Amity Warme climbs Book of Hate 5.13d

[@svecmobiii]

With the volume up you can hear her heart racing through the lapel mic! The feeling of huge exposure while palming and smearing is unmatched. Great effort and filming.

[@daniello9155]

I thought that was my heart racing I could hear.

[@amity-warme]

@@daniello9155 🤣🤣🤣

[@infinitetomato9746]

holy shit that's so insane!!

[@FelizCumple2.0]

I luv hearing ppl heart poundin'! Wish everyone place mics in shirts lol

[@Daniel-ng8fi]

haha, yeah that really added to the video

[@maxblair3317]

I just read the description and apparently she sent this with a completely torn A2 pulley? This is one of the coolest sends I've seen.

[@miguelgazquez5717]

I mean, this is probably one of the best route to do with a finger injury. Maybe not with a shoulder injury though

[@maxblair3317]

@miguelgazquez5717 13d with a completely torn pulley? Yeah you can't discredit that my dude lol

[@MrJarastamon]

​@maxblair3317 They aren't though. I believe they're just pointing that the route is good for injured fingers because it's mostly not about pulling hard on crimps. It's like the difference between campusing an overhang and campusing a crimps vertical slab.

[@amity-warme]

Thanks so much for watching! And ya, it's a long story but I had fully ruptured my middle finger A2 pulley at the beginning of my fall Yosemite season (several weeks before doing this climb) but hadn't yet gotten a diagnosis because it was a fairly complicated/unique case and mechanism of injury 😬

[@bobbystorc]

Especially when trying to get seen by a specialist. Even with a referral there seems to be a 10-15 day wait unless your appointment is set by an E.R. in which case you'll already have a diagnosis. lol @@amity-warme

[@sturedman6920]

The heart is racing! 🫀

They should have named the route "left rotator cuff's worst nightmare" XD Awesome send, great vid!

[@amity-warme]

Haha 😂 thanks for watching!

[@Vertikal1000]

Best climbing video in a long time🤩

[@amity-warme]

Ah, thank you so much!

[@ChrisTurchin]

Dug so deep on that one. Amazing.

[@Olopnogitron]

Easily the best piece of climbing content that I've seen in a *long* time! Absolutely fantastic. More of this, please!!

[@skip1860]

You mean video

[@Olopnogitron]

@@skip1860 Nah, I mean any form of content, video or otherwise

[@skip1860]

It's a fucking video

[@Olopnogitron]

@@skip1860 Correct. This is a video. I'm saying that this video is the best piece of climbing content--video, article, podcast, or otherwise--that I've encountered in a long time. I'm not quite sure what's got you so fired up about this.

[@skip1860]

@@Olopnogitron the term content is so fucking overused

[@highcurrent1125]

My triceps are crampin' just watching this! Well done!

[@vickily5801]

My calves are burning

[@niccolofinardi4825]

My shoulder are hurting

[@WJohnson-qz9hg]

i just tore my groin

[@amity-warme]

My triceps and calves were on FIRE! Cramping so badly, you can tell that they are hardly functioning there in the crux haha!

[@SOPHIA-LOVES-MEATBALLS-69]

My male pelvis is groaning

[@paulheimweh]

I started cramping just from watching. Fights like that are always inspiring.

[@isaacalvarado123]

I saw the reel on IG. Had to see the whole thing. What an experience. I felt the struggle, the thrill of the challenge. I could never do something like that. She is incredibly strong.

[@simonsimon9880]

One of the best

[@ambermay6884]

Me too

[@MrNBA360]

Wow her heart was pounding! Pretty cool to hear how stressed and how much energy it takes for someone to do this. You don’t really realize how taxing it is. Very cool to get to listen how the body reacts.

[@EricCraig-km4sb]

Very nice work! I will have to look up where in The Valley this is. Of course this climb is almost 2 pay grades above my best effort, but that was long before you were born. Anyway, my hat is off to you!

[@rocketdabs]

Holy moly, forget about hard offwidth climbing, this is the most heinous looking thing I have ever seen 😰

[@johntuttle9544]

Naw, OW is worse eg Wide Boyz heinousness.

[@ElSantoLuchador]

I will not forget. Offwidth is the worst, and you certainly can't seam them up with stoppers.

[@simonsimon9880]

The thing that this sort of route shares with OW is that there's really no sequence to rehearse. You could work it 20 times, and never place your palm or foot in exactly the same spot twice. Same with OW, it's just a full body friction scrum.

[@adebiyiadekunle1056]

Bro u everywhere? Saw ur exact comment on IG😂😂❤

[@paullottridge4864]

That was the most honest effort at Maximum capacity! Thanks for the visceral experience!

[@shawnlund]

The head bar followed by the slow motion fall where you freeze time and reset with the desperate cry of no, no, no…was my favorite sequence of climbing moves ever. Such an amazing effort 🙂 congratulations.

[@liliana.6053]

I feel like I've gotten a workout from how anxious I've gotten just from watching it. Amazing job.

