I saw the adding in screws as just trying to be the best hosts they could be. Like it's "okay" if it breaks when they're using it, but they want to make 100% sure it doesn't happen when Magnus is on.
10:45 Adding screws is most likely a hospitality thing. The worst possible thing they could do for a guest is to not make it as safe for you as they possibly could, so please do not take offense because I am certain they do not intend anything remotely close. Think of it as a "better safe than sorry" situation. As always, amazing video, nice vibes, and incredible climbing 💚
As soon as someone doesn't get that it's a joke, the whole thread is going to turn into people insufferably pointing out the same thing over and over again. Edit: Wait it's already happening to someone! lol. There were 2 of them, but now I only see the .jpg guy.
I think this is even more true considering he didn't say it directly to Magnus. The Japanese are famous for giving false compliments, but in this case he's clearly just discussing with his wife
Please tell me there's an Akiyo-centered video in the pipe. She led the japanese team for so long! 21 gold medals, 68 WC medals in total and a bronze Olympic medal, IMO she is the biggest legend in the room!
The most dominant climber is janja garnbret but she is Slovenian, and has blonde hair. She currently has 42 worldcup wins, 8 world championship wins, and won the Olympics
@@alwaysjarron6260 That pink (green, purple) haired is Miho Nonaka. She with Akiyo used to compete head to head, and usually Akiyo was slightly better. Miho few years ago get an arm injury, and she didn’t completely recovered since then. Japan team every year brings new amazing climbers so nowadays it is really hard to say who is the best in their team.
@@miroslawkowalski3613 hard to say since janja also dyed her hair pink for a while and looks considerably more american than miho nonaka so that's probably what jarron got confused with (the flag colours are also red white and blue if we're really giving jarron the benefit of the doubt). The reason Akiyo Noguchi has 21 wins is because she is 9 years older than Garnbret and was therefore able to amass quite a few before janja began to dominate. Even then she is absolutely a force to be reckoned with, one of the goats.
I believe the facility was used to be Akiyo’s family’s milk farm, and then her dad remodeled one of the barns to a climbing gym for Akiyo to practice. Training resources were limited back in the days when climbing was not popular in Japan. That’s why her success makes her a pioneer and legend. Later she got sponsored to build this climbing facility to train for olympic.
They dont have any limited resources anymore, apparently.. They have some very expensive equipment around if you have a sharp eye. Those weird speakers in the gym, cos t 100k+ usd alone. Plus in another video I saw they also have some very expensive cars (Audi S8, Porches..)
Thank you!! This collab is a dream come true! Magnus is the reason I started climbing and Tomoa is the reason I started watching competition climbing. Only thing that could have made it better is if the legendary Ai Mori stopped by for some lead.
Tomoa and Akiyo's climbing gym never gets less insane. It's supposedly seen as one of the top gyms in Japan, except it's not a commercial gym, it's just their private one. The TAMY channel is definitely a recommended watch too. Their videos are pretty good and it's nice that they subtitle them all in English too, despite only being a small channel.
@@androgynousmaggot9389 you'd be surprised how much collaboration exists during competitions. many times the climbres will even discuss the routes together, give tips, etc.
The quality of content you are continually giving us is nothing short of incredible. Not just the big name colabs, but the quality of videos, the effort that goes into them, the clear passion for sharing this sport with so many people... keep it up man! Simple and excellent.
And also an Olympic medalist.... but here she was kind of an afterthought. Not surprised though, Magnus almost never features women in his videos (except for when he filmed a date...).
Classic feminism on display here. Huge language barrier + massively cut around 15 minute video of a probably 4 hour visit = "I know more about their interaction than they do"
@@PinkMonkeyBird what does feminism have to do op's comment? Is acknowledging a women's talent and skill and wishing for more of that to be on camera bad to you?
