😓😓😓😓😓🙏
For people needing to google this guy, he is 1) a world class mountaineer, climber and skier (he didn't just climb Mount Everest, he skied down it) and 2) one of, if not THE, best mountaineering photographers/filmmakers alive right now. He can not only keep pace with some of the worlds strongest rock and ice climbers, he can film them - artistically! - while doing everything they they do just as skilfully. His first documentary film is called Meru and he filmed a lot of the footage ad hoc while part of a team trying to climb a coveted mountain face in the Himalayas, and since then he and his directing partner made an oscar-winning film called Free Solo about Alex Honnold, one of the best and probably most famous rock climbers in the world, climbing a 2,300 metre rockface with zero ropes or safety equipment. Jimmy Chin is really, really cool.
alex is a god
Just for accuracy sake, I don’t know if I would say he can do everything they can do but with a camera
El cap is not 2,300 meters tall
@@nathangiannini3282 You are right it's 2,307: El Capitan, byname El Cap, mountain in Yosemite National Park, east-central California. One of the park’s most notable landmarks, the granite monolith features nearly vertical walls and stands 7,569 feet (2,307 metres) above sea level and towers some 3,600 feet (1,100 metres) over the western end of Yosemite Valley.. Source Britannia
@@NoahRoach9214 he can do a lot of it, I think the point is that he can reach places and get shots that other film makers aren’t often able to get because he is experienced in a bunch of extreme sports.
unassumingly one of the planet's biggest badasses. Dude skied down Mount Everest after summitting it.
"I'm gonna climb it!"
*Does*
"Ah.. now, I'm gonna ski down it!"
As a DP of 12 years thank you for giving kudos to how important we are to a film production. Love how you emphasise on how we insist on getting stuff not necessarily in the script or production schedules. It gets a lot of people frustrated but makes for better films!
such a cool perspective--as someone who is a world class athlete/cinematographer/director/photographer--he literally knows all the different perspectives of each shot
Jimmy Chin is such a legend.
Gosh, this man has one of the most soothing and pleasing voices I've ever heard
Indeed. I find its not just his voice. After watching Free Solo, 14 Peaks, and Meru, I would say he's a treasure of a human being. I'm sure the accomplishments he's been a part of owe a great deal to the equilibrium that comes across in his voice. . So well measured in unbelievably stressful circumstances.
Jimmy is the man! One of the best breakdowns of the year.
Did you not hear him ramble about 127 hours and never actually say anything meaningful
Jimmy Chin is the coolest. Totally blown away by him ever sense I watched Meru.
One of the few people that can be justified in his criticism. The dude is a LEGEND.
My family and I know Jimmy personally and I'm really good friends with his niece. Really awesome guy!!
Jimmy is one of the best in the game. His films Free Solo and The Rescue are the best of their genre. Cool to hear his perspectives on these classic scenes.
Awesome breakdown, Jimmy Chin's insight is brilliant.
Love this guy ! His photography book was the best Xmas gift I got this year ❤️
He’s a Professional Climber/Photographer just in case y’all didn’t know what he was breaking down. Had to look him up. 🙄
Check out Meru, thats when I found him, bloody legend
It's the first line in the description.
Bad title name. Should have specified that. I thought I was watching a survival expert and he was just doing a really bad job at the interview.
This was really interesting. Different but so informative.
And his voice is really soothing super-lovely to listen to.
yall should do more break downs with cinematographers/directors/etc
Yeah so then all the comments are like, "who tf is that" lol I totally agree with you, btw, just saying thats what would probably happen
Does Jimmy have his own Masterclass!? So many great tips on how to shoot in the wilderness..
Actually yes, I believe he does.
He does indeed
He did an amazing job filming Alex Honnold. Free Solo was amazing.
LOVE the breakdowns.
We have all been waiting for this one
Dude crushed it with free solo
Jimmy! Besides Alex Handhold's breakdowns, have never clicked faster
Jimmy Chin...yeah dude!!!!
such an epic filmmaker & person !
Into the Wild was the book that got me interested in this area.
My hero Jimmy Chin!
Loved watching him 🧡
Nice touch to end on Leave No Trace. Be gentle out there. Leave only footprints (if that), take only pictures.
This is great content!
Jimmy Chin is the man!
Good vid thanks 🙏
I like how the thumbnail is Jimmy Chin pointing to his actual chin
Jimmy Chin and Conrad Anker review mountaineering scenes in movies??
Jimmy Chin, _aka _*_"Jimmy the Chin"_*
It was destiny - he was *_born_* to bear that name.
Just like _Vincent "the Chin" Gigante._ 😎
I wonder when they ask me to do the breakdown for mediocre office job enviroments.
Into the Wild was written by his mentor, Jon Krakaur.
Just imagine trying to make one of these films 50+years ago where there was no digital or batteries. That's truly tough film making.
