So impressed that this coach was able to take someone with no climbing experience and then give them 15 years of pro climbing experience in just one session. Incredible!
As they say the biggest achievement is when your student becomes your teacher! This Bjorn guy for sure was squeezing jugs for a long long time to be flashing v8s so easily
A lot of people suffering from social anxiety would benefit A LOT if there were more instructors like that guy. He did a fantastic job. Give him a raise!
I feel like I definitely would be somewhere else in this life if at least few people I've met were like him I have a severe social anxiety right now and idk how to deal with it alone, it gets even worse when I try to do something with it :(
Ive taken my three young children each to rock climbing. Each teacher was a different, young teenaged type like this guy. They were all as genuine fantastic as this guy was. It seems a wholesome community.
I feel like a lot of people would feel salty about a new climber being better than them but he kept being really supportive and was genuinely impressed, what a bloke
yeah, I would probably get really frustrated if a noob did better then me at the thing im working on in forever, but he looked so excited to see "bjorn" do the climb he was working on, he seems like a great person
@@robotbro7187 it’s kinda understandable tho. Sometimes I see artists younger than myself being at a much higher skill/technical rate and it makes me wonder if it’s even worth doing anymore, it’s the only thing I am good at and yet there’s those who had less time still being better than me. Obviously, it shouldn’t be used to discourage or be mean to said person but the internal feelings remain
That coach is my hero. The way he encouraged and didn’t show any attitude once he was passed up by his student. What an incredible dude! This was great Magnus!
he knew. Doing a V3 on your first day... yeah ok. you did sport before. Flashing a V4 on your first day ; yeah ok, maybe a natural genius. Flashing V5 and V6 ... with a camera behind you... naaah. never.
@@vincenthamel3420 not really. Some people are beast. Over v6 I would agree it gets suspicious but before that, you can have insane body strength coming from another sport with a lot of transferred knowledge/skills, ex: male ballet dancers.
Until you realize the whole thing is staged and the instructor an actor or at least in on the whole story to generate views. Don't you think it's really obvious?
@@dbbl The pro says to the trainer that he is filming and wants to look good for the film around 18:00. I think that he told him that he was filming for another reason -- it seems that the trainer is genuine to me.
Great coach! I have been a youth coach for many different ages and girls and boys. He has the right attitude and uses quick simple analogies when he can.
The instructor is either an Academy Award worthy actor in disguise OR just an absolutely awesome human being and teacher. Guy seriously needs his own channel.
@Jason Voorhees My daughter named her puppy after you when she was almost 5.. He's almost 9, 110 pounds, and scares the sh** out of my usually fearless brother. Any time he overstays his welcome, all I gotta do is head for the backdoor🤣🤣🤣
@Jason Voorhees She's fearless tbh. She outgrew haunted houses by 6, and I mean the ones that had teen girls crying. Mind you, it was Halloween, and i was watching Jason Takes Manhattan. She walked in right as Jason knocked that kid's head off on the roof. She was crying laughing when it landed in the dumpster. Here's the awesome part of the story. A few months after that, this huge dude at the Indianapolis Airport told her he'd never seen a kid that young with a Jason necklace. It was Kane Hodder, who played Jason multiple times including the Manhattan one. He was cracking up when she told him about the head part, and LOVED that she named her puppy after him. He took pictures with her and gave her an autographed one. He added: "To Berea, my biggest little fan. You have a horrible father!!!" It's still on her wall to this day.
Magnus is secretly a physical comedian, his pratfalls in this were all amazing! I loved how his first fall he absolutely crumpled into a puddle lmao. It takes a master to be so completely believable and hilarious
@@jacksimeri2890 because at the start of the video they explained that part of the prank was telling the instructor that is for a documentary for some program in iceland. i guess you missed it.
Everyone's talking about the coach but I'm really impressed with Magnus' ability to fall with comedic effect. It's funny as hell to watch him fall on purpose.
Triston was my roommate and one of my close friends from college. All I gotta say is all the positivity in this comment section directed towards Triston is amazing to see. He’s a humble, intelligent and kind individual that is more than deserving of all the praise! Thank you all for your kindness! P.S. I only found out about this video because it dropped into my recommended at 3AM. The world is weird man haha
I feel like mountain climbers are always based AF. The Alpinist was the coolest person I've seen made a documentary made about him (rip). The only weird one I've seen is the Free Solo guy.. he was kinda lame.
We all knew Magnus was a great climber. But Magnus is also one of the best climbing actors. Using the middle of his feet not his toes, breathing heavy, hips off the wall, and falling off forward. Incredible acting.
That fall where he swung backwards with one hand and splatted face first into the mat, was hilarious. I have no idea how that instructor held back his laughter at that. That young man is great at his job.
The instructor didn't laughed because he would look bad if his "student" gets harm under his supervision. Magnus's fall was priceless, and that young instructor was very professional ! 👍
@@tomassedlacik7236 That was what I was gonna say! A lot of people in this position would become kinda spiteful I think to see someone so casually succeed at something they had to work so hard at
I have been a spin class and yoga instructor for over 12 years of my life. I’ve worked with hundreds of coaches. This coach’s humility, love for climbing, support and lack of preconceived notions or limits of his students is the best I’ve ever seen. I wish this guy the very best the world has to offer.
I came to praise the instructor, and I’m glad I’m not the only one! He is so passionate and so excited to make other people as excited, plus the way he explains things and gives feedback and compliments.. any company would be lucky with an employee like that. What a delight to watch.
I’ve been coaching youth hockey over 30 years. This young man is everything you’d want in a coach. Very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, very precise instructions along with encouragement and a genuine love for the sport!
@@fazelezleyno.1fan871 I'd give it at best ok. Maybe they cut it out but the instructor should give a demo in my opinion. Maybe I'm being too cautious but knowing how to fall is more important than knowing how to climb.
@@bigfattank101 It very well could have also been brought at other points and just not made the video. The video is shot from the perspective of the audience knowing who he is so it's very possible there were other parts that were also cut out since the emphasis isn't on his safety or anything. Based on the way he was talking about Magnus' falls it sounds like that was the one thing he was worried about that he falling pretty aggressively, but again for all we know there are a lot of other bits like the part that was edited in at the end of him falling that were just cut out. It's kind of hard to judge his instruction without knowing how much more unused footage there is they just didn't use, didn't get, etc.
I've never seen someone, let alone a coach, so down to earth and genuine about teaching his student. He's so so optimistic and encouraging and never tried to show off once. He was so humble and was genuinely happy for his student's success. He really warmed my heart when he mentioned climbing together and I think he's truly a gem as a coach/climber/person. I hope there are more people like him in the community
I love that the coach noticed, “This guy might be better than me,” but he was still willing to climb with him and be shown up. The showing of a true teacher is one that is happy to see his students surpass him. Excellent job.
I was so confused for a moment... literally thought I posted this cause we have the same pfp's. I was like I don't remember posting this...? Also I never sound that eloquent when talking. Lol
@@oldvlognewtricks Oh he knew at that point. No one is flashing a v6 and all their first day. Most people would get smoked moving up through the grades the way Magnus did here. That was the main thing that tipped him off I think. Magnus needed no breaks, which as a teacher of many first time climbers, raised a few red flags I'm sure.