I think Magnus it's worried about the views and obviously he is easier to "sell" in a video than she, it's the climbing Word that has to give more attention to women, not a Magnus problem
I miss her in IFSC competition so much. She was one of the kind. Even if Janja was more successful it was always interesting to see Akiyo different, often more elegant, beta.
The minute details in how he gets his weight so close to the wall with internal hip rotation is mind blowing… and using the leverage of gripping the wall to further internally rotate. It reminds me of snowboarding how we can rotate our femurs very powerfully in the hip socket because they’re locked into the snowboard but here the “locked in” feeling is just coming from perfectly placed weight. Mind blowing
Awesome video all around. A perfect example of what makes the climbing community so awesome. Easy way to have fun, be social, build each other up, & so much more. So cool to see Akiyo, & Tomoa here. Will definitely check out their videos! Thanks for doing what you do Magnus!
this video was an awesome reminder that although magnus stopped competing a long time ago and he always talks about how far he is from his best shape, he's not some ancient relic. He's still insanely strong even in super modern climbing styles.
He's so good at modern bouldering it feels like a waste that he isn't competing but simultaneously I just want him to be happy lol. And it would suck if he just kept competing and never did youtube. I probably wouldn't even know his name. So I'm grateful that he chose what he did. We got the good timeline.
Not mentioning her in the title was faux pas. Particularly that she had been competing in the same era when Magnus did, and technically she is still top of the top. Her retirement was way too soon!
Wow, they really did an excellent job at calibrating the boulders to be just hard enough to clearly be a real challenge for Magnus, but also just easy enough to really make him feel good. World class skills all around.
seeing this has affirmed my way of climbing. my dad has owned a gym all my life and seeing the best climbers in the world say that technique is important helps me. i used to boulder and focus on strength but not that i don’t climb as much as i should i rely on tech and it is good to see how humble the japanese are. i watch food videos as well and they are so nice and happy. i love these guys. glad you made a vid. makes me want to climbe more again.
That whole section of climbing with that music is art, both from the "performers" and from the whole production. A film director has a much easier task, just direct it the way it should be. This is basically reverse engineering what fits to the content. Really good work!
It was probably Magnus, he edits a lot of his own, he's had editors before but they usually don't last. I'm not sure though he might have one right now. I just want to give him credit honestly because he taught himself how to do it very fast, and he's pretty freaking good. Knows a lot about cameras with a quick learning curve too. You should watch his early stuff it's really interesting to see the progression. I like both new and old content honestly.
@@auroralane6903This one is edited by Markus. Magnus isn't doing his own editing at the moment. He said that it just takes up too much time so he's passed it on to Markus for the moment. But yes, I agree - Magnus' editing is amazing.
You've been on a great run of videos lately, Magnus. It's evident you've reached a new level of comfort in front of the camera. What I appreciate most about you is that you not only get into the mindset of your subjects, but into their shoes as well! You hold your own against the top climbers in the world in a way nobody else on RUclips can. The breadth of your skill and your adaptability is admirable and makes for very entertaining content!
I can't emphasise enough how incredibly good these videos are. The editing, sound and picture quality are simply top notch. The content is so convincing that you don't really notice it at first. Simply great video and yet another super great collaboration. Thank you!!!
Amazing content. I could've watched hours of this easily. I'm sure Mr. Tomoa and his crew were busy as usual, but I'm grateful for them finding the time to host Magnus. And Magnus, thank you as always for high quality content.
I feel like it was a nice gesture tho! They didnt want Magnus to get hurt on their own boulders I would imagine!! But with the langage barrier it probably wasnt easy to smoothly explain it without it being a bit awkard haha
My thoughts exactly. They didn't want the lack of a screw to be the reason their guest gets hurt. If I owned a gym, I would be setting new routes all the time with minimal screws; They just wanted to make sure it's extra sturdy for their guest.
So incredibly wholesome to see some of the best climbers lifting each other up to become even better, sharing tips and experience without worrying about ppl "stealing their secrets". I guess Magnus has that effect on people.
