- Introducing 'Proof of Concept', a new film about Outdoor Research Ambassador and pro climber, Sean Bailey. Up against the toughest route he'd ever attempted, Sean pushed himself to new limits and completes the third ascent of Bibliographie, 5.15c. This film dives into Sean's career as a pro climber, and how he uses both success and failure to fuel his climbing and push himself to new limits.
Film by Ben Neilson

this is one of the greatest climbing films I've ever watched
^^^
good soundtrack good buildup. Was nice to see three aspects of climbing indoor, lead and bouldering outdoors. Seems like a nice enough lad. Great video great send at the end. World class climb.
The ending summed it up for me. About finding the mentality of when you were succeeding.
Nuh uhh
Agreed!!
Fantastic! On another level... best footage of bibliography so far. Shows how next level these routes are if it took him a couple sessions for v16 and then 25 days for bibliography... even trying Sharma Rastaman vibrations project at the end.
Even the footage of Stefano are nice, but yeah great film right here👍👍
Sean Bailey is so underrated by many, but he's one of my favourites climbers and a truly inspiration. I'm very glad that this short documentary came, because Sean really deserves it. Thank you guys and thank you very much Sean that you took us on this journey with you.
Absolute masterpiece. At no point did this feel slow or off beat which I don't think I can say about literally any other climbing film. Also that ending clip foreshadowing on rastaman... HOLY FUK. My mind is totally blown, thank you Ben Neilson for creating this and I hope to create something half as inspiring as this one day!!
Dude hit the j before hopping on bibliography LMAO
What a legend
was about to comment on this lmao
Loved that.
What minute does that happen? lol
@@sdc2040 22:42 lol
The fact that occured in the sponsor's video makes me want to buy their product even more.
I'm a huge Sean Bailey fan! He is rock climbing's Allen Iverson. He oozes style. Glad he is getting his respects. Great video!
Absolutely amazing story telling. Best climbing film this year!
Crazy he dug up his old climbing coach from his youth, Tyson, for just a few words. Amazing dedication
Another Ben Neilson gem. I remember meeting Ben in 2014/2015 when he was film making for the Western Washington guidebook. He told me about how Jimmy Chin was one of his inspirations and it's amazing that Ben has continued to refine his craft. Can't wait to see what the future has in store for him.
I'm just impressed by how the video puts everything together... Top 10 climbing videos without any doubt! Awesome!
Ben you absolute maestro. This is, without doubt, top 3 climbing films material. Incredible sense of pacing and substance. Im looking forward to your next work!
I used to compete against Sean as a teenager in the youth climbing competitions. He was on another level back then, but never realized he would get to these amazing routes. Keep crushing!!
It's such a weird combination of demoralising and inspiring to compete against a world class athlete as a kid
Straight up superstar 💪🤙🙏
He's got years to come as well....bow down peeps
My new favorite climbing video. What an incredible display of my all time favorite climber. Bout time he got the recognition he deserves. Take all accomplishments aside, and all voiceover on this entire video, and you'll still be amazed at his climbing. He truly has the most balanced flow and style on the wall of anyone I've ever seen.
damn. this is way more hype than the reel rock. Sean is the goat. Realest climbing vid ive seen in a minute. crazy
Instant classic. And Nathaniel's 80's Uncle Joey sweatshirt is epic.
One of the best climbing films I've seen! Long awaited and super sick!
Sean is my favorite guy in the game. It's so refreshing to see someone roll up to comps in Carhart's and long hair. It makes me stay in love with sport, knowing that my people can still rule the front lines. Can't wait to see what you do in the coming years, bud.
This is a work of art! Thanks to all the team that made this film. Sean really raised the standard!
Wow. 30 Minutes of straight fire. Sean is the man.
Great, Great, Great film. So so good.
one of the best climbing videos i've seen in a while
Wonderful film. It was exciting last year seeing everything he accomplished. So great to see it in a package.
And nice to see a surprise cameo from Miho Nonaka!
The scene at 9:10 ish right?
They are or were dating
His one of the climbers I look up to. So much passion, always keen on learning. Huuuge respect!
Whoa! holy shit Ben. Incredible job telling Sean's story. Really loved this film... what a tick list. Bravo Sean!
