This video series was made to show the most common mistakes climbers and (especially) belayers make. There is alway a chance that something unexpected will happen, but taking things seriously when you're dealing with someone's life (even if it's yours) may prolong it, at least for a little bit :)

Everyone:falling and almost dying
Cameraman: chillin in creative mode
LMAO
Camera man always stay alive
@@hgb8478 the found footage variant is the most weak of all the cameramans because they are just normal humans holding a camera
Ain't thats crazy tho
It's sad how little they value their life. It's makes you wonder what kind of trauma they have been through to get to that point. Sad
This video makes you realize how freaking crazy Alex Honnold's free solo of El Capitan is
Alex's been climbing 24 hours a day since he was 11. Climbing for him is like walking for us.
I don't need any video to know how fucking crazy was that shit.
I just watched that yesterday. I don’t see how he did all that while carrying those huge bowling balls between his legs.
@@junofranco6638 I think he's done free solos on sight before. He's that good. I'll stick to the wall at the gym.
😂😂Every climbing video on TH-cam has a non-climber mentioning that guy. 😂😂
falling to your death and being caught by your rope is one of the most realist things ever
you can do both
I broke my arm falling off the couch once.. Doc said I was lucky.!!!!
@@richard8031 yeah cause that’s the most action you ever got on a couch
Ha ha ha I am funny
This sentence has some of the most realist bad grammar ever.
After watching this video, my respect for Alex Honnold for his free soloing skills just grew up a thousand
Weird. My respect for him is now -1,000.
@@jakevendrotti1496 LOL, and why is that?
What about alex jones?
@@joshbrajevich7699 alex rodriguez?
@@Phewwpeww because it shows the risk he's taking when he could just use safety equipment?
1:30 probably the most honest reaction to falling I ever heard.
And most annoying
@@SmooshGoo you should try to stay silent then
I live for moments like this in my life. Until I dont.
@@ddan1998 I will, since I dont rock climb. 🙄

@@RainyWRLD. no you would. i bet you mad soft
@@versatileduplicity9313 lmao
2:34 you can't tell me that the rope didn't just suddenly apear out of nowhere
Yes I can.
Love how the scream of death becomes a happy party yell..
No I wasn't scared I was screaming like a 4 year old girl because I love this rock climbing stuff.
Exactly, he shit his pants screaming then changed it when he realized was ok
My father was a climber sometimes I watch these and remember him saying, “ don’t fall “ when I asked how are you still around after climbing like this all these years? Then he smiled and said “ be good at falling if you do “ laughed and started up like he was the one that carved that rock. I am not a rock climber but I have a lot of respect for the talent.
He has a lot of wisdom. Good fortune for you to have him as a dad.
@@tdb4763 thanks incredibly
This is just as true in Motocross, BMX, and skating. It’s HOW you fall.

0:06 I'm So Glad Those Rocks Waited Until He Was Filming Again
3:15 first ever attempt of a head wedge rest
Yeah, what the hell was that.
NOWISM when climbing, your body parts are your tools. You can use a stiff straight hand as a wedge in a crack, your back as a ballast up against a rock with outward leg pressure, and sure, your head. You do these things to escape extreme fatigue, where u literally can hang on no longer.
@@THE-APEX I climb and I would never wedge me head into a crack to avoid falling. Seems like an odd strategy to me. Knee bars, heel hooks, etc. are all legit, but head jam?? Pass.
Ты жандоса на чрк не видел
This video really makes me wanna get into rock climbing!
ditto
The adrenaline from almost falling to your death must be insane! Bet they get through the rest of the climb swiftly after that.
It’s actually a misconception that climbers are adrenaline junkies. Adrenaline is the last thing you want on a rock or ice. You want to breath easy and maintain composure, they likely rappelled down or shakily finished
Most climbers dont actually go for adrenaline nor get it from falls. Most climbers when falling are calm, not because we're soulless or of hardened mind; its just that our gear is so damn good and we trust it. Getting adrenaline can be bad, especially for this long haul climbs because it can tire you out a bit more, you will waste some of your stamina. I will admit though, first few falls lead climbing are spookier, but they lose that essence usually after 2-3.
