why do people have to bring that stupid childish bullshit into climbing? i climb for myself, no one else. idc if climbing a v14 is harder or easier than running a 2617 10k or jumping 2.25. it doesn't matter.running and climbing r 2 different sports, it's impossible to compare them and say which is harder. just think back to why you started climbing, was it because it was harder than running or was it because it freed your soul and it was just you and the rock, no one else, nothing else mattered?
There is no gauge for things that hard. They all fall under the category of "Physically impossible" unless you are Sharma or other genetically blessed super hero people. No one here can say "Climbing a V15 is easier than running a mile in 2 minutes". That is like saying shooting a basketball into a 12 ounce glass is easier than shooting one into a can of coke. Neither is possible for you.
Everybody could eat their own shoe if they wanted. Not everybody could jump 2.25 or climb V15. The point is to estimate how many people can do something, and then use that as a guage of how difficult it is. It's not super accurate, but it's better than guessing.
Ex. I'm pretty confident that running a 2617 10k is harder than climbing a V15, since only one person has done the former, and a few have done the latter. Maybe more people could run 2617, but only one can/has do it for sure.
it put things into perspective. it isn't negative, it just means he is human just like the rest of us. and makes what he does more tangible for those who aspire to push themselves.
Muito massa,sem dúvidas que chris sharma é o melhor do mundo,sem chance.
abraço.

Lebron James could jump and hang on to the top hand hold.

He can touch the top of a backboard(13 feet) Maybe he can jump higher than that. How tall is this boulder?
ianedwards19 2 years ago
the top hold is a little harder to hang onto than a basketball hoop, just guessing.
Besides that, who cares? Quit trying to compare sports.

wrong.
ianedwards19 2 years ago
Let's say that if you can high jump 2.25 you can touch the top of a backboard (if you think that's fair).
67 guys on the iaaf list jumped 2.25 or higher in 09. Not counting guys who don't compete in high jump but can touch the top of a backboard.
How many guys climbed a V15 in 09?
JacktheDaniels 2 years ago
How many people ate their own shoe in 09? Probably less than 67. That doesn't mean it's more impressive.

you can build one out of wood and if there is enough holds on it it can be that cool , just make a worthwhile plan and get working!
theres also companies who make that type of wall and they also make some for everyone , even people at home , but i really dont know about the pricing
