Love how narrator Magnus kept getting interrupted by climbing Magnus so naturally 😅
ikr? It was weirdly wholesome haha
The two of them make a great team. :D
I think you’re super wrong when you say the easy boulders won’t be interesting. I don’t know what the general climbing level of your audience is, but for us non-7c climbers it’s invaluable to watch you climb « easy » boulders. Seeing how you move on them and the solutions you use helps a lot as we can visualize the movements, even if we can’t climb them.
Couldn't agree more, love seeing how you move so swiftly over those 6abc boulders and find solutions I never thought about
i second that
Amen!
This!
Yep I would second that easy problems are interesting to watch as well.
There is something addictingly mesmerizing about watching you climb boulder after boulder in this format. You’re just so smooth and easy, it’s kinda like watching a skilled artist work or something. At 45 mins I literally felt like it had only been 10 or 15 and I was sad. Lol
I agree, its awesome👌👌
I just looked at the time in the video that Im at, and it was minute 45 lol
Like watching Bob Ross paint
It's weird. I've never actually step foot on a boulder wall and I have very little idea what is going on in the video most of the time but I find it captivating to watch you climb.
I'm a very large guy, and even if I weren't so heavy, I would have such a hard time gripping because my frame is giant compared to most climbers. And that's even with me feeling like my grip strength is pretty above average. I just couldn't fathom even hanging from my fingertips.
I watch his videos because they're mesmerising. Humans are so damn cool sometimes.
@science
you should try and see if you like it :)
@@josefanon8504 I have been tempted but I know I don't have a great body type for climbing. I'm naturally endomorphic so I'll always have a weight disadvantage.
@@sciencemadgamer4199
Just see if you enjoy it and have fun. Because if its fun for you, it doesnt matter if you might have some disadvantages. I've seen all sorts of body types bouldering. I.e. from ~40kg to ~115kg.
@@josefanon8504 I would but I already have a workout that is good for me and work out five days a week. I'm not looking to switch things up at the moment.
Especially not for a sport I haven't got the faintest clue about and would have to start from scratch in.
I'll stick to watching Magnus float up walls.
This video should be called: "Magnus actually warms up for a session"
Haha, thats what I was thinking too!
havn´t laughed that hard in a long time! :D
Yess!!
Magnus : good route setters makes it difficult to find the solution
*magnus not finding the solution*
Magnus : this problem is so awkward 😂
It's not only your skill, but your personality as well that people enjoy.
I started climbing a few weeks ago, so only a VB climber (V0+ is my BEST send). Watching you climb through your videos has literally been an inspiration for me to keep going to the climbing gym and improving myself. I'm 245lbs/111kg/17.5st (I know you've said not to focus on weight in other videos, but it's hard not to when you're labelled "obese") so going to the (public) gym isn't easy for me.. On days that I feel I want to give up and not go, I put on one of your climbing videos, see some of your techniques and it really makes me want to TRY to get better.
I guess what I'm saying is THANK YOU for creating the content that you do, and for being a generally cool person. (Sorry for the long comment)
Climbing is for everyone! I hope you keep enjoying climbing and find/have a good gym that is welcoming. I've seen some climbers with pretty diverse body types on TikTok if you ever are looking for some more climbers to follow. But yeah, Magnus is great.
If it makes you feel any better, I weight around 235 and am 5 9. I have been working out for quite some time but can't do a pull up. I My first time climbing I did a V2. I just climbed for the 3rd time yesterday and did a v3. You can progress very easily. Do not focus on your weight, but rather your technique. Your weight will not affect your performance until you reach a higher level. Just try to increase your pulling and forearm strength.
Keep it up bro
Dude, you're amazing. Keep going!
Update: I haven't lost any weight, but my grip strength has improved significantly. I sent my first V2 last week, and I'm trying to solve a V2+ & V3 slabs now.
I guess it really is a fact that you shouldn't fear the numbers. Every location and route setter is different, so some V1-'s I've tried are way harder than a V3.. I'm learning to just get on the wall and have fun. That's the whole point right?