Like the others said here, in climbing we dont want this adrenalin rush. You want to stay focused and keep your mind calm. Adrenalin could give you a small increase in power but you wouldnt focus anymore.
Many people think you have to be super strong to climb. But its not all. Actually there are three main things. First is of course physical fitness, then comes your own mind and last technique. If you cant focus in stress situations and already freak out when 5 meters above the ground, then you will never climb anything, regardless how strong you are.
4:54
if you have such friends, you no longer need enemies
yeah, I was wondering what the fuck was the belayer doing
@@shamgli7199 honestly, translation or explanation? wtf how did he fell 15 mt to the ground
anyone figure out if he dead?
@@camilocarrillo2132 I think it was trad climbing, meaning you place your own protections along the way up, so its not uncommon your temporary protections can pop off when you fall, especially if the higher one went off, which seem to have happened here sadly !
@@Super2Donny he was moving so probably not in the vid, no
And somewhere aliens are watching us, eating popcorn and laughing.

@@andrewlopez5346 bitch
I've done all sorts of extreme pursuits, but I just can't even imagine solo climbing or even extreme climbing with gear.
What is "extreme climbing"?
@@bullfrogboss8008 What is extreme technical scuba diving? Mixed gas straight down a line? 400'fsw/ffw - 800'? 1000' club? ;). What is extreme proxy wingsuiting down the mountain? Some things are truly subjective... You tell me.. Personally for me, extreme is where I go from training / studying to pushing well past what I'm comfortable with.. Again, totally subjective... I have no real idea where my fear came from heights hanging on from a thread on a wall (not one worthy of mentioning) to me being completely comfortable piloting airplanes and helicopters, or base/wingsuit "flying"... It isn't reasonable...I've always had a fear of falling.. So, I honestly applaud those who strive to go above and beyond.. Hope that clears up my thoughts on it..
Just the sheer strength in most these athletes is highly respectable , I had the same adrenaline rush in war😂
Tyfys
But the force of gravity is stronger...
My hands are sweating from watching.

The first part of this scream was terror. Then he decided to cover it with the ‘Ooo-eee’ to make it seem fun.
There are 2 types of people in the world...
Those who climb mountains, and ...
Those who watch them fall off!
Total respect to all in there and hopefully they make safe recoveries (so they can post again for my entertainment!)
I'll stay my ass on the ground
They are idiots. I have no sympathy for them!
Yeah I'm no daredevil
@@floridaarmyvet3613 I'm a Climber, You Never know how it feels, it's higher than a drug in the world.
@@uroy4380 I don't know about that.
Being cooped up in a high rise hotel penthouse suite with unlimited room service, overlooking Sydney harbour with two horny, STD free, single mothers with dubious morals, four tubes of lube, an assortment of his & hers sex toys and a trafficable amount of cocaine, is way up there as a divine experience.
The View is just as good as any climb and the thrill of the cops conducting a raid at any given time, is a pretty good adrenaline rush.....lol
@@RPAS1234 looooooooooooooool
5:48 thats why you always wear a helmet.
Too bad a helmet doesn't really help the fact her neck almost snapped
True...hard to tell what happened exactly, seems like her belayer had way too much slack out and it was a low angle fall, which is always tricky
No it’s not, it’s why you don’t climb rocks!
@@923shelby 2 of her anchors pulled out because the top placement was poor. The belay looked ok though it may have been too firm and put more load on the anchor, causing it to fail. Regardless, climbing helmets are for rock falls not ground falls.
@@LeCharles07 Some of the newer helmets, such as the Black Diamond Vision MIPS, are being made for impacts besides rock falls.
4:20 her scream was more manly than all the other guys 😂😂 they try to laugh and play it off like they weren't just about to die lol
Nah they werent playing
Wow, that was some intense moments. Thank God for safety ropes. It still must have hurt slamming into those rocks. Got a new subscriber. Was fun to watch. Great video
Hes put out 2 videos in the last 5 years sooooo good luck with that subscription Uncle Bill
I loved the one at 1:25. A life-affirming series of yelps!
Makes me appreciate the people that climb without a safety line and how talented they have to be.
You mean crazy
@@hydaromar6532 No, talented is the right word, people who free solo typically do the course a dozen times or more with gear before free soloing.
