I was in a gym once in third of a flash attempt and suddenly they turned on the heaters. The termo light super sweat making heaters. I swore a great deal and took my shirt off while climbing. And then fell about one express short of a top.
Most people can catch you now we always use to miss the last 3 clips and jump indoors i did sometimes end up lower than my belayer but it was about as big fall?.
Amazing video. I`m in the moment, when i`m still scared to death by falling and trying to work it out. These 7 minutes certainly gave me some inspiration for further work. Thanks!
Nice send! Much better belaying than Dave's first accent. The hard catch when he fell from the top hold was nasty. Hurt his ankle because the belayer was tied down. Bad plan. This soft catch with the belayer flying up was much nicer took loads of the swing out of it.
@@Xxsnip3r126xX Then it was one time to often... But there must be a rule or a visual rope wear indicator to determine how often. It would be interesting to know how they deal with this.
@@xonic4631 Ropes have fall ratings tested with high forces and repeated falls until failure. With all that rope out and a soft catch you can fall a lot without being too worried. Soft spots you can feel then it's best to be done with it.
That's the hardest graded single pitch route in the UK. It's desperate. No one is climbing that without taking a stupid number of whippers, but they're not a crazy high fall factor. The rope will be fine.
He doesn't solo anywhere near his limit, which is intelligent. THere have been climbers who have soloed things MUCH harder(pitch for pitch) than Alex Honnold, but no one has done the crazy multi pitch soloing that he has.
Gave a thumbs down for this video. It’s missing the history of the route, how bold and how hard it is. All it shows is a series of moves and some big falls. It seems the point of the video is to show Wow factor over any insight into pushing ones own limits or how to challenge the fear of falling to achieve your goal.
I have never done rock climbing in my life. I watch these videos because I'm a big fan guys belaying and shouting encouragement.
Go ahead and try sometimes. You never know if this might be something for you
Have you tried it yet?
That finishing hold..!
I know!
All those holds at the crux are nasty! And the feet suck! But yeah -- get all that crazy bouldering done and slap a big ole sloper! Whoa!
that last hold was a close call ;)
Really appreciate all the work that goes into all Hot Aches Productions' films..and Sonnie Trotter, gotta love him too!
One of the best falls on the web...straight down...plummet...
beautiful!
1:39 the advanced technique of removing your shirt with one hand in a crack

Thanks for putting this up! So awesome seeing Sonnie climbing on such a beautiful route.
Class vid... gotta love Sonnie Trotter! always strikes me as a really lovely bloke... not to mention his climbing
props to the hat for not flying off from the wind
Real hero is the belayer.

Why doesn't he anchor himself?
@@marcchrys because he can control the speed of Mass better in both directions
Looks like there are some really great moves on that climb
Awesome job Sonnie
Great content recently guys, loving it!
Man! The way his feet cut loose at the lip! That was nuts!
Amazing video. I`m in the moment, when i`m still scared to death by falling and trying to work it out. These 7 minutes certainly gave me some inspiration for further work. Thanks!
wow those are some huge whips at the crux. wonder what kind of bomber piece that is.
Epic vid guys!!! Keep up the great work :-)
Great to see the man who slayed the cobra still shreddin. Sonnie has OG status in my book
this video is from 2008
😂😂 i thought he looked fucking young 😂😂
The will of the spooge!
Lovin' the Joe Rockhead's shirt!
What an impressive line! Nice work guys
Got all of that sloper at the end!
gem of a vid
Great Video, keep em coming.

Must get through a Good Few Ropes!
"we're here to have a good time, not achieve anything world class" climbings 14 b/c R.... 😂
That protection gap seems hugeeeee
Good thing you got that sponsor shout out with the close up of the sleeve.😉
What's the breakbeat song at 4:38?
It's 'Control Your Mind' by DJ B-Burg - soundcloud.com/b-burg
What's the song that starts at around 1.39 into the video love it ??
These guys are some ice cold chillers.
Aren’t the two bolts at the top too close to the edge?
These men are strong, brave and crazy
19C in Scotland and he's complaining?
Song of min 5?
Classic Sonnie s outfit!
sick video
Holy hell why are they falling so far? Are there no bolt holds at the top?
Not sure if you are being serious, but if you, there are no bolts because this is a trad route, natural protection only, no bolts.
Jordan Sullivan E11 dude.
ah dumbarton rock!
and yes rhapsody!!!
nice!!!!!
was that the second ascent?
you're
Opps - Fixed.
I have a question: How often can you fall like this with the same rope?
Untill it breaks

@@MadLlamaFilms Thank you very much that's what i wanted to know =)
spoogey
How many whips like that before you have to replace the rope? I thought falling on trad was a big no no. Awesome video Sonnie is a beast

Alex Honald is not trying...
He could only try once, though.
Badass sport should play badass music, Metal!
Alex hannold wasn’t trying hard enough...
He doesn't solo anywhere near his limit, which is intelligent. THere have been climbers who have soloed things MUCH harder(pitch for pitch) than Alex Honnold, but no one has done the crazy multi pitch soloing that he has.
This is pretty awesome but when he said "19 degrees" and "heat" in the same sentence, I couldn't help but smirk a little...
he meant celsius I assume
and they`re in Scotland, so it`s almost summer :D
19C is 66F....... 🤦♂️
@@Bredddt Yes... I know this. I have only ever used Celsius my whole life. What I'm saying is that calling 19C "heat" makes you a bit of a pussy.
Its about humidity that comes with it of course 19 is not hot he knows that you know that. Maybe try to find some positivity in life. :)
I hate when they always spazz and scream
that means you aren't trying hard enough
I hate when people show their emotions. No one wants to see that crap. You climb for my entertainment, not yours.
Worst music on a climbing vid ever.

Okay, Spielberg 👍🏼