Demographic anomaly: I'm in my sixties and have never been even close to climbing in any way. Never will be. Still, I watch every one of your videos all the way through. You are inspiring and Marte is fun to watch because she represents to me a measure of how difficult these challenges are (while you represent the best of what's possible). Watching her fight through challenges is very inspiring perhaps because the core of this channel is achievement and challenging yourself and it's not supposed to be easy. You both inspire me in different ways. Love it all!
And also she is adorable and beautiful, right? 😊
60 isn’t too old to start!
@@olympus9451 I love the welcoming nature of the people in climbing! Thanks for the thought.
@@WirewalkerDon We have a couple in their 60s who climb at our gym, every time I see them it inspires me to think one day me and my partner will be them guys 😃 #lifegoals
Great comment, love to read it !
I can't be the only one who really enjoys watching him crush all of the easier problems. There's something really satisfying about it.
Very good technique, he should try entering a competition
@@awinick9309 he already outplayed the competitions long time ago:)
@@christiaanvisser1779 I was making a joke
I enjoyed it too! The boulder gyms in our area do not rate their routes with the official grading system, so it was fun for me to guess what my max level would be
It's like popping bubble wrap
Ex V11+ climber here, took 5 years off and now V4 is hard. It's almost a humbling feeling what it's like to have to work for those tough ones again, especially when you forget what those feel like to new climbers. Honestly at first I felt discouraged because I would hold myself to this pedestal of what I once was. Now, after a month of getting back to it, I climb for the love of it. Don't let your past self ruin your present passion! :)
If you used to climb more than v11 which is almost Magnus level and took only 5 years off you wouldn’t have difficulty with a v4, I climbed v4 normally after 1 month when I started climbing, v4 is a beginner grade
@@lookherelooklisten7850 good for you, nobody asked
grade difiiculties are different at each gym
@@lookherelooklisten7850 what a stupid reply. He could be way out of shape or have gotten injured or anything in those 5 years...
@@lookherelooklisten7850 🤡
@@lookherelooklisten7850 As others have said, it might have been an injury or anything. Also the pandemic in the middle of his five years (I suppose) probably made things even worse. Life can be a bitch sometimes and I hope you will never understand this.
This video was worth watching all the way through. The way you filmed and edited really made it come across as though we as the viewers were sitting on the floor also chalked up and tired from hanging out and watching you climb all night. Really fun video, and a prime example of to-the-point, honest, authentic vlogging can really capture an audience. Love it Magnus
I honestly love this kind of video because it’s perfect to just put on and listen to someone and it’s just so much climbing content in one video
Same, I constantly go back to the first 100 boulder challenge for some relaxing content to watch and just enjoy some climbing.
Yes, I found the music and voiceover to be relaxing even though Magnus is working his butt off. Really enjoyed this.
Same here! Whenever I'm working from home and feeling a bit lonely, I play his videos on my second screen 😄
Same here!
To be honest I'd be interested in the long video with little to no commentary (just music) except for the comments he made on camera.
Guysss Magnus midtbo has his own signature move : Its the spin after he jumps of the route he does. That’s called the Magnus spin. 😃
female non-climber subscriber here. i mainly watch your videos for the climbing because it’s interesting and enjoyable watching passionate and incredible climbers like you, adam ondra, alex honnold, etc. tackle different boulders or routes whether indoors or outdoors!
YA JUST DROOLIN OVER SOME ABS GURLLLLL
Magnus, you mentioned that many people wouldn't watch this, but I want to let you know even in 2024 we are still watching the full video. Keep making great videos!
I know you look at viewership metrics, but I just wanted to let you know that many people (including myself) may watch a video like this over multiple viewings. I love these longer videos, so please don't think that if we drop off at say minute 20 that we don't pick it back up later.
Keep up the climbing content, my household loves to watch it!
Magnus (climbing V3s): "So the boulders are still pretty boring, I promise they're gonna get a lot more exciting."
Me, a V3-V4 climber: =(
Totally 😂
@ᴛᴀᴘ ᴍᴇ ᴀɴᴅ sᴇᴇ Olivia It is motivating to watch Magnus. A good RUclips channel for you to have a look at is Debats or dab rats not sure of spelling.
