I think this challenge PERFECTLY sums up spiff as a youtuber. He doesnt call himself "the best" at what hes doing, but if there is a challenge he wants to go for then by GOD he is going to go for it, and he will not stop until it's done. As silly as it seems, your grit, willpower and determination to sit down, lock in and just DO something has really inspired me to take on challenges in my own life, like learning modeling and creating my own game. Im sure no matter what challenge you set your mind to in the future spiff, you will get it done, no questions asked.

Question is, is it the Stanley Parable narrator or the Slay the Princess narrator? SP: "Spiff had foolishly assumed that he was attached to a safety rope, only to realize he, in fact, was not, as he plummeted to the mountain base." StP: "No, you forgot to attach the rope.

Hope you enjoy the break of watching a Scottish man climbing a giant mountain. *Pets Loaf* Cheers!

[@barracotaco8695]

Considering the last two mountains were considered to not be conquered when you played it, I want to think all of those "Richards" were a group team doing an effort collectively to climb them. I forget if the last two peaks are connected together (probably not), but seeing how there was only one member at the top of the 2nd last mountain, they wanted to try and conquer the final one as well. Which as we later tell, got most of the way there. I saw the offvod, but congrats on truly peaking through the intense nervousness there.

[@hunterbarnett4893]

The last two are connected, you climb the “base” (second to last climb) to get to Solemn Tempest, so your idea holds alot more ground (and I believe they’re dressed the same too)

[@Cake_soup]

​@@hunterbarnett4893 Also fun fact: From on top of Ymir's shadow you can see Solemn Tempest and the Bulwark in the distance. A lot of mountains have bigger mountains in the distance.

[@ariffirdaus5376]

id even think those that didnt claim to conquer bulevark probably didnt get to the top traditionally for the sake of at least being able to try out the much bigger climb

[@ariffirdaus5376]

it makes sense since both do have the flag and stamps at the top despite being unconquered

[@barracotaco8695]

Essentially the way I viewed the end here, (to add more to my original comment too) is that they conquered the second to last mountain, but went straight ahead to the last one, but were never able to get back to make that claim of conquering it. But as the player, you not only do both, but manage to return as well. And you do it by yourself no less, making that challenge much more impressive. Sure it took a few bodies to make it possible, but we got there. All thanks to Richards 1-12 (idk how many there were lol)

This mountain, according to the barometer (which inflates the height of the mountain, it’s actually about 2.4k) is actually much taller then Everest itself, as Everest is situated on a plateau with the rest of the Himalayan mountains. This means, from the base, Everest itself is only 4k tall.

The concept at 1:19:24 is so true. It's what I like about rage games, because as long as you spend enough time on a game, eventually, you _will_ get better, and you will get that run that beats the challenge. I played Super Meat Boy when I was younger, and after 100s of hours throwing myself at it, I finally beat it, and it was the best feeling ever. (this concept works for the harder levels of the game)

The US TSA screening failure rate has actually recently dropped to 70% from the 90% it was up 'till then! He also still had that knife for the entire time he was slying until that final trip back from Iceland, meaning it already made it through the TSA in America. The TSA sucks.

Looking forward to the next GTFO vid, I've seen Scalar (kinda *the* youtube channel for gtfo lore and guides) of Rundown 8 and I'm nowhere near the skill to complete half of it with my friends, let alone the time commitment the later levels require. Also it's real easy for my partner to tell when I've watched some of your videos because my voice sounds significantly more canadian afterwards :\

[@greapesouda805]

Awesome video Spiff! Out of any playthrough channel I’ve ever seen, yours has to be my favorite! In all seriousness, huge respect to you for completing this challenge, coming from someone who can barely beat Stereo Madness. In addition, hats off to the editor, whoever it was who edited this video specifically. I couldn’t imagine how much content needed to be combed through. I don’t normally comment, but I just really needed to make a cheap joke.

[@TerraWispr]

To be fair, your highly edited "playthroughs" are incredible, I enjoy them just as much, if not more than the challenge vids

[@chancematters]

Genuinely it’s such a unique feeling to be present for something like this live. It low key makes me understand why people watch big sports games I guess? But this is way better because… chat. This is community. This is everything. In rope we cope.

[@Doritos5]

Celeste's music matches this game so well, I think it's because both games are about climbing a mountain

[@22gunslinger21]

Imagine watching some guy about to climb some tough mountain taking a harness with him and some people just calling him a baby using easy mode instead of dying.

[@crimsonartist5190]

"next time on peaks of yore we will be climbing the redfort"

[@Etranck]

The music for the finale couldn't have been any better, props to DM Dokuro for making such a banger

[@AwkCrafty]

One of your best videos yet. Great job Conner :)

[@GambitRose.]

Love the vid and the editing work that goes into these to come out as amazing as they do

[@Gaming_Slime123]

Hey spiff, something funny about climbing the last two mountains when you first travel to the second cabin it equips the six point crampons, so if you don't change back to the ten point crampons, climbing the last two mountains it is about twice as hard as you have way less powerful crampon jumps.