You mean calculated risk right? There is no climber dumb enough to risk life to climb difficult paths, only ones which are certified for free solos gets climbed.
@@TheDazzler420 you sir, are very wrong
@@xXxchi11xXx You know Free Solo climbers go throughly trhough the route with safety for so many times before they attempt it, only after being 100% sure.
3:58
Dude with that music I feel like "hold my beer" was said right before this lmao.
Some climbers are just too cool for helmets ay?
BAK87 they call it confidence
obviously they have never been to the section of a hospital where the brain injury patents are.
You don't need a helmet because you have a skull to protect your brain.
michelle dalton You're hitting your head full speed against a huge ass rock, your skull is meaningless in that equation
michelle dalton lmaoooooo YOU MADE my day
4:51 Little ant has every second to count after this moment with the universe 💀😭
climber fall: "arghh!!!"
saved by rope: "yeahaha!!!"
rope: "its just a prank"
climber continue falling: "arghhh!!!"
4:53 I would be PISSED off for a long time if someone belayed me like this
It was the protection that failed not the belay
Yep there was nothing that could be done at the moment
What actually happened?
I'm not a climber, and have only even roped up a thirty foot rock face just twice so I know absolutely nothing, but my initial reaction to that happening would be to blame the belayer too...
What went wrong? And just how lucky was that guy?
Thats why you don't climb toprope on a single anchor.
@@NiSiochainGanSaoirse The anchors holding the rope at the top got ripped out when he fell.
I don't understand how the lead climber can fall so far on some of those. I mean yeah there's some slack, elasticity in the rope and it may yank the belayer off the ground, and even when the top quick draw held some climbers fell nearly all the way to the bottom. Is there a reason for this? Helpful answers only please I'm looking to be educated.
It's due to a terrible belayer. If you belay lead properly the only reason to give that much slack is when they are going for a clip. Most groups in these videos are idiots because there is no communication between climber and belayer.
You DO want to give slack on lead, so the climber doesn't get pulled down by the rope as they climb, but usually a climber will announce "Clipping!", and that's the belayers que to give more slack. But after every clip they should be pulling all the slack back in.
Also you can tell who is an inexperienced climber because they try to catch them selves as they fall, which is the main reason they all end up upside down.
If you fall climbing like this, push yourself away from the wall, and keep your feet out in front of you.
Thank you, Sean. Excellent explanation, much appreciated!
Its also because when people put the clips in themselves when they are climbing, sometimes its not in the best place so when they fall the clips come out of the wall the climber will fall to the next closest clip.
Not only of that, also because of the number one misstake i see in all of this compilations. The rope runs between the legs. (i hope you understand what i mean, sorry for my english) It's ok if the route goes strait up. But if not, the rope should run OVER your upper leg and your legs never should be between the rope and the rock. Even if it feels a little bit akward, because the fall is a little bit higher, but the chance to end upside down is than very low.
Even if it's german, the illustrations in the book should be clear (best book on safety on mountains out there!)

So I ran out of coffee this morning and decided to watch this video instead. 5 min into it and yup I'm fully awake with some sweaty palms.
ha! that is a BRILLIANT comment! i should try it!
It was one of my favourite things to do. Now, I'm more into deep diving and skydiving, but I miss it.
4:57 that run-out was faaaar too long and not nearly enough protection. If you watch it back again, I think he was on just a single nut with a huge run-out, and I think the nut let go, hence he almost died. If I had to have a run-out that big, I would be using two back-to-back asymmetrics at least, preferably with a secondary, or choose another line. Dangerous!
Guy at 5:00 must have got insanely lucky not to smack his head on the rock
Damn indeed
Hey definitely did smack his head on a rock
Major belay fail. Friend F'd up big-time
@@MB-jg4tr the last 2 nuts also popped out though (4:54 rope above climber, then hardware popped)
same with the last girl, no regard for her own safety
Well, this just solidifies my non-desire to rock climb!!!
oh come on try it.
Youll only ever see falls more than 1 foot at the higher level of climbing once you begin "lead" climbing (what these climbers are doing). Go try top-roping in a climbing gym! If you fall off the wall you'll only drop about a foot. It's super safe.
That'not true, nobody places protection every 6 inches.
