Simple but descriptive. I wouldn’t be too upset if those were my last words. I’d be dead, so probably not much going on in my head, but you know what I mean.
First off, Brad is a legend and Alex doing the "Oh Jeez" is classic Alex trying to help him shake off the scare because the soloer in him is always on.
Coming across these kinds of folks when I was a youngster was by far the most impressive thing I’ve ever witnessed. There are a tiny percentage of humans who are absolutely beyond what most of us consider the limit of what a human can do. The grip strength is amazing. The peace of mind is an atmosphere that surrounds them. These are humble happy folk who are, in my opinion, the ones pushing forward the pinnacle of human excellence. These are the best of us.
This is one of the greatest climbing docs I've ever seen. It's so fun and the friendly competition vibe made it something special. I watch it like once a month (reelrock 14 if anyone's interested, nose speed record). This was my first intro to Brad and he seemed like such an interesting, genuine dude. Sad that he's gone.
Really bummed I never got to like properly meet him and shake his hand. I know so many people that knew him and hold him in high regard. Also his climbing accomplishments just stand out as like so cool and would to do one of them in my life.
@@TheSubieFan I don't know if that's true that it could happen to anyone. That's not really giving the situation the truth. It was Brad's rush and how he just was that led to it. Complacency in the systems and safety, in full pursuit of being fast, soloing and just climbing as free as he wanted. His soul was truly unique, but let's not let the situation of his death not fully rest in his own hands. In his rush to climb more they simul rapped with no knots right off the rope. RIP Brad.❤
Right I love the juxtaposition. "Woah Jeezy peetes, looks like I almost succumbed to my questionable choices and tumbled to my death, scattered to the rocks below!"
I mean it is really like that in those instances, you like realize how close but you are fine so your body is fucking pumping and you are ready for war and your mind gets calmed by that relatively speaking, it’s only like after that goes away and later you will really be like “fuuuuck man” and feel it more. I feel like I’ve done this before like cliff jumping or climbing trees, like one time I’m at least 50 ft up and break a small branch start falling but like going in slow Mo pushing aside 2 small branches and wrapping on a big one to pull me back to the tree and swing back to the middl and just sit for a second, look down and realize I’m still like 40 ft up and it just doesn’t feel real. It’s like a quick time event in a video game but I hit all the buttons barley😂
Not exactly. That was a long fall, but there's a reason why rock-climbers bring all that gear with them. Every climber has taken many falls. Maybe not 50 foot whippers, but those two are some of the most experienced, expert climbers on the planet. They don't place nearly as much protection as the average or even considerably above average climber does. They run it out more and they're aware of the consequences. Still it was a surprise, obviously, for Caldwell but luckily it was a vertical fall in a dihedral. That in itself doesn't negate the possibility of injury.
doesnt look like any gear ripped out if it did u would see it near his knot it was a speed attempt and he was running it out on purpose the wet crack was a surprise same as how derek hersey died
Just to point out to any non-climbers , Tommy Caldwell climbs without his index finger. He lost it in a sawing accident. To still be motivated and to be able to climb at the caliber that he climbs at is insane
I took a lead climbing class years ago and they make you practice falling. So they have you climb to the very top of the wall, the person on belay let's out a few feet of slack on the rope. So nothing it holding you up there at this point besides you holding onto the rocks. And with just your finger tips push off the wall to fall and hope the person on belay is actually attached to the rope lol. It was pretty fun though
These guys are awesome! The man falls 50 feet, which would’ve scared the shit out of most people and most people never would’ve climbed again. But this guy’s responses I just got 50 feet let me go try it again and see if I can do it! Incredible!
Love that awkward moment when you're injured and your buddy says something like "damn dude" and you didn't hear them cleary so they have to repeat themselves, and you're just sitting there in pain feeling dumb now.
True friend. Doesn't even ask if he's ok. Just asks if they got it on film 😂

Heh, it's probably happened... it's good to warn people below or your belayer etc if you fall so it's probably common...
Props to him for just saying that I’d be swearing like a dealer at a auction
That’s a badass presence of mind. When you’re walking through a kitchen you’re supposed to say “BEHIND” so people know you’re there. Safety is cool 😎

Bro just faced death just for his friend to say,”oh jeez” these guys are G’s
More like "Oh Gs" 😂 I'm sorry I had to
Not necessarily death with modern climbing equipment, but you can get pretty hurt by getting slammed into the wall
It's Alex Honnold saying oh jeez so that's pretty much worst case scenario
The guy saying that is the best free Solo climber in the world.
It sounded like Alex?
First off, Brad is a legend and Alex doing the "Oh Jeez" is classic Alex trying to help him shake off the scare because the soloer in him is always on.
Didn't Brad take a 50 foot plus skull crusher right into the granite?
@Eventual-Visitor what a way of asking if someone is dead, and yes the guy being interviewed did die in 2019
*was a legend
To be fair Bradly had his accident in Mexico while rappelling. He was a blast to climb with and IS a legend.

