this video is dangerous. please understand that this is nothing like proper anchoring and is completely unsafe.

This is not a good video. He doesn't use any redundancy; it's nice to have backup if one thing fails.
-
well....thats one way to make yourself look like an idiot in the climbing community
-
wow really? you didnt explain how to thread the rope through, and a possible safety rope. you are not giving proper and safe information
-
im a novice.. your videos are poor and i dont wanna go out there and kill my self. make better vids!
-
Like every one else said. And although expansion bolts may work fine in granite etc. They are certain death in sand stone.

Thaha!!!
If you're climbing with only one bolt all the time, it's a f*ckin' wounder that you can stand on the top of the wall an learn sth like this!!!
Maybe you guys should write sth like "Don't try this at home" at the end ;D
Greets from the eastern Alps!

Another thing you want to remember is to sit as close to the edge of the cliff as possible, without anchoring yourself in to anything.
-
WOW!! That guy is a climbing instructor?? WTF

What a pointless video
C'mon man... these are as bad as the last "expertvillage" videos. If you are going to show it show it all. Be anchored while setting it up. Show clipping into BOTH bolts for an actual anchor set up (equalized, redundant, and so on), and put the hardware on the rope end of the slings because sure as shit.... someone is gonna watch this and go set their anchor up JUST LIKE THAT! Please please do these videos like someon's life depends on it. This is not a finished anchor folks. Be aware!

+1... this is a horrible video and better off not watching it. Expert Village videos in general are poorly done and sub par at best. Videos like these give the impression that Expert Village is merely trying to take advantage of people with no knowledge of what they're watching and will consider almost anyone a so called "expert".