It's not just an happy thing, but a dream. I am learning to teach mathematics and thus knowledgeable on the subject. If a student used a method I didn't taught and even that I don't know, I would congratule the student and thank him for showing me an interesting way to do it. And the next batch of students would hear that there was a student who ... ^^ I will also be a teacher who devise problems with nice alternative solutions and shortcuts for the astute students. It's true that student have to learn the things, but why not make them enjoy it untethered of fear of mistake and judgement ? Also, the school in which I am learning is pushing Montessori method (socioconstructivism) and it happen that when I discovered her, I admired her work. We also learn other methods, because classes are big and time limited and those can do the job too, but they are less likeable (behaviorism and imprint).
@@JarthenGreenmeadow What other sport could he have done that might have covered for it? Gymnastics, sure… but maybe Ninja Warrior or crossfit or something strange would have been better camouflage
The coach was so awesome, the actual joy watching Magnus climb and flash the boulders is why I love the climbing community. Sure it’s hard watching someone demolish a climb you’ve been projecting for weeks, but you’re also psyched that they did it, the route is possible, and they enjoyed it. Props to him and to you Magnus, y’all are what make climbing great!
you can really say that the coach loves climbing, i thought it was strong how he visualized every step with his client and virtually climbed along. really also rhetorically very strong and very well explained.
Yep, that's why when he realized that he was obviously not working with a beginner the first thing he did was ask if he minded if he got his shoes so he could climb with him lol. Magnus had to realize the jig was up by that point.
@@ParaAkula Yep! Awesome instructor, I'd love to take classes with him. I'm so glad I found this video, I grew up climbing a bit outdoors but I haven't done it as an adult (well aside from bouldering at the park) but I've never been in a climbing gym, I've only climbed standard walls at Amusement Park type places. I looked up my local one and it's less than 20 minutes away, I'm going by one day this week to rent some shoes and try some patterns and stuff out! If it seems like my thing (spoiler alert, I already know it's my thing lol) I'll be getting a membership I'm freaking stoked to go! I was getting ready to sign up for a gym membership again (I have limited equipment and weights at home) but this seems like a far, far more fun way to stay in shape!
@@Nightwishmaster He realized that he wasn't coaching a beginner right around the time he explained what a "flash" is in climbing. He says, "if this is your first time climbing."
@@cuylshepherdton7437 Actually, after going back and watching it again knowing exactly what is going to happen there are a bunch of other points as well where Magnus gives it away a bit that I didn't really pay attention to the first time, including a few random times his accent totally slips (like around the 14:00 mark it sounds just like him as if he forgot then the next time he speaks it's like he remembers to do the accent again) or he moves in ways only a climber would naturally move. You're right, somehow I didn't catch that the first time! As soon as he starts the V5 it definitely confirms it but I didn't realize until I went back and watched it closer the second time how many times he makes it obvious early in the video too lol. Though I wouldn't be surprised if the guy caught on pretty early but played it cool, it's exactly what I would do if I were him and I figured it out, I wouldn't say a word unless he confirmed it at the end. He seems like a really good sport about it either way, bet he's a cool dude.
The kid helping him is amazing. I wish all ‘noobs’ had an instructor with the patience, understanding, and enthusiasm he had for a client who really was kinda doing his own thing the entire time. Kudos to this kid! He deserves a HUGE raise cause he just gave this facility the most incredible free advertising of the kind of business they’re running there.
I know you don't mean it in a wrong way but calling a mature person a kid is little arrogant. I'm 28 (yes, you're probably older) but even if I talk to a 20yo I don't call him a kid.
@damian you prob took it the wrong way he's not being arrogant . I can't find the fitting word right now but he's kinda like a proud dad seeing his kid doing good
RIGHT! Like thats the kind of person you want to invest in and keep in your business. Like if i saw people like this in my business, id want to put keys and opportunities in their hands.
Wow!! That instructor deserves a raise. Before and after he had his suspicions. He was kind, encouraging and super knowledgeable. He wasn’t just saying “ do this “ but was very detailed about each movement! 🎉🎉
We need to give this coach a platform and people to push him to the top of the industry. The passion for this he has ooze's from him. People like this rarely exist in the world anymore. We need to protect this kid.
He wouldn't teach at the top of the industry. He would have to organize other teachers, and who knows if he'd be good at that or even like it. Seems like he's perfect where he is, even though he probably has earned a raise.
I know this was advertised as a "prank" video, but this is the best introduction to climbing video I have ever seen. Kudos to Triston for being awesome. He can coach me any day.
I think this could be the best way to make new people intrested in climbing. I would never click on a video if the title was "Introduction to climbing". I came here to see a prank, but I got interested in climbing.
God sent his one and only son to die for you cus he loved you so much. Stop sinning and praise him to show that you love him back, then you'll get to Heaven.
I've never expressed an interest in climbing in my whole life, but Triston made it look accessible without making it look easy. Dude had such a fantastic energy, was super knowledgeable, and didn't get agitated when an "amateur" was beating his climbs with little to no effort. Really like that guy, felt like he tied the whole video together.
Idk, he was nice but super reserved with praise. If I had ever had a squash student nearly as talented as "Björn" already looked halfway into the video, I would've been "dude you should know that you're a natural and I've never seen anyone this good right off the bat" instead of "nice. Yeah I guess most people progress somewhat slower than you" lmao
@@jkommah He did give a lot of praise though, like when he explained what a "flash" was, just his demeanor is rather relaxed when he talks about it, which isn't a bad thing. Doesn't have to be overly energetic to give good praise, I think he did well
@@jkommah i think he was already suspicious of what was going on by the time Magnus was just flashing things that an absolute beginner should have no business even climbing haha
The coach is so great. He was put in a position where he could have embarrassed himself but he was patient, supportive, good at explaining, and recognized talent when he saw it. Not that I could ever climb but I learned things from him during this video.
This guy is an excellent teacher. The best teachers are unphased by whatever their students throw at them, and can smoothly scale up the level of their instruction to both provide positive feedback on accomplishments and identify areas for potential improvement. I am so impressed with him. What an exceptional coach.
The instructor was fantastic. As someone who has been a trainer (not climbing), I can tell you this is the type of person you want as an instructor. He was very patient, and good at making the person feel confortable exploring their limits. Fantastic job and great video!!!
and super humble! imagine seeing someone flashing your grade on their "first time climbing" ahahah Not once did he stop him from going up the grades :D
yaah! even just explaining to not let numbers define your expierience in climbing (both ways) was so wholesome :D especially good for a beginner to hear
I'm no climber and haven't ever watched climbing videos but this was amazing to watch. I'm a huge fan of someone with experience going and being "taught" their passion by someone who also has the passion and the respect they gain from each other. Its always amazing watching someone meet a hero of theirs 😊
The details of the acting for V0-V4 were quite impressive. The T-rex arms and straight legs, the re-gripping and re-stepping. Not using the toe and not looking at feet. The alternating not breathing with breathing really hard. And of course, the over-the-top dramatic falls. Oscar-worthy!
I thought the most impressive part was the LESS dramatic falls. It's just the attention to detail. They weren't BAD falls, but they were awkward beginner falls where you might end up on your face or laying on your back instead of just landing to your feet and butt and staying upright
I think the guy obviously sussed it out pretty fast, but if he hadn't it'd be so insane seeing this ABSURDLY strong dude basically campus his entire way up the walls while kicking his legs around like a dizzy toddler 😂
The coach was frickin amazing.. he was super concise and articulate.. all the while being supportive and giving great feed back and he never put any negativity in his head.
