Just watched Michaela Kiersch's ascent of this climb and had to come back and watch this gem too. From the start Chris dyno's and cuts feet on the first few moves....Michaela doesn't dyno or cut feet unless necessary. Lots of love for Chris, but I need to climb more like Michaela. Thanks Chris for this amazing FA!
I was just in squamish and hiked up to look at this line, one of the most inspiring pieces of rock I've seen, and makes the video all the more inspiring.
I hate how everyone tries to compare Honnold and Sharma. They are two truly amazing climbers. They have totally different styles of climbing and are both the best or at least one of the best at what they do.
Sharma/Ondra - best sport climbers Honnold - best free solo climber Trotter - best trad climber None of them could do what the others do, they are in different categories
This took me back to when I could still boulder. Chronic illness keeps me from staying on a wall very long now. I was never even close to this level at all but I used to watch these films and just vibe and be inspired to even try.
Magnificent. I appreciated the inclusion of the first part of the video. It's easy to forget how many failures precede success, and how much effort and determination it takes to push through.
@Lee Benedetti Dude, you just ruined one of my favorite climbing images, I keep watching this video like 1 or 2 times in a year since it was released (we're in 2023 now) and every time at that time I was like, "What the holy fuck??? How can a human do this?".
In Moccasyms too! Really goes to show that it's not the shoes that make the climber! Btw, not bagging on Moccasyms at all. They are my first pair for shoes and I still wear them all the time because of how comfortable (and odorless) they are.
John Guy Very true. Having climbed in them for well over a year, I learned they are pretty bad for heel hooking because as slip-ons they have a tendency of making your feet slip out of them more easily - another thing that really impressed me.
Troy Cushman Falling off a rock face a 1000 times, until you have covered it with 30lbs of chalk, so you can eventually hang on, is not good climbing. Screaming like a banshee every time you exert yourself is not good climbing. The “porno music” is a perfect fit for this nonsense.
Chris is a sick bastard. My palms are all sweaty after watching that. So inspiring, especially knowing that he doesn't just fly up things but works routes methodically.
There are definitely spots in the video where you can see possibility for bomber placements, but they are sooo far from the beginning of the climb. I totally disagree that you oculdn't protect it though, it would ust take you running it out through ridiculously hard moves. Not realistic, but for sure there are spots that go super deep where you could fit many small cams. Too bad there aren't any other spots for placements earlier in the line.
I watched this video senior year in high school over and over in first period. As soon as the bell rang I had 15 minutes to go down to the calculus teachers room where he had pull up bars and metallics rock rings and I would practice my two and one finger hangs. God I miss those days
Not a climber or an avid follower of this sport, but I can really appreciate and admire people who do it. This guy, Chris Sharma, I hear is the best...right???
I love how calm and chilled this guy is when he talks about his sport (which happens to be one of the most intensely hardcore and gripping sports i have ever had the privilage of being involved in) Good on you man.
It's all about one simple question: What makes my heart boost? What makes you freakin alive, brings joy and peace into your mind, into your soul? Just do it man!!! Don't sit on youtube! Follow your wild heart and scream in the middle of the street!!!
un video estupendo, me encanta ese enfoque de hoy no puedo pero mañana lo conseguire, aparte de la dificultad obvia de esta via, pone el punto mental que hay toda escalada. me encanta!
This is pretty much the only 240p video I'll watch on youtube..
Watching over & over!

