This Arch in Mallorca is massive, I've been there, the video doesn't do justice. You can't understand how high that is!! A fall on the top part can be deadly or really hurt you. Truly astonishing climb, only a true legend like Chris could accomplish this. Greetings from Barcelona!
yeah, the arch is really intimidating. Over ten years ago I visitied the place (I was watching King Lines like every other day back then :-D) and I swam over and just got to the right base of the arch. Even calmer waters day it took me a lot of courage, there is a crazy underwater-rockworld there. Super impressive and beautiful place, but totally rad to climb this hard and this high without a rope :-D
search jyoti raj he is considered as one of the best solo climber in world and in my opinion he is 👍......he have climbed waterfall which is 800 meter high with water falling on top of him most of the time see any of his video its jaw-dropping
@@clashroyalgameplay2077 Raj isn’t doing anything close to Sharma’s Deep Water Soloing in terms of technical difficulty. Then you have Honnold soloing El Cap. Raj deserves respect but his climbs are more flair than technical. To place him best on anything is a stretch or ill informed
@@brianthrom6858 he is poor guy he dont even have a good camera to capture his accent to jog fall...... 800 meter high you will find a 2min s clip on TH-cam......he solo climbed 800 meter rock wall chris got water down below him but not jyoti if he fall he die if he had money thier will be more opportunities have you seen his clip climbing jog fall without rope on slippery rocks that is thing chris will do with ropes ......and honnold is best climber in world i have seen all his documentarys but no documentation have been done jyoti raj climbing the jog fall instead of some shitty 2mins clip capturing him 500 meters .....i am sure you just seen him climbing walls or rock in fort nothing else he have climbed free solo jog fall with 11 different routes and set the world record
I used to work for this guy's dad. The way he used to talk about his son to us (who knew nothing about climbing) you could tell he was so proud and stoked for his son.

After seeing the first attempt, I was sure I'd leave a comment how impressed I am. But eventually, having watched the whole video left me speachless. It's one of these few things you see in life that you literally do not find proper words to describe and express emotions.
yea maybe second place to Alex free solo of El cap 3000ft climbing for hours under documentary pressure .Zero room for error. Easier level of course but still crazy
@@jaytitan3902 There's really not much comparison between Freerider and this to be honest, this route is wayyyyy harder, like 8 grades higher. Alex's solo of Freerider is one of the most ballsy climbs of all time but a 5.13a big wall trad route is an entirely different beast than a 5.15a deep water solo sport route. He's never climbed 5.15 but he has said it's still a goal of his and I'm sure if he decides to train hard for it and put all the other stuff he does on pause long enough he'll probably be able to do it at some point, he's sent 5.14d so he's almost there.
Not just an amazing athlete, but he remembered each and every movement perfectly. Climbers like this are geniuses imo. Imagine being the first one to CREATE that pathway!!

