Ireland's stupidest problem

[evilmaddox]

I think this is what happens if you go bouldering the day after Lá Fhéile Pádraig. =D

I'd like to try that rock someday though, it looks like a good move.

[darrensurrey]

Looks like a real struggle... but worth it for the view, eh? :o)

[alacarteblanche]

It's crazy to do highballs like this without a rope or a pad. Sick!

[ryannosaurus6]

legit

[xpez]

I belong with this climbing group

[aleguillen782]

jajajaja

[mobeirn]

Believe me, all these guys are expendable

[SnakeCharmer926]

Dudes! Proper spotting techniques, hello? Goll.

[mobeirn]

I could have called it Ireland's most pedantic problem (pedanticest?)



[Lunartrek]

@mobeirn I dunno, not really overly concerned with technique here or anything, its just a really short problem with very few moves. Experts would surely crush this problem, but I dare say it takes a fair bit of skill and strength to do so as there are very few options for variety of ascent.

[ArjayBlogs]

Ironically you said "stupidest" :P "most stupid"

[CuSlackline]

@ArjayBlogs

Ironically, you said "most stupid."

[Lunartrek]

@CuSlackline Well, I don't know the context in which this phrase was used, but "most stupid" is actually the correct way to state a level of elevated stupidity relative to something else that is decidedly less stupid. "Stupider" or "stupidest" are actually incorrect was of saying the same thing.

If that wasn't the context, well, I can't be bothered to dig through Youtube's poorly accessible comment database. This bitch needs a search feature or a filter of some variety.

@ArjayBlogs

It's in the dictionary....

Try some of my funny boulder problems in Brazil, I think you'll like!

Search for "boulder tô calmo ouro preto"

[mobeirn]

Well if you ever make it over here it'll be waiting....

[muscariaman22]

It seems easier than it is ;)

[28277nissan]

Ireland's easiest problem...attempted by stupid people ?

[mobeirn]

@28277nissan Come and have a go if you think you're hard enough...

[28277nissan]

@mobeirn A long way for me to come an attempt Ireland's stupidest problem...Good vid though I like it !

[Lunartrek]

@28277nissan Well, they are surely not pros by any stretch, but that doesn't mean this very short problem isn't powerful. It's a steep overhang with limited good options. No way this is the easiest problem in Ireland, you're just overly egotistical, duder. ;-)

[28277nissan]

@Lunartrek Hay dude dont read too much into it ! I luv the vid and Im of Irish background...Plenty of sarcasm in my initial posts !

[Digdigs2]

Awesome! I love silly sh*t like this! There's a prob like this at my fave bouldering area - I keep trying it at the end of the day 'because it's just 2 feet high, how hard can it be...?' it still awaits the first ascent...

[riggs129]

This just...made my day.

[zorphias0]

damn this is some intense free soloing, where r the parachutes tho?

[mobeirn]

@zorphias0 We don't need parachutes, we're haaaaard....

[781391]

nice metrorock shirt man

[tugboattait]

Dyno for it ;)

[bombzom]

btw the song is hurt not when the man comes around.

[martialme84]

Great one, mate! ;)

[spoonhombre]

haha, love the video. Great impromptu moment on a holiday...

[clayounderwood]

pretty irresponsible...where are the spotters and where is the saftey mat????

[ROBwithaB]

For once, an accurate video title.

"Climbing is an inherently dangerous activity and may lead to serious injury and death".

But not today.

Nice one.

[mobeirn]

You are right, safety first...

[daveypisek]

i would actually top rope it before i would try a serious send! ^^

[twitchman27]

lol. that's awesome

[Dreampanos]

Hahahaha... what's the grade for this one?

[mobeirn]

Grade is ES (Extremely Stupid)

[jakcie100]

Hey folks, where is that problem placed in Ireland??? cheers.

[VAIDOOKAS]

I guess there is easier way to send this one :)

[moonwang]

looks like a good laugh..

[snowyywwinters]

i wanna give that a try, looks like an awesome problem

[ClimbingChrispy]

Climbing isn't how high you go or even where you're getting but the experience while in the climb, your emotions, instincts, creativity, and achieving a goal in the end. So in my opinion this problem is kick ass! so little but so creative, I wanna know who the first guy was to hop on this tiny rock and send it! Props to him!

[gerardo231]

stop saying bullshit if you would climb everyday problems like this believe you will get bored

[ClimbingChrispy]

Dude, come on. Just be chill, I mean do you really wanna start the whole mess of dissing someone over a comment... really? That's just tasteless, man.

[balloydspiritsoul]

Very stupid indeed!

[thebigeasy2008]

[thtsritesun1212]

[raybeeze]

At least the crux is close to the ground.

[mobeirn]

Its probably more of a rock than a boulder, or maybe a pebble..

[brodski1]
