This is truly I think one of the best ideas not only for (I agree) what should be a climbing game with the guys at the gym, but these videos -- the chillest and most fun to watch climbing videos. I was disappointed when the video ended!
Something fun for a video would be trying out a game called 'a difficult game in climbing' on steam. Sheer determination and effort like real rock climbing. Maybe real world techniques like dynos and precision hands can be put to use in the game. Check it out.
@@KunalKishanMehta Seemingly random overnight, he went deaf in one ear and simultaneously got tinnitus. This damaged his vestibular system, which affects balance among other things. Doctors had no idea when he would be able to walk normally again, and also ruled out any possibility of him ever climbing again. You can see him trip a couple of times in this video, but overall he's made amazing progress, defying odds.
@@eurekaflowsdid he give any name for that stuff? I also got impaired hearing and strong tinnitus on one side from one day to the other, completely randomly. Got some exams and a diagnosis that it's still not confirmed. I think my balance is ok though
i know right? time goes by so fast. I watch old videos and i look at it.. man, this was 3 years ago, seems just like yesterday he was doing this, or that.
Magnus giving this shout out to Eric for paving the way for all the other TH-camrs is just magnificent. Makes you realize how much has happened in the last few years. And, of course, great to see that Eric is still at it.
Well done Eric! It takes a lot of bravery to show your weaknesses to thousands, if not millions, of people. Also, the fact that he is still climbing shows how passionate he is.
@@amitpotdar2102 it's 20 minutes long, only offers feeling burned out as an explanation, and doesn't at all touch upon why his balance would be affected and why he's lost so much of his fitness.
@@theKashConnoisseur , look for the one from 4 months ago "I have been gone for 2 years and I'm explaining why". Its just under 9 minutes and he explains his health issue right at the start.
@@rosspearse1928 Thanks for the info, that one does a lot more explaining. I'm still not entirely clear what caused his hearing and balance issues, but maybe he's not entirely sure, either. It definitely sounds like a ruptured eardrum, but I'm not sure if he was dealing with ear infections or if he suffered a mechanical injury or what.
18:01 👏 So grateful for Eric's courage to start a channel about climbing so many years ago. Great climbing on well chosen boulders from powerful to delicate. I'd like to see this reunion as an annual event ;)
This makes me emotional to watch! I have such repsect for Erik. I shattered my spine climbing 4 years ago and i couldnt watch anything climbing related from ptsd, but the last few days started watching magnus again. I will never climb again. Until you have experienced it, its hard to relate. Watching Erik is heartwarming along with all the love his friends show him. It's hard seeing others do things and not feel envy and sad. Sitting in a wheelchair watching others use their legs or watch other climb and not be able to do the same is hard.
Yeah that would be hard. Watching others do what you loved to do. At least you can watch climbing now. That probably fills a little of the void, i hope. Stay strong. You will find something new that you can do and will fall in love with. I bet its hard but dont get stuck on negative thoughts.
I haven't shattered my spine so I can't totally relate, but I have a degenerative condition that makes me be able to do less and less. And it's so hard to see people do stuff that you can't do anymore, the worst is when they try to be gentle and are like "yeah let me do that for you" ... :(
this is completely ridiculous. Emil and nikken are so strong and yet Magnus is still completely next level! just really shows how phenomenally strong he is!
I was just gonna say this too! its unreal watching their videos and seeing how strong they are, then comparing that to this video, then comparing this to some Magnus videos where he has a session with people that climb even harder than him
I met Erik in a gym in Stockholm. I cannot stress enough how sincere and genuinely nice that man is. He is so welcoming, and honestly the most down to earth person I've met through climbing. The fact he's even climbing after what happened is ridiculous; I'm so impressed. Watching him climb has always motivated me, but seeing him in this video has motivated me even more. I'm really glad he is able to do the kilter board etc. I would actually love to see a video on that!
@@V3loCiTy123sudden deafness in one ear along with tinnitus completely messed with his sense of balance, and doctors were unsure he would even be able to walk properly again, let alone get back on the wall.
Very cool video, which shows the best of all of them: Eric's burning passion for climbing Emil's incredible power on slopers and dynos Nikke'ns flawless technique and Magnus' beastly strength in overhangs One of the most enjoyable climbing videos of the last year.
Thanks for explaining, Magnus, that Eric was the first climbing TH-camr. I’m not a climber, and only watch climbing vids now because YT suggested your channel more than a year ago and I was hooked. It was great to hear that tribute to the person who did it first ❤
yep just keep at it Eric you've had a little vacation nothing that you could have prevented, but everyone loved you before and still do, just keep chugging you'll get it.
For those familiar with Storror, I felt like Eric is like Sacha here. He pushes and perseveres despite a condition or injury that impacts his abilities. That deserves respect.
20:48 I love how you can see magnus struggling with the slab part going around the corner, and as soon as he's around the corner its his style and he looks so natural and makes it look easy
They're back! A reunion years in the making! Also want to mention, I really love those side shots of the problems. It really shows the steepness and quality of the holds, which is usually hard to see when you're viewing the wall face on.
Eric holds and projects all the values I attribute to climbing, you can say he's the type of climber that surpasses the physical performance with his integrity. He's exactly the type of climber I aspire to be, but also also the person I hope to become. Thank you Eric for everything, you are the absolute best!
Hearing Erik talk about his medical situation and being vulnerable in front of so many people, made me teary. Seing him pushing hard after made me cry. Thanks for everything, all your effort, content and hard work. Its a blessing to have amazing content creators in this sport. Wish you the best
Magnus is such a good guy - giving Eric the credit for starting climbing youtube (he deserves so many more followers) and also making sure Eric wasn't embarrassed about his balance by explaining what's going on to his followers.
It is crazy how time flies... Can't believe it's been that long! You guys all inspired me to climb and I'm proud of who I've become for adding climbing into my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
This was such a great video. I would watch you guys do this every week lol! It's like a climbing gameshow between guys having a lot of fun, can't help but smile through the whole show!!!
Also if the gym didn't have the rule about shirts having to be on Magnus could have sent that 8c/9a. shirt off = automatic upgrade of power by at least one full level
Watched a couple of your vids in the past. Now finally went bouldering for the first time myself. It was so much fun. Thanks for the inspiration. Now I truely have no idea how you do it^^
Hey Magnus i really love your vids, this the collab i am living for. You have a refreshing humble demeanor. I hope you find success in other parts of your life. Looking forward to try Rungne items
I don't know how I got here. Here I am 3 days after discovering Magnus, still scared of heights, embroidering a crazy quilt bag for my knitting, and just amazed at the skill of these gentlemen. I also think Magnus moves like Spider-Man when he is climbing on the underside of a wall.
This was such a fun session man! Should become a regular climbing game, putting pressure on the homies and cheering each other on
This is truly I think one of the best ideas not only for (I agree) what should be a climbing game with the guys at the gym, but these videos -- the chillest and most fun to watch climbing videos. I was disappointed when the video ended!
You picking up Eric when he asked for a power spot was a great show of strength
Something fun for a video would be trying out a game called 'a difficult game in climbing' on steam. Sheer determination and effort like real rock climbing. Maybe real world techniques like dynos and precision hands can be put to use in the game. Check it out.
For anyone who's followed Eric's medical struggles over the last few years, you know just how impressive his performance was in this video.
Can you explain what affected his balance? I don't really follow him so don't know