I've heard that money shots often occur after interacting with wet cracks.
that guy saying money shot died climbing these guys have a real passion for this activity
Brad gobright will always be my favorite climber
Rip Brad, one of the most charismatic souls in climbing.

Worked with brad at sender one kids club. He always had the most creative ideas to get them inspired. good dude.

Oh Brad one of the many in this great sport that went way to early. May you rest in peace.
These people are clinically insane and I love it.
Despite many many falls, I never got the hang of just yelling “Falling!” I always ended up saying “Fu-Falling!!!”
😅😂😅
"Take!"
@@seeker296 Take???
The best part of this clip is Brad. His excitement is childlike when he hears that Tommy's brush with death was caught on film. I miss him.
When one of the top rock climbers in the world does a 50 foot Whipper it is a significant occurrence. Glad he's okay.
It was a speed climbing attempt so they were really running it out.
No, it's not. These guys take colossal falls all the time
@@dbarless BS. This was a major mistake because some of his gear didn't hold in the rock. You don't see this often from the best in the world.
doesnt look like any gear ripped out
if it did u would see it near his knot
it was a speed attempt and he was running it out on purpose the wet crack was a surprise same as how derek hersey died
It was the calmly yelled “Falling” for me 😂
These Mr. MEESEEKS are savage
Tommy is the true OG climber legend
Thank god he’s skilled enough he’s ok.
It’s the “falling” for me😂
See Alex that's why you use ropes ❤
theres reasons hes still alive
“Oh jeez you almost died there” *snapping fingers in disappointment*
Brad the nicest guy. Sad he's gone.

Sort of makes you wanna take a 50 foot whipper, eh?
Nope.
Angels working over time with you fellas
woah ok he says haha
When Alex is suprised and sounding scared that means it was extremely scary. Mans literally got no fear
Slipping in a wet crack usually results in a MUCH shorter fall.
They were simul-climbing for the speed record on the nose, so the systems they used were very different from a normal belay
@@partykrew666 ummm, that was meant as a double entendre… nudge nudge wink wink
Sorry about your luck. Dad made sure my falls would be plenty long enough.
Imagine falling to your death and the last thing you hear is "oh jeez" lmao
Even Tommy holds on to the rope as he falls XD
I love how Tommy explains it. His tone is so casual like oops, ahh nothing happened.
Thats some life saving equipment right there. 😮
I love how into it that dude.
That “Falling” was a mix of emotion between oh shit and I trust my equipment.
They are a different breed.
“Money shot” RIP Brad! ❤️❤️
I swear to God, people like Tommy and Alex, are really just built different
“oh geez” the most midwestern thing ive ever heard during a near death experience
Just to point out to any non-climbers , Tommy Caldwell climbs without his index finger. He lost it in a sawing accident. To still be motivated and to be able to climb at the caliber that he climbs at is insane
My name for that is the
"Screaming 1000ft death spiral of doom"
Jee-Golly, Tom-Tom! You almost cracked your noodle.
Rest in peace Brad. You are deeply missed.
I love how he nearly fell to his death, then starts just jumping off the cliff flying around 😂
The malevolent glee when he heard it was on film
This is why Alex Honnold is rare breed of a climber
You do realize he's belaying Tommy in this clip, right? He uses ropes 99% of the time
Ummmm…why?
Because he asked if the climber he was belaying was “ok”?
I took a lead climbing class years ago and they make you practice falling. So they have you climb to the very top of the wall, the person on belay let's out a few feet of slack on the rope. So nothing it holding you up there at this point besides you holding onto the rocks. And with just your finger tips push off the wall to fall and hope the person on belay is actually attached to the rope lol. It was pretty fun though
That safety became the most trustworthy thing on this planet in that moment.
That was cold response man 😅
That’s when you say ‘oh jeez indeed’ lol
I actually held my breath
His reaction is more entertaining than the actual fall lol
How did he manage to yell “falling” once he was on the way down?!! I don’t know what but that’s really impressive.
The real money shot was when Brad Gobright did his own money shot in 2019, falling 980 ft to his death!
"I slipped off wet crack" Means something else where I come from!
Good to see Brad ❤ RIP

I have been rock climbing, and you know you’re safe when you fall,but you’re still scared you’re gonna die.
That's like defcon 11 level freak out from Honnold.
He’s said ma leg !! Lmao
I at first thought he shouted “MONEY!” when he fell.
Tommy caldwell, oceans.
This is the most like rock climber thing I've ever seen and it's great 😂
Great reaction.
And then a ninja just walks right up to the cornerstone store 😂😂
Imagine ur last words being falling 😂😂
Im getting Joel Haver vibes from the reactions 😂😂
I don’t climb, know next to nothing about it and have never seen this guy or channel before but glad dudes ok ❤