Chin is the real Daredevil.
Crazy question, love the flannel shirt , mind sharing what brand it is??
I want to know this too, did you find out, thought logically it might be Northface but haven’t found anything.
Duluth Trading has something similar to it, with the vivid blue, but Duluth's is a flannel shirt jacket, and has a more solid yellow, vs his is not a jacket, and is faded yellow or beige. He is sponsored by North Face. So another possibility is it might be one of theirs.
2/7 scenes were survival. The rest were just beautiful shots. Isn't this the wrong kind of clips to break down for this awesome guy?...
hes a director
r/whoosh
He isn't a survivalist, he's an alpinisit and a photographer/videographer/director
Title says clearly "Epic Nature Scenes"..
....No?
did they change the title of the video?
Jimmy Chin is awesome!!
Man. So many people never watched Free Solo huh?
No greater legend than this guy. He survived an avalanche for effs sake
Free solo ❤️
nice shirt! whats the brand?
2:57 fun fact: The Revenant was filmed entirely in natural light. A lot of people quit.
Maybe clarify that this is about cinematography and not an evaluation of the reality of the survival scenes??
Cool shirt, Jimmy.
Y’all should do cowboys with western movies or tv shows (like Yellowstone)👀👀👀👀👀
every dude that ever stepped in Fort Collins for more than 15 seconds talks like this
Ayy Jimmy! Good host
I think this one was particularly informed, because he knows the real situations, but also understands the priorities of filming something that looks really cool, at the expense of it "being real." I stopped watching a lot of these, because of the insistence of anything in them being real. if you only want real, don't watch movies.
Revenant was great
They should have shown him the movie Buried.
Do a 10 things Steven rinnela can’t live without
Kind of a weird episode, tbh. You usually have person who does thing breaking down scenes of thing. I had to look up who Jimmy is because you didn't have him say what he does. I appreciate and enjoyed watching this, but why did you not title it, 'DP Jimmy Chin breaks down filming in extreme environment scenes'. Because that's what's going on and it's awesome but your title is misleading because by the third vignette, we're all wondering what all this has to do with survival.
They say who he is in the description though.
Is this a breakdown of survival or photography? Because I’m hella confused 😐
He didn't break down survival scenes, he broke down the mpvie techniques in survival scenes
my biggest flex is that my mom dated him in highschool
What's the difference between a fire in a cave and a fire in an igloo?
carleton alum 😤
survival is limited, just shots of movies in nature
Lol @ anybody thinking their filming conditions were the same as Meru. They were not.
So is he a director or some bear grylls??
Real Cop or Real Life Firefighter break down police scenes or fire scenes.
Thought he was suppose to break down survival scenes? He's talking more about photography than survival 😂
Click bait.
Same. Why make it about "survival scenes" if he's gonna talk mostly about cinematography?
@@theoccasionalmoonlight4050 I mean this is what he shoots, he's not just any DP/director. I'm more critical about the fact that they didn't mention that at the beginning of the video, because obviously everyone unfamiliar with him is gonna assume he's a survival expert.
hes a director
That might be because he is a photographer lol
NATURE
It's so gross how they introduce him as a "film director". 🤦♂️
Find me that flannel 😅
what brand the flannel is?
@@desmondwang4391 not sure closest I've found was a $70 one
Did anyone find out the brand ?
Does Jimmy Chin really not know what Petra is?
All he said about The Beach, was the ethics of leaving an area as it was, with no disruption. 💩
3:27 his nails are so white
Jimmy is a god whom I admire, so don't take this the wrong way. Do any of you fans know the timing of this vid? Was he coming off a rough project? He looks a bit haggard.
Kinda ......... you know ........... like .......... you know
Can y'all do former presidents break down presidential movies? Obama would be good at this.
This guy needs to go on joe rogan! He's got a wealth of knowledge and experience that would make a 3 hr podcast fascinating. 👌
Watch Free Solo. absolutely amazing.
*if I gain 375 more subs and I will jump into Jake Paul’s next fight!🤝*
No
So, I guess filmmaking is challenging
Maybe change the title? Really misleading. Interesting video but it doesn't really line up with your title.
Is he a survival expert or a cinematographer?
both. also a climber and filmmaker.
Misleading... I wanted survival evaluation, not cinematography. Forget this thing.
ukraine
He's talking about filmmaking not about what they are actually doing. Not too good.
Jimmy Chin has many talents but he's not a survivalist
He is a great filmmaker but this video was pretty lame.
Boring. Discussing lighting, camera angles. What happened to the survival aspect?
Into the wild's Christopher McCandless just didn't seem very intelligent.
Probably the first rather boring break down (but surely the first totally mislabeled one..)
Worst breakdown ever. Totally thought I was going to watch something different, turned into film studies 1010.
You know there is actual survival movies right?