Classic Collab Reunited. Can’t believe it’s been 5 plus years of watching Magnus. Here’s to another 5 years.
i know right? time goes by so fast. I watch old videos and i look at it.. man, this was 3 years ago, seems just like yesterday he was doing this, or that.
Happy anniversary

Nikken climbs so graceful and technical, truly a master in movement.

One of the most enjoyable climbing videos of the last year.
This is the most satisfying use of the word ‘beastly’ I’ve ever read ❤
Personally , this is exactly what im looking for on youtube as far as climbing vids. all the best lads together. Cant ask for more.
Thanks for explaining, Magnus, that Eric was the first climbing TH-camr. I’m not a climber, and only watch climbing vids now because YT suggested your channel more than a year ago and I was hooked. It was great to hear that tribute to the person who did it first ❤
Nice to see Eric on the wall again. He was who first introduced me to Nikkrn and Emil.
I also LOVE to see Eric out there trying hard, put yourself in more videos Eric ❤
yep just keep at it Eric you've had a little vacation nothing that you could have prevented, but everyone loved you before and still do, just keep chugging you'll get it.

The Collaboration We've All Been Waiting For...
They're back! A reunion years in the making! Also want to mention, I really love those side shots of the problems. It really shows the steepness and quality of the holds, which is usually hard to see when you're viewing the wall face on.