You can top rope...this is lead climbing...a lot more dangerous
Not quite. If an anchor point fails when top roping you go down and there's nothing else to stop you but ground. When You lead climb You use multiple anchors as You gain height. The higher off ground, the safer it gets. Whippers look scary, but mostly they're 100% safe and part of the game. They're like jumping to water - it takes practice to get it right.
3:25 brilliant advice from the ground crew. Really had a good result.
xd
man, SO many close calls of people almost hitting the rocks head first. That last one looked particularly close.
5:51 the log could have been moved out of the way before the climb for safety. Hope she’s ok.
Man, people are crazy. But thank you for footages. I got adrenaline watching these
Rock climbing isn’t dangerous... mostly
I don't rock climb, but I have a lot of respect for these guys/gals that do this. It looks so amazing! I just wish a didn't have a terrible fear of heights.
you can over come it yk??
2:04 eggs converted to omelette 😀😁
Oh dear I get what you mean now.
Oh god
Why the fuck did you put happy emojis after you're sentence you sick fuck
@@kry-9983 lmao cry about it
Bro recording emptied his bowels
1:42 3:46 They had to force laughter to cover the embarrassment of their primal screams. 😂
I love watching stuff like this! It proves that I'm not the stupidest person on earth. 😅
Know the dude at 2:04, when I saw this video I already knew I'd probably see that whipper in there. Super nice guy
4:57 made my heart stop
Shocked he didn't splatter his head on that rock
4:55 This guy is focused on filming rather than picking up the slack in the rope to save his friend from hitting the ground.
Yeah he's lucky if he didn't kill his bufy
That's a gopro dude, he's not focused on filming anything
In the moment he probably didn't know what to do
M Gill nobody said he lived
Goddamn that was so close.
Makes you respect free solo climbers even more.
Many thanks for adequate descriptions in subtitles!
The people who know they’re hooked but still scream while they’re going to fall. A scary feeling for sure but at least they didn’t drop to their deaths
Well when you climb up as high as they have and put your faith in your knot and fall 15-20 feet we’ll see how you react
Helmets can impede some routes, but I'm amazed how many risk their lives by not wearing one. You might survive the departure from the climb face, but then you head hits hard and your dead?
Climbing helmets aren't made to protect you from falling and hitting your head on things, they're meant to protect you from debris falling from above. That's why they're so different compared to cycling or ski helmets.
wagglemonkey not true, helmets these days are being designed with lower sides and back for this. There's a more than few stories out there of people who received just a concussion as opposed to a brain deading injury
DeSousausmc use a full helmet (like bikers) then, using bicycle helmets is just stupid lol
@@DeSousausmc Then people would just wear motorcycle crash helmets. Climbing helmets are for debris, stones, falling from above.
That one dude... Man, that was purely a miracle that he didn't bust his gourd.
Crazy. So many falls were way too long. A good reminder to manage a climb better. I suppose. Thanks.
I loved rock climbing. Did it from age 32 to 53. But call me a coward or smart, I avoided lead climbing. Almost always top roping. Didn’t like trusting my life to a chock, wedge or “friend”.
This was just a series of minor heart attacks for me, my Apple Watch is telling me I’m stressed 😂
the hell
more than a few close calls
2:40 that be the end of my climbing id start marathons or something instead
Lol I quit marathons to climb and was always injured running and never climbing(ya a bit of luck but mostly learned I wasn't bulletproof)
Just got my lead license, can't wait to start doing some banger falls
Genuine question - Why does it take so long for the slack on these lines to catch the climber? Is it there partners error?

2:04 his balls are definitly gone
Oof
The harness is attached to his waist and legs not his balls
@@easy_eight2810 i know right haha but with this height i doubt your balls don't get shattered to pieces
Of all the times I took falls while leading I never once screamed. I guess I was just so focussed on handling the fall as safely as possible or something.
That looks so much fun! said no one.
Videos like this keep me in check, gonna stay away from rock climbing lol
It's so much fun though :)
Neanderthal: "We should go rock climbing"
Smart Friend: "I'll be here getting the good shot...."
some damn shoddy belaying jobs
Dude these are gnarly
4:02 "Stop attacking! He's a friend! My God, what are you doing?? WAAAAAAAHH! I seem to be wounded but I can keep going"
I like how half of these people were mid-death scream, but when they realized they were gonna survive, they turned their death scream into a "WOOOOOOO" as if they were excited to save face.