Top notch video, not only was it funny to watch him slowly realize this is NOT a beginner, but it shows beginners a bit of what they should expect. Tristan is great. That's the kind of person I'd want as a coach. His approach naturally makes trying something new seem less intimidating. He offers good advice, encouragement, and makes sure people feel like it's ok to test their boundaries at their own pace. I'm sure seeing this has made people a little more comfortable with the idea of going and giving this a try. I hope they gave him a raise :)
This would be awesome. I coached for a local gym when i was in highschool, i could happily do a V5 as a warmup at the time.. I learned a few things from Triston in this video, as crazy as that might be. He's a great coach, and seems to be a stand up guy.
GIVE THIS COACH A RAISE! He deserves it, not everyone can thoroughly explain things while keeping a high level of enthusiasm like he does. Can tell he's a genuine, kind hearted person all around with great knowledge! Great job coach & fantastic acting Magnus 😁
@@sonicartzldesignerclan5763 Relax Karen, you're looking way too far into it. I'm sure the other 1K people that liked this post will agree with me. Based off everything in the video, people like him are extremely hard to come by. So with that being said a raise would be more incentive to keep him around as well as gratitude for his amazing coaching skills & attitude.
@@dannyd376 Bro just cause 1k people have the same stupid mind dosnt make it good Youre not his chef you know him not even the slightest you just saw a video no more no less thats no indicator to say if he deserved a raise or not You dont even know if he do it good LMAO
If anything this highlights this coach's teaching ability and love of climbing. He kept getting more and more happy about Magnus' progress, and I appreciated that. "If you're up for it, I'd NEVER stop you" What a good guy!
The teacher is amazing and clearly knows how to make someone comfortable with learning. We need more ppl like him to be teachers. Also the framing at 11:47 is comedic genius, straight out of a cartoon.
I think this is the best climbing ambassador video ever made. It’s fun, the coach is excellent, the positivity through the roof. Magnus accidentally found the perfect video idea, the perfect coach, on the perfect day to promote the culture and satisfaction of climbing. Well done lads! Tristan definitely deserves another video with Magnus for his contribution.
Yeah, It looks interesting. I'm 6'4 ans slim and I always liked hopping fences and watched parkour videos, but this looks more like something I could try.
My only critique is that he makes it look so easy that sometimes it feels not like something special. I never climbed in my life and am 100% I would struggle hard even on V0 but he made V4 and V5 so easy, that it feels like climbing is super easy
I'm a 280lb 33 year old and that kid makes me want to learn to climb. Amazing teacher, so chill, zero ego, zero forcing of his will onto your style... Just awesome.
On new years 2022 I was 269 pounds, I made a promise to be 200 pounds by new years 2023 and as of now I am 220 pounds and am going to begin climbing on Monday ! I hope I reach my 200 pound weight goal by new years and hopefully I can climb
I dont climb, nor do I watch climbing videos. This randomly came up on TH-cam and I am thoroughly impressed by both of these guys. Fantastic and knowledgeable coach and great acting from the pro. If I were in the area I'd pay for Tristan to teach me the ropes after watching this. Both seem very humble, real, and down to earth. I wish there were more videos like this
same here, I also love when Mangus said he had 13k followers and told the coach he was going to be famous. The coach is like great thanks, not knowing he was really going to get 3 million plus views.
The absolute best coaches are the ones who care about YOUR success. At no point did this guy go "let me show you something"... love how humble this dude was. Hope he got some good techniques watching Magnus
I'm back watching this video a year later and hoping I'm every bit as humble as I was a year ago... and the truth is I've probably gained 50lbs of climbing weight and I'm even MORE moved by the humble positive support of this coach. 100% please find a humble person to coach you in ANYTHING you do... climbing, running, executive leadership, whatever... humble are the people you can trust
I'm a private teacher (music) and I can see on that teacher that he is EXCELLENT. You see the tension in his face, absolute focus on the student, that constant wish of "I wish he does well, I want him to do well", which is actual mental effort good teachers find themselves in, even though it doesn't really do anything. I recognize on him everything I go through watching students :)
im so glad all the comments are about the teacher and really positive, im an instructor for high ropes and body boarding on a wave machine and hope this guy sees the praise hes getting for his great work!!!!
I love how tristian was eager to watch him climb the purple route after he failed because that just shows he’s willing to learn from anybody. That just shows that he’s a very good climber believing that he can learn from anyone
So impressed by the coach. Whatever he does in his life, it should involve teaching. It's a gift and he has it in spades. His demeanor, encouragement, lack of ego and generosity of spirit were so touching to watch.
Is there any chance we can get a reverse coaching for triston as a follow up video? you definitely have the tools to take him up to the next level, he really seems like a great guy with a huge passion for his sport.
Gotta admit it.. If I was paying good $$$ for coaching this is exactly what I'd want to receive from a professional. He's actually a very thorough and concise coach that seems passionate about his work and his students progress and safety. Awesome video.
Watching magnus slowly speed up on each climb was hilarious. I was waiting to see if the coach would say anything but I think it speaks more to his character that he didn’t. This video was genuinely hilarious and props to the coach for being such a down to earth guy
would have been nice if he got him to do the routes as well show how hard/easy it really is, is really tough to gauge off guys like Magnus... need a normal human for control
Hell yea. He seemed like such a solid guy. Patient, kind, encouraging, knowledgeable. Seeing Magnus climb with and coach him, even helping him finish the climb(v7) that he wanted to do would be awesome.
That instructor was fantastic. He is one of those who makes you come back even if you don’t get it or even like it. He would encourage you no matter how bad you are. A+!!
This is like the forth time I've come back to watch this video. This coach is so awesome, the most amazing thing is that he seemingly had no ego, he was just happy you were progressing. I'm sure a lot of people in general would get insecure and gatekeepy about something they're so passionate about, but he was always positive and always encouraging.
I find that with individual sports, such as climbing and skateboarding, that for the most part your 'competitors' are really hyped when you do well. It doesn't matter if you are better or worse than them, your peers will support your efforts, cheer your successes, give you pointers to improve, and are there for you. Even though these sports may be 'individual', your are a part of the community, and the wins are shared by all!! : )
@@Keneo1 No, not that. You can tell from how precisely and quickly he grabs holds and then he angles fluidly around them with zero apparent effort. A beginner would look rigid and struggling with holds.
I am in huge awe how this coach is using the language. For a foreigner which I am, there was not a single word or phrase that confused me. And this is a value worth helluva lot in terms of teaching - using understandable language. Kudos to this young man.
The way Tristan adapted throughout, constantly providing relevant feedback during and following the climb he’d seen Magnus do. To not be phased and adapting to the progression at that pace. To not show any ounce of jealousy at being surpassed. To the way he politely checked his suspicions without accusation of the ‘learner’ just in case. This climbing gym is lucky to have such a talented, well mannered coach andI hope he is recognised for has excellent capabilities as a coach and just as a human in general. Magnus, in what I’ve seen, you are the better climber, shoot the better videos and do an awesome job, but Tristan on this evidence is the better coach!
Most coaches anywhere would most likely have asked multiple times “are you sure you haven’t done this before” implicitly trying to call u out. But that guy just continues with his advice and keeps being supportive regardless of how high his suspicion levels are
honestly i think the AC/DC T-shirt and the mustache are wayy suspicious right from the start. I think he knew very early but had nothing to loose to play on with the prank. Great mindset by the young man.
