Dean Potter

[srfrr]

Sometimes a persons annoying "yeahs" can push you through the crux of a climb and get you to the top. Dean has a mouth and it obviously didnt bother him...

[climbingisus]

This is awesome

[theservantofHim]

This dude is a thousand feet in the air, and she tryin to break his concentration. she acts like this sort of thing is a race and its somethin u wanna rush. I think she wants to cololect his life insurance money

[chogorisufi]

Love it at 2:26 when the video is mute...

[chleonardoch]

The guy is sick and dying woman YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH, YEAH po dexa the guy if I was breathing he would send her the fuck

O cara ta morrendo de cansado e a mulher YEAH,YEAH,YEAH,YEAH,YEAH po dexa o cara respira se eu fosse ele mandava ela se ferra

[xpez]

[ThatsKickAss]

happiest moment of my life when the sound cut at 2:12

[jeandsign]

wtf!...shall up bitch! ha ha ha

[blinkbiker87]

@ProductionsMashton haha its his wife...now his ex wife. climbers tend to encourage each other though...so if you have watched any climbing vids in the past this isn't really any different than any others

[MidnightStar1000]

@Zufuru18

A human hand?!

[itzHarlanBK]

1 day ago when you are reading thid do not stop or else something bad will happen! (sorry about this) this girl's name is summer, she is 15 years old and has blonde hair,many scars, and she has no ears. she is dead. if you don't copy this to more than 5 videos, she will appear one dark quiet night when you are not expecting it beside your bed with a knife and going to kill you. this is no joke. if you send this on 5 more videos something good will happen to you

[MisterBouncyBounce]

not trying to sound like a dick but ever since i saw free soloing i don't really feel like watching ropes again. i mean i kn ow its hard as shit even using a helicopter to get to the top but free soloing makes ropes look like training wheels.

[adithyakiran16]

@MisterBouncyBounce true :)

[adithyakiran16]

@MisterBouncyBounce so true 

[usmcslater]

That annoying girl happends to be Deans wife.

[seneca175]

[frankie4667]

[MrRocktrees]

Get it dean. YEaH!

[fernandog07]

She's his wife, the girl supporting him

[fernandog07]

She's her wife, the girl supporting him.

[dangerouswater]

Well if I was Dean Potter I would not piss her off while she is belaying me....

[jefnino62]

[TheApolaustic]

[Squishy31097]

Is he trapped there now? xD

[iclass100]

good

[stacky512a]

is she in bed or climbing?

[snopup02]

@ProductionsMashton That was his wife, Steph Davis (now separated).

[Havegooda]

@snopup02 After watching the video, I think I know why they separated.

[globe255]

Nah thats nothing. I climbed the very same rock and place back in 1993, BUT! i did it backwards AND! without safty line. I was under the artist name: Mr Rock Backwady.

[qwert371]

@globe255 really this one time i did a back flip and landed in a big pile of bullshit

[globe255]

@qwert371 Well thats a soft landing i guess. Anyway, from time to time i see people who are jealous because of my achievements-:)

[GioDimatteo]

Turn on the vuvuleza button to drown out the noise.

[MrRoaldbe]

just turn sound off



[Mrbananaramamania]

i dont care who the woman is in the background, she is the single most annoying person in the world

[rafito1212]

@Mrbananaramamania hahahahahahahaha

[Atlaspower78]

Yeah, go on... I'M GOING ALREADY!!!. :P

[crossnsf]

that guy should shut up i would kill him once i got up there he is so annoying yaa.... you got it .....i would be yelling up to him no shit shut up you idiot

[xxsassysazxx]

@crossnsf its a girl you nonce.

[tennis4live]

if your climbing sth. like this you need motivation

[crossnsf]

i know but you can over do it and she was

[jatoxa]

@crossnsf It's his -ex-wife Steph Davis who's also a climber, you should really look it up.

[crossnsf]

i dont care who it is she he is fucking annoying i climb and i know people including me need encouragement but she was over doing it by a long shot

[aldenclarke]

Ha ha, I agree.

[MrJoeydali]

how to they tape this

[r1skate]

The camera person is hanging from rope or a set of ropes from the top. At 1:09 you see something come into view. That is the rope.

[huyiy]

ghost hand at 3:21 left side

[sliq1]

@ProductionsMashton it's his ex wife - probably one of the best female climbers, Steph Davis

[davervr6]

its his wife

[teacherWG]

This guy is crazy!

[quhawks48]

dang, does it let up at all? The crux looks like 75 feet long.

[jugh123]

You bellend. That so is dean potter. And you misspelt 'definately'. Lolz.

[ubercamel]

its spelt definitely lol

[papamois]

just hearing her breathing says everything

[evanescence1984]

u mean him :) not her

[moodrey]

how did he set up an anchor to belay from? he has ran out of gear by the end of the climb

[aenoether]

a) desert cracks = trad gear + bolt anchor at the top (frequently, don't know about this route)

b) anchor already in place -- note the presence of a person with a video camera. ;)

[petepiaire]

im pretty sure he based jump from the top at the end . saw that in a movie , cant remember which one. Google it maybe youll find out .

[bikeclochard]

It's called "first ascent"...

[anselmej]

the other one cannot shut his mouse !?

[DIXZA]

climb climb

[aikidophreak]

Nice climb, good work there.

As much as Iam for cheering someone on, that one person needs to STFU already

[johnnyBird512]

thats his wife.

