Great video guys and another fun collaboration. Eric: You will have a much more enjoyable time sport climbing if the clipping happens without any real effort. Also, you won't be back clipping anymore and potentially hurting yourself. Another point about safety; the waist belt of your harness is much to loose. If you were to flip upside down for any reason in a fall there is a possibility that you could pop out of your harness and fall to the ground. The waist belt should make a loop smaller around than your pelvis, making it impossible for it to slide down or for you to pop out of it.
"This is the most pure climbing video I've made in a while so I'm curious to see how it's received." This is the reason I subscribed to your channel. The challenges and stuff are fun, but the real climbing is what I'm here for.
I actually get nervous when you are climbing and the music goes out, i'm just like that's it, he's going to fall, ypu got me in tension the hole climb ahaha, great job dude
The pigeons' sound is the best climbing soundtrack :D also, I totally feel Eric! Bouldering 3times per week makes me feel strong but then every sport climb is a big struggle :D
I'm excited, and I haven't even watched it yet! This ought to tell you your channel is killing it Magnus! 11:00 is just beautiful. I also like the return to a climbing heavy video. It's nice to see again, and gets me stoked for going outside. Also just a comment: I really like Tenerife. The climbs seem like extended boulders. 31:00 is evidence of that. Some of the moves in Eric's video of your previous climb also remind me of that. Really cool stuff.
Amazing video as always, Magnus! Great to see both of you trying hard, and inspiring to see that even amazing climbers leave the crag without sending the project of the day. Thanks!
I love your video's :), and the beautiful shots are very well shot. You inspire me to try climbing. Tomorrow I will go to my local climbing gym for the very first time!
If you go watch the podcast he did with Juji and Tom, he says that he won't talk about nutrition in detail because eating disorders are so common in high level climbing and he doesn't want to enable that.
I really liked this one. The photography really helped me get an idea of just how hard these climbs are. As a non-climber I'm interested in the experience of the climb, not the personalities or fancy camera work. Good job everyone.
Magnus, preferred cleaning strategy for this line would be to follow it on top rope cleaning draws as you re-climb the route belayed on top rope from a redundant anchor at the end of the route (two draws on the chains/ some other anchor configuration)
Woah... Eric's clipping leaves a lot to be desired... Not sure why he was always going for the thumb clip? Was getting it backwards, upside down all sorts. Then the teeth bit :O Glad Magnus told him not to do that!
Well yea, to be fair it's like his third time lead climbing ever and he's climbing something hard. He should hop on a really easy route to work on the gear techniques
I hate when he chalks up in a 2 finger hold and looks like he is resting. You are so strong and giving your best at almost every go. Thanks for inspiring me to train harder every session :)
Magnus you should go to the Red River Gorge for some additional hard climbing. Maybe with Sasha? Loved the video, as always. Keep it up! The quality is so nice if we remember back to the 20k subscriber days.
Ah, Magnus! I was at 12:26 and I found myself thinking: “I feel like this video ends soon, I hope it doesn’t” and then I actually saw the length of that beauty and that satisfying thing when you have 22 minutes more of a brilliant rock climbing! Thank you so much, the vid is awesome
@@EricKarlsson I have my rope next to my TV so I can practice clipping while I watch you and Magnus climb! I'm going outside for the first time in two weeks and I want my clipping skills to be better for confidence.
So respectful of him to not just blindly show how to clean routes so people try to copy and fail because of their lack of experience. If you want to learn how to lead, clean routes, or other climbing safety please take a course! Trust me if you just watch a video and think you know it all and you forget something, you don't want to be playing with your life. Respect to you Magnus and like always great video and fantastic climb!
On 14:00 you can see that the gate is open while he was hanging there. I think that it’s pretty scary to see, how easily this happens. And you won’t even notice it. Edit: After I wrote this comment Magnus saw it😂
@@magmidt So this is what Star-struck feels like , pretty cool to get to interact with you even if it is as minor as a TH-cam comment. Keep the videos coming man they just get better and better.
I know nothing about climbing but I've enjoyed watching your videos. This was hard for me to watch because it looked like your back was sunburnt and it brought back every memory of being sunburnt there and I just couldn't think of anything else. Also I hope you're not sunburnt.
Nunca deis el paso con la cuerda en la boca es peligrosísimo: en caso de caída, además de caer más metros, te puedes hacer una terrible lesión en la boca
Much respect for not saying much about your methods because of safety! Sometimes people say too much without realizing how that info could affect others in a negative way or put them in danger.
I was looking for this comment. I agree absolutely with you. Sometimes it’s better if you say nothing. A bit knowledge is sometimes worse than no knowledge.
Pigeons, “What the fuck dudes? This is our house.” Great video. Like Eric so pumped to climb outside. I’ve never climbed outside, but have been talking to my fellow dustbag friends and we’re planning on it.
I really like your outdoor-lead-videos!!! And it's a great combination seeing you and Eric doing oudoor routes. Really high end climbing by you, and super-stoked-eric as someone, one can (still) relate to in climbing. Although, I think Eric will be crushing some grades in a short time, as he seems really strong in his fingers and he will get more and more used to sport climbing, if he does it more frequently. Anyway, I really enjoy watching him climb (outdoor routes).
Everyone who sent it says the crux on La Silla Electrica in Arico Abajo is on the first quickdraw where you have to do the high heel hook on the left. I guess that's why that part of the route was cut out from the video ;)
I just wann say, like maybe half of the people here i have nothing to do with climbing, but i love the content, its something new, atleast for me and its addictive!! 👌👌👌😁😁😁
I recently took up bouldering. This video makes me want to try sport and climb outside... love the visual style, the story the focus on the technical...
Magnus, I watch all your videos and enjoy them all, but this one was insane. I just can’t believe that it is possible to climb that well. I climb and I understand it all but it just seems that you appear to be climbing on an entirely different planet where gravity is about 1/4 what it is on Earth. Just awe inspiring! By the way, the planet I climb on has gravity about 4 times what it is on Earth, lol...
16:30 ... Did he get it up in the end? ;) [EDIT] Also to anyone new to Magnus' climbing. He doesn't NEED that much chalk, it's just his way of maintaining focus and mentally preparing.
1st comment and like lol edit: OMG Magnus Mitdtø just replied to my comment first time the youtuber has commented or like my comment and he’s my role model that’s insane
I really like this style of video. I also REALLY enjoyed the bits of climbing where there was no music. Just the sounds of the wind and the birds and you climbing was very relaxing and raw. Keep up the good work!
"no way im gonna be able to get it up" nice one right there LMAO. Also loved the switching perspectives with the drone and hand cam on this climb was really neat.
This channel is climbing pr0n. Outstanding work Magnus. The variety, colabs & pure quality stand out. Plus...not a single "power screaming send train posse shouting inane absurdities". THANK U!!
Who pays for all the carabiners left in the mountains all over? Do people ever climb a route then on the way down take all the carabiners so they can go build their own route?
Top notch content guys. Good timing for me too Erik; I onsighted my first 7a and got spanked on a 7b on the weekend too. Although I might add, my clipping was a bit classier ;)
Hey there! New to climbing. I have a question. In bouldering, a 7A is like 4 metres. But is a 7A on lead outdoors the same difficulty for the entire length of the wall? Or would it be 'easier' to climb say 4-5 metres on a 7A outdoors compared to a 7A boulder indoors?
Loved the video! You're the reason you got me into climbing (well only bouldering so far...) and I'm really thankful for that. 5C+ is the best I can do at the moment so still a ways to go :P Would love to see more projects from you. Like really see you working on a route and pushing yourself until you've made it. You could even make several videos about that journey and just space them out over a couple of months.
For me, those moments when there is no "epic" music and effects - just nature, and struggle sounds, are the best. I can actually feel like being there with You guys :)
Going into clipping bootcamp this summer, gains will be made!
Eric Karlsson Bouldering please do before you get hurt! That was tuff to watch 🙈
Nice climbing Eric!! You should try the pinch/scissor method of clipping as well, gives you more reach and is very hard to backclip off!
Only if you can get it up
I almost fell just watching. Palms were sweaty!
Great video guys and another fun collaboration. Eric: You will have a much more enjoyable time sport climbing if the clipping happens without any real effort. Also, you won't be back clipping anymore and potentially hurting yourself. Another point about safety; the waist belt of your harness is much to loose.

