D

[nordemoniac]

Isn´t it dangerous to put your fingers in there? What if you loose grip? You could rip off the finger!

[smeghead666]

@nordemoniac nah it tends to just pop out ^_^ needs tension to hold

[SuperRageCraze]

The guy is fingering the wall with his middle finger at '5'

[terrorrname]

i thought those things were kids attractions!

[shaerue]

hold 5 down

[TadRapidly]

and the worst music on earth. ;-)

[TheIcelandicPatriot]

i would like to see you do that at night time when it's raining.

[TheIcelandicPatriot]

i would like to see you do that at night time when it's raining. 

[Sedrickthedrummer]

thumbs up if u randomly clicked on this after watching another video and u were drinking red bull at the time.

[VMFA134]

Thats a lie Cerro Torre all the way much more difficult!

[ambiguousheather]

Let's see that difficulty rating plummet when it's repeated by more humble climbers. Dave mcleod would destroy that route and downgrade it to a moderate difficulty for parapalegics

[michdudeada]

@ambiguousheather Damn right!! British climbers own trad!!

[tyresmoke]

redbull, work on your uploads, man the sound is mixed way too high.

[larsaldo1]

so ... and how they came down ?

[spats67]

K2 looks like a fairly big wall. Try that with your pussy red bull helmet on

[BeepimajeepBeep]

@spats67 Nanga Prabat looks like a good choice also.

[jeffonbike]

Yip - it really is the worst thing Red Bull ever did - having lef the compressor route with all the shit left - it´s just like you would get up from a picknick and leave all the waste. Clean UP!!!

[joynthis]

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

[MrRiffz]

Haters gonna hate

[lisergico21]

"players fingers"

[123monkeyhugger]

umm when the guy got up there i would have been light ahhhh! omg so hiighh! * passes out* *falls* thats me XD

[DuDuPing]

i've done it

my dreams !

[TheScottgb]

I thought the eiger was harder it looks much bigger

[GrueneBiene]

It's EASY. Yes, my name is Gordon Freeman

[sarvelaj]

Fuck Monos! hahaha

[RosesNightengales]

How long did it take to climb that rock?

[chrisofnottingham]

This video represents everything that is wrong with modern climbing.

[PaulWolf2007]

@chrisofnottingham no doubt, what a joke.

[ColleGabriele]

hey whats the song?

thanks

[nopainogain]

siccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkk!!!

[mikeeiley]

WHY HAVE THIS AWFUL NOISE IN THE BACKGROUND IT RUINS EVERYTHING CRAP!

[mikeeiley]

WHY HAVE THIS AWFUL NOISE IN THE BACKGROUND

[silveraxe6]

I can do that without hands

[seneca175]

Very nicely done, nice route, I'll try it once. (Although sad music, climbing must be more 'zen'likely with mellownew age music and so on ;))

[F1N1SHEDD]

i dont understand how do they know the cracks they connect their ropes to will be stable enough to hold a fall. Imo an idiotic sport, so so risky. NOT WORTH IT

[PardonMyRhetoric]

@F1N1SHEDD Rock climbing is an artistic to some climbers, a psychological journey for others, and everything in between. Why they take risks will most likely never be understood by a non-climber, but I can assure you that it is WORTH IT.

[jomak222]

That made my hands sweat looking at it! I don't think I'll ever be able to climb shit like that!

[snowbum121]

@jomak222 Not with that attitude!

[elsanchote]

shit easy i can do easy easy

[fullyAsianeric]

@elsanchote make a video then!

[datapolo]

The title sounds like something from the tabloid press...

[ixkrakenxi]

ahuevo los hermanos pou son los mejores venga iker a muerte

[vkosminen]

Don´t even know any more of the project than the demo, but who can seriously claim the hardest anything in the world as long as it´s bolted?

[Petegrin1]

DOPE!

[KATOMATE01]

lol a lot of the hard parts they skipped....like the last 50 feet are impossible

[mulpro]

Orbayu route is arguably the world's hardest multiple route in big walls... WOW

[OriginaalRudeBoi]

red bull now sponsors wall fingering

[oXHorizonXo]

the getting down bit would be shit scary...

[alejandro87d]

That's Eneko "monodedo" Pou... I think that he really knows how to use those single fingers

Check him out on "Demencia Senil"

[HosteDenis]

@alejandro87d Actually, that would be Iker Pou...

[AlSwearengen15]

That's a big claim that this is the most difficult big wall climb in the world. Tommy Caldwell has pioneered lines on El Cap that look harder than this

[IamTeHe]

funny the highest rated comments are the same thing

[Guiitar81]

Chuck norris can do that in few seconds...

[eRupT1v]

ok they made it to the top and now? how are they comming back down?

[hikerclimber007]

Redbull videos suck go clean up Cerro Torre

[michdudeada]

@hikerclimber007 I think that's a little unfair.

