- This is the climb footage from the GoPro of Walter Rossini my guide. I climbed the Matterhorn July 29th 2016. Left the hut at 4:05am, arrived at the summit at 8am and back to the hut by noon.
I find myself watching these climbers in absolute amazement at their skill and bravery!
Fabulous climb. Mr. Rossini is clearly an EXCELLENT guide. I'd have him on the sharp end of the rope any ol' day. Congratulations.
never shown any interest in climbing since childhood, but everytime i see the matterhorn i get an overwhelming obsession to climb it. all of it, to explore it.
steven halliday just do it!!!! I'm gonna do it this summer!!!
It's a beautiful mountain.
Elia Taubert how’d it go
Elia Taubert u alive bro?
As I am with any 8thousander 😂
Awesome video and excellent guide. My hands were sweating as I was watching the climb.
Amazing job, congrats! Watching the footage just seems incredible how the first climbers could make it in 1865 without any fix ropes and modern equipment. I know some of them died during that climb, but that was like flying to the moon.
Did noone see the slip at 15:23 (climbers behind them), could've been deadly.
Every time I feel like mountain climbing I take a nap until the feeling goes away...
Have Newer climed, but what an amazing guide👍
Wow, what a job he did...
Great job, greeting from sweden 🙏⚘
congratulations, this is one of my favorite mountains.
This guide looks like a good one. Good client handling technique.
Congrats for reaching summit its very good video and thx for it! ..woow.!Greetings from Canada! 😉 😊 😋 😎
That looks like it would be impossible to keep from dislodging rocks, it's so torn up. In fact, it's so torn up I'm amazed it's standing. Seems like it would crumble away to a flat mound!
Most of those are part of something bigger and on a mountain like this somebody else has most likely stepped on it before you
North face from the looks of it. Very well done. Cheers!
This is the ridge between east and north face, most of the route is on the east face with the last bit on the north
That final walk to the summit is so harrowing haha. Yeah, I'd be freaking out.
Superb footage and very good guide
Well done guys, awesome video!!!
You made it look very easy !! Great work !!
This is cool Tomer!! @ 9min when you have the sun coming up, and you're above the cloud line is pretty awesome. I am sure you were tired, but hopefully you had time to turn around and take it all in.
Not a climber, but that exposure at 3.30 - 4.30... my lord. Probably normal for alpine mountaineers but I would freeze!
That looks pretty good honestly. Nice rock, obvious way forward, the less exposed sections with worse rock and rockfall are a lot worse imo
Im sitting in bed and this is making my hands sweat and muscles I didnt know I have tense up. Great footage but wouldnt catch me up there lol
You never know until you try 😉
Nice vid ;) thump up. Atough your guide is pulling you up to the summit. Next time give a try to do it on your own, way more challenging.
Great video, thanks for sharing. I want to climb with Walter on the Matterhorn...
Ohh hell naa that summit walk is thin man thousands of feet either side one slip or missed placed step and its good night Vienna !!!
太佩服了，一群不怕死的好汉，征服了一座满是碎石的高山。
Well done. Congratulations! :)
Tomer, nice video, thank you. Interesting to see all the anchor points and how the guide belayed on them. How much experience did you have climbing before?
Thorsten Reitz I climbed a lot before, I have 15 years experience but I preferred to climb the matterhorn with a local guide.
OK good to know. I was just wondering because of all the very detailed commands the guide gave. The guides with which I have been climbing in the past were not as specific. However, I liked this guy's style - I am not so convinced of short-roping, which most Swiss guides prefer. For me the one thing that always scares me about the Matterhorn is the summit arete :).
Thorsten Reitz Walter is a great guide and helps acted as I'm new to climbing, during the climb he got more comfortable with me :) if you want to do it quick.... Short rope is a good option.... Then summit ridge is the best part!
@@thorstenreitz7302Yeah short roping is very sketchy. They prefer it because it's quicker but I doubt it has an above 80% success rate in case of a fall.
Great guide.
Hi Tomer, great video! Which peaks have you climbed before Matterhorn? I planned my climb this summer with a guide, but it's hard to tell when you are 'ready' for it. I believe it also was physically quite demanding?
I don't remember fixed ropes in 1970. No guides for us either.
Jim O there are fixed rope at one section only. If you are experienced enough you don't need a guide. Doing it on the 70s...different equipment, good for you :)
I was just twenty-six and on my first trip to the Alps. Great days. I have a couple of 'Grand Courses.' But the Matterhorn is my all time favorite. Somehow it seems scarier now than back in the day. Good luck.
Coincidentally... I was also there in 1970 (in August of that year). I flipped about 50,000 Wetsons hamburgers to earn the money to go (from New York City). I was 16 years old. I hiked from Zermatt to the Hornli Hut and back. For me that was a big achievement. One of the great jaw dropping experiences in life is a late afternoon arrival to Zermatt while on the train and seeing the Matterhorn come into view.
@@loveaodai100 walked to the hörnlihut today ... Absolutely amazing
just had some food man i cant watch this i feel sick already
FANTASTICO !!!
Which way was it ? Great video ;)
Greetings !
congratulation😊
Have you ever had a client that just froze at some point on the climb?