@@whiteyoshibrosit is if asked once, if asked multiple times even though they know you answered the question already is actually an insult as if you are lying to them because it is bothering them that you are that good but that guy didn’t ask once.
This has to be one of the best "undercover pro" videos I've ever seen. Magnus started to show some skill and dexterity slowly and then pulled back ASAP to keep the illusion that maybe what he did that was clean movement was accidental lmao absolutely loved this entire video.
This guy is everything a trainer should be- patient, knowledgeable, humble, kind… He excels. Good man. If ever I wanted to learn to climb, I’d be more thrilled to take lessons from him. ❤
I mean as a casual climber, I've coached many people stronger than me. I've been coaching friends since climbing on V3s, but many of my friends are so strong with sports background that they are climbing V3/V4s on their first go - yes they can hold 40mm edges like it's nothing without training. Not the 20mm edges but 40mm edges full body weight holding fingers are more than enough to get thru V4s with technique coaching. I guided a first time climber thru a V4 that I could not do myself at the time. He had the strength, I had the knowledge. It's actually really rewarding. It made me feel like I finished the route thru him. Obviously at some point that becomes impossible, not first timer climbs a V8. Still, you get my point.
@@slbaaron Story of mu life. I am short and heavy but love bouldering. I keep introducing new friends to the sport who immediately perform better than I do but I like to discuss projects with them and figure out stuff together :)
What an awesome video !! Tristan is a great coach, he explained the basics so well !! And Magnus, you played the beginner climber so incredibly well, it was amazing. The bad footwork, the heavy breathing, the hips out, the falls… fantastic job

I was thinking the same thing. He is fun, keeps the convo going, gives praise and overall seems really chill. Really good coach

That coach is my hero. The way he encouraged and didn’t show any attitude once he was passed up by his student. What an incredible dude! This was great Magnus!
he knew.
Doing a V3 on your first day... yeah ok. you did sport before.
Flashing a V4 on your first day ; yeah ok, maybe a natural genius.
Flashing V5 and V6 ... with a camera behind you... naaah. never.
Loved how once he realized the student was really good he went to get his shoes and climb with him
I was impressed with coach too. Fantastic teaching technique. Great encouragement and explanations.
I hope they had a nice climbing session together after that.
@@vincenthamel3420 not really. Some people are beast. Over v6 I would agree it gets suspicious but before that, you can have insane body strength coming from another sport with a lot of transferred knowledge/skills, ex: male ballet dancers.
Wow the coach's enthusiasm and encouragement is great, a rare thing, what a positive person.
This was my feeling, too. This vibes get you into something new so much easier.
Until you realize the whole thing is staged and the instructor an actor or at least in on the whole story to generate views. Don't you think it's really obvious?

@@dbbl The pro says to the trainer that he is filming and wants to look good for the film around 18:00. I think that he told him that he was filming for another reason -- it seems that the trainer is genuine to me.

Great coach! I have been a youth coach for many different ages and girls and boys. He has the right attitude and uses quick simple analogies when he can.

That guy is a natural coach. Humble, gracious, and positive. Giving as much info as he can without a bunch of fluff. Straight to the point.
ya he did a good job ;D if he would be my coach i would enjoy my stay
7:06 Magnus said that too!
Natural lol. so disgenuine
This is the best description that fits him. Well done.
@Cream Cheese Thanks! I learned what a pfp is today. My Urban dictionary is quite bare.
The instructor is either an Academy Award worthy actor in disguise OR just an absolutely awesome human being and teacher. Guy seriously needs his own channel.
@Jason Voorhees maybe, but we will never know.
@Jason Voorhees My daughter named her puppy after you when she was almost 5.. He's almost 9, 110 pounds, and scares the sh** out of my usually fearless brother. Any time he overstays his welcome, all I gotta do is head for the backdoor🤣🤣🤣
@Jason Voorhees She's fearless tbh. She outgrew haunted houses by 6, and I mean the ones that had teen girls crying. Mind you, it was Halloween, and i was watching Jason Takes Manhattan. She walked in right as Jason knocked that kid's head off on the roof. She was crying laughing when it landed in the dumpster. Here's the awesome part of the story. A few months after that, this huge dude at the Indianapolis Airport told her he'd never seen a kid that young with a Jason necklace. It was Kane Hodder, who played Jason multiple times including the Manhattan one. He was cracking up when she told him about the head part, and LOVED that she named her puppy after him. He took pictures with her and gave her an autographed one. He added: "To Berea, my biggest little fan. You have a horrible father!!!" It's still on her wall to this day.

He reminds me of Marc rebillet

Magnus is secretly a physical comedian, his pratfalls in this were all amazing! I loved how his first fall he absolutely crumpled into a puddle lmao. It takes a master to be so completely believable and hilarious
He felt like mr Bean in the opening of his show.
ur glazing him rn
@@D.S.handleTHANK YOU!!!!! I couldn’t remember what it reminded me of and this is EXACTLY IT!!!! 😂
Why is no one talking about the fact that therre was a cameraman there the whole time
@@jacksimeri2890 because at the start of the video they explained that part of the prank was telling the instructor that is for a documentary for some program in iceland. i guess you missed it.
Everyone's talking about the coach but I'm really impressed with Magnus' ability to fall with comedic effect. It's funny as hell to watch him fall on purpose.
Great acting Magnus!
Yes those falls were hilarious. I wonder how soft or hard the mat is. I would need it to be as soft as a mattress.
laugh out loud funny for sure even on the replay
Magnus really sold out for his performance. Had me dying the whole time.
seriously, those falls were amazing!
he had to PUSH himself out of the wall to fall, it was sooo funny. AND THE FACE PLANT OMG.
I love how Magnus immediately asks about chalk, some things never change lol
He called it powder 🤣
Seeing him use the chalk ball lol
He needs it to live
"I'm gonna need some powder, but not for my hands."
The chalk was the earliest giveaway that he knew what he was doing. Waaayyy too smooth at reaching behind his back for a pouch he'd never used before.
Triston was my roommate and one of my close friends from college. All I gotta say is all the positivity in this comment section directed towards Triston is amazing to see. He’s a humble, intelligent and kind individual that is more than deserving of all the praise! Thank you all for your kindness!
P.S. I only found out about this video because it dropped into my recommended at 3AM. The world is weird man haha
Zach!!! Thank you man, that means a lot!
Zach Gattis is a legendary bassist who once brought tears to my face with his funky bass slapping!
I've got to admit, I never seen two roommates reunite with each other through a youtube comment section
@@solanaceous wholesome moment!
I always wanted to randomly see someone i know in a youtube vid at 3AM that's funny man lol
Here for the reunion
That kid is exactly what any type of instructor should be. He has a bright future ahead of him.
This is what a great teacher is like. Composed, respectful, down to earth, yet still incredibly knowledgeable.
I feel like mountain climbers are always based AF. The Alpinist was the coolest person I've seen made a documentary made about him (rip). The only weird one I've seen is the Free Solo guy.. he was kinda lame.
@@Scawtsauce wait whats wrong with the free solo guy?
We all knew Magnus was a great climber. But Magnus is also one of the best climbing actors. Using the middle of his feet not his toes, breathing heavy, hips off the wall, and falling off forward. Incredible acting.
Scary how hard he can make a V0! Insane how good he can look like a beginner.
