It was a mistake on both belayer and climber, see how much she has to pull? she also coulda slid her hand along with all that slack and got the clip quicker. Some fucking climbers man how do these people learn to lead ffs?
She took that fall like a champ though. She didn't skid or lose her form and managed to recover pretty well. Something not everyone on this list could.
Also, climbing with half rope technique, but clips the left rope to 2 pieces offset horizontally to add a huge amount of rope friction from the Z shape. Basically gave himself a super hard catch from rope drag.
Years ago there was a guy that climbs a pinnacle down in Southern Utah. He made it to the top and was enjoying the view. He walked over to the edge to look over but he stepped on his rope laying on the ground. The rope rolled under his foot and he fell of the edge.
At the 2:28 mark the belayer let the leader fall to far because there was pro to the right of the leader. A good climbing partner is a MUST. Climb safe and pay attention when you belay.
That is why back in the day 70s and 80s I only climbed with two other people. I learned this the hard way. I did not get hurt but almost hit the ground from about 70 feet up. You are correct a good second is invaluable. I feel I also climbed better knowing my partner had my back, you are in fact trusting them with your life.
I'm always scared of falls like this happening! Little mistakes from the climber and bad belay techniques can really change the impact of the fall. My boyfriend and I started outdoor climbing recently and I find it so different from the gym. We've been making videos documenting our climbs and are making videos to try to educate people about common mistakes and practices. Does anybody have any go-to tips that they always use when sport climbing outdoors?
How come so many climber don't yell falling just before it happens... I always do it helps the belayer take up any slack as you fall that wouldve otherwise pulled you off the wall before if you had prior to it.
Ok as a new rock climber I just want to know what is going wrong here. Why are they falling such great distances? Is this the belayer's fault for giving too much slack?
all of these people are doing something called lead climbing, where the rope is underneath them and they clip into quickdraws (carabiners attached to an anchor to the wall) as they go up. with lead climbing, if you fall, you fall to the last anchor point (like saving a video game, then if you die, you restart at that save point). a lot of these vids showed people who were just about to get to the next anchor but missed, so naturally they fell a far distance. sometimes, though, the anchors or quickdraws will fail and pull out of the wall as people fall, so they'll fall even farther.
Technically they fall twice the distance to the last biner. They fall as far as they were from it, and then that same distance below it until the slack takes up. Once they mount back on the wall they still need to climb to the last carabiner they clipped in to. Nevertheless, yes this is the effect that is causing these falls to seem so far. Though falling while having one leg over and under causing you to become inverted is far from ideal or normal if climbing within one's limits, imho.
It's not normal for falls to be as dramatic as they are in this video, that's the whole reason they're in the video - because they're abnormally dramatic. If you take the necessary precautions you probably won't have to experience any of this, however certain things like the asian lady at the end who failed to clip before she fell that can happen to anyone. You'll just have to judge for yourself in that situation, personally I some times choose to fall rather than attempt to clip if I don't think i can make it. You should definitely do a weekend class or something on belaying and lead climbing etc if you haven't already. It'll teach you a lot of important safety precautions which could save your life. Done properly climbing is a pretty safe sport.
i don't know about you, but falls bigger than 15 meters are pretty standard stuff for me, it's the ones where the rope gets stuck behind your leg that you should worry about
Bouldering outside can be a bit out there for sure but it's a rush when you're teetering over the top can't see your legs or the mat anymore and you just top it and feel so fucking relieved. Sometimes twisted ankles/wrists, but learning to take a fall goes a long way in bouldering. Just like skaters they fall every day all the time
Mostly belay fails, most of these whippers are bad belaying and completely unnecessary, i would be so mad if my partner sent me on one of these. like 90% of the clips in this video are someone falling within 6 feet of a bolt and then proceeding to fall 30 feet! Belayers pay attention!
Exactly - so many clips of people falling say 5 clips up but for some reason there's also 4.5 clips of slack out. If you're falling level with the belayer from 10m+ up, were they really belaying?
1:36 see that? NEVER EVER get your rope under your leg! Except its clearly between your legs. He falls and the rope flicks him 180 upside down. That happens so fuckin often I wonder if these people ever had a professional training.
Solo de ver esas caídas aunque parece que no les pasa nada, siempre es un deporte de muy alto riesgo aparte de que ponen su vida en las manos de sus compañeros que les dan seguridad.
@@chrishoward9936 yes, inbetween your legs or running to the side of your legs, but never behind your leg. If your leg is between the wall and the rope and you fall it can flip you upside down.
Like 1/3 of these people are back stepped. Not trying to crap on anyone. I have fallen backed stepped exactly one time, never again, thoroughly unpleasant.
@@jonahb3520Just wondering why would that be. I am old and only trad climbed as you younger people call it. Could you not still take an awkward fall. Just wondering.
@@jonahb3520 Thanks. I used to climb a lot back in the 70 and 80s the Gunks was my main area but I also made it out to Yosemite, the Tetons and Colorado. Since watching these videos I am thinking about getting back into it. I still am in good shape, I think my leading days may be over or limited. Take care
I think it's funny when some of these guys fall and sound like little girls, and when the rope stops them from falling to their deaths, they try to sound all bad ass like l new it was cool, mean while their pants are full of shit!!! (For instance ) hey dude l heard jack died climbing, did he say anything when he fell, no man he just screamed like a girl. You had your balls when you went up, try having them on the way down, p.s just fucking with ya, lol
Free climbing with a pad at the bottom. If you want safety then dont free climb lmao. You'll just have to either accept that you'll either get severely injured or die eventually or stop free climbing
I hate when people fall and are screaming like terrified bitches, but then their fall gets arrested and they realize they're going to be OK, they turn their scream into a war cry or something goofy.
Easy to counter that. Open ocean and caves were two fears I had... Then I joined a rescue organisation that covered a large estuary, a mountain range and a large network of caves and old coal mines. Those fears disappeared very quickly.
Most of my climbing occurs where the scope of view is limited to a helmet lamp choice. In the mid-60's I began using a calcium carbide / water fueled Justrite. Brass, chromed, and it survives as a functional underground lighting source. For cartography purposes. I'm using a Grivel ice climbing helmet coupled with a decade old Petzl Arctic electric this year. Prior problems and evaluations were made public by NSS News accident reports. My best climb determined how many cave explorers are required to replace a 12 foot long floodlight. From the bottom of the Bottomless Pit. Up to the stone ceiling above within the Carlsbad Caverns National Park Seen from the tourist trail that lamp content of a dozen such floodlights appears to be a mere 60 watt fixture. Re: nss@caves.org
falling is normal...falling 10 meters with no helmet, upside down and in a weird position is always a sign of stupidity. Altitudinal privilege...or people playing with the dead? depends on the point of view, just allow me to do never ever get a belayer like that, or a climber like you who will ruin a good day splitting his head off and forcing a risky evacuation in the middle of nowhere. Stay at your local gym, please, if you are one of those daredevils hahaha
Climbing helmets are to protect you from cuts and bruises from light rockfall... Not from swinging into a cliff headfirst at 20mph. That's what they make "lead climbing courses" to prevent.
If you have any footage of your climbing failures and want to include it in future vids, please send me a message.

