'would I do that?!?' thank you so much for uploading these absolute gems. Pure gold :)
Climbed it like a ruptured duck
Isn’t that from something Don Whillans said?
Erik Hays yep. Love it.
... absolute classic film from a pair of climbing legends. Chris using Scarpa Canyons wow and those cast iron crabs. loved the "Jolly well difficult" from Pete.. Thanks for the post..
Pete was such a talented climber !
Bonnington climbed that like a landed fish!
When Wild Country “Friends” aka spring loaded camming devices were “new fangled”. Funny how much discussion they caused at the time. Thank you Ray Jardine
great stuff, I love this film.... take in! bloody desperate man! all on a waist belay
The sounds of climbing. So much better than listening to musak.
Good to see the Elvis leg going on. Its your bodies way of making sure you always remember that climb. great videos thanks for the upload.
I didn’t know it was called that! Fearful Elvis leg lol
My heart was in my mouth for a moment there. Well done.
Wow, thanks for posting, instant flashback to when I first started climbing. How times have changed.
"If ya get stuck I'll dangle a pound note over Thi head"
"Would I ever do that?"
What a legend 😂
Finally I can say I climb just like Bonnington ... "Take in .. tight TIGHT"
@@shredforeffectHa ha ha. Pull me up!
@@civedm reminds me of when I used to climb🤣
This is just legendary 😱
Brilliant, thanks for posting.
Love the ‘new fangled things’ at 5:28.... looked a bit under-cammed to me.....but hey this guy could hand me my arse on a plate so maybe he knows better!
Great lead Well done Looked desperate for Chris Thanks for sharing
Amazing video! Thank you!
Watching from 🇨🇦
What a challenging crag you are encountering, Sir!
great stuff! Thanks for posting this. 👍
Brilliant footage…… if Chris Bonington didn’t have that plummy, supercilious accent, we’d all feel a little bit less smug at his discomfiture…….but he at least has the honesty to admit he’s struggling. But hats off to him - even in my climbing days I wouldn’t have managed a few feet on that nightmare. Many thanks
Pete = hero... what a guy...
Nice and clean now, Pete 👍🏼
Take in! Tight!
Shit when you can't second someone's lead isn't it 😂😂😂
Watching CB struggle makes one realise just how good Pete was.
TAKE IN TIGHT.... I mean" Hell! PUll me up!"
if i wanted to watch an old guy, failing at the end of a rope for 10 minutes... i would have recorded myself!... I feel the pain.
realy wrilly hard in that condition
Pete using a classic belay. Can anyone remember using the "rack" at the Plas y Brenin outward bound centre?
That looked hard
"TAAAKE inn!!"
Nails that even with modern boots
That Pete guy has massive cable like climbing muscles twisting around his bones showing through the skin.
😂Fml "TAKE IN!!!"
Take in!
I think he wants him to take the rope in! Get the feeling he (Bon) would have happily thrown him off the cliff
Always seems like the climbs in Great Britain are far more mentally challenging even if bolted the distances between are far longer.
If yer get stuck I’ll dangle a £1 note over the edge Chris! 😊 the cockiness of the lead climber at its best!
Pioneers
"Take in" 😂
desparate, my mate used to give me slack at times to encourage me lol!
My brother and climbing partner always left a bit of slack so you As second could fully appreciate "the situation" that one of us lead!
What was all that at 8.20 pulling on gear?
He fell off.
Anyone know the year? From the gear (rigid Friends with tied loops, high top sticky shoes, almost modern harnesses) I'm guessing early/mid 80's.
Rapping to a grassy ledge close to the end of the rope without knots in the ends ... burrr
Pete got some haul bag practice for when him and Ron went to Yosemite.
get one of these new fangel things... its a cam
good to see someone ckeaning away all those chalk marks left by climbers
Why is Bonnington complaining about a slack top rope? Did he want to climb the route or get pulled up it...
To be fair he did mention that this was a level where he was likely to struggle. Which must be tough for such a great climber like Sir Bonny in his 50s (born 5 years before WW2).
I'll tell all. I gave him a tight rope on the crux!
That Pete guy wasn't like by all back in the day
Ncc
He creeped up that face.
Take in you sod!!!
WTF Bonington?
Have a proper rest rather than thrashing around trying to flap upwards with the gear still clipped. 😂
He really was a stumbly on technical rock wasn’t he?
How hard is this these days?
it depends on how much cheating you need.
now E6 6c because some holds broke.....but that is with modern protection. Livesey was making 6c moves in EB shoes -that's like V8/9 type moves!!!
Fire'
Just pull me up ffs I can’t do it
Not acceptable now, things have moved on. Natural , or leave it alone.
Never heard so many unnecessary takes in my life. Dude's afraid of a 3 inch toprope death fall.
For all Petes ethical problems that followed him, there is no doubt about it, he was a strong climber and iconoclastic in his day. Fantastic footage, much of which i can relate to, both ends.
Im not familiar with Pete Livesey's ethical problems. What happened?
Nice short shorts. Should have climbed in a pair of Speedo's.
Take in!
