Climbing Dangerous Cracks with Adam Ondra

[@WideBoyz]

Huge thanks to Adam and the whole AO team for making this trip and video possible. Want an 'I ❤ Crack' mug like Adam? Go to 👉 wideboyz.com/product/i-love-crack-mug/

[@jefflemay66]

I want an I ❤ jugs mug!!!

[@AdamOndra]

I may have failed the British ceremonial tea-drinking test, but my crew and I tremendously enjoyed (and survived) the sandstone climbing with Wide Boyz. We got scared, we tried hard, and it was such a great time. I am sure we will climb together again soon! Also, the entire AO's production crew cheers and looks forward to the next climbing time! For now, enjoy both videos on our KZbin channels! PS: We have a little Christmas surprise for you. So stay tuned.

[@bendbackandpeel]

We truly are in the golden era of youtube climbing collabs and it's just awesome to witness. The sport is in a really good place right now, thanks you so much for the great content!

[@frouketea]

We waited so long for Adam and the wide boys and now we get even more content, this is the world I want to live in!

[@Vyhnankovi]

Fantastic!

[@dave_h_8742]

Tea ceremony. You did very well, the spoon on table is optional, mine goes on a chopstick rest. There's an American woman who made a mug of tea in a microwave, truely terrible toxic waste of tea. Love your colab's

[@Pandabrah_D]

@@dave_h_8742 Damn, that comment about Americans really came out of nowhere lmao

[@warpigs330]

I love that y'all spent like 1/3 of this video on tea. Really shows your priorities are in the right place 😂

[@dave_h_8742]

Yorkshire Tea for the win

[@QuasimodoCrew]

it's the equivalent of how skate videos spend a 1/3 of the time on smoking cigarettes and smashing things!

[@Ajfmaizy]

Makes me wonder if it was mostly to sell a mug and/or drive comments about the technique, which is half standard British and half Pete being silly

[@vlsblades3245]

They're British give em a break!

[@pavelbelik6174]

Adam: I would never free solo Also Adam: *free soloes while tied to a rooe *

[@chris_3729]

as long as you have a rope it's not free solo ;)

[@josefzocek9585]

@@chris_3729 such a funny, bright guy you are :)

[@antoniorizo335]

cause you can't come down without a rope

[@CheapFlashyLoris]

Pro is aid

[@LogRobin]

He dragged the rope with him for the last ring. He could have used a petzl connect or any life line for that.

[@Nefville]

Its always nice to see you guys out and about doing more preparation for the crack cellar.

[@dave_h_8742]

😂

[@instinctroller]

hahaha

[@taran5883]

'Pete gets lumped with Adam' 😂 Adam being like the over enthusiastic friend we all know who says "its only a short walk", when talking about something like the appalachian trail

[@letsallbe-friends1120]

*Tom's musical renditions need to feature more!* 😁👍

[@dave_h_8742]

I can see his kids cringing with embarrassment & shame 😂 make it so 😀

[@elig2714]

yeah that was proper good n funny

[@bigutubefan2738]

That two minutes of the O dog and Pete making a cup of tea would've been the greatest sponsored segment on KZbin ever!

[@alejandrorodriguez5471]

The quality of this channel and adams is kind of crazy. Props to you all.

[@AdamOndra]

Thanks a lot! AO Team

[@MrGuliton]

Ondra drinking tea out of an "I love Crack" Mug somehow broke me.🤣

[@Inkthiefmusic]

The joy on Pete's face at the sounds of the spoon clinking is so heartwarming. Makes me want a proper British cup.

[@benoitbergeron8858]

Pete's level of commitment is always inspiring!

[@themeatpopsicle]

OK but I want to see the behind the scenes footage where the camera crew gets to the top

[@WideBoyz]

They climbed some of the easier routes on the Towers a few days before. Apprently getting the rope up on one of the towers was epic😂

[@janstransky442]

Regardless, they need to be pretty good climbers too. They would deserve the behind the scene praise for sure.

[@lui5gif]

You guys did a great job on adding to the video on Adam's channel, the cut from "proper British" to Pete fighting for his life with the music still playing was perfect!

[@LouisThiell]

Pete’s face when Adam puts the spoon in the milk can. Priceless. :D

[@markstewart9362]

Pete and Adam tea time is just fantastic!

[@flopflopfloppy]

The goofy music carrying on into Pete fighting for his life is amazing😂

[@Heyght]

Petition to make Tom singing the official outro

[@jono6379]

This was great. Looking up and seeing the distance between those last 2 rings made me a little queasy. Its not surprising ondras such a good climber when you see he comes from such a wild climbing scene. And congrats to pete for that first onsite!

[@elliotrichards6948]

I would absolutely listen to a podcast where you bring on guests like Adam and have tea with them. Just throwing that out there.

