Who is actually the best climber to have ever lived? Adam Ondra?
Intro 00:00
Traverse 00:36
Bouldering 05:47
Moon Board 20:56
Wow! Couldn't stop smiling with Ben Moon, Jerry Moffatt and Adam Ondra in the same show. You did great, Magnus!
absolutely legendary colab
Ah yes. Ben and Jerry’s. Great collab.
feel the same way, my face hurts from the smiling!
Idk why every best person of something starts has a name starting with Magnus like Magnus carlsen and now this dude
Having John Bachar and Alex honnold would have been better. They are real climbers.
Thanks to everyone involved. Jerry and I had a fantastic few days hosting and climbing with Magnus and Adam and it was great showing them around our old training haunts. The highpoint had to be seeing them on my Minus 10 classic the Megatron Turbo. Whoever would have thought! Nice one guys.
Thanks to you as well!

The vibe with Jerry heckling (encouragingly!) and Ben just being like an accommodating host is honestly amazing - I could have watched 2hrs of this - would love to see more
Me too!
same here!
Haha yeah! But Jerry is also the one who cheers the loudest!
I loved how he bantered Adam constantly in between climbs but then he was super hyped during his climbs
Ben saying he's useless crushes my heart. He was and still is a legend no matter what! Don't be too hard on yourself man. This is a truly amazing video and I loved every second of it. Thank you guys for making this collab happen ❤️
me too..but I hope that's just his expression and has no deep meaning in it
eh I'd guess thats just stereotypical British understatement, like the counter balance to Jerry being boisterous!
timestamp?
Was a bit hard to see. The dude is well into his 50s.
I don't think you understand what a legend is
I love how humble Magnus is, despite being one of the best climbers in the world. Seeing him flash a boulder problem that Adam couldn't flash makes you understand how good Magnus actually is. Awesome video!
Yeah, there's some advantages that Magnus has over Adam.
That problem kinda suited a smaller climber. You could see the first moves were awkward for Adam, but yeah take nothing away from Magnus he's still a freak.
not to be "that guy" but magnus is not one of the best climbers in the world. he himself would readily admit that, i'm fairly certain. don't get me wrong. he's stronger than i could ever dream of being, and he's definitely in the top 99th percentile.... but when you are talking about millions (over ~25 million according to some estimates?) of climbers worldwide, being in the top 99th percentile, or even 99.9th percentile, doesn't make you one of the best. i mean just think about how many olympic climbers alone there are. and then you factor in how some of the strongest climbers to have ever lived aren't even competing these days... jimmy webb, daniel woods, nalle, shawn, etc... edit: LMAO i seem to have really upset all the salty gymbros who think they know everything because they watched a few youtube videos and started bouldering 3 months ago and just climbed their first v3. it's ok you guys can keep telling me why i'm wrong. i know you are wrong. and you know what's hilarious? i bet even magnus knows you are all wrong. and it wouldn't be out of a false sense of humility, it's because i'm sure even magnus himself knows just how good people are these days. there are people NONE OF YOU HAVE EVEN HEARD OF who are stronger climbers than magnus. and if you disagree with me, perhaps you should just take a minute and educate yourself on the world of climbing. it's a lot bigger than magnus' youtube channel.
He's a monster on pinches but he doesn't really project hard climbs. I would love to see him on the grand illusion I feel like he would crush it.
old school boulders, they are more raw power and less technic. Adam was thinking to much
i love how adam just sprints to climb the boulder at 23:07 , you can see how much fun he is having
Totally!
Legend with legends!🤩
actually i see him do that most of the time in these vids so far. looks like a habit haha. and i bet hes excited for sure too..
This was the funniest part, I was in stitches. Had to rewind just to watch it again. Something about a grown man getting so excited to do something - like a child with a new toy. We all love climbing
@@nfivejaygee yea and he does it like 1 second after magnus goes away. just couldnt hold back. love it
I mean we all know that Magnus is strong, but the fact that he can still flash boulders that Adam fails to flash is just insane. Adam is the pretty much undisputed nr 1 of our generation and Magnus can still hang with him!