I would be extremely happy if I were about to die and then survived because of some string
That's an adrenaline rush, not trying to save face.
3:34 "PUT# MADRE" "estas bien?" "SI :)"
This video has convinced me even more that I will never EVER rock climb.
How people can find this Fun is beyond me. Sweaty, palms, just watching it.
What I want to know is why only ONE guy yelled, “aahhhh my nuts!”.
Makes me want to train at the gym!
Haha I am sitting here thinking i like the safe gym.
Noe Gomez lmao you must go to lifetime huh
4:54 Did the belayer not take in the slack, or what happened there?
Winchester1979 yer something like that! too much rope out and it also stretches by around 20-30% when you fall.
so if you climb 50m high and have 60m of rope payed out. when you take a fall you can fall around 20m. And that's all good as it should be the stretch in the rope slows and cushions your fall. But if you have to much rope payed out and one or more anchors fail it's easy to hit the floor.
That's why good belaying and communication is a essential skill. rock climbing is a dangerous sport and deadly when care isn't taken.
Is that guy ok he wasn’t moving his head did he break his neck?
One meter more and that would have been a realy bad landing. Ouch! Could have been badly injured.
I get anxiety watching this. 😂these rock climbers are a different breed.
I liked the part were they fell
Where
Where
Great Shit Bro
It’s the whole video
@@suicidalbitch3424 thats the joke
0:01 who else thought they were really high on a mountain and the camera man was on the mountain next to it
I had a coworker that fell to her death doing this. May she rest in peace.
The only fails I see is how TH-cam recommends this to me, but watching people challenge themselves is always worth watching I guess
Second Guy *falls, bounces off cliff*
ANNOYED girlfriend: “you alright?!” 😩💀
So basically everyone sounds like Tarzan before cracking their skulls when they land on their heads.
All of these could have been prevented if they had stayed at home and played video games.
Disclaimer: No rocks were injured in the making of these videos🧗
Cool to see people failing but overcoming their fears and having fun and a laugh after. Glad there’s wasnt deaths or tragedies, besides a dudes go nads
imagine if it was one of those smoothbrains that does it without rope lmao
Guys, this is really rare in rock climbing band it is a really awesome experience, don’t stay in your beds! Go out and try it!
Anyways, while you do that I will be over here sitting in my bed
how about no
@@Bimgus9 You're smart then
1:40 lmaoo me at life
Why were so many of the belayers not anchored? Only takes a second, can save a life. I'm a novice climber and it just makes sense for the belayer to anchor. Also (this may be because of my novice status), but it seems on several of these there was quite a bit of slack from the belayer. I guess you place pro every half as far as you want to fall (assuming everything you place stays in place). I watch things like this to learn (good and bad habits), just like I watch others out on the rock. As for helmet comments, I always wear one. Yes, it's gotten in the way on some crack climbs, but it's also protected me more times than it's held me back. I like my head and brain functioning as it currently does, so I'm all in on the helmet issue.
to be anchored isn't really a solution. You use dynamic climbing-ropes for a reason: so it doesnt break your bones if you fall into the rope. lead-climbers often want to extend this dynamic (especially if the expect to fall quite far or often, because of the difficulty of the route) thats why you can see some belayers are not just janked of the ground, but jump up. anchoring would be really hurtfull for the climber. i myself just anchor myself if i belay a person toprope, thats heavier than me, or if the falls might not be often or long (in multipitch routes for example) But still: its just about dynamics. there should be as little slack as possible. slack has nothing to do with anchoring or not
The fall only lasts a second or two, the pain is enjoyed for a long time. St. Paul Minnesota.
I could never. These people are so damn brave 😭
my parents knew a guy who would go freeclimbing at places like 5:11 let's just say he is no longer with us
Free climbing is climbing with a rope. I think you mean free soloing, where you climb with no rope or protection
freesolo there souds like suicide.
People are crazy...just fucking go outside and take a nice walk
agentd36 you should try it it's more fun than you think stuff like this only happens to people who don't pay attention or have shitty gear
Do you need a hug?