@@andrewgilbertson5356 Bouldering Bobat? Those guys are great!

the killuaa profile pic i would not have expected here thats awesome
Not a climber. 209cm/106kg Boxer. Long time sub and first time commenter. Watched the whole thing without skipping. Beyond impressed at your stamina and the willingness to take that kind of punishment. Hats off to you mate and all the best!
I love climbing because it is timeless. I'm watching this 2 years after it came out and it's still so cool and fun to see and watch.
Magnus: "Climbing down to save my back. That's a sign I'm getting older"
Also Magnus: *jumps down immediately after*
They're filmed out of order
Holy... Now this is the kind of content we need
I started climbing last week and I'm binge-watching all your videos. I really love that you really push hard and give your 100% every time. Respect
You are such an inspiration. Ive been afraid of heights and falling for my entire life. The past year i went climbing with my gf for the first time and slowly got more comfortable with it. Im still afraid often but am able to do way more than i ever thought I could. Now watching you, I want to officially get my own membership and practice more often as i love mental+physical challenges.
Me, a solid V4 climber, intensely watching the “easy boulders that probably aren’t that interesting” 😀 anyway - Yes, indeed I do love watching the videos Marte is in!
Same! Im in my teens and I go to the local climbing gym with my best friend and it takes me half a session to complete a V4. It is so funny and humbling seeing Magnus complete a v4 in under a minuet👍
Same, V3-V4 myself. Can't get all that much out of seeing Magnus do high grades, but can maybe learn a thing or two studying how he does the easier grades.
@@blinkymon There is a certain "rule of 5 Bs" I teach every V3-V4 climber.
I got all excited when he was out of breath after the first 2 climbs but then he said, these are not in the order I have climbed them and I have done a lot of boulders before this one :-( , ah well more climbing will fix that :-p
Hey Magnus! impressive, you're a beast! You mentioned the gym's route setters a lot, it would be interesting to watch a video with them setting some problems and explaining the logic of it:).
I second this, it would be super interesting to see how they think about approaching an idea. One of my all time favorite videos of yours is the one where you and Pete try to set super hard routes for each other. The magic of route setting is super intriguing!
yeeeeeeessssssssss
I also would love to see a video about the route setting and maybe also on wich criterias they give the routes their grades.
Wow! 120 boulders! 🔥🔥🔥I watched the entire video without skipping anything. I've followed you for a few years now as a climber but this year I started setting. The boulders on your gym are not only fun but also aesthetically pleasing. ¡Saludos desde México!
"How many problems can one do in one session?"
Magnus: "Yes"
The way you speak to your us (your audience) has the feel of just chatting with a mate. I find it seriously impressive that you can be that engaging and natural in a basically one way conversation.
Hey Magnus regarding clickbait. It is all about the quality of the video. Some people clickbait and the video is pure trash. They have nothing else going for them. You on the other hand have talent. The quality of the video is really good. Nice music, lighting, camera angle, commentary. Dont feel bad for trying to promote quality content.
I fully agree with Marc - if you create a bait that leads us to watching quality content, what's not to like? Do you think we'll think worse of you because you "deceived" us into watching interesting stuff? :)
BTW Derek from Veritasium elaborated on types of clickbaiting just last week - his video is a good introduction to this topic.
The worst type of clickbait is interesting questions where the RUclipsr rambles for half an hour to answer it and it turns out the answer is actually, short simple and boring (or they don’t really answer it at all). Some of Magnus’ titles are borderline sensationalist. “WORLDS HARDEST CLIMBING TEST” (in capital letters) is probably the worst.
WORD !
As someone who has recently returned to climbing, after many years off, it's nice to see the varying difficulties of bouldering. These videos help a lot with planning and technique. Thanks Magnus.