Walter, what do you do if they fall? Im guessing let go of rope?
steven halliday the technique is to cut em off quickly, that's what you need a Swiss knife for on a Matterhorn
No, this is a very bad idea. Climbing ropes are very expensive and it is not good to waste them by cutting them up. If someone falls,, the person with them should quickly undo the faller's knot enabling them to save the rope.
Ir dos encordados sin asegurarse no es lo mejor, no?
Fantastic vid but sod that for a game
i wonder what the guide does if the the client falls on the ridge when they are unclipped to the wall. like leaning to the other side and trying to balance the weight of the client?
rhomai each climbers needs to be alert for the others balance and help if needed before a fall. No matter what pepole say.... If one's fall from the cliff... Both are done.... But.... When you think about... No one just fall whike waking on the street... And especially when you are aware of the situation.

Thanks. It was amazing. They died on the decent.
well /i hope they got a refund
Who died?!
tomer zussman who died?
Elia Taubert no one died
The GoPros died?
What did that plaque say at 5:02?
I know people who died because of that when they dropped their ice ax and lost the chance to self arrest. Isn't it better to be safe than dead? SERENE rules of climbing?
Was that the Hörnligrat? The title does not specify which route it was, and I could not recognise anything from the Leongrat in the footage available.
Dean Nilvalli that was the Hornligrat route
Dean Nilvalli it was clearly recognizable the Hörnli ridge at 08:50 when they reached Solvay hut, which is on the Swiss route!
@@MD.79 Got it.
They Never show what must be worse the descent, that must be more scary than the climb up
dave bevan it's not... But it is more dengares... Only becouse you are very tired.
I used to do rock climbing and mountaineering. You are right. A good rule is to take the easiest route down.
what route was this?
Nice climb
Can you please share a full length video if you have more clips?
I think I would shit ones self at all the parts this look intense
Why does this need to be protected climbing? This is climbing steep stairs.
+Pete's Eats Thanks for your valuable insight. many people free solo the mhorn.
Pete's Eats I never claimed to be a climber, and my terminology was still correct. Maybe your just a shitty climber with no balls.
+Pete's Eats So why do many climbers have little issues climbing it "solo," and you do? I respect you, but you lack what they have.
Pete's Eats I just saw Meru, and Conrad Anker says "free solo" twice. So fuck both you cowards.
So dallas v, you watched the Meru film nice, I haven't yet, but I certainly do know a little about Anker from way back in the early 1990's, about his attitude in the mountains & climbing resume & also of course about the great Jimmy Chin & Renan Ozturk too, the other team members that made that climb as you will know.
They're all incredibly talented, super athletes, really olympians in their own right quite frankly (sponsored to the hilt) pushing at the edge of the sport or endeavor I would call expedition climbing / alpinism.
Here's the thing though big man, if you have listened at all to anything any of them have ever said while talking on camera, you will know that they are all incredibly humble down to earth human beings too, decent folk, there's genuine hubris there.
None of them would say someone who doesn't have the technical ability or level of experience to be able to safely solo, free solo, climb alone without any rope system, or whatever terminology you are comfortable using, the Matterhorn or a mountain like it, shouldn't be there, period. Simply, none of them of them would say that.
How are people supposed to get experience & more confidence in the mountains if not through slowly getting there over a lifetime with more technical & more challenging climbs, if that's your thing? Maybe compared to the Meru expedition that impressed you so much as you watched the film on a screen, sitting in a chair, climbing the Hornli isn't a really big deal at all, sure okay it isn't. I'm sure you are a major league hard man with years of alpine & rock experience under your belt, well done, it's impressive I'm sure. I'm sure you sprinted up the Nordwand straight out of the crib, but seriously, didn't you have your first experience outdoors somewhere once upon a time, long long ago?
Or have I got this whole thing entirely wrong?
I don't think you actually know a thing about climbing. I bet you never so much as hauled your ass up a tiny boulder in whatever hayseed parts you must hail from.
I mean you said coward, not sure at all where the hell that comes from?
I reckon, on reflection, that it's you who is the coward, yup that's it.
You even wrote it down, damn! It must really be on your mind.
Are you a coward dallas v?
What are you afraid of dallas v?
Did you get to the bottom of the big mountain in your life one day & get all scared & head back to your apartment to cry under your covers?
Sorry for you.
Pardon my Australian, f$&k you c*%t.
I just have to comment. Why would someone go on a mountain if he is not able to do the climb without a rope ? I mean, guys, the matterhorn nowadays is really easy to climb. There are ropes already! You cannot fall from the mountain, unless you are not good in what you are doing and that is climbing. I am sorry, Walter Rossini, you dont seem to be talented when it comes to climbing, i can see by your movements. I am sorry to tell you, but i had to..
You either have absolutely no clue about climbing/mountaineering, or you're just a lunatic.
I knew, i didnt have to comment.. good luck !
If it is so easy, please show us a video where you climb it with no guide!
Luis Ribero chil pal, he's done K2 and Everest without the O2 and all in one day :) both I mean :)
You need a guide if you arent expiriecend enough. To not put yourself or others in danger. Also everyone that isnt insane uses ropes. This isnt a playground for adults. You need to be prepared to enjoy it the best. Also walter seems very expirienced to me. The way he climbs the mountain. Its at steady pace, every move is allready planned ahead, he secures his fellow climber good with the fixed points and rocks, he makes it look ez. Saying such things makes me think you never seen a mountain up close.