The waist belt should make a loop smaller around than your pelvis, making it impossible for it to slide down or for you to pop out of it.
Very nice to see a bit more of a climbing-heavy video from you. The other stuff is fun too, but this is what I come here for!
Magnus: Well, I don't really have any expectations
Also Magnus: It went pretty much as expected
Carlos310123 that’s humorous because you highlighted how he contradicted himself in a fashion that’s popular on the internet.
This post has caused me to produce the hormone known as dopamine
This comment fired signals in my brain and released dopamine and serotonin also known as the happy chemicals
good content. I prefere these videos wich focus on the pure climbing. Very good film work as well.
I do too.
Except for that second crux. I could plainly see that it was absolutely brutal, but there wasn't a good angle to show exactly what what happening.
"This is the most pure climbing video I've made in a while so I'm curious to see how it's received."
This is the reason I subscribed to your channel. The challenges and stuff are fun, but the real climbing is what I'm here for.
I feel like Magnus brings out the best in Eric
I feel like he brings out the best in a lot of people. Just found him today but his attitude is A+
I climbed for the first time ever yesterday because I've been watching this guys videos and I'm instantly hooked on it
@@kennystreet1163 that's nice, how is it going now ? (well, before lockdown ;) )
I actually get nervous when you are climbing and the music goes out, i'm just like that's it, he's going to fall, ypu got me in tension the hole climb ahaha, great job dude

