How this climber made a solo journey up Yosemite's El Capitan with no gear - REACTION

[@willvr4]

Really, you live in America and can't pronounce Yosemite?

[@cherb23]

Some people don't give a fuck about anything except their self.

[@HandlesSuck123]

You can sense the selfishness oozing out of her.

[@ryanrae6026]

yosimite Sam

[@TB-kl5vn]

4:19 is hilarious to me. "Now I get it. He practiced the route." Yeah, because that totally makes this any less insane...

[@rainbows5232]

whats wrong with you? he didnt say its less impressive, its just make more sense, geez

[@ProfeCreepyAdventures]

@@rainbows5232 nothing is wrong with him. He's just stating the facts

[@MACK0142]

I thought about subscribing, but then you couldn't pronounce Yosemite

[@nicolenedelko]

I have watched the movie he survives

[@nicolenedelko]

I love it

[@twstf8905]

⚠️Spoiler Alert! ⚠️

[@craptos6938]

They are from Minnesota. 😓

[@provuksmc6619]

YO-SE-MIGHT?!

[@watt2785]

Just watched the movie and it was a experience I will never forget

[@T0ghar]

Great movie, deserved the Oscar.

[@seanbailey4756]

How would he not win the Oscar dude risked his own life for 4 hours and to make it and other times well deserved

[@mpaul147]

He couldn’t take breaks and finish in less than 4 hours. He practiced and memorized every hand/foothold.

[@cm2485]

He took multiple breaks during the climb.. he even took a poop before the final pitch

[@DanielJackson2010]

Your conjectures and assessments from the point of view of a lay person are cute. But you are projecting 'quite a bit' of your lack of knowledge into it. ''what if the stone broke of..'' - don't you think the guy who actually climbs it wouldn't have thought about it? there's always a risk factor, however, the danger can be minimized when you plan, methodically train and know your stuff. Alex knows exactly what he does. This rock in particular is extremely sturdy a hard, very unlikely to go anywhere whilst you're standing on it. however, the risk factor here is your technique and skillset, your shoes and friction you're capable to produce, your work with balance and work with your body's center of gravity. sometimes you depend on your fingers grip, other times you need to rely on your feet and shoes, sometimes neither hands nor feet can provide reliable comfort or safety, depending on the difficulty of the wall surface. There you have to be extremely careful, or try find a route where you can avoid those areas. Work with friction and balance. Meticulous planning of every move, reducing the amount of exposure and vulnerability to the minimum, weather monitoring - starts raining when you're in the middle of the big wall free soloing - hmmm, you're fucked bigtime if you're not able to repel down and wait till the rain stops. strong wind can also be a risk factor - but if you're good at your craft, you can minimize the risks to only objective hazards (those you can't directly influence or control yourself) which gives you great advantage over those who are not as good as you.

I’ll donate when the girl can correctly pronounce Yosemite

[@kalen1702]

The Docu-film "Free Solo" is very nicely done and gives great perspective to the whole achievement. It's not too overly dramatic (though there are some moments), but it really is a dramatic and terrifying feat, so I'll give it a pass. I've watched it like 5 times lol

[@mukeshlama7189]

Congratulations for their whole teams won the Oscar award I remembered

[@strawdawgs78]

The dude literally lives out of a van and does nothing but eat, sleep, and climb. And maybe hang out with his girlfriend. Also my palms are sweating.

[@yukiomakita1762]

strawdawgs78 that’s the best way to live

[@lordpizza2566]

Still more productive and interesting than most people. Desk jobs aren’t that interesting.

[@1989NickyD]

0:09 I used to think it was pronounced that way too when I first saw the name of the cartoon character 'Yosemite Sam' 😂

[@lukasgrimm1116]

You have to watch the movie Free Solo … ist so nerve wrecking and for me probably one of the best movies I have ever seen. 10/10

[@JHB1984]

... "what if" ... he slipped in his shower and breaks his neck ;oP

[@johnnyboy7144]

It’s the greatest athletic achievement in the history of the world, bar none

[@Kudown]

This is not just high up Free soloing this is hard af too

[@sagetheassassin3192]

RIP Stan Lee

[@kingjellybean9795]

Lol im 30 now when i was 27 i fell 35ft and broke both my legs when a handhold broke free of a cliff i was soloing. Been climbing since i was 13 and free climbing with some buddies since 16 17

[@daniel.sandberg.5298]

Leave this activity to the experts

[@sambotherway1536]

Can they actually react ffs

[@adamwest4987]

That Girlfriend ... he doesn't deserve her if he continues... Cause "The Bold NEVER grow Old'... it's only a matter of times...

[@motelghost477]

Except he didn't climb it with ropes without falling, he fell a few times.

[@thomasstift2019]

gotta say every climber ever cringed at the pronunciation of yosemite

[@abinjosephkk8611]

Practising doesn't mean anything here he is also at the mercy of the conditions that might occur....

[@christophertame8991]

Please learn about climbing 90% is with your legs... hilarious you think it is arms

[@user-cv2ln4mf4k]

I wouldn't say 90%, but still its alot

[@cmm3338]

@@user-cv2ln4mf4k nope. It's about 90%

[@cliftonjames785]

@@cmm3338 it depends on the wall and section, but yeah its mostly with your legs

[@yukiomakita1762]

it’s 90% with your arms, being ranked 3rd in Europe I would know something

[@irishreddevil9506]

Can you React to SUPER-HERO-BOWL TOON SANDWICH

[@malarghost16]

U guys should react to Halo waypoint: Heroes never dies series! Its about 8 min

[@ParabolH]

Watch the damn documentary and it’ll answer all your questions

[@dale897]

Just watch the movie well worth it

[@TheSweettooth95]

I will never do that.

[@lt.spears1889]

Your “what if” questions made this unwatchable

[@abrahamawes1233]

There was no plateau for him to rest on

[@MrAlathiel]

there are a couple plateaus on the route where you can just stand or sit and rest, but he basically just walked through them and did it all in one go. you can also sometimes rest while climbing in some positions

[@IntrinsiqFilms]

She can't speak Yosemite and El Capitan? In the first sentence? C'mon...weak