That one at 12:20 was amazing, the solution being that you have to jam your knee in there and can basically hold yourself up there with no hands? Incredibly impressive and creative by whoever set that one
I'm a woman at the start of my climbing path, and I really enjoy seeing easier problems too. The super hard problems seem so out of my reach that I can't even imagine myself doing them. But I love when you have people who are new to climbing who struggle on easier ones, somehow that gives me tons of motivation :)
@Christina 19 y.o - check my vidéó And i recognize names like yours "Christina". It feel like talking to an comment spamming bot..... oh nevermind you are one.
i'm, also an waman
@@bobfred9360 ok bob
EVEN MAGNUS AGREES. The boulders in this gym got harder after the lockdown. I thought it was just my quarantine body but the boulders are harder than their grades show and I really really like it.
Agree 120% here... The boulders got quite a bit harder at my gym compared to their pre-lockdown average. I think that is the case in many gyms globally! Not a bad thing, means I got to up my climbing game!
@@Alexhenn1804 During locks down I trained a lot at the gym with the setters, while most people couldn't have access to a gym. We all got a lot stronger, and when they re set it was indeed quite a bit harder, because their base level was higher too. I think that's why with most gym
Mine got easier!
These V3s look so much easier than ours at my climbing gym in Texas. They do Team USA stuff there so idk if that's it or maybe these just look easier than they are in real life.
I've experienced this as well. Its almost like the setters in my area forgot how to set v1-5 completely.
It would've been cool to see this presented in the order you climbed. Both to see how you chose to space out the different grades, and so we could follow along with your physical (and mental) strain throughout the night and how that was affecting the climbs. Plus when you talk about finishing before the gym opens that could've created some tension, the ticking clock element.
Magnus, your videos always have a killer soundtrack. Whoever is choosing the music is doing it very well
i love how every single one of these long climb videos I think “im just gonna watch some of it” and I end up watching the whole thing
I'm not even a climber but something about your climbing videos makes me want to watch more and more... So thanks for keeping me entertained for 50 minutes straight 😃
START CLIMBING ALREADY! :P
he's shirtless. that's probably why
@@Andreastheduck I mean, that's part of it. Not a big part, but it is nice.
I'm late but I love all your videos, you don't have to keep explaining yourself or your actions, or worrying about specific content being boring ("boring easy climbs" I am working on v3/v4 so theyre not boring to me) etc.
Not boring at all, and create what you want, brother! Cheers, Daniel
Magnus, I must say, although the easier problems won't feel interesting to you, watching you go through the motions still held a lot of information for me. I am currently at 6a level, so more or less a beginner, so please know, that your work on the easier routes is still appreciated.
Hell yeah
I 2nd this
(As a women) I really like the videos with Marte in it (especially because of your interactions), however it is not the main reason I watch.
Man I just love watching you climb! I just started the sport seriously/on a regular basis and struggle on these lower grades. I just am mesmerised with watching you breeze through it.
Watched the whole lot, even though the only thing I've ever climbed is the stairs. :) Amazed at the hard work that went into making this video, all the camera placements the lights, and then having to do the climbing on top. A marathon session.
Thanks for putting in so much work! it's actually very admiring to see you climb like this and keep going eventhough it gets really tough.
Magnus saying that he recognizes names in the comments and feels like he's talking to the audience and not just the camera goes to show why he is one of the most wholesome youtubers on the platform.
This video came at perfect time. I was just wondering what to watch tonight and this is it
Told myself several times i will watch him do one more and then suddenly i watched the entire thing in 1 go. You are amazing. Will start climbing again in a few weeks it has been years. Watching you seems like a good preparation. You more than earned a subscribe
I never climbed and most likely never will, but I'm here just because I love your videos. I think the climbing isn't the main reason for me, it's that you seem to be an amazing person. I'm cool with whatever content you create.
I nearly never write comments but this time I just have to. Amazing to see you bouldering again in such a long video !!!!!! I love it!
I would imagine there aren’t that many people in the world that have both the skill and strength to just casually do every single boulder problem in a gym. This is incredible!
I struggle with reading the different routes and watching this helped so much!! Thank you!
