Seeing these collabs between the top athletes of climbing instead of the unhealthy poisonous rivalry we see in alot of other sports is the epitome of being rolemodels for the next generation!
Between Jakob's, Adam's and Stefano's videos and the stuff mellow is dropping on the regular, we're treated to such a high level of content it's climbing heaven 😌
I don’t know who the hell is behind Mammut branding project or marketing or whatever, but getting Ondra on their team and doing those kind of videos is absolutely magic. And they’re doing a brilliant job, because there’s no point of comparison with, for example, Megos videos. Anyway, what an amazing era for sport climbing with Ondra, Seb Bouin, Jakob Schubert, Stefano Ghisolfi and Alex Megos pushing that hard. And girls doing exactly the same
That whipper at @27:00 was bone chilling. My soul would have left my body. Jakob skipped three draws and took rope out to clip overhead. Props to the belayer for catching that.
@@xavierx93 he was taking as fast as he could, and he knows how to use a grigri. It would grab even if it slipped a little if he pulled the rope down (even while slipping). But if he needed to take as much as possible
Me after making my long way to the cave: Oh climbing Guru. What is your adwise to improve to climbing my first 7a? Adam: AAAAAAAAAAH!! AAAAAAH! Me: Can someone translate?
I really respect the honesty of how frustrating it is to try these routes again and again. We all get frustrated with projects and its nice to know that even world class climbers can be just as frustrated but still, eventually, send.
This is the climbing video that resonated with me the most by far. The mental part of having just a couple more tries and knowing full well you just have to stick that one last move is super draining.
Apart from the crazy climbing i LOVED the soundtrack. It sounded like jon hopkins and that is one of the greatest compliments you can give a producer today. The quality from editing, to sounddesign, cinematography and the climbing itself is next level!
What an unreal video/series. 2 titans of sport climbing taking on one of the sickest, hardest lines I’ve ever seen, and capturing it with extremely high quality. We are blessed
The chess position at 14:32 is actually very cool and very sharp, lots of ideas like Qa3 which if black doesn’t give back the bishop leads to a nasty attack
What a truely mindblowing piece of film-making ! I never really realized how enormous this cave is until I saw some of those shots. Bravo ! Can't wait to see how this project Big unravels
This is insane. You and Adam are looking so solid on it and I cannot wait for round two. You and Adam are such huge inspirations and I am so glad you guys have the opportunity to work together on something as awesome as this.
So nice to see 2 wonderful climbers working together in a project like that. Sport climbing is just a so different sport ! Thank you Jakob and Adam for rising up the spirit of sport.
what an amazing time to be alive! being able to witness something like this is mindblowing! > Side note with a prediction: those guys are so modest than once they sent it the will not dare grade the route 9c+ but will setlle for "hard 9c" . Once they are done, come back here and tell me I was wrong ;)
Danke für das super Video! Wir haben it euch mitgezittert, mitgeschwitzt U Daumen gedrückt! Großartige Leistung und echt cool, daß Adam und du das Projekt gemeinsam angegangen seid! Alles Gute weiterhin!
i became a climber because of watching Adam's amazing videos, Jakob fighting in Zillertal and seeing Domen in comps later on, and i keep myself motivated every second i see your videos guys, even when i started climbing at 31. Barely climbing a 6b, but in every try you guys give, i can fell the strength, love and passion you and me have for rock climbing. Thanks a lot for allowing us to see you!
WOW! It was one of the best climbing videos I've ever watched! Everything is adorable: rock, route, landscape, music, atmosphere, and finally climbers. Watching how the best climbers do their job is a great pleasure. Fantastic! I want to see more of that duo! Hopefully, both of you will send this route. I am psyched to watch sending video! Love you guys, and good luck!
Adam, and Jakob! What interesting Biblical names you both have! I urge you to find their meaning. Thank you both for such a beautiful struggle, a beautiful story. I love the route that takes us to excellence. As you both have proved, maybe not yet realized, excellence is a complete matter of the mind. Excellence in climbing combines the mind over the body. You both know this far beyond the masses. There will come a time when the body fails to keep up with the instilled mindset. How you navigate this will wind up being the sum of all your effort, and understanding. I'm so proud of who you guys are and what you've done with your lives! Top notch excellence! Its just that it doesn't stop. When your ready the next step is spiritual humility. You'll have to find that route on your own. Make no mistake my brothers, you will have to navigate this terrain from your own soul. Thank you for all your work, and all your excellence in it. You guys are poetry on the rock! Much love, much respect, so much appreciated! Climb on... 66carpenter
Inspirational stuff! Crazy to see the passion and production quality that goes into these climbing videos these days. All the strongest out there keeping us psyched and showing us how it is to climb at the elite level. Love it
So amazing to see these collaborations and seeing the strongest climbers of the world facing the mental climbing challenges. It makes it so much more relatable for the average climber to see how top climbers are facing these issues. Really inspiring and full of good lessons! So much respect for this!
