Got the video, got the book (Touching The Void), would love to see the whole talk that Joe gives here. He has a inimitable style to his presentation and phrasing on a subject he knows only too well.
Intellectually and experientially confident in his recall and telling, Joe is a consumate story teller of fact. Loved his Beckoning Silence, and looking forward to reading his other books. Best wishes Joe.

Its Simon not Steven

@ParliamentSpeakers Thanks for the response. I think it might be useful to put that information in the description; as someone who was interested in material that Joe gives himself, I wasn't frankly patient enough to wade through what seemed like filler to find the talk. I've seen many videos that purport to be speeches or talks given by someone that turn out to be just generic info footage gathered from all sorts of places--enough that it's 'on topic'--in order to get ad revenue from clicks.

Joe Simpson - modern British Hero.
What is this supposed to be? It's just clip after clip of Simpson being talked about by various media! Misleading title, wtf.
That said, I think he's amazing, and that's where my disappointment stems with this video. You're just trying to get ad revenue off of a bunch of crap. For shame.

@darsynia Hi there, thanks for watching the video. As Joe's managers it's helpful to have this showreel as a general introduction to Joe and his story for people who want to find out more about him. If you watch through to 2.20 you'll see Joe giving his talk, which I think you'll agree is hardly 'a bunch of crap'.