POV: he's an actor and has been lying to us this whole time
For real man. Magnus did such a good job here lol
I love how he unnecessarily puts his foot on the pink hold before matching. perfect attention to newbie details
@@qarms3145 but he acting a climber quite well
That fall where he swung backwards with one hand and splatted face first into the mat, was hilarious. I have no idea how that instructor held back his laughter at that. That young man is great at his job.
He only said good job! Just awesome
That was classic, haha
That shit had me dyingggg. Magnus could've been a stuntman with that performance
The instructor didn't laughed because he would look bad if his "student" gets harm under his supervision. Magnus's fall was priceless, and that young instructor was very professional ! 👍
Timestamp?
10:20 had me crying of laughter. The commitment to the ruse is top notch.
i laughed out loud in a room full of people
same here
😂
Never gets old.
i was dying every time he fell
That young man is an amazing coach. So positive, so passionate about climbing, and very polite.
His instruction is perfect. Perfect explanation of every move
Agreed.
Watching that coach made the video! Sometimes you can see kindness in someone’s soul… Triston, enjoyed your passion, brother! 🙏
That that good vibe you get from them good vibe parents
The coach is very good at his job. He shows patience, empathy, is very encouraging, and is very good at explaining climbing clearly.
I like how he isn't jealous.
@@tomassedlacik7236 That was what I was gonna say! A lot of people in this position would become kinda spiteful I think to see someone so casually succeed at something they had to work so hard at
I wish my intro was with someone like that actually, he explained a lot of things that I only found out months and years after
And he gives air pushes just to help out! what a kind dude!
See I thought the opposite wasn't sure if he was a good advert for the gym at first but he won me over
Those falls in the roof had me cracking up 😂😂
Big credit to the coach in that one, for great tips and being such a good sport 👍
cracking up
Absolutely same here! 😂
Same 😂
I wonder if his British accent was inspired by Pete’s at all😂
Gosh I laughed for about 10 minutes and watched the fall over and over again. The sound he makes when falling is awesome too
I have been a spin class and yoga instructor for over 12 years of my life. I’ve worked with hundreds of coaches. This coach’s humility, love for climbing, support and lack of preconceived notions or limits of his students is the best I’ve ever seen. I wish this guy the very best the world has to offer.
I came to praise the instructor, and I’m glad I’m not the only one! He is so passionate and so excited to make other people as excited, plus the way he explains things and gives feedback and compliments.. any company would be lucky with an employee like that. What a delight to watch.
Same here
No wonder. You think as part of herd, as sheep.
I also just came to praise the instructor and I just noticed everyone else did ❤❤❤
@@SeregaOrganthe ones calling others sheep are not wolves
@@KRACKER300atleast not the sheep
The commitment to the fake falls was really impressive. Great video. The coach was awesome as well.
Didn't know you were into climbing, super cool to see you here!
Cub?
so apparently my favourite hermit is also into my favourite climber!
madness
Omg hi cub!! Best crossover ever
fun to see you here cub, you ever boulder or climb? ^^
The fall on the first arch climb was simply majestic. Massive props to committing to it.
I laughed so hard at that fall, just brilliant!
I think I replayed this 50 times already :D
Likee he actually committed to fall in his face 😮
So funny!
Lol. “I would say that counts”
You can see in the eyes that the instructor was simply having the time of his life. Awesome guy.
I’ve been coaching youth hockey over 30 years. This young man is everything you’d want in a coach. Very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, very precise instructions along with encouragement and a genuine love for the sport!
your spot on
Only thing he's missing is a care for safety he should have a demonstration for how to fall lol.
@@bigfattank101 around the 3:06 mark I think he explains falling pretty well
@@fazelezleyno.1fan871 I'd give it at best ok. Maybe they cut it out but the instructor should give a demo in my opinion. Maybe I'm being too cautious but knowing how to fall is more important than knowing how to climb.
@@bigfattank101 It very well could have also been brought at other points and just not made the video. The video is shot from the perspective of the audience knowing who he is so it's very possible there were other parts that were also cut out since the emphasis isn't on his safety or anything. Based on the way he was talking about Magnus' falls it sounds like that was the one thing he was worried about that he falling pretty aggressively, but again for all we know there are a lot of other bits like the part that was edited in at the end of him falling that were just cut out. It's kind of hard to judge his instruction without knowing how much more unused footage there is they just didn't use, didn't get, etc.
I've never seen someone, let alone a coach, so down to earth and genuine about teaching his student. He's so so optimistic and encouraging and never tried to show off once. He was so humble and was genuinely happy for his student's success. He really warmed my heart when he mentioned climbing together and I think he's truly a gem as a coach/climber/person. I hope there are more people like him in the community
i mean its in front of a camera
@@BrainRot4Life-j4z Explain yourself more please.
@@adamkorekach9936 he means that most are genuinely more kind infront of a camera
@@kingslayer5934 true, but I think its hard to keep a mask for such a long time I think he is just genuinely like that
When somebody is filming you, of course you're on your best behavior.
I love that the coach noticed, “This guy might be better than me,” but he was still willing to climb with him and be shown up. The showing of a true teacher is one that is happy to see his students surpass him. Excellent job.
I wonder if 16:16 isn’t sending a message that something sus is going on 😆
I was so confused for a moment... literally thought I posted this cause we have the same pfp's. I was like I don't remember posting this...? Also I never sound that eloquent when talking. Lol
@@oldvlognewtricks Oh he knew at that point. No one is flashing a v6 and all their first day. Most people would get smoked moving up through the grades the way Magnus did here.
That was the main thing that tipped him off I think. Magnus needed no breaks, which as a teacher of many first time climbers, raised a few red flags I'm sure.
It's not just an happy thing, but a dream. I am learning to teach mathematics and thus knowledgeable on the subject. If a student used a method I didn't taught and even that I don't know, I would congratule the student and thank him for showing me an interesting way to do it. And the next batch of students would hear that there was a student who ... ^^
I will also be a teacher who devise problems with nice alternative solutions and shortcuts for the astute students.
It's true that student have to learn the things, but why not make them enjoy it untethered of fear of mistake and judgement ?
Also, the school in which I am learning is pushing Montessori method (socioconstructivism) and it happen that when I discovered her, I admired her work. We also learn other methods, because classes are big and time limited and those can do the job too, but they are less likeable (behaviorism and imprint).
@@JarthenGreenmeadow What other sport could he have done that might have covered for it? Gymnastics, sure… but maybe Ninja Warrior or crossfit or something strange would have been better camouflage
The coach was so awesome, the actual joy watching Magnus climb and flash the boulders is why I love the climbing community. Sure it’s hard watching someone demolish a climb you’ve been projecting for weeks, but you’re also psyched that they did it, the route is possible, and they enjoyed it. Props to him and to you Magnus, y’all are what make climbing great!
The long sleeves where the most important part of Bjorn's disguise
Can't hide the climber's hands... unless Magnus is a bricklayer
Terrible disguise! Lol
@Nick M he was a gymnast, don't forget...
The disguise makes him look like Rivers Cuomo from Weezer
J
you can really say that the coach loves climbing, i thought it was strong how he visualized every step with his client and virtually climbed along. really also rhetorically very strong and very well explained.
Yep, that's why when he realized that he was obviously not working with a beginner the first thing he did was ask if he minded if he got his shoes so he could climb with him lol. Magnus had to realize the jig was up by that point.