Going to my first climbing gym tomorrow, all because of you. You'r videos are like therapy, You'll reach 2M soon Magnus, I know it
I was debating going to the gym today... this might send me over the edge
me trying to pronounce Marte's name: "marr tuh"
Magnus pronouncing Marte's name: "loch ness monster"
I'm french, so i don't understand your joke😂
LMAO
@@loss7265 Merde?
@@loss7265 il dit que n'importe qui prononce "Marte" simplement alors que Magnus prononce plutôt "mah-ha-jte"
Loved the video! I’ve been watching it in the background whilst doing other stuff and I end up mainly watching this 😂 so good to see you do the lower grade routes as it gives so much inspiration for me as a new climber (started like 2 ago). So thanks for posting the great content! 🙏😄
Impressive, enjoyed that very much. Watched from start to finish. Appreciate the hard effort, awesome!
Some feedback as I'm watching:
Magnus' personality is more why USA probably watches... Level of calm while doing difficult things and explaining them is something we like
Of course people watch more when Marte is along... We're all trying to learn Norwegian curse words and the couple is great to watch doing things together.
Climbing or not, the life of Magnus is intriguing... Probably why I'm buying the book.
> Magnus's personality is more whu USA probably watches... Level of calm while doing difficukt things and explaining is something we like
I think thats pretty universal, atleast its the same in Sweden
The us demo is probably because it has a ton of people

I love watching your videos with my 3 year old. He's always cheering you on saying things like "try again!" or "you can do it!". Warms my heart.
I can tell this took a lot of work not just to climb but to film and edit. Great job, super chill video to have on
This really motivated me seeing you struggle through to the end! You’re amazing and love your content!
Love the videos. I am not even a climber and this is one of my favorite channels. I have gone to a college climbing wall maybe twice with a friend. That is the extent of my climbing background. I watch these videos to relax. It is something so hard that Magnus makes look effortless. Tbh what brought me here was a toyota related video because my main interest is cars and working on cars. Just thought I would share how I arrived to this channel. Glad I did though.
Big thumbs up for not reading out loud Czechia but saying Czech Republic instead! :)
New to your channel and loving it mate! Really enjoying this format too with the voice over talking about random stuff until the harder boulders. Having a fab binge watch
dude, you're amazing, amazing climbing (as always) and you are just incredibly good at keeping entertained, never watched a 53 min video with this ease
As someone who only climbs up to 7A+ I really like watching the easy problems too because they really let us watch your form and extreme strength. Good video Magnus, good luck on 1mil!
I love how Pete haunts all your videos.
Even in this one with the shoes discussion, followed by the Wide Boys volume !
You nailed that flipperoo
I've watched this video like 3 times in 5 months. Feels good coming back and getting motivation for sending harder climbs in my own gym!
amazing video sat through all of it and don`t regret a thing. i love how much work you put into the videos, magnus, and i really like seeing you climb so many different boulders, even the easier ones
I watched the entire video, Magnus and let me tell you: at this point you just feel like our friend who is a remarkable climber and very talented at creating videos! You are truly an inspiration. Keep it up and greetings from one of the 1% Austrians!
I am from Gosau in Upper Austria. So we are already 2 Austrians watching Magnus. Love these vids!!!
Stop doubting yourself Magnus! It's great content. Even the easier problems! Watched the whole video and I enjoyed it very much!
This! Magnus, you are such a perfectionist... ;)
This is such a well put together video! The climbing is mesmerizing, the music is great, the establishing shots are well done, and the voiceover is really nice and chill. Time really flew by.
I love your channel man, you seem like a very genuine guy! thank you for this. just start rock climbing and I can't wait to be able to climb like you!
Hey Magnus, when you say you look tired and not climb really well, then still your moves are so fluid and so inspiring to try climbing again and again. Cheers from Hungary - also great music choices
Incredible video, so so entertaining to watch this magnus. And thankyou so much for adding the V scale into your videos as an American we only understand the V scale haha
Absolutely amazing, great to watch and nice to hear all the extra tidbits during the voiceover, lots of good info. Thanks for sharing, Magnus, looking forward to the next time you try it!