Really glad you did that video with Felix, I've been watching a lot more of your videos and other climbing stuff on youtube since then. You've motivated me to start working out again, and even eating healthier. Usually I'd feel gross with myself when I see fitter people doing amazing things, but your videos have been nothing but inspiring!
Excellent solid and entertaining climbing content (no gimmicks or annoying clickbait titles). And kudos for Magnus being humble and showing us the rare climbs that he cannot flash. It’s refreshingly honest in today’s Insta edited world.
Best video that I have seen in a long time. I would love to see a "Director's cut" with the full 2 hours of climbing. It is amazing to see Magnus explaining why the Japanese are so good and the feedback from Tomoa was so insightful! I want to see more of Magnus and Team Japan
this just shows a WHOLE different level of climbing, everyone knows magnus is incredible and they are still miles ahead and not even stronger than him by the looks of it. incredible couple and set up. way underrated.
Magnus just out here proving to all the modern comp climbers that if he born maybe ten years later than he was born, he'd be a serious bouldering threat XD
He'd still have a good shot considering Jakob Schubert is 33 and still competing at the top level, recently making the bouldering finals at Salt Lake City.
I dont know much but as far as my understanding of stereotypes go.. you should not trust the compliments of a Japanese person unless you are close friends or something. It is probably just politeness@@giannistek1
@@avlinrbdig5715 What a weird thing to say. You can clearly see that he said it without thinking much because it caught him by surprise how well Magnus did. Can't get more honest than that.
Whoever scored / picked and arranged the music tracks for this video did a phenomenal job. Also the climbing... the chemistry... Magnus's humility... all great. Thank you for making this!
Your japan videos have truly been amazing! First your chemestry with Felix was so fun to watch and Tomoa seems to be such a great guy! Your collabs is such a pleasure to watch. Keep it going man!
Funny coming to this video after seeing the competition one first, and wondering, 'Is this what gave him the confidence he needed to sign up?' You're stronger than you think, for sure! But I love the honesty when you say the screws messed with your confidence, haha. Awesome video as usual! Your story-telling is strong, and getting better and better.
Babe wake up new Magnus video! I can't believe this guy got to collab with literally one of the best climbers in the world and Pewds back to back. This guy's a behemoth, srsly!!
These guys have Vivid Giya speakers just for background music in their gym? Now that's a flex! Great tour of their facility whilst climbing, Mangus! Amazing training grounds and skills.
I don't usually comment but i was so shocked to see my two favorite climbers, climbing together and I had to say i didnt see this coming. Thank you so much!
For some reason, this was a deeply satisfying video to watch, I don’t know if it was the chemistry or just the joy that Magnus had That really came through on the camera. Either way it was awesome.
It felt like watching a rocky montage on that last climb, the difference in confidence was palpable and it made it easy to imagine a World Cup Magnus with a little more concentrated practice right after Tomoa said that
Really like watching Magnus climb with very, very strong climbers. I also like how often he ends up doing a breathless outro because he's just finished a climb.
Tomoa is the next iteration of super climber. Magnus as usual was a perfect gentleman. These collabs are so interesting and filled with quality content. Thanks Magnus
I have been binging your videos lately, gonna do a boulder beginners course on Monday, super excited! Your videos helped me so much finding motivation to start something new, so inspiring!
The sportsmanship and friendliness in your videos always puts this massive smile on my face. Thanks for making videos like this and the hundreds of others you've done with athletes who just want to share growth and joy and support.
Having a couple that share the same love for their job makes me so happy. They get to enjoy what the like to do the most with the person they like most.
Yesssssss. One trip to Japan and we get a collab with PewDiePie and Tomoa? So cool. I know others have said it already, but seeing a video with Janja would be superb.