@@Nightwishmaster and by doing so, the coach still gave him the opportunity to remain undetected, even though he probably already knew about it.
@@ParaAkula Yep! Awesome instructor, I'd love to take classes with him. I'm so glad I found this video, I grew up climbing a bit outdoors but I haven't done it as an adult (well aside from bouldering at the park) but I've never been in a climbing gym, I've only climbed standard walls at Amusement Park type places. I looked up my local one and it's less than 20 minutes away, I'm going by one day this week to rent some shoes and try some patterns and stuff out! If it seems like my thing (spoiler alert, I already know it's my thing lol) I'll be getting a membership I'm freaking stoked to go! I was getting ready to sign up for a gym membership again (I have limited equipment and weights at home) but this seems like a far, far more fun way to stay in shape!
@@Nightwishmaster He realized that he wasn't coaching a beginner right around the time he explained what a "flash" is in climbing.
He says, "if this is your first time climbing."
@@cuylshepherdton7437 Actually, after going back and watching it again knowing exactly what is going to happen there are a bunch of other points as well where Magnus gives it away a bit that I didn't really pay attention to the first time, including a few random times his accent totally slips (like around the 14:00 mark it sounds just like him as if he forgot then the next time he speaks it's like he remembers to do the accent again) or he moves in ways only a climber would naturally move. You're right, somehow I didn't catch that the first time!
As soon as he starts the V5 it definitely confirms it but I didn't realize until I went back and watched it closer the second time how many times he makes it obvious early in the video too lol. Though I wouldn't be surprised if the guy caught on pretty early but played it cool, it's exactly what I would do if I were him and I figured it out, I wouldn't say a word unless he confirmed it at the end. He seems like a really good sport about it either way, bet he's a cool dude.
The kid helping him is amazing. I wish all ‘noobs’ had an instructor with the patience, understanding, and enthusiasm he had for a client who really was kinda doing his own thing the entire time. Kudos to this kid! He deserves a HUGE raise cause he just gave this facility the most incredible free advertising of the kind of business they’re running there.
I know you don't mean it in a wrong way but calling a mature person a kid is little arrogant. I'm 28 (yes, you're probably older) but even if I talk to a 20yo I don't call him a kid.
@@randomdamian you really getting pressed over labels that are harmless? Who hurt your ego? 😂
@damian
you prob took it the wrong way he's not being arrogant . I can't find the fitting word right now but he's kinda like a proud dad seeing his kid doing good
@@randomdamian 20 year olds are definitely still kiddos
RIGHT! Like thats the kind of person you want to invest in and keep in your business. Like if i saw people like this in my business, id want to put keys and opportunities in their hands.
Wow!! That instructor deserves a raise. Before and after he had his suspicions. He was kind, encouraging and super knowledgeable. He wasn’t just saying “ do this “ but was very detailed about each movement! 🎉🎉
We need to give this coach a platform and people to push him to the top of the industry. The passion for this he has ooze's from him. People like this rarely exist in the world anymore. We need to protect this kid.
well said
"push him to the top of the industry" or "protect this kid"... pick one
@@dango9786stfu ur not funny
@@dango9786 the sad truth
He wouldn't teach at the top of the industry. He would have to organize other teachers, and who knows if he'd be good at that or even like it. Seems like he's perfect where he is, even though he probably has earned a raise.
Really loved how the prank was not ridiculous but more like a serious, listening, gifted student. This coach is the absolute best!
You're absolutely right. It was respectful, funny, but also educational!
The instructor takes pride in his field.
Yea like anyone that coaches climbing does not know who magnus is. I know him and i dont give a rats ass about climbing. Lol
I know this was advertised as a "prank" video, but this is the best introduction to climbing video I have ever seen. Kudos to Triston for being awesome. He can coach me any day.
I think this could be the best way to make new people intrested in climbing. I would never click on a video if the title was "Introduction to climbing". I came here to see a prank, but I got interested in climbing.
@@SimonRosen- thus why this video is going viral 😂.
Seriously!!
God sent his one and only son to die for you cus he loved you so much. Stop sinning and praise him to show that you love him back, then you'll get to Heaven.

“Don’t let the numbers get in your way”. I LOVE this instructor! He’s so encouraging.
I've never expressed an interest in climbing in my whole life, but Triston made it look accessible without making it look easy. Dude had such a fantastic energy, was super knowledgeable, and didn't get agitated when an "amateur" was beating his climbs with little to no effort.
Really like that guy, felt like he tied the whole video together.
Idk, he was nice but super reserved with praise. If I had ever had a squash student nearly as talented as "Björn" already looked halfway into the video, I would've been "dude you should know that you're a natural and I've never seen anyone this good right off the bat" instead of "nice. Yeah I guess most people progress somewhat slower than you" lmao
@@jkommah 🫂I hope your life gets better bruh.
@@jkommah He did give a lot of praise though, like when he explained what a "flash" was, just his demeanor is rather relaxed when he talks about it, which isn't a bad thing. Doesn't have to be overly energetic to give good praise, I think he did well
@@jkommah i think he was already suspicious of what was going on by the time Magnus was just flashing things that an absolute beginner should have no business even climbing haha
@@musicplaylists59 right after he flashed the v5 at 15:17 he said "IF this is your first time climbing". I think that's about when he got sus.
The coach is so great. He was put in a position where he could have embarrassed himself but he was patient, supportive, good at explaining, and recognized talent when he saw it. Not that I could ever climb but I learned things from him during this video.

This guy is an excellent teacher. The best teachers are unphased by whatever their students throw at them, and can smoothly scale up the level of their instruction to both provide positive feedback on accomplishments and identify areas for potential improvement. I am so impressed with him. What an exceptional coach.
My toughts exactly!
The instructor was fantastic. As someone who has been a trainer (not climbing), I can tell you this is the type of person you want as an instructor. He was very patient, and good at making the person feel confortable exploring their limits. Fantastic job and great video!!!
It’s incredible how accurately he mimics beginner bouldering moves/mistakes
on his first climb he realised he wasnt struggling enough and started breathing really loud lmao
didnt know that you climbed, though when will come a climbing assist helicopter video?
Shoulda said that his forearms were super sore after 3-4 routes. LOL.
Crazy how people I watch have lives outside of what I see. Love your content man.
and sometimes doing perfect dinos
I am actually amazed how good and friendly of a climbing coach he got. He explains everything very well and keeps the motivation goin!
and super humble! imagine seeing someone flashing your grade on their "first time climbing" ahahah Not once did he stop him from going up the grades :D
This coach deserves all the love man.
yaah! even just explaining to not let numbers define your expierience in climbing (both ways) was so wholesome :D especially good for a beginner to hear
"Don't feel like a number defines you as a climber" SO much love for these words! Such important advice. Triston seems like an amazing coach :>
It's great advice, but it's damn hard to actually follow lol who doesn't measure themselves as climbers by the grade they climb?
I'm no climber and haven't ever watched climbing videos but this was amazing to watch. I'm a huge fan of someone with experience going and being "taught" their passion by someone who also has the passion and the respect they gain from each other. Its always amazing watching someone meet a hero of theirs 😊
omg are there more videos like this??? that sounds so fun to watch
I love how magnus just crumples the second he hits the ground and Tristan is always just “great job!”