[@ronmiller5140]

My shoulders exploded just watching it! Awesome job!

[@amity-warme]

Thank you!

[@stephenmurray3721]

Best and grittiest climbing vid it’s ever been my pleasure to watch !! Just brilliant to see ! Thanks for this !! ❤❤👏👏👏👌👍👍

[@amity-warme]

Ah, thaks ofr the kind words! Grotty is my style haha... I'm not the strongest climber out there but I can fight hard!

[@liljohnnotbigjohn]

tell me you are tenacious without telling me you are tenacious. DAMN that was something/terrifying.

[@daniello9155]

Amity, I was holding my breath the whole time. Your level of courage is beyond words.

[@amity-warme]

Thanks so much!!

[@phymadori545]

Respect her as a human being. Inspirational. Thank you Amity. Thanks to the camera crew as well.

[@aliyaclare]

Totally gripped watching her through the stemming section. She's a beast.

[@MrJwvang]

Awesome climb and effort! 👏 The moment at the 5:50 mark. Likely a moment we’ve all had as climbers!

[@nettewilson5926]

Yeah I was like I think she went for that ledge too she n and it did look like she defied gravity there holy cow

[@alfredloch8471]

First of all the Video is made so good and i love that yoiu can feel the intense climb she goes through. Well done SCARPA

[@climbingsnowboarder]

it doesn't get much better than that..!!! so gnarly.. filming on point too!

[@mtbeni]

got severe goosebumps from this send, amazing fight

[@nicholase.milburn1174]

It's always wild watching professional athletes, because the amount of skill and finesse they have at their craft almost makes it look attainable. Like, watching that and seeing her hit all of the holds from an above POV gives you the sense that "I could do that," when in reality, I'm NO WHERE NEAR a 5.13d climber lol Awesome accomplishment! Congrats on the climb!!! Very very impressive level of skill.

[@amity-warme]

Thank you!!

Speechless! Amazing. Congratulations!

[@stephen7971]

"despite climbing with what she later found out to be a fully ruptured A2 pulley in her middle finger!" lol excuse me wtf Awesome climbing and video!

[@amity-warme]

Thanks so much for watching! Long story haha - I had fully ruptured my middle finger A2 pulley at the beginning of my fall Yosemite season (several weeks before doing this climb) but hadn't yet gotten a diagnosis because it was a fairly complicated/unique case and mechanism of injury 😬 Oops. It's on the mend now!

[@Leander_]

Great effort from Amity, awesome climbing film!

[@bigwallben514]

I've always wanted to try this one. But, now after watching the video, I feel like I've climbed it, and from the comfort of my couch. Awesome work on a world class stem. My favorite type of climbing. Amity, if you haven't done grand illusion yet, I think you would like that one too. Little easier too, but bit steeper.

[@amity-warme]

Hahaha! I think you still need to go experience it in real life! It's mega! And thanks for the recommendation - Grand Illusion is definitely on my to-do list!!

[@atticus900]

Fantastic, gutsy climbing! My toes hurt just watching this.

[@sebastiannai4381]

Gnarly. One of the rawest climbs I’ve ever seen.

[@stelz750]

Well done! Let's see some Connor climbs sometime too!

[@IronJohn755]

Way harder than anything I've climbed but when I get on a 5.12-something corner route like this with a lot of stemming I feel like my hips and shoulders are going to pop out of joint. Such a hard, painful type of climbing. Can't imagine doing it at this level while placing gear.

[@zeroethsort1071]

Damn, 5.12 I couldn't imagine lmao. I get on our dihedral wall at the local gym on occasion, and even the 5.10s give me some real trouble. The movement always feels super insecure, and super awkward.

[@IronJohn755]

I couldn’t have imagined it a couple years ago. Keep climbing- progress happens gradually!

[@johnkirk7809]

Fantastic footwork

[@briseboy]

Love the headbar! I suspect a headhook or jawhook or for rests in small cracks, the famous earhook, can be added to techniques. It was very wise to chalk up the lips, of course; drywall climbers chalk up everywhere.

[@amity-warme]

😄😆 Thanks for watching! I was so relieved when I got to that ledge!

[@CaseyBald]

During the first ascent of this route, Randy Levitt used Velcro on his cams and quickdrawed nuts to make it easier to quickly place pro, amazing ASCENT AMITY!!!!!

[@amity-warme]

You're right! I didn't have the stamina to place as many pieces as he did though haha!

[@CaseyBald]

@@amity-warme Leavitt is incredible his FA list in Yosemite and JTree are futuristic. I always loved his style of routing, some of my favorite routes are his. Excellent send, you visually exemplified the feeling that made me come back for decades to keep climbing.

[@mountains_and_stuff]

Is that her actual heartbeat coming through on the lapel mic or something?! What a fight!!

[@amity-warme]

It is!

[@Bizantyne]

I also heard a strange sound and since perhaps I am very empathetic and well this is a slightly disturbing video my heart was also beating fast so I thought it was my heart but impossible definitely my heart was not beating as fast as hers and I I realized it was the girl's