I love how climbing is one of those individual sports where you can see both men and women accomplish amazing things. Magnus casually mentioning the number of Akiho's 21 Bouldering World Cup wins is awesome. While most sports heavily favor men, climbing/bouldering is one of those sports where you have a lot more equality. It reminds of how Lynn Hill was the first person to free Yosemite's - The Nose in 1993. Women absolutely crush it in the sport. I remember seeing one of the girls on the Jr. climbing team at our gym crush everyone on both the bouldering and lead wall. I really hope more women (my sisters/daughters/nieces) see these types of positive examples and find inspiration to push themselves beyond any and all stereotypes. Thank you, Magnus! This was a really fun collaboration.
Most difficult lead route done by men: 9c. Most difficult lead route done by women: 9b+. Men are usually stronger, but women are more flexible and have better balance. The natural diversity of rock really balances this out well.
@@blarfroer8066 Well, there's always the debate that climbing grades are completely subjective. And a 9b/9b+ climbed by a woman might actually feel like a 9c for her due to the distance between holds and that. But of course no woman is going to dare to upgrade a route graded previously by a man. Not saying that's the case. Just pointing out that climbing grades are completely subjective to one's skills and strengths.
I saw the adding in screws as just trying to be the best hosts they could be. Like it's "okay" if it breaks when they're using it, but they want to make 100% sure it doesn't happen when Magnus is on.
I agree. They want him to be safe, especially if he hits the hold in a weird way. Japanese paradoxically treat outgroup better than ingroup at times

I dont know much but as far as my understanding of stereotypes go.. you should not trust the compliments of a Japanese person unless you are close friends or something. It is probably just politeness@@giannistek1
@@avlinrbdig5715 What a weird thing to say. You can clearly see that he said it without thinking much because it caught him by surprise how well Magnus did. Can't get more honest than that.
Whoever scored / picked and arranged the music tracks for this video did a phenomenal job.
Also the climbing... the chemistry... Magnus's humility... all great. Thank you for making this!
Loved the video! Would have loved to see Akiyo try the boulders as well, she is so talented!
Magnus is a humble guy! Just soaking up all knowledge from amazing climbers like this couple!
Your japan videos have truly been amazing! First your chemestry with Felix was so fun to watch and Tomoa seems to be such a great guy! Your collabs is such a pleasure to watch.
Keep it going man!
I don’t climb but I found this incredibly interesting. That facility is absolutely mind blowing. He makes it look completely effortless.
Yay! Was really looking forward to this collaboration! So fun to see Akiyo in the video too!
Funny coming to this video after seeing the competition one first, and wondering, 'Is this what gave him the confidence he needed to sign up?' You're stronger than you think, for sure! But I love the honesty when you say the screws messed with your confidence, haha. Awesome video as usual! Your story-telling is strong, and getting better and better.
Babe wake up new Magnus video! I can't believe this guy got to collab with literally one of the best climbers in the world and Pewds back to back. This guy's a behemoth, srsly!!
These guys have Vivid Giya speakers just for background music in their gym? Now that's a flex! Great tour of their facility whilst climbing, Mangus! Amazing training grounds and skills.
Yeah I was coming to check if anyone else commented on this, I believe those are Giya G2 S2 quite casually in the background...
That was awesome!!!! The japanese are so strong, and they were so welcoming. Awesome collab, really. I could watch 8 hours of this in one sitting.
The japan tour is the best videos you've created so far, Magnus! Digger det, vi trenger mer!
This was one of my favourite Magnus videos yet! The level and quality of content keeps going up and up
This is so wholesome to see Magnus learning from these two awesome climbers!
I don't usually comment but i was so shocked to see my two favorite climbers, climbing together and I had to say i didnt see this coming. Thank you so much!
Omg I could have easily watched an hour video of this!
Good to see a proper climbing video back on the main channel! We need more of this
For some reason, this was a deeply satisfying video to watch, I don’t know if it was the chemistry or just the joy that Magnus had That really came through on the camera. Either way it was awesome.
Tomoa is a climbing god. I have been waiting a long time for this collab. Hopefully you get to spend some more time with this amazing climbing couple!
