Climbing One of the World's Highest Artificial Walls | Adam Ondra in CopenHill

[@samuelford]

Getting out the shower and seeing Adam Ondra dyno across your bathroom window.

[@Pytte]

its a powerplant...

[@samuelford]

@@Pytte its a joke...

[@bragoss4290]

Power plants must have showers too :)

[@aaronhauptmann869]

The architecture and climbing colab I didn't know I needed! I couldn't make it to Copenhill last year due to it not being well connected to public transportation, I'll have to make it happen next time!

[@samuelford]

@@aaronhauptmann869 think you've posted your comment on a comment reply section dude. FYI

What a crazy cool building and climbing setup!

[@tommeyer3871]

Fantastic video on an amazing project in a beautiful city. I appreciate the watch :)

[@kafuga.official]

14:45 That's a sick dyno. The whole route looks really cool.❤

[@HourRomanticist]

I think its important to see that not all things proclaiming to be green are good. This however, i think is in the right direction. It genuinely adds to the city, it creates a useful product, and it is useful while being nuetral or possibly carbon negative in the future.

[@fellthekerl]

Loved seeing the massive wall and seeing how cool the message was! This company seems like they are doing something really awesome

[@BlackdownBlocs]

Thanks Adam, incredible stuff, so inspiring!

[@jeffhussey8]

Awesome. Great video and scenery, dialogue, travel advert, and environmental activism all in one. All without taking away from the actual climbing (the dynamic hand match was inspiring). I feel a tiny bit smarter after watching.

[@eheath23]

Great video! Glad they finally let a pro climber use the wall - they refused to let Alex Honnold climb there without taking the paid course and test. Amazing facility, but it’s not currently being operated in a way that’s good for local climbing community.

[@rw2602]

Great video, I had no idea this existed. Like redbull in many disciplines Mammut as a sponsor did something that actually progresses the sport.

[@trentongardner2584]

I visited Copenhagen on a university trip focused on engineering sustainability and I wanted to climb at Copenhill so badly but I was unable to. This video scratched that itch and was a great watch! I definitely want to visit again in the future.

[@uncommonsimon5775]

A video I didn't know I needed ! So pumped to watch ! 😁

[@acasccseea4434]

Clinbing on that transparent panel is gonna make me scared extra

[@emiltraidl4707]

There is also no friction on the panels, quite an experience 😉

[@zcl812]

Not fair that hes the best climber alive and his videos are this well produced! Wow

[@theperserker]

Looks amazing, but I would be terrified :D Propably because I have never done multipitch climbing

[@RandyRandom-j4c]

I love it! I wish they did stuff like this on more buildings, so cool.

[@enp_55]

This is such a cool building

[@onsight2822]

Nice one Adam 😎👍✌

[@PeaLoop]

Loved this.

[@TheDragonshunter]

Damn... That is a true first world...

[@huginsamuelsen]

Great video, great message.

[@mikemoore-hehim1149]

it's very interesting to see the many uses of the space all at once; at the same time, it is vital to be aware of the moral hazard of "carbon storage" - tempting people away from the already well-defined and fundamentally necessary solution of ending the use of fossil

[@JoeJoe-wv6de]

@@mikemoore-hehim1149 and also trees

[@M0dElite]

To my mind we will need all the available options to tacle climate change. This may not be the most impactful part in the equation, but at least they are making two quite necessary procesesses less negative for the atmosphere.

[@mathieugiroux6407]

notice at 14:38 when he switched his hand, he for one second was just on his feet at this height and not dat good a crimp, seems worth risking falling off 2 times he did it anyway ... ^^

[@vojtasoo]

That actually doesnt look too bad, atlest from camera view. I wouldn't call it risky move:)

[@biltongandboba]

That's an awesome building

[@MarkRozema-v9m]

Adam and I have one thing in common with our climbing, we make the same noise when we unexpectedly fall off the wall. 10:15.

[@matejCekal]

obdivuju tě Adame jsem teké lezec

[@iggimoore]

Awesome 💪

[@drcmayo1213]

This should be converted into an olympic discipline, maybe a speed multipitch discipline similar to redbull duo climb

[@msig206]

crazyyyyyyyy

[@idoiamartin5969]

Hey Adam, love all your videos. Big fan of yours. Could I ask you which is the knot you are using in the video? Have never seen it before. Thanks in advance

[@audetetvincit]

Very cool! Love this sustainable tech solution to waste. And that 8c finish pitch looks super hard and low percentage! I’d be curious if anyone can repeat it.