The way he falls is hilarious
I came looking for this comment. I lost it on the first fall
The details of the acting for V0-V4 were quite impressive. The T-rex arms and straight legs, the re-gripping and re-stepping. Not using the toe and not looking at feet. The alternating not breathing with breathing really hard. And of course, the over-the-top dramatic falls. Oscar-worthy!
No way a climbing instructor could tell this guy is a climber 😅
you have to know the rules perfectly to know how to break them
It can be really hard to do something badly you have practiced so much to do well.
Even knowing he was faking it looked very convincing.
I thought the most impressive part was the LESS dramatic falls. It's just the attention to detail. They weren't BAD falls, but they were awkward beginner falls where you might end up on your face or laying on your back instead of just landing to your feet and butt and staying upright
He also stepped on other colors
Damn, this coach is dedicated. No flaunting, showing off, powertripping. Just pure class. 10/10
I think the guy obviously sussed it out pretty fast, but if he hadn't it'd be so insane seeing this ABSURDLY strong dude basically campus his entire way up the walls while kicking his legs around like a dizzy toddler 😂
The coach was frickin amazing.. he was super concise and articulate.. all the while being supportive and giving great feed back and he never put any negativity in his head.

That coach is so amazing, so humble, nice instructional style, all about the fun. What a great guy and way to get new people into climbing
Triston is so pure. His humble no ego approach is what the world needs more of. The moment he wanted to climb together was so awesome.
Top notch video, not only was it funny to watch him slowly realize this is NOT a beginner, but it shows beginners a bit of what they should expect. Tristan is great. That's the kind of person I'd want as a coach. His approach naturally makes trying something new seem less intimidating. He offers good advice, encouragement, and makes sure people feel like it's ok to test their boundaries at their own pace. I'm sure seeing this has made people a little more comfortable with the idea of going and giving this a try. I hope they gave him a raise :)
Would be awesome to see a part 2 where you do a coaching session with Triston giving him advice on how to improve his game!
That's genius! And the coach does 100% deserve it!
This would be awesome. I coached for a local gym when i was in highschool, i could happily do a V5 as a warmup at the time.. I learned a few things from Triston in this video, as crazy as that might be. He's a great coach, and seems to be a stand up guy.
This would be awesome
That’s exactly what I commented. Coach was great and I’d love to see them climb together
replying so this stays up. It's a needed video.
GIVE THIS COACH A RAISE! He deserves it, not everyone can thoroughly explain things while keeping a high level of enthusiasm like he does. Can tell he's a genuine, kind hearted person all around with great knowledge! Great job coach & fantastic acting Magnus 😁

Bravo!
The highlights I saw was his sick stuntman drops 🤣
The teacher is amazing and clearly knows how to make someone comfortable with learning. We need more ppl like him to be teachers. Also the framing at 11:47 is comedic genius, straight out of a cartoon.
I think this is the best climbing ambassador video ever made. It’s fun, the coach is excellent, the positivity through the roof. Magnus accidentally found the perfect video idea, the perfect coach, on the perfect day to promote the culture and satisfaction of climbing. Well done lads! Tristan definitely deserves another video with Magnus for his contribution.
Agreed! Queue up a sequel with Magnus! Maybe Magnus can help Tristan level up on his projects in return!
Yeah, It looks interesting. I'm 6'4 ans slim and I always liked hopping fences and watched parkour videos, but this looks more like something I could try.
My only critique is that he makes it look so easy that sometimes it feels not like something special. I never climbed in my life and am 100% I would struggle hard even on V0 but he made V4 and V5 so easy, that it feels like climbing is super easy
Part two will be them taking on half dome.
do like a reverse coach

The fall at 10:20 was amazing, re-watched many times laughing at loud. Tremendous acting as a newby!
I rarely actually laugh out loud, but when you swung backwards off that overhang and face planted on the mat, I absolutely lost it. That was awesome.
Yes, that was beautifully executed.
Favorite part of the video, easily, and the fact he fell down every chance he could killed me
yeah that was CLASSIC
me too. I’m at the airport at the person next to me looked at me when I laughed
“Good fall” 😂😂
I dont climb, nor do I watch climbing videos. This randomly came up on TH-cam and I am thoroughly impressed by both of these guys. Fantastic and knowledgeable coach and great acting from the pro. If I were in the area I'd pay for Tristan to teach me the ropes after watching this. Both seem very humble, real, and down to earth. I wish there were more videos like this
same here, I also love when Mangus said he had 13k followers and told the coach he was going to be famous. The coach is like great thanks, not knowing he was really going to get 3 million plus views.

I'm a soccer/football coach, and this guy is amazing at his job. Clear explanations, patient, encouraging. The falls were hilarious haha
True but he didnt need much patience since his student surpassed him in an hour 😂
This coach's attitude, charisma, and clear positive instruction are top rate. Definitely found his calling.
The absolute best coaches are the ones who care about YOUR success. At no point did this guy go "let me show you something"... love how humble this dude was. Hope he got some good techniques watching Magnus
Sometimes you will need that "let me show you something"
I'm back watching this video a year later and hoping I'm every bit as humble as I was a year ago... and the truth is I've probably gained 50lbs of climbing weight and I'm even MORE moved by the humble positive support of this coach. 100% please find a humble person to coach you in ANYTHING you do... climbing, running, executive leadership, whatever... humble are the people you can trust
I'm a private teacher (music) and I can see on that teacher that he is EXCELLENT. You see the tension in his face, absolute focus on the student, that constant wish of "I wish he does well, I want him to do well", which is actual mental effort good teachers find themselves in, even though it doesn't really do anything. I recognize on him everything I go through watching students :)
im so glad all the comments are about the teacher and really positive, im an instructor for high ropes and body boarding on a wave machine and hope this guy sees the praise hes getting for his great work!!!!
I love how tristian was eager to watch him climb the purple route after he failed because that just shows he’s willing to learn from anybody. That just shows that he’s a very good climber believing that he can learn from anyone
So impressed by the coach. Whatever he does in his life, it should involve teaching. It's a gift and he has it in spades. His demeanor, encouragement, lack of ego and generosity of spirit were so touching to watch.
Is there any chance we can get a reverse coaching for triston as a follow up video? you definitely have the tools to take him up to the next level, he really seems like a great guy with a huge passion for his sport.
That would be dope
Great idea!
Genius ide
Yes.
He’d be too nice of a guy to lie imo
He's a great teacher. Loved the fact he got pumped to climb with you as he saw you getting better and better with your technique.
yes
Not a climber, but that was a real treat. Couple of decent human beings. Thank goodness there are still people like this left in the world.
@loiny zen yeah. Total legend.
Just decent?!
Most of us (climber) are like that the competition spirit isn’t something really present
Yeah I'm not a climber and I also thought this watching the video it's nice too see isn't it
@@fatmandoo lol, most decent:)
This coach deserves a raise. As a person that has never climbed before he would make me feel so at ease and comfortable with what i'm doing.
Tristan was incredible! A truly
great advocate of the sport!
He really was. I love how genuinely stoked he was about how much Magnus was killing it. No ego at all
Couldn’t agree more! Great job Tristan
So pedagogical as well. Would love to see a TH-cam channel of him just explaining the basics of bouldering/climbing.
Gotta admit it.. If I was paying good $$$ for coaching this is exactly what I'd want to receive from a professional. He's actually a very thorough and concise coach that seems passionate about his work and his students progress and safety. Awesome video.
