To me the craziest part of this is once they get to the top of a big sky scraper, pillar, they have to get back down? Some of these don't have a path to the bottom on the other side...
@0001kd that's how a 23 year old rock climber died....I forgot her name, but she was apparently one of the best......Getting down must be way harder than going up for these guys, no?
@Viggowildman they will usually either base jump down, or there might be easier descent via trail, and i have heard of people taking a copter down but the two previous methods are the ones i usually see used
@Viggowildman they probably have ropes you just cant see them. the camera men are at the same height and probably hanging from ropes maybe they ride back down on the same rope idk if thats possible
@solariis888 well i know there are none on the way up, but we're talking about getting down. are you saying they climb up as well as down with nothing? i did see one vid where they parachuted off
@bleedingxhearts2 usually you climb up one face and then hike down an alternate path. This is what we typically do when we climb trad on a pretty tall face to get back down.
Amazing! I'm not a climber but I have a question for anyone here who is. How do these free-climbers get down once they've reached the top of one of these rocks? Do they have to back-track the way they came up or is there usually an easier way dawn with ropes that they can go down? I'd imagine you'd be pretty tired once you got up, and not up for the task of climbing backwards, which I understand is the most difficult and dangerous type of climbing. Any serious answers really appriciated! Thanks
@GroovyPiano Most free climbers will self belay down. The normal climber will normally abseil down or rappel down. what they are doing is solo climbing, and soloers will either climb down an easier route, or with no other choice, will just downclimb the way they came up.
your hand and feet is so very powerful your body is like a air ... You are the only one that only use a bare hand and no equipment .. I salute you alain robert
@MrSpeedfightRichy i died doing a rope jump ,, sorta like bungy jumping accept its a giant swing.. Well he went back to a site to originally take down a swing tower he used a few months earlier and when he arrived he decided to do a couple swings. Well supposovely he used exposed ropes , and the friction caused it to malfunction. He fell .
Simply amazing to look at. That is brave people. Its a performance in artistically art. I think its a kind of playing with the death, but i must say i admire them 100%.
The official examination concluded that the ropes he used during the "controlled free fall" entangled because of an altered jump angle and that they had also been exposed to severe weather conditions the month before. Actually he did several jumps before the fatal one with no problems.
@Bdazz111 yes some of it in vegas some in Utah. The face climb on the arete is call caustic 5.11 it is a sandy mother,proud solo. I fell on the route to the left going to the anchors and hot the ground suffering a broken back, tailbone, pelvis, and both legs. Great video, Dan was an amazing man and part of his jump that went so wrong was the way the rope ran over each other from the different local of the jump site. Caused heat and then break.
@dchqsc If someone says chalk is cheating, then so are ropes and harnesses and shoes. Chalk is a climbing safety tool. I agree with you fully, and anyone who has climbed once knows chalk is neccessary.
@ltdex400guitarist Climbing naked (with no clothes does go without saying) with your man parts as a compass, rope, harness and shoes... Iron will is your chalk, and to decend... your ego infaltes to safely bring you an altitude appropriate for your dreams to fly you home. I understand.
it's not necesarily strength mate...technique has more to do with it than strength. altho i must admit seeing a man do one finger pull-ups is impresive.
body building focuses on other aspects. in rock climbing u develop muscle fibre rather than mass, but it depends on one's constitution...i have seen climbers with large bodies and then slender ones with just fibre...
this just proves that bodybuilders who say they dont use steroids are bullshit. this dude looks skinny, and hes strong as hell, while the bodybuilders... no. they just fail.
All that this video "proves" is that Osman and Robert are savage climbers, it has nothing to do with steroids. I lift and, or, boulder every day, the strength and size gains i have achieved are all natural. Have something constructive to say or shut up. You are ignorant.
Once again: I'm sorry, if I offended you by saying what I think, and when I was talking about bodybuilders, I wasn't talking about EVERY bodybuilder I believe in naturally large muscles, considering my grandfather was one, and he was buff like crazy, and they made him take a urine test every month because of his appendix condition. I don't think they've ever found steroids inside him.
Dan never needed steroids. Not only was he an amazing climber, but he also did construction. I know this because he worked and climbed with my cousin in South Lake Tahoe. Everything about Dano was natural.
Yes he must wear those pants, it`s in the french constitution.