[9Skateboard7]

oh what if that whole mt. side just went from htis L to this _ that would stink

[BUCKYWHEATS]

So....... redbull is saying this is the hardest, after being worked on for two months, yet Tommy Caldwell and Kevin Jorgenson have been working on their El Cap route for upwards of four years?

Nice False Marketing.

[cwporterUCSD]

Anything that redbull sponsors in a f'ing joke, don't buy their products. Hands down Tommy and Kevin's project on Dawn Wall is harder.

[redfishclimbingfish]

seems rather easy compared to Tommy Caldwell's project on the Dawn Wall on El Cap. in Yosemite

[jackbhungry]

how do they get down?

[Vincentdienst]

@jackbhungry the descent is by the south face, 200 m high, very easy.

This video is on the west face, a little more than 500m high.

[fackinjacksack]

not the hardest big wall route any more. The Dawn Wall project is gonna get freed this spring..

[Kauzman01]

@fackinjacksack Probably not this spring. Too much water runoff. From what KJ told me, it'll have to be tried in the Fall in all likelihood, but thats not to say they won't give it a burn in the spring, just less likely to go.

[ulybaZZa]

@fackinjacksack Well, The Dawn Wall is unquestionably the shit, but Tommy and Kevin still have to complete it :) Not that I doubt that they will, but at the moment it's still a project.

[harakaz]

the cameraman has to be the greatest climber of all time

[mumraaaaa]

Fuck red bull, fuck commercial bolting in the mountains.

[therockclimber]

@mumraaaaa maybe not redbull BUT YES Fuck big wall bolting

[fackinjacksack]

@therockclimber why? you can't see the bolts until you're right next to them on the wall, and there's no natural protection on that face..

[lusteraliaszero]

seen some climbers who could probably endure being forced to having their pinky carry their weight.. doubts about these guys tho..

[GEOGEO33caher]

@TargetRender

They are going to abseil themselves.

[mumraaaaa]

After the Lama compressor route fiasco Red Bull should have no place in climbing, they don't give a shit about anything but making money. Fuck you Red Bull.

[tylerpienta]

@mumraaaaa and there drinks dont even taste good  monster is wayy better

[KeyValue11]

@mumraaaaa Thats why i'd rather drink Mad croc, Pure rush, burn or battery :)

[michdudeada]

@mumraaaaa I think that's a little unfair.

[solaceaker]

@mumraaaaa what happened?

[drjekill2986]

phuk that shet... thats a sure way to loose your phuking phalanges dood.

[NinjaThatLongboards]

Seem like an easy way to break a finger.

[TVjoakim]

I can do that with my ps3...

[brithisairways777]

nice vid but even better if you would basejuumped down

[252sampson]

holy shit.....

[Vinnygil]

mmm how the hell is this more intense than tommy caldwell and kevin jorgeson's project??

[fffaaabian]

terrible camera work, you could only see what the mountain kinda looked like at the very end of the video, otherwise it was just zoomed in on their finger or sum bullshit, i fuckin hate it, learn how to shoot a video fuckin dip shits

[Buitrex02]

HERMOSO!!!!!

[Vswchwrm]

WOOOW!

[benzesp]

I love pinky mono's!!!

[Tiki1597]

Maybe hardest in grade, but not so extreme like /watch?v=kbe49oWLt04 !

[jonathanpezman]

good job guys. I was doing some gnar gnar at the gym the other day so i feel you guys on that one

[stzzo]

@jonathanpezman Dude, you too? Get gnarly!

[nirvana613]

El Cap is also pretty tough

[77kylem]

I guess it was cool

[hamsterman81]

not even fun O.O

[Vamp1963]

I thought Mt. Thor was the toughest and effing cold rock as well.

[gb342002]

that is by far not the hardest climb in the world.

[Leninmarxcastro]

@gb342002

It's the hardest big wall climb, probably until Tommy Caudwell frees his project on El Cap with the dyno. Imagine several pitches of F8c+/9a!

[martinmedeski]

@Leninmarxcastro I think he did it with Kevin Jorgeson

[diderr01]

Holly broken fingers Batman.

[123abcbobcat]

your pinky, any other finger? oww!

[mgxiville]

Good climbing shoes, Tenaya!

[David3945]

whats the name of the song?

como se llama la cancion?

[RMRSproductions]

haha devo if u fall and ur finger gets stuck

[yzrider927]

oh god!!! the hard part is comin down

[KiLLeR007WaZHeRe]

lool is scary yea

[sc700]

wow....tommy caldwell should get outa yosemite and try some of this stuff

[urriel74]

how??

Obviuosly you have never been in Naranjo de Bulnes

[chinchapapa]

Rappelling by the sur face (that's the west face).

[SiThG0D]

lol wtf, how the hell they get down?

[Bornisen]

Red bull chopper?

[urriel74]

The south face is quite easy to climb, about 150 metres, only 4 pitches with max. IV, so it´s really easy to descend it

[BreakingHit]

Then show a video of u climbing it

[TheReggaeSummer]

xD yes