I miss the old music! So glad to be able to watch this clip still. Thank you!
Same here
Who is watching this in 2019 and still stoked
2020
2020 greetings from a german lattice climber
2020 !!!
2021, super stoked
Watching it in 2022, still amazing!
I wise guy in these comments once said that it actually wasn't Chris who was screaming but the mountains because he pinched so hard!
man i could just eat, blaze, climb, chill and watch these videos all day
Sounds basically like Chris
My wife thought I was watching porn super loud in the bedroom with the music and Sharma yelling.😐
This vid is still hardcore though..
funny......
She was right though
I wonder what your wife would walk in on you watching Adam Ondra!! xD
the fact that he is doing this in moccs is super impressive! Also, the hardest send ever in moccs
I was just in squamish and hiked up to look at this line, one of the most inspiring pieces of rock I've seen, and makes the video all the more inspiring.
How far did you get on it?
I got to the base of it, and also scrambled up to the slab where you can get a great view of it.
probably about just that few feet and then he slipped and died and that is why no response
this is my favorite line of all time. dreamcatcher is just a breathtaking climb for sure!
Just met the guy today. He's a legend.
I hate how everyone tries to compare Honnold and Sharma. They are two truly amazing climbers. They have totally different styles of climbing and are both the best or at least one of the best at what they do.
because Honnold doesn't ropes.
Sharma/Ondra - best sport climbers
Honnold - best free solo climber
Trotter - best trad climber
None of them could do what the others do, they are in different categories
mjaxdes lol ... 90% of Honnold climbs are roped.. he said himself in an interview.. but that doesnt make a difference.. he is one of the best!
***** indeed it is true
***** I agree Ueli is amazing but what bouldering does he do? that's the only discipline I haven't heard of him doing
This took me back to when I could still boulder. Chronic illness keeps me from staying on a wall very long now. I was never even close to this level at all but I used to watch these films and just vibe and be inspired to even try.
What had happened?
Magnificent. I appreciated the inclusion of the first part of the video. It's easy to forget how many failures precede success, and how much effort and determination it takes to push through.
the legend never dies
No matter what other climbing films are out there I am always drawn back to this one.
Thumbs up if you started climbing because of this. This is history.
So insane. That was amazing to watch.
One of the best Chis Sharma videos. I love his style of climbing!
Absolutely amazing. The whole video had me biting my nails. fantastic achievement, Chris. And beautifully shot, BigUp. 5 stars
0:52 one of the only person, if not the only, who can completely stop an all-points-off move on a sloper.
0:52 ....
Holy shit I just noticed that, insane!!!
I thought the same, but it looks like it could have been the rope that caught and stopped him
@@leebenedetti8633 Yeah I finally worked it out that this is what happens. Still nutty.
@Lee Benedetti Dude, you just ruined one of my favorite climbing images, I keep watching this video like 1 or 2 times in a year since it was released (we're in 2023 now) and every time at that time I was like, "What the holy fuck??? How can a human do this?".
Because mocs...
I was there last week and can't believe that Chris climbed that beast.
Awesome.
Insane route. Every Sharma video inspires me
Sharma=Beast !!!!!!
I miss the original song
Where did Giddy up - go????? Stromba (tales from the sitting room)
absolutely incredible. i am going climbing for my 4th time this afternoon and i am inspired by watching this.
This guy is a beast amongst men.... this guy pulls some dynamic moves that most of us only dream about. killer vid.
In Moccasyms too! Really goes to show that it's not the shoes that make the climber! Btw, not bagging on Moccasyms at all. They are my first pair for shoes and I still wear them all the time because of how comfortable (and odorless) they are.
He did hardly use his feet though.. lol
John Guy Very true. Having climbed in them for well over a year, I learned they are pretty bad for heel hooking because as slip-ons they have a tendency of making your feet slip out of them more easily - another thing that really impressed me.
Looks like a perfect route for MadRock's. He barely used his feet after all...
Disgustingly good climbing, that last move looks brutal. I could live without the early 90's porno music in the background though.
Troy Cushman HAHAHAHAHA
+Troy Cushman It think it fits. I mean this video is basically porn.
oh c'mon, man - that music is perfect for that clip - the sequence and timing of the tempo is spot-on.