Your comment reads a bit like you consider Magnus so much older, that he is from another generation than Adam. They are just 4 years apart, if you didn’t know.
They have different twitch muscles
@@tomriddle2257 not really, theyre saying more like its impressive that magnus, a retired climber that doesn't do proper training anymore can still hang with the world number one who trains like crazy. It is incredibly impressive
@@lawsong6663 Yea I wasn’t sure. Definitely a possible interpretation.
@@tomriddle2257 I don't know why you'd think I was talking about age but I guess I can clarify if it was confusing. I meant that Magnus retired from competition climbing 6 years ago, and hasn't really been focusing on hard climbing since then. Sure he does a lot of general climbing content, but he doesn't really push himself by projecting really hard routes/boulders. Simultaneously he also does a lot of other wierd fitness stuff that should be to the detriment of his climbing ability. On the other hand, Adam has climbed more than 20 V15 or harder boulders and has topped more 9b+ routes then any other climber in history, three of them in the last few years and the last one just a few months ago. So he is obviously at the absolute peak of human climbing ability. Given all that, the fact that Magnus can still climb at a comparable level and even outperform Adam on some problems is astounding. Hope that clears it up.
I laughed so hard when Jerry said to Ben to downgrade Adam's route to a 6c. The chemistry between all of them was amazing.
@@JonaasK A moonboard benchmark 6c is more like 7a+/b
Seeing Jerry feed beta to Adam, and then Adam encouraging Ben surely is the most wholesome example of how friendly and encouraging all climbers are, regardless of age and experience.
Love the part at 14:40 when they all go down in unison because they wanted Adam to succeed. I say them but I did the same thing in front of my screen :D
Not all climbers are like this unfortunately. The more mainstream it got, the more shitheads became climbers....
Climbing is you vs the problem...
30 seconds into the video AND I COULDN’T BE MORE PSYCHED FOR THIS!!
I have a Mount Rushmore of climbing KZheadrs, and I always exclaim with celebratory profanities whenever I see even just the thumbnail for a new vid.
When are you visiting Sheff Emil? Come and try some Grit classics and when it rains (not if it rains) head to the School room and see if you can flash Stuey 5 bellies! (or Milk It,!)
This is an amazing segment! The old footage of Ben and Jerry is from the "The Real Thing", a revolutionary video that completely flipped the script of what a climbing film looked and sounded like. It was the first climbing film that showed us the personalities of the climbers and gave a glimpse into their lifestyles . That coupled with a techno/house club music soundtrack made it look and sound like nothing that had been available before. It was not just another "RAD" action film, it was relatable to a new generation of climbers and set the tone for many films that followed.
The more I learn about the history of climbing, the more similarities to skateboarding there are. Amazing.
@@AirborneLRRP True that! Skateboarding saved my life when I was young, climbing shaped the direction of my adult life. I feel very fortunate to have had so much of both in my life.
@@AirborneLRRP it looked a lot like the skateboard films of the era. The miniDV cameras and wide angle shots.
Do ben and jerry make ice cream now
I think Magnus has fooled us into thinking lately he’s a KZheadr who used to climb but this video reminded us he’s a climber who also does KZhead. So strong. I’m curious Magnus, how often do you train/climb still in between all the videos?
He's said in other videos he climbs every single day
As of September 2023 - it seems he's re-entering the world of proper competition.
video was awesome but I couldn't help but crack up at 2:43 when Adam is going in on his warmup while the legend is explaining his story 😂
HHAHAh i was going to comment the exact same thing
Omgg lmao this is so goofy
what actually happens there, is that Adam is warming up his fascia with dynamic movements. few new studies has shown that, it can be super benefitial for performance.