[soxpatscelts12]

o you guys think your good i climb all the way to heaven

yeah i said heaven

[thesubaru123]

That's nothing son I can climb to infinity and beyond, bu kep practicing you'll get better. LOL

[plutoplatters]

damn.. shut the mouth annoying

[DougDareToClimb]

This looks as though it has extreme strain on the arms, but seriously it's a lay back ALL the way up. It really can't be that hard.

[huyiy]

lol get on it

[ryryryan85]

ur a dumbass!

[ADPathos]

Since when is liebacking on a thin crack easy you tool?

[DougDareToClimb]

Sorry why am I a tool? I was simply suggesting.

[b4oh]

[teahupo26]

post a video if ur all that,i wud love to see a 5,14 of u. go for it back up ur boast. u can`t `cos ur full of shit. and steph davis is at best average u stupid sepo cunt.

[campusmang]

a woman that can climb v10 is at best average..CRACK HOUSE ROOF SON, YEAH I KNOW V10 IS SHIT JUST LIKE 5'14 IS, WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU CARE ABOUT A 5'14 SO MUCH, THAT GRADE IS NOTHING TODAY!!!!11GET A CLUE, GET WITH THE STANDARDS, YOU ARE NOTHING!!!11

[newmb321]

@campusmang dude your stupid

[teahupo26]

the guy shouting is actually really fuckin annoying. i keep waiting for dean to shout "shut the fuck up"

[pedrock222]

that "guy" is his wife, the amazing Steph Davis, and it helps to have that kind of encouragement when you're doing something challenging

[teahupo26]

oh i`m sorry i`ve actually never done anything challenging before-i`l be sure to get a male sounding woman to shout yaaa yaaaa at me alot to help me along in future. personally wife or not i`d throw some gear at her!

[ElTheJono]

hmmm when i hear a high-pitched voice i typically think it's a woman but i dunno, maybe some people automatically think "dude" when they hear a high-pitched voice.

and the gear you'd want to throw at her would probably come from the front of your pants because she's forking hot.

[campusmang]

dont reply to this u dumbass just shut the fuck up and dont type!!! PWNED

YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT CLIMBING, WE NEED ENCOURAGEMENT, WE NEED INFORMATION ON HOW TO NOT DIE YOU FUCKING RETARD!!!

[teahupo26]

i know nothing about climbing?? newbie-i`m a climbing instructor,surf instructor trained life guard and personal trainer. believe i know what im talkin bt when it comes to both encouragement and climbing skill. you know nothing apart fom the name of some climbing ho!go fuck yourself and keep ur shit to yourself. looser!!

[campusmang]

fagget-

i have seen multiple slide show presentations out west, with the girl u just called a dude.

STEPH DAVIS IS FUCKING HOTT YOU HOMO

lets do a little tick list check

OH HOMO I SENT 5'14 FOR THE FIRST TIME BACK IN '01, BOULDERED AS HARD AS V13/14 AND YOU STILL DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE FUCK A CRATER IS!!!!IF YOU KNOW SO MUCH TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS TO CRATER!!!!1dumbass!!GO LOOK UP THAT COMMON LINGO IF YOU ARE SUCH A OLD SCHOOL OLD TIMER HAS BEEN!!!!

[five14sac]

when in doubt...

[drfelatio]

I love the footwork when he gets into the really thin stuff. If my footwork was half as good as that I'd be happy.

[Justyburger]

at the end he climbs quite a way from his last fixing. Respect!!!

Yeeeaaahhhh!!!

[AllimacDotDk]

Yeah, 'cos he didn't what to carry a #4 cam...

[Altayayo]

Yeah.....YA.....Get it Dean...YAAA...NICE....YA.....A­lright....You Got it....YA...Niiice...Go On Dean......Yaa

Wife or not...its annoying.

[robotsweat]

I agree it might take away from the flow of watching the video on the internet, but the verbal reassurance from below is a great way for you to be reminded that you're actively being protected by someone who is paying attention to your progress; upward or earthword, as the case may be.

[maluta]

yeah, but if they are shouting all the time, you can't be 100% sure that they are paying atention, giving your support once or twice is enough... i get really nervous when i'm climbing and i here people saying what should i do...

[obdandzigzag]

for some people it is the opposite

[kyhangdog]

Here's, among other things, the main thing that separates climbers like him, from hangdogs like me. Notice his breathing is really hard at one of the crux's. Then notice how he is able to get it under control, and keep moving. I'd yell TAKE!@

[DonaldBumsfeld]

as soon as he could he just got right inside that crack haha

i love it, good job

[demonsheep]

Though it is funny how climbers, even myself, sound like they are having sex when motivating people.

[MrColoradoBlack]

caioton,

That lady is his wife, better known as Steph Davis.

Steph Davis is an elite climber in her own right and I'm pretty sure they both know alot more about motivation than you ever will.

Go back to watching Mentos and Diet Coke videos ok tool...thanks.

[splf]

where's your humour man? you must be one self-absorbed individual

[kevme]

Yeah! Jesus! Tell that lady to shut the fuck up and let him climb in peace!!! Damn! It's distracting ME from even watching him! What a fuckin'loudmouth! He might fall because of her big mouth! Shut UPPPPP!!

[caioton]

tell the lady to shut up and let him concentrate!

[hogle06]

Nice runout at the top!