You’re very inspirational to a novice climber like myself! Keep making great content and I’ll keep taking myself to the climbing gym!
Magnus going “beep” after eric swear at 14:55 made me roll around on the floor. He looks like Yoda just levitating up that wall
The pigeons' sound is the best climbing soundtrack :D also, I totally feel Eric! Bouldering 3times per week makes me feel strong but then every sport climb is a big struggle :D
I love how long those vlogs get 😍
I'm not even into climbing but I saw the whole thing and didn't feel 35 minutes had gone by. Very good content.
@@livardo noo, we need longer vlogs :D
Yeah feels like I wanna climb with them too.
The attention span of this generation baffles me. In what universe is 35 minutes a long video? I'd happily watch 2 hour long vlogs from Magnus
The editing is fantastic.
I'm excited, and I haven't even watched it yet!
This ought to tell you your channel is killing it Magnus! 11:00 is just beautiful. I also like the return to a climbing heavy video. It's nice to see again, and gets me stoked for going outside.

Awe! I want to go and climb outside so bad now! The frame with white birds flying by was spectacular! Great editing, Magnus!
That move at 11:58 OMG Eric you beast!
ma man
Seeing Magnus try hard is really refreshing, he is a human after all!
Kind of....Linking that much of an 8c second go....yiyiyi
Nice vid Magnus, you made me wanna climb but my town has no gym so I built one in my shed.😀
That's incredibly inspiring!
pics or it didnt happen! :D
@@Fabi321321 so it didnt happen man
Amazing video as always, Magnus! Great to see both of you trying hard, and inspiring to see that even amazing climbers leave the crag without sending the project of the day. Thanks!
This is the climbing content we want to see , just some cool dudes on some rock trying hard.
I’d blame your fall on the pigeon... just saying it looked a bit distracting😂
love the tips to erick while he climbs
Great video! These are some incredible routes on a truly special island!
I love your video's :), and the beautiful shots are very well shot. You inspire me to try climbing. Tomorrow I will go to my local climbing gym for the very first time!
I just started climbing recently because of you!(maybe 2 months ago) And I climbed my first 5.10 2 days ago!! IM SOOOO INSPIRED FROM YOU!
Magnus I'm curious about your diet and wondered what and when you eat for climbing, love your content dude.
tehre is a video he made awhile back. i think he said burritos :)
@@imbaguitar That's easy enough
he eats whatever he wants. Premium genetics :D
If you go watch the podcast he did with Juji and Tom, he says that he won't talk about nutrition in detail because eating disorders are so common in high level climbing and he doesn't want to enable that.
Magnus eats a steady diet of chocolate, ice cream & wine 😎
I really liked this one. The photography really helped me get an idea of just how hard these climbs are. As a non-climber I'm interested in the experience of the climb, not the personalities or fancy camera work. Good job everyone.

Woah... Eric's clipping leaves a lot to be desired... Not sure why he was always going for the thumb clip? Was getting it backwards, upside down all sorts. Then the teeth bit :O Glad Magnus told him not to do that!
Plus stepping behind the draws!
Well yea, to be fair it's like his third time lead climbing ever and he's climbing something hard. He should hop on a really easy route to work on the gear techniques
YAY! I went to Tenerife a couple months ago!
Last week Magnus vs Crabs, this week Magnus vs Pigeons. Tune in next week for the latest Magnus vs Nature episode!
I'm from the Canary Islands and when Cristian said "venga bicho!" I was like
Very nice video, nice to see you try hard :)
“Who’s that pale Norwegian?”😂😂cracks me up.
I hate when he chalks up in a 2 finger hold and looks like he is resting. You are so strong and giving your best at almost every go. Thanks for inspiring me to train harder every session :)
Great vid my hands started sweating watching this!
Back clipping also adds to the rope drag
"It's raining teeth.... Hallelujah!"
Incoming Magnus's record version
Yaaaas! Sweet vid 🤙🏽

I like how relatable Eric is when climbing, in comparison to the beast Magnus
Such a cool climb!
Great video!
looks like a super solid 8c+
Erics route looked like so much fun. I wanna go to tenerife!
If you're have the change go there! I was there last year, its a climbing paradise and the climate is great.
not gonna lie, this was badass
Those pigeons had it out for you my guy
You guys are very inspiring 😊 Booked onto a lead climbing course off the back of watching your Blogs 😎
Wohooooo I didn't know that you went here❤️❤️❤️ cool man cool!!
Watching Eric climb is makinmg me relive the clipping horrors of my first ever sport climbing trip :D
:D

Ironic that this is the 'hardest' climb in tenerife when Eric couldn't get it up 🤔🤔
My island😍
I would constantly be worried about those pins coming out of the rock face.
The dudes mustache is on fleek
Watching these videos always makes me so psyched to climb more. Super inspiration guys! 💕
Why does your camera guy own a huge restaurant...

7A boulder: very explosive and technically hard.
7A lead climbing: dificult moves on some places. you will need endurance to climb the whole route.
When the music quit at about 24:00 I started to hold my breath. It was insane.