Makes sense timing wise as they were talking about the importance of training
@@botondgavaller817 Dude, we know. But could he have waited 2 minutes to do his warm up until they were done talking LOL.
Not 100% sure everyone will get his video, might not go viral, however, for someone like me, who started climbing in the early 90's, and still does now, this is GOLD. Had so much fun grinning and catching the psyche!
Same here! It was nice seeing some of the heroes of our generation still up and kicking, showing that we still got this!
I started climbing in 2009 but I watched all those 90s/00s movies like "Hart Grit" and I enjoyed this video a lot as well.
I just started in November, but I love those videos, too. The best climbers of the world all seem so humble and chill
You started in the 90s and find normal not mentioning Gullich? Really?
@@riccardofabris1260 didn’t mention anyone. Just said I enjoyed the KZhead video. Had a poster of Gullich if that makes you rage a little less?
This is a fucking insane video!! Huge props to Adam for joining in on this, it's a lot of preassure being nr 1! And of course MAD respect for the absolute legends. Climbing is what it is today because we stand on the shoulders of giants and Ben Moon and Jerry Moffat are undoubtedly some of those giants who have lifted the sport to a whole new level!
John Bacchar and Alex Honnold* brought it to a new level
@@tdb4763 in a climb where you can't risk falling there's really no sport at all. it's mad impressive in its own right, but in terms of technique or power or difficulty of climb free solo climbers are absolutely dwarfed. they don't care, though, because they climb for themselves. to lump them in with top sport climbers is disrespectful both to them and to the sport climbers
@@jaimeparker2161 Easy to say from the comfort of your own home. In reality, you don't even have the balls to free solo at your own local gym.
I could easily watch a full hour or more of this. The vibe in this room alone. Learning some of the history and seeing you guys all climb together was incredible to watch. I found your channel about a month ago and I've watched a bunch of your videos. This is one of your best. A series like this with legendary climbers past and present at legendary spots would be amazing. Also, you got me back bouldering for the first time in 10 years this week and brought my little bro with me and he loved it. Appreciate it man, definitely one of my favorite channels on KZhead now.
I'd like to now who came up with this idea. What a fantastic video! Brilliant Magnus. This is going to be one that I watched multiple times. Those guys are priceless. You can still see the intensity and competitive spirit in their eyes. So happy you brought Adam with you on this one because they immediately recognized he was worthy of the "title". I haven't seen you so focused Magnus. I just loved this video. Maybe the best one ever.
This is clearly one of your best videos ever. I always loved the way you interact with others but really think that you came to a new high over the last videos. You always strive to let the others look good and are always very respectful to them even in the undercover climbing ones you always let the instructors look good. Love it all. And you are still a hell of a climber.
A bit emotional watching this one. Last video I watched was your other Sheffield video and at the time I mentioned we were close by as my mum was in hospital in Yorkshire. Unfortunately she passed away on the 10th of February. She was really proud of my daughter who has just turned 7 and started climbing. She has been climbing a few months now and we usually watch your videos and Adam's videos together. We went climbing tonight in the northeast of the UK and she spent a lot of time talking about her Nanna. It's been a really emotional month but climbing helps her focus and talking helps her process the emotions. Watching videos together during mums illness was a big help for us both and gave us a lot of support. If you come back to the UK it would be brilliant if she could meet you both. I sent a message on Insta but appreciate you will get thousands. Thanks for another amazing video and this was probably one of my favourites to date. It felt very authentic and real. All fantastic guys and all inspirational. Thanks again
Sorry to hear that but I’m glad you and yours are finding comfort in these videos and climbing in general. Sending love from Texas 🫂
Best climbing video I've seen in ages! This is the platinum standard for "all star cast". The casual tone and the filming is brilliant. I got so absorbed about halfway in, I fell into the mindset of being at the crag with mates. Then Jerry: "you want some tips Adam? Just pull really hard..." 😂 classic.