@@GardenGuy1943 He didn't give it a grade, potentially because of it being a deep water solo and that provides its own complexities that might make it difficult to grade. Given the level he was climbing at at this time, how long it took him, and what he has said about the route, people have estimated it at 9a. Which would not make it one of his easier climbs by any means, but not his hardest.
@@peterneumann7145 Well I would imagine if anything it would seem harder then it actually is. The fact that he's going to fall 50 feet and it's definitely going to hurt must have some psychological effect. Also, and probably more importantly, it's harder to get attempts, and you can't hang in your harness and try the moves, so it's hard to project. These factors make it different from other sport routes so grading it might be difficult.
What we're all unconsciously fascinated by is the fact, you have no escape, no way out, and have no choice but dealing with and pushing through such a situation. And that is Courage.
I watch a free solo video every morning to remind myself of the greatness of the human being, how amazing things can be accomplished if we prepare relentlessly, live fearlessly and focus minutely on our goals. This stuff is just so unbelievable to me, makes me know that what ever achievements that I’m striving for in life, I can accomplish them, because their degree of difficulty and danger is no where near what these amazing people do. They are some of the greatest among us in unlocking the potential of the human mind.
Like many others, this climb inspired me in the very beginning of my climbing life. And it still does to this day. More so even. So happy you decided to remaster.
This is something else. A short climb, but super difficult. This was the first 9a+ ever! Wikipedia: "It features a 7 feet (2.1 m) dyno that took Sharma over 50 attempts to stick." Wow, hats off, Sharma! Edit (9 months later): if you think about it, 50 attempts are not that much. At that time, any other human, including the greatest professional climbers of all time, would need a lot more attempts. Provided they wouldn't didn't give up! Truly amazing.
Hello guys ,I don’t know if this counts but I left my keys in the house and managed to make my way up the drain pipe and on through the window,filled with pride I made my descent down the stairs…just simply an awesome climb 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Defying gravity. Watching him from the bedroom is one thing. Being in that condition is quite another. Many salutes for the resolution and perseverance.
That was super human! Spell binding and Incredible display of years of disciplined conditioning. Amazing what any of us can achieve when we harness our minds, focus and sense of discipline! Inspiring🤙
@@gautamdeusa Think of it like this - his muscles burst with explosive potential energy.. you feel like you can do anything. It feels like adrenaline to normal people, but he gets that in addition.
Love how he's celebrating getting a good grab with one hand after struggling to just stay on is amazing. He knows hes in control, just holding with one hand. The Endurance and power to weight ratio you have to have, maintaining a consistent contraction must be hell, Lactic acid just burning. Can see how amazing the skill to rest each Limb enough to go again.
To see someone with such a dedication and a determined mind to climb this it really is inspiring and beautiful. You do not see that very often these days.
I began climbing in 2007 right when the footage of this came out and I didn't appreciate it enough at the time. There may not exist a more perfect route on the planet.
i think nowadays nobody really bothers to seek the king line in the same way anymore - because they know no line will every match this one right here...
@@nhovyjann Lol, it's a completely different style of climbing, shouldn't really even be compared to bouldering. I like Alex Honnell but free soloing isn't bouldering, he'd have trouble with a more aggressive route like this, he's an endurance climber.
I've said before, I climbed Jack's Rake on Pavey Ark in the Lakes about 10 year ago, I felt like I had conquered K2! What these guys do is just phenomenal.
I know I'm supposed to enjoy the subtleties more, but I just keep thinking about that dyno. (2:55) Perhaps the stakes weren't as high as Osman's, but the technique was damn near FLAWLESS! He got a lot of swing on that landing, but nailed the grip so thoroughly that it didn't even seem to phase him. Legend! 🤩
I met him at a bouldering competition when I was younger, probably like 2000ish. He won overall, of course. I placed 4th in my age group so that was cool
everything is perfect here, the atmosphere created by the sound of the wild water crashing, the roar in that wild dyno and graceful movement of Sharma, no words, great camera work, beautiful location
Balls of steel would only weigh him down, and if he falls he would sink like Titanic. His balls are massive air balloons so he can easily go upwards, even in case of falling 👍
@@SalmonPenny ...no I did mean moving , physically. But I totally missed the joke. Haha, but I appreciate it now! Thanks for piping in. Have a good one, stranger friend 😁❤️
The average person probably thinks Mt Everest is the most impressive feat in climbing and have no idea who Chris is- but this is far and away one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen
I'm an average rock climber. Sometimes non-climbers ask me "what mountains have you climbed?" I guess expecting some big mountain they have heard of. I'll reply "Manure Pile Buttress" and that pretty much ends the conversation.
Wow man…that was so impressive and spectacular to see. Thank you so much for putting this up. I think I saw a poster of this at a rock climbing gym and so I knew this would be an awesome video.
Rock climbing is fascinating. At first I was mainly interested in the Guys doing the crazy scary solo climbs, but this is also interesting - the technicality of it, the fact that there's basically a science to it as much as strength and fitness. Awesome
I remember going to theaters to watch this when it came out and being blown away, and am still blown away. Definitely my all time favorite climbing clip, thank you for releasing this!
As a "weightlifter" i cant quite comprehend his strenght. It really amazes me how he "relaxes" a moment while having 3 point contact with 2 legs and one arm holding with his damn fingers in an arch like that at 2:48
Another climbing move for resting is called a knee bar, which might be a little crazier than this, Adam Ondra is a good example, he hangs from one leg to rest his hands which is pretty awesome
Great job! I thought I know this place, then I realized that it is Mallorca, South East cost. We stayed at the Ibera Star Cala Barca. That is very close from this place. There is a beautiful natural park...anyways, you did it!

This is dope. Such a personal goal. I completely vibe with his determination.
Incredible. Never ceases to amaze what a well trained well focused human can achieve.
Rock climbing is fascinating. At first I was mainly interested in the Guys doing the crazy scary solo climbs, but this is also interesting - the technicality of it, the fact that there's basically a science to it as much as strength and fitness. Awesome

Yeah looks great ,
But I still prefere free solo el cap.
That's pretty cool but I'm more impressed by the camera man and his teleportation abilities.
Amazing, I found myself holding my breath willing him not to fall. Great job
It's actually Es Pontàs, with accent on the a! Always nice to see this man climbing!
The shot at 6:16 gave me vertigo. Even if I were anywhere near as good as him, I still wouldn't have the balls to get that high without a rope.
i can say you didnt watch movie ,,Free solo,, 🤣
No words to describe strength, skill of ghis man!
Chris Sharma i salute u you are real hero ,real brave climber , God bless u ❤
Rip Miquel Riera, father of psicobloc.
This piece is dedicated to Miquel, who shared his love for psicobloc in Mallorca and showed Chris the arch.
The change in his voice is hilarious 1:29 😂
From a manly feat of strength to a little girl falling into her death.
I can’t fathom how you cling on after such a leap. Exceptional strength and ability.
props to the cameraman who had to float there the whole time
As a "weightlifter" i cant quite comprehend his strenght. It really amazes me how he "relaxes" a moment while having 3 point contact with 2 legs and one arm holding with his damn fingers in an arch like that at 2:48
Another climbing move for resting is called a knee bar, which might be a little crazier than this, Adam Ondra is a good example, he hangs from one leg to rest his hands which is pretty awesome
It really depends on a type of hold there. At some point in climbing you trust your grip enough to relax in quite weird positions
Climbing is next level strength, you need to optimise when you rest
So sick,balls of steel
I'm totally amazed. Seams extraordinarily dangerous. Can't imagine his determination and the strength of his hands and fingers. Just awesome.
I've been able to mow my yard in 38 min while driving my mower backward. Never been done before. The Earth is a better place because of Chris and me.
Immeasurable amounts of strength, stamina, perseverance and skill.

I was not expecting the yelling but I understood it immediately. Pretty cool imo
This man was dealt quite a good hand … and he has played it well. I met him once(said hi) and he seemed really humble and cool.
The sequence of moves from 3:50 is beautiful. Sick route and sick climb!
Brooo, the way he clung onto the rock to exit the water was crazy
This is not crazy. See Alex Honnold.
I mean when he exited the water. You know how difficult it is to do that with tide 💀