Wish you the best
So excited to watch this! I've been suggesting Magnus do this Collab again for ages!
Here for the best climbing videos on YT! I'm still climbing cause of you, so thanks!
Just thinking about how strong the entire Swedish crew by itself is, makes Magnus' strength so much more impressive.
Magnus is such a good guy - giving Eric the credit for starting climbing youtube (he deserves so many more followers) and also making sure Eric wasn't embarrassed about his balance by explaining what's going on to his followers.
This is the most wholesome video, it’s just friends hanging out while happening to do very difficult climbing.
Nice throwback to old style videos, love it
Little known fact: Magnus uses chalk as washing powder.
Chalk up to your armpits helps with those tricky elbow holds.
I always love group videos like this because you can really tell how amazing everyone is at different things!
Magnus has been leading us on in the last few vids with his "I dont feel so strong right now" just to look better while flashing the 8A ^^
Want to take a second to appreciate the lighting, it looks really good throughout the video
Happy to see more classic gym content! Hope you end up bringing some of those old videos back :)
Yes! Brilliant ! Great to see you all together and Eric looking good and climbing well.
Love the variation on your channel but nothing beats a good ol' bouldering video.
A video that we desperately needed. Pure. Lots of action. Lots of climbing! More of that please!!
So nice, I remember the original collab, brings back great memories to see all these guys reunited!
So happy to see Eric climbing and having fun again ! You're an inspiration to us all :)
So nice to see this collab happening again. Was really fun to watch all you guys together.
Enjoyed this so much. You’re all powerhouses in the bouldering world and it’s great watching the different styles
I wish this reunion had lasted for another hour. So fun to watch
This is the type of content we like, a bunch of dudes having fun, challenging each other and doing what they love.
The setting in this gym seems amazing
It is crazy how time flies... Can't believe it's been that long! You guys all inspired me to climb and I'm proud of who I've become for adding climbing into my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I'm so glad to see so different video in this time! Thank you for this Magnus, Eric, Emil, Nick!
This is such a great crossover episode. Just fun climbing with good people. Instant classic, perfect sequel.
Omg it’s been five years already?! I miss this collab so much. Please do more collab together
Love this simple concept. More of this please
I know some of the other videos get more views but i really love these just pure climbing. I would love to see some outdoor climbing too.
Super nice video! From the amazing collab to the relaxing music, real pleasure to watch!
I hope this brings more love to Eric’s TH-cam channel. I’ve been watching Eric’s and Magnus’ channels for years. Just awesome stuff guys
I think those collab videos back then were some of the first videos I watched. Really cool video idea, love it.
Simple climbing and just an awesome Video. So nice to see you climb together, especially with Eric
First creator in years that I get genuinely giddy to see an upload, great content as always!!!
Hell yes more Climbing content is always welcomed. And it looks like these are the ones Magnus enjoys the most, they just having fun
Glad to see climbing content on main again
I love the way this gym is organized! Lots of fun stuff. Also, you guys tried some nearly comp level boulders, was very exciting to watch.
best channel content in a minute. please do more videos like this.
Soooo happy see Eric back epic climbing so strong 💪
It really Shows how strong Magnus is. Doing These moves so much more Controlled than These already crazy crushers do
Anyone else mindblown at just how incredible the production quality is on this? Really amazing Magnus!
Love to see you guys chilling and climbing hard boulders. Loved the video!
the chill music is such a chefs kiss just chilling and watching ur video
Nikken's footwork = chef's kiss
If only all hobby communities had this positive vibe. Awesome video guys
Nice to see another collab✊🔥
So fun to see you all back together again!
I really loved to see you bouldering again. Awesome collab!
Phenomenal video happy to see climbing back on the main
Love the colab with this crew! More more more!
Im not really into climbing myself, but i always enjoy watching your video! Keep up the great work
Nice collaboration team! I loved some of that tight precise footwork. I should work on slab more for sure.
Epic collab!! Loved it, great to see Eric in the mix as well! It's fun to see these absolute monsters compared to a more realistic climber
Love seeing you guys climb together again
I love those "closed gym" videos, Magnus!
This is my favorite video in a long time, really cool spirit from everyone, really cool climbing.
Love it !
Feels like the old vlog days with this video, love it!
Went and watched your Sport Climbing Challenge - did not disappoint! Wish you all the best
Proper session! Love seeing you having fun in the colab
Nothing but love for this combo
Hey Magnus i really love your vids, this the collab i am living for.
You have a refreshing humble demeanor. I hope you find success in other parts of your life.
Looking forward to try Rungne items
That toe hook on the arete really opened my eyes. Thx!
I don't know how I got here. Here I am 3 days after discovering Magnus, still scared of heights, embroidering a crazy quilt bag for my knitting, and just amazed at the skill of these gentlemen.
I also think Magnus moves like Spider-Man when he is climbing on the underside of a wall.
This video was the best! Loved every minute. Awesome content, great guys, just classic bouldering. :)
I rooted for Eric all the time! Good job everyone, very nice video!
You should do a drill challenge like that - random boulder + (one arm, one feet, campusing etc)
Easily one of the best videos of 2024. Such an amazing atmosphere
I loved the little "Allez Magnus" on french on the 7c . Love from France
magnus video dropped on lunch break bless
These guys are awesome. Fantastic climbing.
Great video
Classic feel good vibes with this group!
❤Really love those kind of collaboration.
Nice video guyz!
Love bouldering content!
damn that got emotional im tearing a lil. much love to this group
Thank you @Magnus, watching this at the gym right now!
that is high quality content what i'm looking for. great video guys.
what a great group to have come together
Just love the chill humour and great climbing 👌
