brilliant film. thankyou

L escalade telle qu elle aurait du rester. À des années lumières du self service d aujourd'hui. Ces mecs étaient incroyables. Avez vous remarqué il ne se poudre pas les doigts à chaque mètre et aucune broche tous les 2 mètres. Les vrais grimpeurs, ils savaient respecter le terrain. Ensuite l escalade est devenue un produit de consommation.

Sick tunes.

By heck, and we think we we the boys now! We havent got a clue what you fellas did, and what pioneers you were! Thank you for sharing this epic but of history!

Was this route well below your climbing grade? Falling looks like a death sentence

I went to St Mary's College with Bob Godfrey and remembered him making the film using caving ladders. Also we saw the film in colour. The swinging of the hammer behind Roland gave a great feeling of verticality. At college Bob made the first wooden climbing wall with wooden holds or even washers screwed in. It's angle could be adjusted against a tree. Bob was a remarkable climber, way ahead of his time. Arthur Barker

Great film. Mans of iron that time

He was using the rope to hold on as placed the protection!

That's nuts that climbing nuts used to literally be nuts. NUTS

The balls on the dudes using pebbles...my god

"Never fall on lead." No truer words spoken then or now. This is our ROOTS, climbers! This is where we come from! Well done!

I was clueless rock climbing started with pebbles.

climbers should remove the chalk they smear on the cliffs...

england is finished..destroyed by the elites..that has no interest for the incoming trash..

4:35 5.8 in my gym 🤡

Great footage - always suspected they pulled on the gear.. never done left wall.

도전하는 분들에게 건강과 행운이 같이하기를! May health and good luck be with those who take on the challenge!

I notice that the leader has very long legs which must make it less steps to get up but even so I dont think I could have swam even the first strokes in that water to get across! Am 82 now but grew up in Wales rock climbing as a child.

Brilliant!

That water looks cold ever with a wetsuit on!

In England ? You're not in England

Diffwys Dinas Gromlach.No need for foreign names least of all stupid bus stop names from Manceinion(Manchester as the English call it,)

Wow. I couldn't do it. They Re brave. I'm way Afraid of heights

Does anyone know the names of the music titles and artits names?

Interesting

We take great delight driving down cheddar gorge on our way home from work and shouting out to the guys with their clip sticks " wait up mate ill go and get you a ladder " each to their own , but somehow it just doesn't sit right .

im proud of you

What's the song called

Nice

Love it

I recall watch Eric climb on Tremadoc whilst Fawcett was repeating Strawberries for a movie, Eric moved effortlessly up and down Grim Wall and one step (ish) solo ferrying tripods and photographic gear for his mate Leo Dickinson the film maker. Mid 80's I suppose.

Damn, it's just a nut and some rope up there!

Great film. Fiddling pebbles in while wearing big boots on a hemp rope? I did Left Wall, Foil, Resurrection, Lord and Right Wall back in the 80s with Wild Country Rocks and sticky rubber and dynamic ropes and it was a serious undertaking then. They had balls of steel back in the 50s and 60s! Just imagine if somebody had invented the Beastmaker 2000 in 1965 what the standards would have been!

EBs, wired nuts and Moacs were not around until about '69. Great film.

This is priceless!

Yap, bolts were very very rare in those days, was called aid climbing?

Well at least they didn't put bolts in. Respect for the rock has long gone.

Rowland. . .This is Dave Mellor here. . .Just found this on U Tube. . .fantastic memories from Wales in the early 60's old friend. .It's a long time since we picked Terry up from the bottom of Lythrig on Cloggy the day we were on Dyweth Grove. I talked to Al Burgess a while ago and he says him and Aid met you over in Spain a couple of years ago and you are still knocking off new routes. I'm 80 next year, still in the Bahamas. . Treasure Hunting, Sailing and diving these days. . Finished my Big climbing three years ago after starting again when I was 57 but had a good fun run. 20 Himalayan/Tibet/Pakistan trips 6 x 8 thousanders and the 7 summits. . Best Wishes or the New Year to You and Yours.

I remember the first time I went climbing with people who weren’t the guys I learned with... and one comes up and says ‘is this your coat mate? Don’t forget it! Why are the pockets full of these stones? Stop it blowing away?’ I told him no.... it’s if they will do I’ll use me over a nut.... He had never heard of it before! Thought I was crazy at first... then some sort of pro climber as he told all his mates about the loony who uses pebbles instead of pitons.

Jones wearing mountain boots!! How things have changed, chalk being used on Stanage crack severes in the 21st Century FFS.

Excellent camera work and great to see, so many memories of that time. Yes, climbing on-sight was the norm to measure success. Thank you for posting.

Thanks climb! I think I'll have to call my friend terry (a man) to get some of that liquid. He's a Fairy. Or a Fruit. Not sure. But he likes young men!

Priceless footage. Thank you