Loved the longer video. Watching you climb for so long is mesmerising. Keep up the good work 👍👍
Great editing Magnus. Love the running commentary and introspective thoughts.
Glad to be part of the 1% watching from Singapore and the 9.2% lady viewer + subscriber! Always enjoy watching your content!
Thank you for everything you do Magnus you for sure gained a new subscriber and got someone who never thought of rock climbing into it.. i’m gonna be going to my first gym in these coming weeks!!
Coolest video I watched over the last week. It just takes you into the atmosphere of 2am climbing gym with the music and chill narrative. I have to be honest, during the day when I want to switch my brain from the job I would rather choose a 5-10 min video(I know it is not an ideal rest for the brain). So, even though videos like this are not too popular these days on youtube, I still appreciate the effort and sincereness Magnus puts into these. Thanks
Was already asking what to do this evening. With all the fresh popcorn... *chalks hands before eating*
Hey Magnus, thanks man. You're channel introduced me to climbing.
This sport plucked and threw me far out of depression XD.
Thanks so much man.
Also, to Juji and Tom who introduced me to you XD.
Really enjoyed the voice overs on this, Magnus. It’s fun getting a “peak behind the curtain” and hearing you talk about your process. I also appreciate the variety of content you put out. Keep up the good work! 🤘🤘🤘
I watched this whole video, which I downloaded, on the plane flying from Birmingham to Zürich. It just made me want to climb! 😮😊
I visited my local climbing gym for the first time last week. I had so much fun despite being new at it. Everyone there was nice. I'm definitely going back. Thank you for the inspiration.
I love how magnus feels more comfortable making a voice over these kind of video's. Keep up the work ❤
Magnus I think you are underestimating how much the viewers can learn by watching you climb the easy problems. They are not easy for everyone.
Such videos are actually a nice almost “background” videos, very soothing and yet interesting. I work home and my main work is in my laptop, and turning this video on while working helps to focus, because 1) it is nice to hear Magnus talking to you, 2) you understand that Magnus is doing his best to reach the limit and you kinda need to work this hard too
The video feels like meditation for my soul. Thanks for putting in the hard work to share this with us.
You're impressed with those of us who watched it all - I'm pretty impressed with hoe easy you made the 8A look - and also how you seemingly flashed every boulder in the gym. Insane!
Love the videos you create. You've got me motivated to see what is the best physical shape I can get too and rock climbing will be my testing grounds. I've only climbed a few time in my life, but I absolutely love it. I personally think yours and other folks who do climbing videos are inspiring people into this incredible sport, which means people are getting together and I believe that is a great thing in itself.
I got into climbing again a week ago, and you were a part the inspiration
You made that V11 look like a V2! I can't imagine how strong you'd need to be to make it look that easy. I also really enjoyed watching you climb the lower grades, they're relatable for me and probably a lot of other viewers and it's cool to see how a really adept climber approaches them.
Very cool! As a beginner climber I actually really enjoyed watching the “easier problems”. Thanks for sharing the journey, that looked like a hell of a training session!
So much fun to watch, thank you for this video!
Impressive persistence! I love how much you challenge yourself, in so many ways- not just the physical aspect, but the mental and emotional aspects of climbing too. Very inspirational!
Hey Magnus, just wanna say even though YouToube is super "clickbaitey" these days, there is still a lot of people out here who like genuine titles that are not misleading and just state what is actually happening.
Either way - your videos are incredibly good. Cuts, music, voice over, entertainment level etc. all just great 👍
As if I needed any more motivation to go to the climbing gym today. Okay Magnus. You win
Didn't realize female viewers were so rare. I love watching and hearing about the climbing, and especially your more viral 'pretend to be a beginner'. I've never tried bouldering, but this channel inspired me to go rock climbing on my recent climb to Alaska. Just short top rope, 5.5-5.7 climbs, I didn't make it to the top of my climbs, but about 55-60 feet of a 70 foot wall each time. My first time climbing, and I haven't been rapelling in 20+ years, so it was just really fabulous. Thanks for the inspiration!
Watched it all and it was brilliant!!! Thank you