What if our climbing fail caused us to die and we don't have wifi in heaven. How do we message you?
that last guy has a pretty solid belay partner right there
he owes him a case of beer for sure
Is he using a grigri?
@@DeShark88 yes
Not really, he's not grabbing it right... yikes
Uhh what?! Pause the video and look at the way he's holding the GriGri. He's holding it how you would when giving out slack.
3:24 Woah - how much slack do you need!? Holy shit.
It was a mistake on both belayer and climber, see how much she has to pull? she also coulda slid her hand along with all that slack and got the clip quicker. Some fucking climbers man how do these people learn to lead ffs?
your reply was my exact thought. Inefficiency/mistake on both the climber and belayer for those exact reasons.
MCMXCII you've completely missed what's going on there. COMPLETELY!!!!
Belayer short roped
She took that fall like a champ though. She didn't skid or lose her form and managed to recover pretty well. Something not everyone on this list could.
Its a long fall when the lady can say, "I got you" before the line even gets tight.
That first one with the climber bailing off Apron Strings on the Squamish Chief was absolutely brutal.
If he wore a shirt it wouldnt have been half as bad, thats like falling off of the back of a truck onto the pavemenr
that's it, i'll get a helmet now
That last one was gold. Dude was crushing until....hmmm. My foot is weird, let me put it so the rope flips me upside down.
There. Perfect.
I just gotta say I do enjoy these videos
keep up the good work
Snapped ankle @ 2:33
But he said he was good
@@giulioscanferlato9693 being alive is good enough)
2:56 ouch, right on the cacti
When the cameraman moaned at 3:07 when she was about to hit the wall, I felt that
@2:04.... it was at that exact moment Ben realised, He did not in fact.... have it.
The dog watching him was thinking the same :-)
dude was back stepped with a hard-ish catch. super not fun.
love these videos, subbed and liked! Always look forward to the upload!
I didn’t know Carrot Top was into rock climbing 1:45
Instant sweaty palms watching this
Luka Kosir same
Thank you floor, for existing at my location
@1:40 I didn't know Carrot Top was a climber...
Never have I seen someone NEED to do a figure 4 rest on an axe.
2:40.
"I had it!"
Shit, dude. You were miles from that crack!
Also what fricken Jurrasic Park jungle climb is he on???
First time I've seen an ice tool used while climbing rock
3:35 "fucking belayer"
I figured it was rope drag
1:32
The second I saw the leg placement I knew something real bad would happen
Oh. Yeah. Youre right. The rope is fully behind his leg.
Also, climbing with half rope technique, but clips the left rope to 2 pieces offset horizontally to add a huge amount of rope friction from the Z shape. Basically gave himself a super hard catch from rope drag.
the sound of a rope when its sliding fast and than stops is very statisfying
Welcome to choss hell at 2:40
Nice compilation!