[@vojtechmarik922]

Zdar! Zajímalo by mne proč má Adam zde helmu? Dík :)

[@Mcnew77]

Most likely the buildings insurance mandates it.

[@maxwallace1358]

When was this?

[@thomasb4764]

Allowed to climb it as an Single Pitch? i like endurance routes ;)

[@rainerernst7410]

Nooo aaah

[@assaqwwq]

How much tho? All these invitations but no price tag 😅

[@ivpetr8880]

First! Ehehe)

[@Kaygu_]

I'm not against carbon removal, but I think it's really bad that it's being pushed that much recently. Big companies just want this technology to work so they can continue to pollute as much as they do today. Or even worse. We should seek to emit less carbon first, not try to burry it

[@ingridheinz7985]

You take a 160m rope for it or make in two pitches?

[@diacoal2433]

Pete Whittaker would do it in one pitch haha

[@thomastarp]

There are 4 pitches ✌️

[@ingridheinz7985]

@@diacoal2433and Alex honnold without rope. 😂

[@tclapson]

I love Adam, I do... but I just wonder how many carbon emissions the journey to Denmark took up... there are so many hidden carbon emissions in everything (almost) that happens everyday, that even something like climbing this wall will have silently used up a ton of stuff in the making of the materials and logistics.

[@zelfjizef454]

Everything that smells as much like money as this building and climbing wall is sustainability for show only. The appartments and offiice in there will sell like hot cakes for insane prices to people sharing the same mindset : performative activism, rich people caring more for reputability than for environnment.

[@oekoperDK]

@@zelfjizef454 It's a waste incineration combined heat and power plant, not appartments. There is some office space in the building for the company operating the plant, but mostly it is just a waste incineration plant.

[@zelfjizef454]

@@oekoperDK Then I stand corrected.

[@zelfjizef454]

Usually love Adam's content but this one looks scenarized like an advertising and I suppose Adam has been paid for doing this. Not my thing but nothing wrong with making a living, money doesn't grow on trees.

[@michaelclimb]

A shame you promote CO2 climate scam. Nice wall though, but way too expensive and besides, Bohuslan is much much better.

[@user-ng4wt9bg4w]

Can you explain? 😃

[@abidbolvandeprout]

How is it carbon removal? They capture carbon from stuff they burn, they don't "remove" carbon from atmosphere. There are factories that capture carbon, but they are not powerful enough to capture all the carbon emitted now. Also tbh Ondra does not seem like the best person to talk about this as is sponsored by Volkswagen...

[@oekoperDK]

If that "stuff they burn" is biogenic, it can be carbon negative. Their HP says the following: "A lot of the residual waste at Amager Bakke comes from biogenic sources. But there is still fossil residual waste ending up at Amager Bakke (and any other waste-to-energy plant). "

[@lro295]

You basically use the plants or trees as carbon collectors. The direct air capture systems I think you are referring to are very energy hungry because they have to filter a huge amount of air to get any decent amount of co2. By getting the plants to do the initial co2 capture for you you end up with a much more efficient process. Still energy intensive but way less than the direct air systems.

[@abidbolvandeprout]

@@lro295 I never saw any reports saying about trees being a good way to compensate greenhouse emissions. To my small knowledge the main carbon capture systems spoken in IPCC are used on top of factories. capturing from the air does not seem as promising. But my point is more that if Adam Ondra is worried about climate change, he should stop traveling around the globe every other week.

[@abidbolvandeprout]

@@oekoperDK Sure it's better to capture carbon when you burn stuff, biogenic or fossil, it's just it feels awkward (hypocritical) for a professional climber to advertise this and then taking the plane, make ads for fuel powered vehicles...

[@reubenmace6644]

This is just blatantly greenwashing an indoor ski slope. This climbing experience costs 1100dk (150 euro) for two people. Haha. Way too expensive! If you genuinely want to stop people burning fossil fuels by going climbing abroad, make it no more than 35 euro each and people might actually consider using it (when it’s not raining).

[@Fallentin1]

There is no indoor ski slope. There is an artificial (dry) ski slope on the roof of this power plant.

[@navienslavement]

What an ugly building

[@orlandopockets6372]

sick!