Me telling the mates to "just go up" :D
Moffat is SO invested in the success of others, both in this video but also in the vintage campusing clips. Fascinating.
When Magnus was able to flash "Stuey Five Bellies 8A+ (V12)" 15:22 , I just screamed "F*ck yeah!". Really impressive, man! Adam is such a great climber, but Magnus keep reminding me of how good he can keep up with the best. I guess I will need to try harder next time I go to the climbing gym :) Thanks for the video!
When his foot slipped I was like "KOM IGJEN MAGNUS, DETTE KLARER DU!!!"
The caption here was incorrect. The problem is "Stuey Five Bellies" named after the climber Stuart Cameron.
@@BranwellHaworth Thank you for mentioning it, that is very interesting :) I will edit my comment to correct it as well.
Fuck yeah!*
Magnus mental game is still up there with the best of them
19:29 it's so funny to realize, after climbing on the Moon Board for so many years, that despite sounding glib, Jerry's tip of "pull really hard, give it everything" is actually a useful tip for this type of climbing.
I love how climbers are always so supportive of each other, no matter how competetive they are
This is honestly one of the coolest climbing videos I've ever seen, great job magnus and whoever set this up
Thank you so much Magnus for making the best climbing content on this platform. I recently started climbing and have to say that I may just found my life passion. What an incredible sport and community. Thank you for opening my eyes to it and showing me whats possible and what to aim for.
If there was an award for most influential climber, it'd be Magnus. Many people have started climbing here in Norway just because of Magnus, I can only imagine how it is globally.
@@OriginalPuro right? he said social may be blocking climbers who arent great with it, but i think he has easily countered it with the crazy amount of people he got to start climbing
@@OriginalPuro That's awesome to hear. I'll be visiting Norway from the US in a few weeks and though I'll be spending most of my time staying with my friend in Tromso I'll be checking out his gym in Oslo and I can't wait to see it.
@that guy damn that's pretty crazy. It's cool he has such reach.
Ben and Jerry should seriously consider opening an ice cream shop together
Ben Moon, at 56 years old, is an inspiration for us 40 something climbers who are careening quickly towards our 50s. Something magical about this video and how it kind of blurs time and magnifies what a magical sport climbing is.
Dude he is 56! I thought he was 50 at most. Incredible that he's still climbing at that high of a level. What a discipline that man has.
@@PelleKuipersthe mmk ..,.o. L
Seeing the current young thrusters alongside the heroes from my climbing youth is so much fun. Amazing to see the progress of the sport, but seeing a 56 year old Ben Moon still climbing at such a high level is inspirational.
When he said endurance was still going up even though his strength is now declining, that gives me hope!
MAGNUSSSSS!! seeing you flash Study Five Bellies was honestly so engaging to watch. I'm so impressed, you don't compete anymore, and a lot of your time i'm sure is based around your other work and the channel, and it was honestly so impressive to see you nail that. I truly didn't realise how much of a powerful climber you still were. Amazing video idea you've bought to life here by connecting these people, which by the tone of the room I feel probably wasn't the easiest thing to arrange. Props to you and thanks for what I think is probably the best climbing content out there in terms of contribution to the community and history. I'm sure a lot of people enjoy your prank videos and what not for the casual or non-climbers, but this is where it's at, and the reason I am subscribed and always check out what you're doing. Thanks man!
Adams celebrations are the best.. such genuine excitement he just can’t hold in
Ive been climbing since the 80's and still boulder twice a week. About to turn 60 and still love it. Seeing my generation with Adam and Magnus was a dream. Enjoy your climbing everyone, and enjoy your lives. Always pull really hard.
this is something for the real climbing nerds, love to see it! You can truly see them all coming together and bonding over one thing, all very passionate about the sport.
Magnus after flashing v12: should we try something harder? 😅🤯
It’s unreal how good Magnus is at editing. Such a good vibe the whole video.
