So nice to see a climbing video with just the real peaceful sounds of bird song, gentle breeze and clipping. It compliments the stillness and fluid focus. Much more engaging than the stock "inspiration" music that is so often smothered over all climbing footage by default.
Alex Honnold is unbelievably smooth to me. Adamn Ondra as well. Both of those guys can read a route like a book. They're obvious/easy picks, I know, but still two of the best for me.
@@stephenr80 I second that for sure. It's not just that he is strong, it's that he is incredibly good at reading beta, which is a big part of why he has so many onsights of routes that are fairly close to his limit. Honnold is also amazing at reading rock.
Congratulations !! Even in front of my PC, even if i knew you will succeed , my hands were sweating and this made me smile so much. Good job, Ben !!! And I love the nervous legs shaking at 7:18 : too much joy and accomplishment, I guess...
hubbles got upgraded from 8c+ to a 9a. it was done from ben moon early than action direct, don't know when tho. it's like biografie isn't the first 9a+ from sharma cause adam upgraded open air from alex huber which he first ratet only 9a. gotta love the oldschool climbing grades:)
Wonderful stuff Ben. Absolutely mesmerising and inspirational for those climbers with a few extra years on the clock.

Don't think I've ever seen anyone climb that fluidly.