So good. Great shots, climbing and storytelling. Well done by Sean, Ben and the rest of the team.
What an astounding documentary! Congrats on the accomplishments!
Maybe one of the most chilling transitions was when they showed salt lake (bass bump'n) while listing the insane 10 year prereq's
Amazing! Been anticipating this video for months and it did not dissapoint!
Sean == GOAT
Ben == GOAT
Wow. Just wow. Ben Nielsen has my respect!!!
So sick, the video itself and Sean Bailey. Truly amazing.
better filmmaking than almost all the reel rocks this year
The goat!!! Such a great documentary they went absolute god mode making this!!!
Amazing thing to watch! Just got fired up!!!🔥
this is such a great look into the actual process of climbing at your limit
Really enjoyed that, thank you.
Thanks for so much uncut footy in a doc! What a treat :))
Hell yeah, Sean! What a year.
Finally climbing looks like fun again :-). Love the footage!
congrats on some great climbing Sean! Beautiful film.
Amazing. Such insight into process and exceptional contributions. Love Nate Coleman’s take on the modern comp circuit requirement, and what it takes to win a gold medal.
It feels as though there are so many climbers that unfairly missed out on Tokyo - a flawed system with 3 disciplines. We will no doubt see him in Paris ‘24 💪
Oof...
Great video¡
gave me goosebumps
amazing year & video Sean!
Fascinating. It's also amazing to have the opportunity to watch it all. Thank you!
The best climbing film. So much inspiration. So fucking cool Sean
Reel Rock should take some notes
Totally agree.
The Fortress was an amazing film in a similar way, unfortunately put into the Showcase rather than the feature. I honestly preferred it to The CUDL.
This is rad, well done!!!
I became a fan today! Such great content!
This is the best movie ever made.
22:45 that's the spirit
film of the year !!
this totally should’ve been on RR this year
Holy smokes, that was inspiring.
Steezus is my shepherd I shall not want
Steezus Christ has risen. Thy will be done.
Funny how Bibliography looks like a completely different route every time we see someone climb it.
That dude was so on fire this year that didn't go to olimpic because was the fucking olimpic torch🔥
Great film !!!
That was awesome!!!!!
Great ! Enjoy this Film !!
Absolutely inspiring
Great video! :)
so inspiring!!!
A+ film 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Epic!!!
Epic stuff
It ain't easy being Steezy.
If Nonaka Miho and Sean Bailey are dating, that would be a pretty insane climbing power coupled.
They are. 💯
That run out at the end. Damn! I know it’s a big wall but sheesh haha
Nice man!
How tall is he ?
Can you share the soundtrack?
31:30 at the end
super, outdoor researh 👏👏
legend @22:44
Miho is everywhere haha
This is crazy
goated with the sauce
I met this dude. He's a Ledge.
signifacntly better than this years Reel Rock
Dude u are the best
Proof Of Work
🙏🙏🙏
this goes kinda hard
Steezy just fuckin killing it!
Put "initially proposed 9c/5.15d by Alex Megos but graded 9b+ by Stephano Ghisolfi" in the description, and put "(Bibliography 9b+/5.15c)" in the title and you'll get another 100k views in a couple months. The higher grades are better for SEO and Stefano is making noise with Silence right now so that will help. On my other TH-cam channel i did a total troll video with V17 in the title and i got 76k views with double digit subscribers.
I'll start by saying that this film is an incredible record of Sean's immense talent and work ethic. But I have to disagree in the narration's point that we should potentially be idolizing self-hatred (6:40). That individual decision marred for me what could have been one of the most inspiring films in climbing, and it really was a shame to hear.
Surely some people will see it differently, but I think it's worth considering by the filmmakers.
no
@@danielanderson5806 I agree
i mean, he is light, but he climbs like he literally weighs nothing
What an extraordinary fucki… climbing film
Mega rigs.
why, WHY is there a cut on 30:12 this was one of the worst decisions from the editor :(
mind is you real enemy
22:44
He's too steeeeezzzyyyy
:A:M:A:Z:I:N:G:
Mega movie
Wtf happened to d woods did he get botox
goated
22:45
Weed may or may not be illegal in France
he deserves it defenetly,but is it what he wants?Another intent to put a great climber into a box?But great pictuars anyway!