This video really captured one of my favourite things about climbing, the super supportive competition. Everyone is cheering for the climber, and also really trying to push themselves as hard as possible.
what an incredible video ! thank you for providing us casual boulderers these fantastic insights into a world class climbers' life
“We’re going to crush them”: proceeds to celebrate every victory “they” get and sympathize vocally with their failures. Very much an “aging competitor” vibe. ❤❤
I love that this video gives us a window into climbing history. Such a meaningful and quality video. You’re an artist, Magnus!
Amazing video, absolutely incredible. The idea, the execution, the setting - top notch. Almost brought tears to my eyes on several occasions. This is simply incredible. Magnus deserves to be where he is in the climbing world - full of ideas and incredibly strong still. And Adam was great - humble and competitive as ever. Would love to see more climbing legends. What a video man!!!
My favorite video so far :) And there would be no Adam, of course, without the pioneering oldtimers
This is one of my favorite videos. Old school and new school coming together for some hard, fun climbing. Doesn't get much better. Jerry Moffatt's commentary and ribbing was just icing on the cake.
Watching Adam swing then just pull back on his entire body and do a careful foot plant at those angles is amazing
This was an absolute treat. All these legends in one video. Thank you so much Magnus! Also, I was smiling so hard when Magnus flashed the V12! Still an absolute beast!
I love this kind of content - mad respect for the history of climbing, and the pioneering legends that paved the way.
What a video. Your channel just gets better Magnus. And to me, your climbing is too, seeing you flash some of those old school problems is just phenomenal. So cool to see the respect you both show to Ben and Jerry, two legit legends.
I loved this video and the lingering atmosphere of old school climbing that Ben and Jerry keep very much alive with their ball busting, encouraging, attitudes. You can really get a sense of, and appreciate, the environment that they cultivated from a different generation of climbing community.
Just imagine Güllich beeing still around and with this group. When they say they were the best there is a bit of an asterisk next to that
I LOVE this type of content. It’s just interesting to me when high level climbers like these guys just talk about the things they know. They have so much insight on things I haven’t even thought about.
That's beside more money the main reason climbers nowadays become stronger than ever before. I know some guys that took climbing courses but climbed only V on the UIAA scale. When I started climbing I became decent fast because I went climbing with people who are way better at climbing than I am. With pros it's the same you can't improve if there are no people around your level or stronger around you. That's the reason there are training centers for the best in most sports and countries.
I'm only a casual in climbing but this was super fun to watch. You guys must have had a blast filming this with Adam! Magnus flashing Five Bellies was super impressive.
I am not a climber, but I love watching watching these videos about the history, OGs, and greats of your sport. Very interesting and inspiring!
You should start mate. It's life changing.
As a Sheffieldier who grew up in the 90's and learned to climb in the foundry, it's so great to see the historic side of the sport. 🙏
Adam Ondra is the best but many other climbers in other regards are very impressive in their specific type of climbing Thanks Magnus! Your vids alway make my day!
Without Sharma, maybe no Ondra. Difficult to compare climbers, as boulderers are different than other etc
Ondra is probably still the best overall, but if you combined Bouin with Robetou, that hybrid would be the best today.
Ondra is a new generation climber. He's born with gyms, training tools, training programs and some milestones to achieve or to beat. In former times when Moon, Moffatt or Güllich climbed, there was nothing. They had to create everything. Moon and Moffatt built the Fondry in Sheffield, Güllich the campus board and they tried new routines without any idea of what they will lead us. Even the spirit was different: back in the 80s it wasn't well accepted to "work" a route: to work a move from the point you fell. When you fell, you had to start again from the ground. It's not to depreciate Adam Ondra who is a monster and the best climber of the world. But you can't compare climbers from different times. Climbers like Moffat, Moon, Güllich, Edlinger are just pioneers.
