@@mikegruber1771 I think he's going to have to make a visit if he wants to send this! haha Hilarious to get to a crack in the world's hardest problem and *then* call the Wide Boyz to ask, "how do you climb cracks?" 🤣
@@mikegruber1771 Stefano in the cellar! Clearly has to happen before Stefano goes back to Flatanger again. There's only so much Pete could teach him over video call.
Stefano, Pete, and Adam all in one video! This is so great, I am glad this is being documented so masterfully. Hearing Adam analyze all the betas and Stefano's task is soooo cool
Shout out to the people filming and editing: the sound design, the colours, the pacing, just everything about the video quality is beyond anything I’ve seen such a small crew do!
Adam's crew are very talented people in cinematografy to me it looks like they had theirs part in this :D When you check Adam's channel you will understand what i'm talking about . And if not , wow it seems like every pro climber gets a pro cinematografers
The added humor, in-the-moment commentary, awkward cuts, and Kubrick reference takes these short climbing videos to high quality entertainment. I love pure, hard climbing, but these videos are getting better and better every time. Thanks to everyone putting it out there!
Oh hey nice to see Pete in here! Edit: the second half of this video, where Stefano starts figuring out his beta, is just so good! Really well filmed and edited! If he doesn't end up sending it this year, he'll have to do a visit to the wide boyz crack cellar;) Now that'd be fun to see!
After he visited the cellar, silence will be cracked. He will do it even easier than adam. Maybe some brand will also design a shoe so he can jam and climb the rest pretty nicely
Stefano is 13 days younger than Adam. I think this makes it even more epic of a journey, because Stefano started on plastic while Adam was a full blown rock expert since he was a kid. Stefano is just catching up, and hes catching up fast.
The successor would have to be a whole generation younger while still crushing the limits of rock climbing (Redpoint, Flash, Onsight, Boulder, Comp, etc.), so that after surpassing them being young enough to expand them. Like Adam was to Chris. Perhaps a youngling out there will be...
Stefano, one of the things I love about the way you're documenting this is your humility and acknowledging that this is a team process. Most of climbing media is focused on only the climber. Even when other people are interviewed, they're talking about the climber. And that's okay--not everyone even wants to be in the public eye. But the reality is that nobody climbs alone. And it's awesome that you're showing Adam Ondra and Pete Whittaker's contributions to your process publicly--not just showing them as hype men for your achievement, but also showing how their insights are helping you make progress.
How lucky we are as climbers to be represented by people like Stefano Ghisolfi and Adam Ondra. Such amazing ambassadors for the sport. Two of the nicest and most genuine seeming people out there.
finally pete gets a litte bit more appreciation for his incredible easy looking send of the first crux :D I am really looking forward to these videos every thursday ;)
@@lucaa4480 that’s right! I recall him saying about the first part leading up to the beginning of the first crux: “there were some holds I didn’t think any human being could hold “ or something like that..
What surprises me every time is that every move seems to take maximum effort. And then you have to do them all. In one go. Perfectly. And somehow, it does! Thus far, I am not worried about a downgrade :D
The videos realization is really going insane : picture visual, sponsors presentation, intro, climbing sequences, music, littteraly everything is going ham, that's crazy. This serie will soon become an epic reference.
This is the best climbing video of the year. I`ve not been that psyched since Chris and Adam sent la dura dura. I love that you brought in Adam and Pete. Thats the way Stefano! I wish you good luck with you progress and I really would like see you repeat this one!
Wow, just one of the very few most exciting climbing videos ever created... I waited all week for thursday.. turned the light down.. full screen.. and then this, it couldn't have been any better. Interview with Pete about his beta, best and most detailed comments on Silence that Adam was ever giving, a possible new beta, that, luckily, includes the a fair bit of jamming.. all of which edited into breathtaking story telling. So fckn hyped!!!
Amazing video, it feels like when a video game you loved gets a perfect expanded remake. And you even see the main character from the original game, the O dog himself, to give opinion on what you do. And the production quality, music, amazing, I love it!
What a privilege to be able to watch one of the best climbers in the world working on the hardest route in the world with such amazing footage and editing. The intro was stunning. I used to be a climber in my younger days, and I know how much work it takes to get good video like this. Thank you, good luck, and send that thing!
Wow, seeing you feet first trying new betas... even lying on my bed my hole core was tensed. Feeling like climbing with you. So intense. Daleee Stefano!!
@@plasmaastronaut beta is actually completely unrelated to greek alphabet in climbing. There was a climber in Texas who sold tapes called betamax which showed how to do a climb. That term is now used for the exact same -- any way to finish a climb or a part of a climb. There can be good beta and bad beta and tall beta and short beta and so on
Stefano this is amazing! Your climbing footage mixed with Adam's commentary highlights just how crazy difficult this route is and adds so much to the effort you are putting in. Keep trying!!!
I love these progress videos, they’re an awesome peek into the projecting process and the hard work that goes into the polished send video. And way more inspiring and insightful than a send! I love the intro too!
When I first saw the title of the video, I was thinking that you broke the beta and silence might end up getting downgraded. After seeing your new beta, that still looks like a 9c! Linking those that route together is going to be tough. Good luck stefano!
It's so fitting that after underestimating the first part of the crux he got some advice from Pete "I'm going to overestimate it" Whittaker for the crack part. Great video and even greater progress! I have no doubt Stefano will find a way, his positive attitude and persistence is so inspiring!
I love how process-oriented and methodical Stefano is. There's a light-hearted yet supremely dedicated feel to his approach, which I haven't really seen before in climbing films. I'm really enjoying this series on Silence.
Video davvero stupendo, ma la positività con cui stai affrontando questo progetto è ciò che mi stupisce e fa sorridere di più, la ritengo la più grande delle tue doti, soprattutto come persona oltre che come scalatore. I migliori auguri per il resto del mese, sono sicuro che i progressi continueranno a saltar fuori 💪🏻
Super exciting this series, respect! It seems to me that if Adam says crux 1 is possibly his hardest boulder, then he is possibly the only climber currently alive who can climb the boulder exactly as he did, then this complete boulder alone will possibly earn more than 8c, crazy!
Adam's commentary takes this to another level. You can tell he is so relieved to never have to get back on it and let someone else go through the struggle. Meanwhile Stefano has such optimism in the face of a huge task.
This is one of the best climbing videos I've seen in a long time. I love seeing the multiple falls on every move interspersed with both Stefano and Adam describing them. It helps put into perspective how out this world the route is.
Stefano man your videos are becoming top tier quality. The hilarious beginning, Pete Whitaker cameo, Adam’s comments, and your unique and equally cool beta made this one incredibly fun to watch
Great vid and progress Stefano! Pete trying to teach you technical crack climbing over the internet reminded me of when as a kid I heard a Rubik's cube expert trying to help someone solve the Rubik's cube over the phone on a radio show!
It all make it look like a big and unite family brought together by this sport which is just great. Living in climbing world is just common goals, collaboration and humanity that goes far beyond competition and is the most beautiful part for me. Well done video Ste! There’s a lot of your style and funny outcome all through it
I'm so lucky to have caught Stefano's channel a few weeks ago, to see these historical attempts being made real time. You are now my new favorite climber my friend!
It so cool to watch this process. We've all been wanting this for years and you are completely killing it. Watching you solve the first crux on something so absurdly hard and weird is a joy - thank you. :)
I like that you are sharing experience with other climbers. Especially with Pete and Adam! And I admire your patience and power you put into this route. Go on for it, you will make it!
This beta for the crux seems super intensive. But if anyone, Stefano can do it. I don't think I have ever rooted this much for anyone to send a route. Go Stefano!
Shitty knickers that looks every bit 9c. Was hard to tell from watching Adam send it just how hard this was. Seeing it again from all the angles confirms its the next level. Amazing video by the way. Good luck with the send you beast. 💪💪
Stefano grazie di questa serie, veramente. La sto guardando giorno dopo giorno con gli occhi lucidi, sentire la fatica che richiede ogni millimetro é una grande emozione. E grazie anche a chi sta editando i video, stupendi
Wow the new beta also looks so beautiful! Glad the new beta (by the looks of it) didn’t change the value / look / feel / difficulty of the route. Nicely done Stephano! You have the heart of a warrior ! Keep at it!
The Intro was hilarious and the production value just keeps getting better with every video. Che grande, Stefano! (And everyone who's working on the videos:D)
Stefano, thank you so much for sharing your experience and beta and everything related to this project. It is eye-opening, very intriguing and inspiration. Crossing my fingers that you send soon!