Incredible video quality, congrats on everybody involved, this project is huge. Also, it's nice to see somebody making chess analogies not just on the surface but actually giving off the impression they know the game ;)
Echt super Video! Kamera, Schnitt und Storytelling. Und natürlich eine echt starke Kletterleistung! Projektieren kann so hart sein. Viel Erfolg beim nächsten Mal, Joggl
This is really amazing, we're getting wonderful videos from Adam, Stefano and Jakob at the same time, maybe the three best climbers in the world? Bravo!
@@asdzt123 Yeah, I know! He just hasn't been posting quite as many videos, and none from Flatanger (which is in Trøndelag, the county where I learned to climb more than 40 years ago, so it has a special place in my heart!)
The crux of this route, which is very difficult indeed, comes when they are just pumped, completely. That move is very hard, but it's twice as hard when you do not have the strength anymore.
It is crazy how rusty some of the bolts in flatanger look after such short time. Shows the influence of the nearby sea? Also it almost looks like it is stainless steel, mixed with just the washer out of plated steel. This Video and the recent one of Adam really make me want to go there! Amazing!
The route could be called something chess related - maybe inspired by the "Sacrifice" in chess where you give up a piece in order to win the game, similar to the sacrifices you will have to make to send this line. I think "Sacrifice" would be a perfect name for the route, and would complement "Silence" as well with its namesake. Also it would tie in with your passion for chess.
Oh man, watching this brings back so memories of that place, especially as you start on the 7a route which I couldn't finish...the middle section was a pain... loved watching this, but would be nice to see the route from the start more and understand where it actually goes and how long? Hopefully we'll find out in the next video/s... good luck guys!!
This makes me wish there was an eccentric billionaire who would fund having top climbers do a few weeks like this during the year with the team. Think of how the sport would progress with collaboration between top climbers on hard routes like this with some funding behind it! Imagine if you could count on one week a year looking forward to seeing top climbers work together on the toughest stuff, rather than them coming together for a world cup for instance. I love comps, but this type of collaborative work on real rock is just so much more exciting IMO. Great work to you both!
if only dude, athletes love being at the mercy of "eccentric billionaires" as opposed to just being broke and making it work. they didnt need a random rich guy to get here, why would they need one to get any further?
@@freeaudiojungle4407 Fair enough! Eccentric billionaire was a shorthand for me to say "some great incentive" like there is with world cups (I know money is not the main incentive for comps, but more prestige). Money was a shorthand for whatever incentive you want to place there, some kind of event prioritizing co-operation rather than competition is all I was trying to get at
Makes me warm inside hearing foreign climbers swearing 🤬 in English. Then going straight into thire mother tongue 🤣 what a pair of monsters you both are. All that climbing and the easy 8a to the top. Mind blowing 💪 Superb video. 🔥
Stefano should have tried Project Big instead of Silence during his time at Flatanger; this route is his exact style! He would somehow find ways to rest up to full where it feels impossible.
It was awesome working on Project Big together with Jakob, and I am more than psyched for round 2!
the toilet paper on the crack was amazing adam
@@Fred-bb2lt I put toilet paper in my crack all the time
@@rickittyrickith7028 good for you, someone doesn't
Wedged tampons are the best tools for drying stuff
Holy smokes guy's,that line is a BEAUTIE AND A BEAST.New world's hardest.What do you think guy's?
Seeing these collabs between the top athletes of climbing instead of the unhealthy poisonous rivalry we see in alot of other sports is the epitome of being rolemodels for the next generation!
its because climbing works a little different than say football
Yeah its just such a healthy community
The beauty of climbing is you're only competition is yourself :)
@@rdtarcade7644 But it's not like there haven't been some crazy rivalries in climbing also. Hopefully there aren't many more lol
@@johnmortslleh2929 Or it's you against the climb, so your fellow climbers are more your allies against the wall than rivals.