@@sebastientardivel8179 yup. ondra can only see so far because he stands on the shoulders of giants. Both generations are absolutely amazing in their own right.
I’ve been watching the channel for a couple of years and this is possibly the best episode I’ve watched. Fantastic seeing the old footage and perspectives from living legends and then Adam Ondra taking on the routes. Amazing stuff! I also didn’t know the origin of the Moon board.
This content is freaking incredible! Inspirational, nostalgic, so well edited. I think it's time for Magnus to start his own production company!
Love this! And love the high quality content recently! I don't mind that the uploads are less frequent, it's so much fun!
The sense of mutual respect and awe among high-level athletes and between generations is something anyone can enjoy, whether or not they climb. Great stuff.
So pleased you got to make this video. I got to climb with Jerry and Ben a long long time ago now and it is something that still sticks with me to this day. They are both a true bunch of gents and absolute inspirations to the sport we all love. Thanks for an awesome video that bought back so many memories for me :-) THANK YOU
3:45 "You've got really good footholds here..." - Steps on a micro-edge that only macro can capture
WOW I did not expect this video to be as intense as it was!!! I was yelling out loud "COME ON" when magnus was trying to flash the problem Adam didn't flash (housemates probably heard me). Seeing this multigenerational climbers interacting was also really cool. Well done great video!
Just started and I'm already delighted with the video. Thanks for the content Maguns. I just completed two months climbing and I'm already addicted to bouldering and your videos. Greetings from Mexico!
I've been watching everything and this has been my favorite video yet! Someone in it said the word 'Historic' and that is a great word for this video - seeing the comparison and hearing Jerry Moffatt say, "The thought that somebody would come and flash this back then would be ridiculous....Somebody trying to do it first, once, and being annoyed that they fell off it - it's just insane." really puts Your and Adam's skills in new perspective for us viewers. No one else could have put something like this together. Grade A content - Congrats on those flashes, you joined some exclusive clubs there.
wow just insane! This is such a sick combo and to see you all in the same room on the same problems is a true treat!! loved every second!!
This is one of the best videos you've ever done Magnus! Every part of this was so enjoyable to watch. The big names, the hard climbing, and the good vibes made it flawless.
WOW! You actually flashed something adam didn't! That was a great way for me to understand just HOW GREAT you are at climbing. Never had that perspective.
That was absolutely fantastic to watch! Everyone seemed so engaged! Also watching Ben moon still kick butt even as he getting older was fantastic! Congrats on the iconic flash Magnus! This video does make me want to see you trying a 9b+ though or trying to get another v14 outdoors or a v15
Wow Magnus. This is the best video so far this year. I think seeing the school house and its small enclosure for the climbing boards made it very approachable. I could really see myself going through the motions like you and everyone were. This is one of very few videos where I was really "biting my nails!" The other videos in the big gyms can be a bit overwhelming due to their size and amount of people and I didn't get the same level of anticipation from those videos that this video brought! I hope you make more videos visiting older climbers and the places they trained in. It was good seeing some history, but unlike a museum where you can't touch anything, you can still climb and actively participate, reliving the past. Thanks.
Great video! Adam Ondra warming up in the background does give it a whole other layer though 😆
I love how he got the og climbers from back then. I get such a good feeling seeing them talk about how it was back then. great video,
My favorite part of this ENTIRE well produced adventure is 1:48 where Adam CANT wait to feel the wall. Love it
This was amazing. I don't really follow climbing, but watching something from 20+ years ago and seeing their minds blown by you two shows how crazy good you two are at it. That makes it even more enjoyable to watch.
Honestly, this is probably my favourite video you guys ever put out! So much stoke. so much history. All the legends in one place… amazing!
This one really is for the climbing nerds, thank you so much for the video, excellent work! Nice casual flash of the historic board problem too haha
The amount of passion and love these guys have in their heart for this sport makes me so heartwarmed
I love the good natured ribbing, along with the mutual respect! Great video!