[@nottestament6201]

You are a lucky star spiff, I once got pulled by airport security for a small cartridge... That still had the bullet on. The whole thing was rusty as hecc but I kept it as a gift from my father, same situation, I had this huge traveling back that I barely check before traveling. I'm pretty sure I got tagged for that, and also lost my flight by the time they released me so... Yeah, fun experience, check your pockets y'all, I almost got linked to a Colombian Cartel that time too.

[@Umbra920]

The Celeste music is actually so perfect for this. It synced up with what was happening so many times.

[@lucdoodle]

That was an extremely cool vid Spiff!! also very stressful to watch! XD mad respect!!! Congrats on beating all the mountains! especially the Richard's Demise one!!

[@AJOlaks]

23:14 Slime Rancher music honestly goated just like the games themselves

[@BlazeStorm]

I literally just finished watching the first climbing video a few minutes ago and am still recovering from the twist at the end. Now there's a THIRD video? Lord

[@TheMasked_Panda]

I heard someone call Spiff Sisyphus, and my mind immediately went to ultrakill, then a bit later he started playing Ultra kill music, and I was just like :O

[@joshuawalker5793]

After watching spiff conquer the tempest without a harness, i wanted to attempt the same thing. I did the tempest ages ago with a harness (cause bad) but after watching this I got the determination to do it without harness. I fell SOOOO many times and even reached near the top once and fell, but in the end I reigned supreme and conquered the tempest and with no ropes remaining. Thank you mr spiff for all the motivation you gave me with this simple video and hope to see other people do the same thing as me :)

[@testdest]

What's funny is the solemn temprest is standing on the great bulwark of the north (2000m). So it's actual height is about 9000m

[@RealParStar]

2:02:52 *Spiff 7000+ meters in the air* *Also Spiff*: WEEEEEEEE!!!!!

[@idksomething-wg5hz]

I saw your stream and decided to check it out, i joined LITERALLY as you finished the mountain, like it JUST started playing the ending cutscene kinda cool that i was there but 😭 cant believe i missed it 😔

[@LairdUSA]

Man what a video. Excellent work y'all

[@vuffyyt4914]

this is peak yore gameplay

[@nordicpioneer8220]

Regarding your rifle cartrige story: In finland we were flying for a school trip to a museum on to the other side of finland. I remember going through some smaller security check and into this waiting area before another metaldetector security gate. We were waiting around and checking our coats for our Keys and phones and such, when I realized that I had three empty assaultrifle cartidges in my JACKETS FRONT POCKET. There was a brigade next to where we lived so some of the forests where i went to forage mushrooms were used for defence force training. As you said i had picked some brass up cuz they were cool. But now i was in wait of a metaldetector security check and i had goddamn standard issue assaultrifle cartridges in my pockets ehile i was just 15! I obviously was panicking and then concluded that the only way to dispose of them was: Throw them into that small plastic thrash can for bottles. I even put some bottles on top to hide them. I hope i confused some thrash worker when they find brass cartridges among the plastic waste...

[@stupidmariobrosmoth]

I was shiny hunting Ho-Oh in Pokemon Ultra Sun while watching this, and I got it on my 500th reset right before you got to the peak of the mountain. Rather fitting imo. Great stuff with these mountain climbs!

[@justinmanwell1038]

I've been waiting for this video so much that I even went back and rewatched the other vids keep up the good work spiff

[@Daragonal]

54:51 Ah yes, I sure do love Cyphisis!

[@AD_shortsRBLX]

That was my comment lmao

[@yaboieen3139]

They should have just named the mountain Jörmungandr since you have to "snake" your way up the mountain and it fits with the Norse theme

[@decagonibuswastaken7503]

I am so excited to watch this video, but I cannot allow myself to until I summit the Tempest myself. You, along with a few others, got me to play Peaks of Yore. Thanks for that.

[@shagas3294]

what an insane video, prob top 5 best atralspiff videos oat. Can't wait to rewatch it 50 times lmao

[@irExron]

Now, spigg can put "climbed not Everest" in his resume. And that first 2.5 hour prediction made me giggle

[@killo500]

can we all get a connor appreciation here, bros is over an hour into the vid and still making good edits. hats off to you :D

[@Ghosttova]

Never would I have a thought a completely scripted video that I know exactly how it's going to end would make me so nervous

[@ilovemycat7291]

46:15 you know you've gone insane when you start asking chat to name the rocks

[@smocman3727]

Next up: A Difficult Game About Climbing I congratulate you on your journey. Good luck, and godspeed, Spigg

[@Cake_soup]

In my opinion A difficult game about climbing is way easier than Speaks of Yore.

[@ariffirdaus5376]

i bet that game would have at most 2-3 hours of casual playthru compared to this almost 30 hours monstrosity (the entire game)

[@smocman3727]