They are such a powerful couple! Sooo nice watching him climbing and you also nailed it Magnus.
It felt like watching a rocky montage on that last climb, the difference in confidence was palpable and it made it easy to imagine a World Cup Magnus with a little more concentrated practice right after Tomoa said that
Yeah, I just realized that there was an arc to this video. Really really well done! Enjoyable.
Really like watching Magnus climb with very, very strong climbers.
I also like how often he ends up doing a breathless outro because he's just finished a climb.
Just amazing video. I love the enthusiasm they had for Magnus sending the boulders! “He can still compete don’t you think?” 😂😂😂
Tomoa is the next iteration of super climber. Magnus as usual was a perfect gentleman. These collabs are so interesting and filled with quality content. Thanks Magnus
Might be my personal most interesting Magnus video every. that was so cool to watch
I have been binging your videos lately, gonna do a boulder beginners course on Monday, super excited! Your videos helped me so much finding motivation to start something new, so inspiring!
The sportsmanship and friendliness in your videos always puts this massive smile on my face. Thanks for making videos like this and the hundreds of others you've done with athletes who just want to share growth and joy and support.
You inspired me to start bouldering, thank you so much for your content!
It's crazy to think about just how physically capable top athletes like Tomoa and Akiyo are. It blows my mind.
Was not expecting to see this collab, but SO stoked about it
Echoing others in wishing this was a much longer video. Awesome watch!
Iv been waiting for this collaboration. Tamy climbing and magnus
Great video! Tomoa's perfect blend of power and technique is simply stunning to watch, and it was great to watch you all having fun!
Thank you Magnus. This gym is just sick :) Watching you and Tomoa bouldering was a pleasure.
Having a couple that share the same love for their job makes me so happy. They get to enjoy what the like to do the most with the person they like most.
Yesssssss. One trip to Japan and we get a collab with PewDiePie and Tomoa? So cool.
I know others have said it already, but seeing a video with Janja would be superb.
Really enjoyed watching this. Thank you Magnus! I’m going to the Olympic Games. Will see Tomoa there!
I love how climbing is one of those individual sports where you can see both men and women accomplish amazing things. Magnus casually mentioning the number of Akiho's 21 Bouldering World Cup wins is awesome. While most sports heavily favor men, climbing/bouldering is one of those sports where you have a lot more equality. It reminds of how Lynn Hill was the first person to free Yosemite's - The Nose in 1993.
Women absolutely crush it in the sport. I remember seeing one of the girls on the Jr. climbing team at our gym crush everyone on both the bouldering and lead wall. I really hope more women (my sisters/daughters/nieces) see these types of positive examples and find inspiration to push themselves beyond any and all stereotypes.
Thank you, Magnus! This was a really fun collaboration.
Can’t agree more
Most difficult lead route done by men: 9c. Most difficult lead route done by women: 9b+. Men are usually stronger, but women are more flexible and have better balance. The natural diversity of rock really balances this out well.
@@blarfroer8066 Well, there's always the debate that climbing grades are completely subjective. And a 9b/9b+ climbed by a woman might actually feel like a 9c for her due to the distance between holds and that. But of course no woman is going to dare to upgrade a route graded previously by a man.
Not saying that's the case. Just pointing out that climbing grades are completely subjective to one's skills and strengths.

Men are naturally stronger/faster/bigger than women which is why they're better at sports, it has nothing to do with 'equality'.
Tamoa taking a jumping leap onto the smooth side of a dual texture hold is like nightmare fuel for me. This video is awesome on so many levels
Amazing collab, I once saw him climbing in Paris and that was completely insane
Did you go to Team Boulder Arena? Or met him in Climb Up? 😀I went to the qualifiers only, but it was amazing to see all the japanese participants 🤩
@@luquinhasleiva Saw him at climb up
This was so nice! I wish it was longer!
Always interesting to see these top climbers. We've spent years watching Magnus be amazing, but it seems there's definitely levels beyond him.
