David Lama is best known for being able to scale the world's toughest alpine climbing routes, while Dani Arnold is famous for his speed. The two young alpinists recently teamed up for an expedition to Alaska and were able to realize a spectacular first ascent right away.
With their new route "Bird of Prey" Lama and Arnold managed to pull off the first line through the central headwall of the 1500-metre (4500 ft.) east face of Moose's Tooth.
The duo finished the demanding climb in remarkable speed, making it back to base camp within 48 hours.

RIP David Lama 💐
One of the best videos I've seen to really put you there on the mountain...coming from an avid armchair mountaineer.
See the instructions of how to turn on subtitles, turn on subtitles. Realise the guy speaks German, turn off subtitles. Realise he speaks incomprehensible Austrian German, turn subtitles back on :D
***** Far from it.
actually he speaks the east tyrolian-carinthian accent of the city of lienz.
It's Bavarian. And his precise dialect is a mixture of Tyrolian and Carinthian, spoken around Lienz. And the other guy speaks an Alemannic dialect of Switzerland.
Always amazed when watching this guy climb. Extremely tough ascent, but as always, amazing to view down from a summit point. Well done to the summit team.
great translations on the captions redbull!
That is indeed one of the most dangerous mixed routes there is! Congrats David and crew!
I had a love of climbing, still do, tomaz humar was one of my idols in the 90's. you're climbing like I wish I could. Cheers
The exposure is just insane at 3:37, I'd shit my pants
David Lama = badass
R.I.P. David, you were one of the best!
I one time climbed a really small tree.
+Dillon Cash DUUUUUDE THATS BIZZARE
Awesome! The feeling of accomplishment they must feel once reaching the summit!
They are playing extreme hardball. 5.10 without removing their crampons, minimal rack, most of which was likely sacraficed during the descent. Admire this type from a distance. I am a veteran El Cap soloist, and I would not go near this type of speed-dependant mixed climbing. The danger level is off the Richter Scale. But, my bet is that Lama will still be alive and kicking 40 years from now. His skillset is huge. But that's what I thought about my friend Dean Potter, who is now a big splat on a gully wall opposite El Cap.Shit does indeed happen.
G. Fisher I love your comments. I just wish I could climb that grade
Wow Which routes have you solo’d on El cap ?
Sadly it appears that you just lost that bet :(
He didn't make it 4 years past your bet but RIP David, Hansjorg and Jess.The fact that 3 of them perished together is scary, none of them fully considered the risks or thought about potential avalanche. RIP to your splattered friend Dean as well.
@@gregdeegan1473 ,
Nope, I was wrong. Reason I quit climbing. The body count was getting too high just within my inner circle.
Great video. Amazing climbers. Nice line.
Didn’t understand anything but loved the video. This guy is a savage.
Lieber David, Du hast den Menschen durch Deine Persönlichkeit und Taten so viel gegeben. Rest in Peace.
Ruhe in Frieden
Just a couple of total badasses. That line was STEEP
On a literal vertical wall
Guy: it is getting pretty steep
I just went to the same store yesterday IN ACHORAGE ALASKA
FRED MEYER
Seems like that Fred Meyer is the first stop for about everyone off the plane haha the last frontier
These guys are living
one epic climb!
Nice job
David eres un maquina
Awesome
And then, suddenly 3:14 !
Never mind the climb, awesome video ;-)
Very nice climbers !!
Cool video - thanks. They seemed really depressed though. I'd be super happy If I got up there and still was alive :)
I know what you mean by looking depressed. They're focused and calm, respectful of the mountain, they could die anytime. That's the right attitude you need if you want to live long in those places. No need to get hyper stoked for the camera, it's not that exciting, it's the whole process, a work of art.
Insane
RESPECT TO THE LATE DAVID THE GREAT
Respect
lama is boss man
Perfecto muy bueno
I feel like I'm the only one scared of heights!
Lmao! 3:04 "fuck"
David Lama - Austria - best
climbing stairs is all i can do.
sajda hamad hahahahahhaha you just made my day
How do they secure themselves so well into the wall? Do they hammer in those anchors? How do they hold up 200+ pounds when they fall or repel down?
