Internationally renowned ice climber Will Gadd takes ice climbing to the next level by scaling the frozen sections of the world’s largest flowing waterfall, Niagara Falls. Gadd, a world-renowned ice climber and paraglider from Alberta, Canada, has traveled to the ends of the earth to find the world’s most challenging climbs, but Niagara Falls, one of his home country‘s most iconic landmarks, is a lifelong mission that he previously thought impossible...until now.

Niagara Falls is so photogenic! It looks even more fantastic from there. Great job, Will!
People are incredible! LOVE these kind of videos and stories. Great job!!
amazing!
RedBull always has the best music playing with videos
Very cool! But wait did he drink a red bull before he climbed this?
I'm surprised someone hasn't climbed the falls before. Nice work Will!
yeah I did this in Call of Duty Modern warfare 2, I'll never forget it hehe
The courage is outstanding! Truly a master of his skill 😮
Will has always been out there in his thinking and doing, good on you Will.
majestic raging element and a daredevil, aspiring to conquer it..it's a stunner indeed
good choice with the m83 background music
astounding, as usual from anything "RED BULL"!

Canadian Will Gadd - Ice Climbing on Frozen Niagara Falls. You got to watch this.
It took him over an hour to accomplish this feat. The first person ever to do this.
#FrozenNiagaraFalls #NiagaraFalls #IceClimbing
It took him only 8 months to get the permit to do this stunt. And this guy is an expert ice climber :)
Annette M Salmon Perhaps it's because Walenska need to get 2 permits instead of 1 ;)
*with Sarah Hueniken.
BayviewFinch Thanks
Annette M Salmon Apparently, Hueniken, 34, who spent hours huddled in an ice cave part way up the route to avoid being hit with chunks of ice, did the climb too, behind Gadd.
Я верю в мужество отчаянных парней! 40 метров ввех! Только кошки и ледорубы! И наполовину замерзший водопад!
I believe in the the courage of desperate guys! Thanks Will Gadd !!!
Far out! He likes it close to the edge...
This is unreal Damn what an amazing accomplishment that's insane
Whatever you do, don't let it go
Wow...amazing !!
In the east a lot of new ice climbs will be accomplished this winter. Will get yourself to Lake Willaby in Vermont.
браво!
Молодец!!!
That was just like so out of the world crazy is he a stunt artist in real life
or are trill saker for fun any one i still say he out of the world crazy cool.
Just imagine the focus needed to climb it. Very impressive.
Proud to be canadian yeahhhhhhhh
Cooooooool
Amazing, awesome wow!

I REALLY want to get into this sport
I want this song!!
Круто, очень круто ...
pretty cool :)
I need me a Red Bull right now
Only 72 years after Sir Edmund Hillary first climbed Mt. Everest was the Niagara Falls climbed. This must be ten times harder to climb than everest, way to go!
Not even close.
Everest is probably harder than this at least a dozen fold.
yes sir, I'm sorry it's hard to sense my sarcasm!
curtyuiop Was that sarcasm?
SWI complete sarcasm sir, this easy climb is nothing but a promotion for red bullshit.
curtyuiop Yup.
Hey Will, did you notice whos watching you ascend.....Looks like one of the crystal skulls.... I was there a week before you went.....maybe 10 people were there....now I went last weekend after you made the news ....about 1000 people ...YOU DID WELL MY FRIEND! CONGRATS!
Just that skull has me bugged a bit! LOL
AMAZING SHOTS! incredible video!
*Very "cool"* HAHA
Amazingggg, i am mighty fuckin jealous! congrats brother!
Fuck that, I climbed Niagara Falls when it wasn't frozen.
eeeee gadd!
This made me want to buy a six pack of Red Bull!
My anxiety would be through the fuckin rough . Really beautiful though .
It's a terrific achievement, but it would be more properly termed ice climbing next to the falls, i.e. it looks like he climbed the cliff below Goat Island.
Tienen_2
Forzen. A MADISON
this climb was actually first done in 1993 by myself and 2 friends with no equipment
How do I live in Niagara Falls Canada and had no clue this went on?!
1 minute clip doesn't do the justice...
Did he get arrested after that or did he get permission? I'm just wondering because when people go down the falls - they get arrested. Very nice job dude. It looked really fun.
Nice. I'm surprised he wasn't wearing more protection on his face, though.
cool super bowl commercial.
That's amazing! It must give you some rush when you do things like that!!
What's the craziest thing you guys have all done?
uhhh
Crazy! Ice looked too soft
cool
and my son won't throw out the garbage 'cause there's ice and it's slippery......Now I'm gonna make him watch this .
That Guy is CRAZY !! Why in the hell would he try to climb falling Water and ICE for? What if he fell between those sharp Jagged ICE and wasn't found fast enough or if he was ripped in to shreds.. LORD Please watch over that knucklehead and help keep him safe always.. That would simply be terrible, I'm so glad he made it.. 🌎 Thank Goodness we don't have that much falling water here in the Republic of Texas 🐎 !!
81 people thought he was gonna sing "Let it Go"
Am I the only one part expecting when he climbs in first person for the ice to break and him have to hold on with one of the icepicks like in that MW2 mission? ok, ill go away now...
wow i didn't know you could jump the boarder that way...?
Was Castle Black on top? He might be a wildling
Day After Tomorrow
it's like he's climbing The Wall on The Game of Thrones..
Get me this song! I cant find it anywhere and I assume it is because Redbull is the owners of this song!
Coulda sworn that was M83.
Wow, he climbed Niagara Falls in less than a minute, somewhat impressive...
So, this is cold also....Awesome though.
Ya, was down there for about 2 hours the other night. Stunning ice - www.flickr.com/photos/_zprime/16354200156/ & www.etsy.com/listing/220646636/creme-niagara-falls-usa
Where can I find the full song?
Holy shiet. If that was a niagara, he would definitely fall.
no gopro? gopro should sponsor this
remind anyone of game of thrones
I wonder if maybe the reason this video only shows Will Gadd, is because he is actually sponsored by Red Bull, and she isn't...
Why?
And how many pitches and screws?
Will Gadd seems to have done this rather quickly. Yet I could find no report on how long it took. I watched his interview on Anderson Cooper, but it apparently didn't occur to Anderson Cooper to ask this question either. So how long did it take exactly?
brucenator Most likely took a few hours. The video is obviously edited shorter
It sounds like he says "Ay ma nigga" in the beginning
Amazing video.Anyone knows who performed this song?Only have title but no author,looks something like m83 style but found nothing.
Sad
How did he get down????
BFD. It looks like a WI5 to me Gadd is just taking a harder line to try and make it a 6. The only reason it hasn't been climbed is because it rarely forms and it's not legal, at least not until recently. Not that Gadd isn't one of the better climbers out there, but this is all hype.
How does that water freeze...
water+cold=really cold water and really cold water+ more cold= ice
I meant the falls because its always flowing
Dimitrius096 I believe it's the similar to the way an icicle forms.
A thin layer freezes where it starts, then another thin layer freezes on that, eventually the ice moves down the face.
It doesn't all freeze at once like a puddle on it's side.
Its the spray that freezes and slowly accumulates , check out videos of people throwing buckets of water out of their houses in freezing temperature and you'll get a good idea
the fences on the Canadian side is frozen too because of those spray.
Getting down is much easier.
soundtrack?
someone link me the song please i cannot find it ? would really appropriate it thanks!
***** a description of only the name, but there is no author
the artist is M83, redbull uses his music for many videos and commercials
Jacob Phillips is the whole track anywhere online?
***** its in more than this video, just want to know if it will ever come out
Wat if he fell?