Is it most effective ingested or rubbed into the cheeks like a salve?

It's so cool to have Adam commenting on Stefano's progress and beta. 🤩
I think overall the commentary is absolutely beautifully put together in this video.
Nicely done, fun to see a range of methods fitting everyone's style in 3m worth of climbing 😅
Also a well put together video, great job
The most important question is if you invited Stefano to the cellar?

Seems like it´s cut at that moment. If not, really funny. Coming to the point.
@@TheToxicdieter yes it’s cut
Litteraly calling, Pete Whittaker, the guy who wrote the book about jaming, to ask for tips about jaming, is an incredible privilege!
I don't know what you mean: Its easy! Just climb 9b+ and he will take your calls xD
Pete also tried out the jamming part of Silence, so I guess Stefano was specifically asking for the beta he used.
I''m so happy to see Pete make a cameo here! Not taking anything away from Stefano & Adam, obviously!

This series is incredible. Absolutely some of the best climbing content on youtube. Hands down (feet first).

Bro what is this production quality? This series is on a totally different level! Keep it up!
Watching Stefano try it truly puts the difficulty of this climb in perspective. Absolutely incredible effort!
Potentially the best intro to a climbing video on RUclips
Absolutely loving watching the progress and having Adam Ondra their makes it a brilliant watch
Really love seeing the longer unedited clips of stefano working out how to do it, or of him climbing, like you did in this video.