[@daleykun]

The exposure on these routes is terrifying - just watching makes my palms sweat - mad respect to anyone climbing any one of those

[@Mike-oz4cv]

Yes. Routes in other parts of the world are often run-out, but then it’s usually only high up where it doesn’t really matter. When you are 40m up a 20m fall into empty air is fairly safe. So at least you can tell yourself rationally that you are perfectly safe. These Czech routes on the other hand with the first bolt already 10m up and the next bolt another 10m up …

[@zivotvkrosne2132]

Great! Adam + WB is a really brilliant collab!

[@rdtarcade7644]

these absolutely elite climbers of our time trying those routes puts the achievments of the first ascentionists into perspective. these routes were established ground up, the older ones were climbed with the rope around your chest and often times with bare feet. they were incrediblely skilled climbers absolute elite athlets even without good equipment or professional training (or ever climbing something graded harder than 8a)

[@AirborneLRRP]

On the shoulders of giants

[@andyman127]

Adam, "oh you think this cellar is dangerou. HAHA, let me show you my country"... probably

[@basewarrior]

The production in this video is amazing. Thank you for sharing this guys, amazing stuff.

[@TheRedWon]

The bits of Tom explaining why he had the better setup and forcing Adam to demonstrate how to make a proper cuppa fit for the Queen (rip) were just fantastic

[@ZoniacMan]

I'm glad Tom got to come. I thought he was left home in the cellar in Adams video :P

[@outandabout259]

I agree about the cup size. The next time I see a half liter mug I'll buy one for three reasons: First, normal cups (3 dl or less) feel like they are always empty after 3 sips. Second, half a liter is the smallest amount of water I can boil with my water cooker. Third, I always feel like the tea bags have more than 1 cup in them but the second cup is always diluted and tasteless, so one big cup should be perfect.

[@cjeesewalburge5820]

Water cooker?

[@nzd3742]

Tea bags obviously have more than one cup in them because two bags for a pot is fine.

[@soundout4000]

the quality of climbing and beautiful footage in these videos is so sick! so much respect to all involved x

[@Macks_Mustermann]

Thank you for always putting a smile on my face and making such great videos!

[@martinkalivoda3398]

So awesome to see you guys climbing in Aderšpacht with Adam! Always a treat to see experienced climbers just "running up" the hardest sandstone there.

[@dantelaw7759]

The comedic music as you grunted your way up that crack was just 👌

[@yayweredoomed]

The scene with Pete talking about sandbagged routes, that ends with “you can die on them,” is such a wild/brutal contrast to the rest of the video. The video as a whole is art.

[@worm628]

Production value and editing were top notch on this one. Bravo.

[@TGoKovenant]

This is the best time for me to have discovered climbing. Theres just so much super high quality content for me to enjoy. I've only been climbing for almost 2 months and I've just been blasted with so much highly entertaining, impressive climbing. I love it so much.

[@reeset]

These towers, the whole area, looks surreal. Love this content.

[@spencerbaldwin6078]

absolutely loved the tea bit. so wholesome to see you two sharing parts of your culture. truly inspiring to encapsulate this important part of the international climbing scene in something so simple.

[@marticecchini2147]

Tom, we need the extended version of the O grades song!! and a collab w/ Adam singing it. Amazing video as always 😍😍

[@asterixzm]

THATs the spirit of climbing looks like... Video editor is making impressive work to show atmosphere of that trip to us 🎉

[@BradM]

Love the drone shots and graphics used in the beginning, really elevates the entire production value.

[@deetoher]

You guys need to get sponsored by Yorkshire Tea (they sponsor all sort of strange things - previously they have sponsored a juggling conventions!)

[@heighRick]

Pete and Adam, GG -- amazing effort. Tom, GG man. Thanks, helps a lot!

[@danjordan2625]

This felt like such an old school doc. Loved it

[@Talisuvlezeckycestopis]

Yes, i think Tom is winner! :D

[@sunriselp849]

Good to see Tom back :) Also, I really enjoy the content with Adam!

[@edcook1886]

Coming from the Elbsandstein it is so cool to see that untik today this old routes Bernd Arnold had established are still hard enough to deliver a good fight for todays elite climbers.

[@Ericxnugz]

Thank you Tom and Pete and team! Y’all are the best! Would love to see a vid with Alex honnold one of these days in Yosemite! Would be so dope

[@xxproffxx]

We need this to be the outro from now on

[@seanmcguire61]

Tom has a real "Bob Dylan" vibe going there. I think he made a new genre "climbing folk music," a genre of music that embodies the hardships you face climbing in the wilderness.

[@88Spint]

You got some KILLER drone footage m8! WOW! What a beautiful vista! :D These rock towers are amasing!

[@glynwilliams13266231]

Another great video. That route looked horrific but at least the runouts aren't too long eh!

[@taylorberry-maraist7332]

I could watch footage of this area all day. Incredible.

[@chrisstaniforth5629]

Hahahaha yesssss!!! Petes face when the O dawg rattled his spood in the cup 😂😂😂. Reit enjoyed this chaps!!

[@tiofernandez7314]

Love the choice of music in the second climbing segment after the tea. Way to spice it up! 😁

[@AirborneLRRP]

Pete struggling this hard means it's freaking tough. Wow.