Really great video, big thanks to everyone who came together to make it possible!
This was such a good video, I was grinning like a nutter throughout! It was so nice to see such a strong and prestigious group of climbers in the same room having fun and showing everyone what climbing is all about!
I like how the conversation just carried on while Adam summoned ancient gods with his warm up dance moves
This is my favourite video of yours Magnus and you’ve done a lot of amazing videos! The nostalgia captured of friends climbing together was caught so well and really makes me miss my climbing sessions that I had before covid destroyed peoples will to leave the house regularly. I need to get back on it 🙂
Excellent video! It’s amazing to see how Magnus’ content-creation continues to evolve with the success of his work. Really looking forward to the next video.
Watching my two favorite climbers colab is allways so fun. The fact that both of you are simultaneously humble and competitive is great.
Fabulous video! Great climbers gathered together for good fun. As a 60 year old the thrill of climbing never goes away! Thank you for this post.
This is maybe the best video Magnus has ever made. History, great vibes, great climbing, amazing cast of guest stars. I would love to see more. Maybe find other members from past generations to show you their old projects and climbs. Would love to see colab with Alex or Shawn R as well!
The depth of this video and its authenticity is unmatched by anything else in the channel. Loved the video, Magnus! What a treat!!
What a nice video! Looking so much forward to more videos from this meet-up! 💪👌 You can literally feel the history and the childhood-dream-come-true respect from the two "young" guys 😉
Loved this! The filmography, combination of old footage, the banter. Amazing!
I really smile watching these videos. It's the respect and camaraderie, it's so heart warming and reminds me it can be great to be human. Adam's smile and the enthusiasm in his voice is so endearing.
The power that Adam develops with those long arms is amazing
This was a climbing session an history class!! amazing idea to get them together!!! i fell this more like a documentary than a simple youtube video!! was not expecting this amazing doc today!!! don't stop magnus!! we want more!!!!
This is incredible. As a relative novice to climbing, having only gone a year or so of consistent training, I love learning more and more about this sport through your channel. Those videos feel like the most genuine look inside some of the climbing history and the spirit that drives some of the best athletes in the world. Truly epic. Keep up this amazing work! I am now absolutely addicted to your content (also, great production quality)!
This has become my favourite climbing show . Your such a natural presenter with a great flow and no ego , interesting content always, keep it up. Thanks
Ben moon still so strong, you can see the bit of pain he has not being where he used to be. Massive respect, the Ben moon v5 benchmarks are hard as hell.
Magnus, this is in your best category of videos. You've done quite a few and this is definitely one of them. I would say this is the first one where I was smiling through the whole video. Such a great vibe and energy. So great. Great job. Can't say enough how fun and great this video is.
This was such a great video, really chill but entertaining at the same time. Magnus and his team are killing it with their content, class. Thank you!
Really cool video and really well done. Awesome to have a video like this that's really a historical climbing type of thing and it's put together very well. For those curious the vide produced for Adam's channel is worth a watch as well, lots more outdoor footage to see there.
This was such a special video. I can just imagine that in 20 years time there will be two new top climbers (maybe one of them is theo blass?) filming a similar video with some of the legends of the past, and it could be you and Adam in Jerry & Ben's shoes. It's beautiful, and so special.
This was a really nice video - I love the relaxing but yet playful teasing atmosphere! It makes you feel like you're there and can connect with the people. The video really made my day :)
I'm not a climber but I've really enjoyed Magnus' videos exploring an amazing range of topics. I watched this just after the video with Adam on grip strength. This is so good - the collective passion, dedication, history, mutual respect, athleticism - it's infectious. Thank you for continuing to make these kinds of videos.
Amazing video, really good insight into the world of climbing and it’s history for those who are new to it all. Keep up the incredible work Magnus. Much love from the UK
Wow. Speechless. So much experience, so much strength in one room. The fact that this was possible to film is just astounding.