Realised how strong these people are when Jacob started talking about the rest of the route being 8a as if it was a ladder
exactly, lol😂
Between Jakob's, Adam's and Stefano's videos and the stuff mellow is dropping on the regular, we're treated to such a high level of content it's climbing heaven 😌
Missing Seb Bouin in there even though his videos are in french (with subs).
so true
Dont forget Wedge! Top quality!!!
And Seb Bouin, and Megos, and the TAMY group in Japan as well, and a few others here and there!
and Wide Boyz
if you have time to say "take" 3 times while you are falling, well that's a giant whipper
i think the third one is an echo of the cave, but yea..
I don’t know who the hell is behind Mammut branding project or marketing or whatever, but getting Ondra on their team and doing those kind of videos is absolutely magic. And they’re doing a brilliant job, because there’s no point of comparison with, for example, Megos videos.
Anyway, what an amazing era for sport climbing with Ondra, Seb Bouin, Jakob Schubert, Stefano Ghisolfi and Alex Megos pushing that hard. And girls doing exactly the same
Wow. Jakob falling through the air yelling “take take take!”
My life would have flashed before my eyes in that moment
One "take!" for every draw you skipped is the standard, no?
You really need to trust your gear to skip so many draws. Was all hardware stuff used from Mammut?
That whipper at @27:00 was bone chilling. My soul would have left my body. Jakob skipped three draws and took rope out to clip overhead. Props to the belayer for catching that.
I think that belayer was Domen Skofic.
The belayer didn't catch that. The Grigri did. look at how dude is belaying with brake hand up. If he was using a reverso, jakob would be dead
@@xavierx93 he was taking as fast as he could, and he knows how to use a grigri. It would grab even if it slipped a little if he pulled the rope down (even while slipping). But if he needed to take as much as possible
"We're probably never going to fall there." Classic rope climbing safety strategy.
@@eamonvs90 It is yeah.
When you already know he didn't send, yet, you scream your lungs out cheering at the best attempt. Inspirational stuff!
Adams appearance seems like being the climbing guru, sitting in his cave in Flatanger where other climbers would make a pilgrimage to for advice.
Lol
Me after making my long way to the cave: Oh climbing Guru. What is your adwise to improve to climbing my first 7a?
Adam: AAAAAAAAAAH!! AAAAAAH!
Me: Can someone translate?
oh my god. had to put my work to the side immediately to watch this!
especially when adam emits that blood curdling scream :D. Its too juicy not to watch!!!
I really respect the honesty of how frustrating it is to try these routes again and again. We all get frustrated with projects and its nice to know that even world class climbers can be just as frustrated but still, eventually, send.
If we go frame by frame we can see that the kneebar slipped in Jakobs best attempt. Love to see you guys pushing each other!
I love the wide shot of the cave with the echos of agony. These guys are amazing.
This is the climbing video that resonated with me the most by far. The mental part of having just a couple more tries and knowing full well you just have to stick that one last move is super draining.
Apart from the crazy climbing i LOVED the soundtrack. It sounded like jon hopkins and that is one of the greatest compliments you can give a producer today. The quality from editing, to sounddesign, cinematography and the climbing itself is next level!
I intensely agreed with your comment, when I further realise now I'm drinking earl grey while reading it. Cosmic!
What an unreal video/series. 2 titans of sport climbing taking on one of the sickest, hardest lines I’ve ever seen, and capturing it with extremely high quality. We are blessed
Like when Adam worked La Dura Dura with Chris!
The chess position at 14:32 is actually very cool and very sharp, lots of ideas like Qa3 which if black doesn’t give back the bishop leads to a nasty attack
What a truely mindblowing piece of film-making ! I never really realized how enormous this cave is until I saw some of those shots. Bravo ! Can't wait to see how this project Big unravels
In Adam's Silence video is a zoom-out shot with a drone in the end. Really really epic moment and shows you how big the cave is
This is insane. You and Adam are looking so solid on it and I cannot wait for round two. You and Adam are such huge inspirations and I am so glad you guys have the opportunity to work together on something as awesome as this.
The cinematography and production of this video is the best I’ve ever seen in a climbing video.
So nice to see 2 wonderful climbers working together in a project like that. Sport climbing is just a so different sport ! Thank you Jakob and Adam for rising up the spirit of sport.