[@joostdemoor138]

I think all climbing videos should have tea ceremonies in them

[@gurban9446]

I could watch these two drink tea all day, more interesting to watch than comp climbing!

[@skygodley]

The best climbing video I’ve watched in ages! Love how you’ve turned Mr Ondra into a true Yorkshire tea drinker 😂

[@averageandrew82]

Pure Gold 💫Pete's explanation of the route's and how to make tea was 💯

[@cameron8641]

Wow. What a wild place...

[@JakobDrawitsch]

Sandstone has such a distinct sound to it, you can really hear the grainy texture when material rubs against it. I kind of like it but it also makes me a bit more nervous lol.

[@ThatTenorGuy6]

The music after the tea segment around 6:42 doesn't fit the scene in the least bit. But I love it haha

[@Jagknorr]

Lol i loved that too. Made me think of some wacky Disney thing going on 😂

[@nandovancreij]

that music perfectly matches the vibe i get from watching pete fight for his life

[@Bobbzorzen]

I knew Tom had some Rizz but seeing him rock that guitar with Rizz just ooozing of him... wow, just wow, not a dry seat in the house

[@Theo-vs3mv]

great film! what a merry cast of characters lol

[@camkay3633]

When does Tom's album drop

[@BuenoSociety]

You both should do a monthly news sektion together. Would be funny af 😂😂

[@littlepappy6003]

Absolutely brilliant. Loved it.

[@perzoorgasmatron4914]

Tom, lovely guitar skills! 🥰

[@kubahoft5877]

The editing is just great!

[@mikamerchan4825]

Can we just appreciate the quality of the whole tea section 🤣🤣🤣

[@imOverWhere]

On that chimney why even have the harness on hahaha

[@Doublebasist]

Great video. What i am not sure about is when pete talked about climbing the first route and that it was a dangerous and scary route and graded "7a" but i heard him describing the first accent he made in norway i ghink and that ghe ,ast part of the route he did solo because of the rope drag but that it was ok because it was only 7c. A i missing something here Pete?

[@morristgh]

He also talked about these routes being incredibly "sandbagged" which means the grade is too low. I think Czech routes in particular are well known for being sandbagged a whole lot.

[@jdjones4825]

Its nice to see pete being outdone in the " understating danger department " 😂😂😂

[@aladeenmadafaka6286]

Ive just watched this video cause I wanted to learn how to make proper British tea. And now I know. Thank you

[@camjcasey]

Is there anyway you could release that song Tom sang at the end? At first I thought it was funny but it's actually a bangar.

[@ReynoldMcFlitz]

Your content is outrageously good

[@leorizzi3599]

Great song, Tom!

[@stonehouse1]

I love how you’ve got Ondra sniffing tea bags like that’s the standard British way of brewing up

[@sessionmediaa]

Flippin fantastic video!!

[@pKaosGoat]

I was expecting a few rounds of cucumber sandwiches to come out next! Love the cultural master class! Excellent watch! Thanks lads!

[@pKaosGoat]

Stop trying to kill Pete!

[@satanaz]

the spoiler at the beginning saying that no one died or broke their ankles ruined the video-watching-experience for me... thanks Tom.... j/k amazing video! funny to see that after so many years poking fun at the o-dog, you guys became bros after all

[@dave_h_8742]

Think he looks level headed with a good sense of humour.

[@letsgocamping88]

Insane climbing. Fantastic video as always. What was the O grade?

[@BiGt0of]

Great video as always boys!

[@Yung6Pack]

8:00 where was his last quickdraw 😭😭

[@bazwax77]

Thanks guys 👏🏻👏🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@parptarf]

Those rock formations are incredible

[@hollidayadventures]

Brilliant!

[@alvaroe7678]

Best youtube thumbnail ever

[@katarzynazofia]

Tom's song at the end did me 🎉😂❤

[@vojtechkubin1590]

Yeah, pple in the Czechia sandbagging everything on the daily basis :D.

[@grigorsmith7506]

Was there any falls on the big run outs or 'gear placements' on this trip?

[@harrypickin1845]

Nice to see Tom for once

[@NickPierpoint]

Looks like absolutely nailed-on Type 2 fun.

[@michaeldouglas3888]

Legends

[@aleksandratrzcionka8973]

Oh wow, we need more Tom on a guitar in future videos !

[@supernovaleftover1812]

Very playful music for this edit, I like it.

[@onlyeyeno]

Hugely enjoyable video as always. But I can't help but wondering when seeing videos like this, who and or what "hoists" the camera-men up to their positions ?? :)

[@ip2862]

The camera operators often tend to be climbers as well. In fact the end credits list a chap called Tom Randall as a cameraman; I've heard he's quite a good climber. They probably don't need "hoisting" - maybe just a rope to jumar up!

[@paulmitchell5349]

Pete ! Give him some Yorkshire Gold Blend tea.

[@christophw.8553]

Adam still hasn't fully visualized the beta for the british ceremonial tea-drinking.

[@ERICHOEHNINGER]

I love it!😁