Rest in power hero.
Wow!!!
How does it work with the ropes and harnesses? How do they fix them etc?
couldn't understand a word anybody said but the video was fucking epic
RIP brother
Crazy cool but I will stay in NEW YORK CITY we shut down for that kind of whether but fun to watch.
im in NY too lol, i cant find an ice climbing place here tho
IcePick Airsoft I live just north of the city and the best places for ice climbing around us is proabably New Hampshire or Canada :/ im 20 just about to finish college and i plan on moving out west to Colorado near the Rockys to take my mountaineering to the next level. Cheers!
I'm only 16, can't go anywhere, but i've heard alot about ice inside of caves in colorado, I wanna do that, but best of luck to you!
Sko Bird ice climbing here is at rumny , huntingtons , alpine on cannon mountian and some on tuckermans .
2:02 To climb that steep snow wall is really suicidal
So sad. Big fan. RiP
That dude has some balls!
Thrill hunter, pushing the limits.
3:05 does he say fuck ? HAHAHA
Subtitle for Österrich :D
2:50 'Ahh *scheiiße*'
If you wanna know if someone is german just look out for that! :P
but they ain't german :p
wurøiz if someone speaks German would have been better
that sentence doesn't even make sense bro
They're Swiss and Austrian PLEASE!
What a climb..! Amazing..!
(liking the Swiss German accent better... just sounds better..!)
I knew something was different about the accent, just didn't know what it was. Thanks!
It's not an accent but an upper germanic language. If anything you could call it dialect, although that term is somewhat debatted...
R. i.p david lama
nuts
mi sueño
why are the subtitles white? makes it extremely difficult to read
Dani Arnold is Swiss and Davi Lama Austrian.
Half Austrian, half Nepalese sherpa actually. Hell of a gene set for being an alpine badass.
The CC isss too wide for the screen!
GIVE THAT MAN A MEDAL
Come again?
I understood everythong that was said.. yes.. i did....
Amazing climb. But the anchoring shown at 6:51 is frightening. It looks neither robust nor redundant, which it could be by simply attaching the ropes to the two anchors in a different manner. I've ice climbed some, but I'm no expert. So I welcome comment/critique.
No, it's quite robust and redundant (when done properly). It's an Abalakov thread, two interconnected holes drilled in proper ice and cord passed threw them. It's the most used way of abseiling long multi-pitch ice routes as it is proven to hold as much as an ice screw (or more) and cost you no gear (only the small cord). They even sent Dani as the first (heavier than Lama) with a backup (ice screw - the quickdraw you see) witch is a good practice, cause if the Abalakov behaves good with him it is OK for the second to take the backup out and descend on the Abalakov alone.
Opara Thank you for the reply. I don't doubt Mr. Lama is World class and it is I who is missing something. I've used (a single set of) ice holes with cords a couple times and can appreciate the improvement of doubling-up. But where I struggle in particular is that I don't see any redundancy or improvement offered by the cord merely passing through the biner as opposed to either being redundantly attached to it, or better still, having the biner directly attached to one or both of the ropes.
RIP
My face @ 0:10 O_O
whats the thickness and type of rope they are using for their double rope climbing?
And why are they sometimes using 6 ropes :D?
Alaska mt
pssst this is nothing, the hardest thing ive done is Climbing out of bed every morning gawd damn what a challenge.
Clicked CC for captions. It's still in Mexican.
You mean German?
You must mean Spanish, (Mexican isn't a language) just click on the little arrow and then on translate captions select desired language and Voila!! = )
yamamoto tsunetomo
No, Spanish is from Spain.Mexican IS a language.so is Chilean,Cuba,Domenican, Sure they all may derive from a Latin dialect but there are so many differences where some latins cannot understand each other.
..and yes I know it's German. Grow a sense of humor please.
***** ja ja ja or should I write ha ha ha in "American" language?
Man, I feel for the camera man...
I dont think there was one. Just Arnold and Lama.
SIGA Rissan :D
hyoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
from japan.
My Face At 6:40 :)
till 6:45
Didnt the camera man have to climb this also?
No cameraman, they did the filming themselves.
And drones. They use high tech drones in climbing