You have an accident report or something?
Minute 2:35 his left foot is actually broken / sprained really bad. Damn it
3:29 annoyed me so much, like stop pulling rope clip already
For real. She pulls so much slack but does nothing with it. She had enough with the first pull if she didn't keep adjusting her hand
It seems like shes more than likely just flustered because her belayer is failing to pay out any slack when she immediately needs it.
Some good ones in there!

Cool video Serge
That guy at 1:40 doesn’t look like he needs a helmet.
I’m scared of heights but I wanna sky dive idk wats wrong with me
Always bring a water bucket kids.
This movie called “Vertical limit “ from a while back terrified me. It kinda looks like this.🤭
2.13, that wall looks like a giant block of hashish.

This is why i do bouldering.
Even the bouldering guy ate shit at 3:50. He placed his pad perfectly though.
1:53, id say bens head hurts.
sooo many people falling upside down ! :/
Why is this ?
@@chrishoward9936 Mostly climbing with the rope behind your leg.
@@Yaploq so the rope should be inbetween your legs when lead climbing ?
@@chrishoward9936 yes, inbetween your legs or running to the side of your legs, but never behind your leg. If your leg is between the wall and the rope and you fall it can flip you upside down.
@@gillesduthen8798 I really wanted to try lead climbing untill I watched this video
Full inverted Carrot Top @ 1:30
it is like climbers don't learn to keep the rope out from behind your leg.
1:32 is a prime example of back stepping
Bunch of Delta-Sierras!
why is they clim on the big town
Lol wut
ronaldo cr7 raja 7 songs dafuq
The number of people that put their foot over the rope is just ridiculous
Why is doing this dangerous ?
That first one!
i want to see the back of this guy. looks like he lost all his skin :O
3:33 someone can't belay for shit
I respect y’all who do but , never will I ever ever attempt anything close to this
Can they just get helmets?
2.55 ...and after he fell there was a FUCKING CACTUS!
Don't run it out if you are leading at your limit.

They shoulda have started from free solo straght away.

Whats with so many of these climbers not wearing a helmet? Is it an ego thing?
Yep always wear a helmet fuuuck that. Why do these guys sometimes fall like 50 feet? Wayyy too much slack it seems
no helmets...legs on the inside of the rope..these guys are asking for cracked skulls
Put your helmet on. Always
Some of these people are taking the soft catch a little too far. I don't want to fall 50 feet when I'm 10 feet above my pro.