Still, surprised the "Beginner" isn't harmessed.
That’s because this is bouldering not rock climbing.
@@hellacoorinna9995 LMAO NOT ROCK climbing
@@jazminrubio5685 idk if that's the reason 😂
Alot of the Coaches I've met in the rock gyms have been great like this dude. Climbing gyms have a cool community.
Watching magnus slowly speed up on each climb was hilarious. I was waiting to see if the coach would say anything but I think it speaks more to his character that he didn’t. This video was genuinely hilarious and props to the coach for being such a down to earth guy
Tristan is a legend! What an amazingly humble and unassuming guy. He deserves another episode with you!
Definitely!!
Bro he knew it was magnus
@@zarrowthehorse I think he started to be suspicious halfway through
Honestly, I'd love to see another video with Triston! He was so positive and humble, and seemed like a really fun, great dude to climb with!
A duo climb video would be awesome!
Exactly. Would love to see Triston more and more
would have been nice if he got him to do the routes as well show how hard/easy it really is, is really tough to gauge off guys like Magnus... need a normal human for control
This was hilarious. Tristan seems like a genuinely good guy, it would be fun seeing you have a regular climbing session with him at some point.
Hell yea. He seemed like such a solid guy. Patient, kind, encouraging, knowledgeable. Seeing Magnus climb with and coach him, even helping him finish the climb(v7) that he wanted to do would be awesome.
right, with roles inverted!
Yes!
That would be a nice follow upp
I think that's what Tristan was hoping for when he rushed to grab them shoes :D
That instructor was fantastic. He is one of those who makes you come back even if you don’t get it or even like it. He would encourage you no matter how bad you are. A+!!
This is like the forth time I've come back to watch this video. This coach is so awesome, the most amazing thing is that he seemingly had no ego, he was just happy you were progressing. I'm sure a lot of people in general would get insecure and gatekeepy about something they're so passionate about, but he was always positive and always encouraging.
I find that with individual sports, such as climbing and skateboarding, that for the most part your 'competitors' are really hyped when you do well. It doesn't matter if you are better or worse than them, your peers will support your efforts, cheer your successes, give you pointers to improve, and are there for you. Even though these sports may be 'individual', your are a part of the community, and the wins are shared by all!! : )
the no ego thing is 10000000% why i love this coach. Not often u find that sort of quality.
Get a life
Im very new to climbing and the other people in the gym are always super helpful and excited when I finally beat my goal.
This coach is AWESOME…..!😬👍
Magnus did an AMAZING job of increasing the amount of skill he showed very gradually, so it was way more convincing that he was rapidly improving
22:29 though, the jig was up. haha
I think subconsciously even in his very first v0 climb there are details that show he is no beginner at all.
Yeah, he already knows you’re only supposed to use one color, an absolute beginner would just grab anything no mater what color it has…
@@Keneo1 No, not that. You can tell from how precisely and quickly he grabs holds and then he angles fluidly around them with zero apparent effort. A beginner would look rigid and struggling with holds.
@@Keneo1the instructor says it in the intro at 2:45
I never comment on stuff but what a class act Triston is as a coach. Great advocate for climbing and the gym.
Hi Tim, while we have you do you have any favorite recipes you'd be willing to share?
I don’t usually comment but this coach really seems like the chillest most genuine dude ever and I hope he reads all of our praise
I am in huge awe how this coach is using the language. For a foreigner which I am, there was not a single word or phrase that confused me. And this is a value worth helluva lot in terms of teaching - using understandable language. Kudos to this young man.
yet you use the word "helluva" lol

A professional can explain to professionals, an expert can explain to everyone.
The way Tristan adapted throughout, constantly providing relevant feedback during and following the climb he’d seen Magnus do. To not be phased and adapting to the progression at that pace. To not show any ounce of jealousy at being surpassed. To the way he politely checked his suspicions without accusation of the ‘learner’ just in case. This climbing gym is lucky to have such a talented, well mannered coach andI hope he is recognised for has excellent capabilities as a coach and just as a human in general. Magnus, in what I’ve seen, you are the better climber, shoot the better videos and do an awesome job, but Tristan on this evidence is the better coach!
Yes!! Such a great teacher!
I love the coach. I'd be down for a video of a climbing session with you two together. Without the disguise. He is such good positivity
He should just reverse it and coach him a session on his projects!
Agreed!
@@modahouddumbledore4114 Yes please!
10:20 that fall almost made the coach laugh 🤣😂
Most coaches anywhere would most likely have asked multiple times “are you sure you haven’t done this before” implicitly trying to call u out. But that guy just continues with his advice and keeps being supportive regardless of how high his suspicion levels are
honestly i think the AC/DC T-shirt and the mustache are wayy suspicious right from the start. I think he knew very early but had nothing to loose to play on with the prank. Great mindset by the young man.
@@ericastier1646100%, second or third climb he knew
Tbh I would take “are you sure you haven’t done this before” as a compliment because that means you’re a natural
Saying are you sure you haven’t done this before to someone that hasn’t climbed is actually quite a compliment rather than a callout
@@whiteyoshibrosit is if asked once, if asked multiple times even though they know you answered the question already is actually an insult as if you are lying to them because it is bothering them that you are that good but that guy didn’t ask once.
This has to be one of the best "undercover pro" videos I've ever seen. Magnus started to show some skill and dexterity slowly and then pulled back ASAP to keep the illusion that maybe what he did that was clean movement was accidental lmao absolutely loved this entire video.
This guy is everything a trainer should be- patient, knowledgeable, humble, kind… He excels. Good man. If ever I wanted to learn to climb, I’d be more thrilled to take lessons from him. ❤
Man the coach is so nice! Even when Magnus climbs the one he doesn’t manage to finish there’s no bad energy just support!!
Quite typical for the climbing community too. That's also part of what draws so many people to it
I mean as a casual climber, I've coached many people stronger than me. I've been coaching friends since climbing on V3s, but many of my friends are so strong with sports background that they are climbing V3/V4s on their first go - yes they can hold 40mm edges like it's nothing without training. Not the 20mm edges but 40mm edges full body weight holding fingers are more than enough to get thru V4s with technique coaching. I guided a first time climber thru a V4 that I could not do myself at the time. He had the strength, I had the knowledge. It's actually really rewarding. It made me feel like I finished the route thru him.
Obviously at some point that becomes impossible, not first timer climbs a V8. Still, you get my point.
@@slbaaron Story of mu life. I am short and heavy but love bouldering. I keep introducing new friends to the sport who immediately perform better than I do but I like to discuss projects with them and figure out stuff together :)
The way that he continued to support him even though he couldn’t finish the climbs himself🙏🏼
That showed such awesome character. Tristan is such a class individual as well as terrific coach.
As a beginner myself, this coach had incredible tips that I'm tucking into my back pocket. This was incredibly helpful! Love it! ❤
That big swing and falling flat cracked me up so much 😂 That was so well done. Coach was a really good dude too! Awesome job with this video!
So so good
I was laughging out loud and had to rewatch a couple times 😂😂
Yeah lol 10:20 I watched like 8 times
@@CritiquelHit 8? Rookie numbers
SAME omg the noise he made too
What an awesome video !! Tristan is a great coach, he explained the basics so well !! And Magnus, you played the beginner climber so incredibly well, it was amazing. The bad footwork, the heavy breathing, the hips out, the falls… fantastic job
the footwork was actually so accurate xD