@@Chance-ry1hq I'll watch you attempt 5.14 and I'll tell you what is "not good climbing"
Man, that was fantastic! I could watch you climb all day long...was really cool!
thanks!!!
I love this vid. Every time I want to get amped up to climb or work out I just watch this vid.
Back when porn and climbing used the same music😁🤘
0:51 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Pretty move
this is absolutely amazing !
you guys are amazing !
Chris is a sick bastard. My palms are all sweaty after watching that. So inspiring, especially knowing that he doesn't just fly up things but works routes methodically.
You can't protect that climb. It would only take micro nuts and they would blow right out after a fall. Only a fool would trad climb this route.
There are definitely spots in the video where you can see possibility for bomber placements, but they are sooo far from the beginning of the climb.

The editing in this is so good.
I admire these guys....... Skill, determination and courage. And doing it all in the great outdoors! Good for you Chris; go well.
Thanks for posting the video. It makes my hands sweat.
Woooow this video is amazing ! I haven't words right now ! Chris is really good climber, thumbs up for him ! Go, go, Chris ! :)))
I watched this video senior year in high school over and over in first period.
As soon as the bell rang I had 15 minutes to go down to the calculus teachers room where he had pull up bars and metallics rock rings and I would practice my two and one finger hangs. God I miss those days
Beautiful climb. When Chris has to work that hard at it, you know it's crazy hard!
I've watched this a couple times now and I am pretty sure Sharma is the Man
I'm so happy for Chris. That route looks fun
great, great, great climber.
I have a huge admiration for his tenacity.
He tries ever the step beyond, and again, and again..
Still one of my favorites of all time on youtube.
A very good example, I showed to my son (11 years old) to tell him: never give up, someday your day will come ;-) THX!
I'm in 2021 and this is still one of my favorite YT videos
Absolutely incredible!
The open pinch at 5.30!!! he is so strong...great vid!!
Wow, that's pretty deep. I was literally taken aback for a second or two.
I love that he projects stuff in Moccs. Best shoes ever.
OMG ! It's just incredible ! He's strong ! I hope one day I could do that ...
That looks so hard, the dyno at the start is frickin awesome
OMG - my heart rate went to 120 just watching this! What a talent....
The craziest thing about this whole video is that he's doing it in moccs
one of the most beautiful and impressive climbs ever. hands down
dude, one word...awsome
wow. complete amazement.
holy crap awesome vid!! good work
When the power of struggle, determination, and youth, are focused properly, magnificent things can be achieved. Amazing.
Not a climber or an avid follower of this sport, but I can really appreciate and admire people who do it. This guy, Chris Sharma, I hear is the best...right???
Sharma is so amazing! he has some serious skill!
holy cow this video is crazy =O and that he has the energy to do it several times xD
ASTONISHING!
Favourite Chris Sharma climb!
chris...always the best..
Awesome job dude.
I love how calm and chilled this guy is when he talks about his sport (which happens to be one of the most intensely hardcore and gripping sports i have ever had the privilage of being involved in) Good on you man.
Great, great!!! Congratulations man!!!! ;)
amazing, just amazing
amazing, and very inspirational, just shows practice makes perfect :)
Best video on TH-cam
It's all about one simple question: What makes my heart boost?
What makes you freakin alive, brings joy and peace into your mind, into your soul? Just do it man!!! Don't sit on youtube!
Follow your wild heart and scream in the middle of the street!!!
Very very very very very very good. 10/10 dude.
your the man dude, good job!
2020 still stoked!
Fantastic!
This is easily one of the most amazing, interesting, and creative routes I have ever seen.
I admire Sharmas clipping. instant and smooth.
incredible!
you have inspired me to climb again. thanks

This is a rly nice route, i like these high boulder parts ^^
grande sharma, impressionante dreamcatcher!!!
un video estupendo, me encanta ese enfoque de hoy no puedo pero mañana lo conseguire, aparte de la dificultad obvia de esta via, pone el punto mental que hay toda escalada.
me encanta!
Awesome, I was there and watched Sean McColl try it, that was pretty entertaining, but great video!
OH MAN THAT FELT GOOD!~!!
Dude you RULE!

Aside from being one of the best climbers in the world, Chris Sharma seems to be a cool and nice guy.
oh he is on in a million!!
this guy is really an inspiration.