It was the best climbing video content for a while 💚
couldn't agree more!
It's so great to see people work together instead of against each other. 🥰👍
Amazing to be allowed in to the process!
Big up Jakob! You have it next time!
The quality on this production is absolutely stunning. Massive congrats to the team who put it together. . . . . . The strong climbers were cool also.
what an amazing time to be alive! being able to witness something like this is mindblowing!
> Side note with a prediction: those guys are so modest than once they sent it the will not dare grade the route 9c+ but will setlle for "hard 9c" . Once they are done, come back here and tell me I was wrong ;)
This is coming at the perfect moment. Looking forward to see how this crazy project is going.
Danke für das super Video! Wir haben it euch mitgezittert, mitgeschwitzt U Daumen gedrückt! Großartige Leistung und echt cool, daß Adam und du das Projekt gemeinsam angegangen seid! Alles Gute weiterhin!
The collaboration inherent in climbing is badass man
Great movie ! And I love that it's round "one"! Next season, you'll send for sure.
Always great to see top athletes from any sport pushing their limits in healthy competition.
This video is a gem, Totally impressed and motivated to keep getting better myself and stronger after watching!

Love this YT so much. Not only for the quality of the climbing and but also for the amazing quality of the video. keep it up!
What a crazy fall, how far is that?
Crazy good video keep up the good work Jakob !
Echt super Video! Kamera, Schnitt und Storytelling. Und natürlich eine echt starke Kletterleistung! Projektieren kann so hart sein. Viel Erfolg beim nächsten Mal, Joggl
Damn you can feel in your gut every struggle and painfull moves. Amazing cinematographic work from the camera team !
Thanks for showing these amazing videos, way to go man, even though you didn't finish it it was inspiring.
Amazing to watch the journey with better weather your going to send this no problems
Stark Jakob!
Danke für so ein weltklasse Video
This is really amazing, we're getting wonderful videos from Adam, Stefano and Jakob at the same time, maybe the three best climbers in the world? Bravo!
Don't forget Seb Bouin! He just dropped a video as well 😁
Alex Megos is up there too. He put up two 9bs in a month in his channel.
Seb's 2022 is the best performance of sport climbing in history so far, but Adam, Stefano, Jakob and Megos are top 5 right now

Very interesting. Thks for sharing this adventure and everything coming with, especially about problems you have to face with
Wieder ein MEGA Film Jakob und Hannes!!!
Danke Christoph! 😀
Excellent work. The climbing and story are compelling and the videography is top notch.
The crux of this route, which is very difficult indeed, comes when they are just pumped, completely. That move is very hard, but it's twice as hard when you do not have the strength anymore.
Looking forward to round 2!
Great to see two great climbers sharing success together. Very few sports and sportspersons would share that with fellow competitors.
Wow, great video! Can't wait for the Project Big series on Adam's channel as well.
Every bone in my body was wishing the best for a send. Really great work guys.
AMAZING, just possibly one of best videos this year.
Good cinematography
This is one of those videos that just makes me want to get up and drive the 4 hours to the crag every time
Really great video and climbing. I was scared all the time, those two guys skip most quickdraws. Jakob's fall was insane.
Fantastic video, fantastic climbers, and fantastisk route! Can't wait to see the send!!
Incredible video! Good job filming this story like a piece of art!
It is crazy how rusty some of the bolts in flatanger look after such short time. Shows the influence of the nearby sea? Also it almost looks like it is stainless steel, mixed with just the washer out of plated steel.
This Video and the recent one of Adam really make me want to go there! Amazing!
Sooooo excited for round two!
16:50 Jakob how many clips are u planning to skip? Jakob: "YES"
Great to see this, feels like being part of the process! Send it boys!
the shot at 28:47 really puts this climb into perspective for me, it looks so huge and insurmountable, nuts.
For a moment there I thought beast monad was going to come through! You guys rock on, project big will go!
I was Guna say. I wow, what an awesome video, but it’s more like a movie!! Amazing job putting this all together!!

Mammut should make a shirt with the logo up side down so it’s visible in the knee bars
Awesome footage, can't wait for round two! :)
28:54 I guess that's what a 9b+/c will be like though. It would be crazy if such a hard grade was sent after just a few days of projecting no?
Awesome seeing Jakob and Adam put up the highest scores in the 2024 Olympic lead finals!
