I Climbed The World's Hardest Offwidth Crack

[@_jpfq_]

I love climbing because it takes you to amazing places you never imagined, like under a bridge to do crack

[@niccard3101]

I'm pretty sure Red Hot Chilli peppers wrote a song about that 😂

[@S3IIL3CT]

lmao

[@NPC-fl3gq]

Been there, done that 😂

[@neaippehtuuppin]

And get to rub Pidgeon shit into your cuts.

[@DanielDay-xr8om]

Crack is pretty great.

[@jay_wolf_23]

Those two cams hanging down are actually Toms massive balls of steel.

[@Govanification]

Well, aluminum, mostly

[@MikeBoydClimbs]

The concept, the misery, the cinematography 👌 So good And Pete flying out to cheer on his mate is just the cherry on the cake 🍰 I cant wait to see Tom's next "out of retirement" climb 😮

[@ZeJuggler]

Oh, hi Mike! I've been watching and loving your videos since the beginning, and I'm so happy to see you get into climbing. Are there any skills you've gained along the years that have translated into your climbing?

[@MrTJansen]

'I don't want to use the good stuff, it is just my knees.' is proper trad climber hardcore.

[@tobbetrubbel5266]

Finally some solid bouldering content on this channel!

[@Tim_flips]

Sending the first ascent of an 8c+ essentially free solo is actually insane. Incredible grind at the end there Tom. Wow!

[@just_johannes]

Didnt expect Berlin of all places to have crack climbers hardest offwidth, but here we are. 2024 keeps on giving.

[@qawi272]

As a German I can confirm this is a bridge.

As an observer i can tell this is a Bridge but thanks anyway 😅

[@YpsilonK]

großartig!! hahahahaha

[@syindrome]

We need How Not 2 to do a pull test on that 6mm cord to belay loop setup!

[@joetoad667]

Thought that straight away, get them in the cam crusher

[@DerpJustiice]

Saw some Wideboys holds at my local gym earlier, first time crack climbing. It made me feel like a professional, crack climbing is SOOO much fun, thank you for making those holds! Please give us more :))

[@WideBoyz]

More on their way! Stay tuned 💪😎

[@alliecat1008]

my gym recently set a little crack for the first time no wideboyz holds, just a proof of concept and nothing super exciting but i really hope there will be more maybe i should ask them if they'd get wideboyz volumes, i do know some of the setters after all

[@satpujji]

5mins in and this already seems like absolute madness to even attempt. massive props to you Tom!

[@NailsOeltjen]

Tom Randall: "I'll never do anything like that again". Fast forward to a couple years from now and Tom does another epic thing and states "I'll never do anything like that again"

[@stercorarius]

Tom, you are an absolute legend.

[@audetetvincit]

An O6 is freakin’ nails. Guess we’ll never know. Although Tom did get rid of a lot of spider webs in there, a lot cleaner for Adam’s go. If it’s soon.

[@NE0881]

Tom climbed so many bridges he can surely distinguish car brands from the vibrations he feels in his legs 😂

[@dothedrew93]

The sheer pain tolerance these guys have is wild 😂

[@satanaz]

@5:03 "I am not THAT stupid" - Tom Random, 2024 It's hard to believe we are lucky enough to watch some of the greatest climbers in the world, with our own eyes, doing some of the biggest achievements humanly possible here in youtube. I mean, imagine being able to view to first ascent of Mount Everest, or seeing the first 6A being climbed in FB, but we never had video recording of those... It's so thrilling to now have videos documenting this great human achievements, like Nalle with BoD, AO with Silence, and so on. And then there's Tom Random and his shenanigans. Well, as my doctor would say "The key to life is balance, if you do a little bit of drugs, you need to eat a little bit of salad." This is my dose of KZbin crack. Love it.

[@masterpropper2485]

"Tom Random" would be the perfect nickname or artist name for Tom!

[@moritzkockritz5710]

The cams just dangling around below tom a freaking hilarious. The cobweb in the hair also very fitting for such a ridiculous and impressive feat

[@bobsicslar1240]

watching this video upsidedown is hilarious

[@ayuminor]

You'll have to upload that to youtube, I'm too lazy to change my monitor settings :P

[@donnythedealah8511]

this is the best fucking comment ever thank you

[@donnythedealah8511]

watch a man find it extremely difficult and enduring to wade through a crack with his feet stuck

[@ian4683]

When he pads his butt hahaha. Completely out of context with the video upside down. Also the floating cams look quite happy.😂

[@rob7566]

😂😂 he looks like he is doing a shit job of cleaning a slit trench 😂😂

[@neaituppi7306]

2:14. It is hysterical that they just DIY gear from random stuff. Even the pole vaulters will make foot pads out of bicycle inner tubes, rather than there being some kind of foot shield available for it.

[@Govanification]

Offwidth climbing is particularly niche, not a lot of companies looking to make money designing gear for it. The fact that somebody as big as Black Diamond makes cams as big as the #7 & 8 is already amazing since all the other options are garage shops.

[@letsallbe-friends1120]

Amazing effort....and result! 👏👏 It just needed another one of Tom's acoustic guitar numbers for a soundtrack! 😁👍

[@josteinhenriksen1380]

The Wide Boyz are the coolest cats in all of climbing, and and I'll stand on Shawn Raboutou's coffee table in my old La Sportivas and say that.

[@jacksonstacy8962]

Glad someone else likes climbing and is a TVZ and Steve Earl fan!

[@josteinhenriksen1380]

@@jacksonstacy8962 Throwing a secret handshake out into the universe, and someone actually knowing the moves! Good feeling.

[@selimvirtanen9304]

So at 8c+, is this the new world's hardest free solo? Tom didn't actually clip in to any gear, so there wasn't any protection from a fall, just an exit strategy if the endurance runs out. And surely a 60m route cannot be classified as a boulder.

[@2rfg949]

good point!!!

[@ThatLaggyNoob]

That thought struck me too. I guess the question is if this is high enough off the deck to classify as a free solo

[@AdrienGiboire]

Bouldering is about height, not length, isn't it?

[@tylerheitmann1758]

I think it would be considered daisy soloing

[@2rfg949]

@@AdrienGiboire its a good question. I wopuld have to agree. There was little death potential with this climb. more like a really bad day if you fall.

[@adventureawaits6923]

Fuckin hell, that’s one gnarly route. Mega props and mad respect!

[@edvinenetjarn9608]

So good to see Tom "back in the zone".

[@Jake-cx9zl]

was not expecting to finish this video, but I was soon hooked! you did a great job bringing us into your head space. I like slab climbing, but hearing your mental games all I could compare it to was distance running.

[@androgynousmaggot9389]

5:36 was this a compliment?....I'm not 100% sure 😅 Another banger project! I love how you don't shy away from weird and "unorthodox" routes! Always having fun and exploring possibilities! Keep on smashing! 🤟

[@alvaroc6326]

Many spiders that day were like wtf

[@Nothitman]

"Technically falling on your feet and just break your ankles" yeah seems absolutely fine Tom! Haha, what a send though

[@TrackpadProductions]

I'm willing to bet that this will likely be the last route these shoes will ever be climbing. /hj

[@Terminx666]

Shirts look incredible, cant wait for mine to arrive!

[@jwsea9229]

Solid! Awesome! Persistent! Really good show mate! Bloody bully! Right On sticking to the fight!! 💪😊💪

[@gavyndame3700]

Out of retirement and straight in the frier your a legend bruv the webs on your feet are wild congratulations 🥳

[@WWEFAN952]

This is a historical send for this channel and for crack climbing and climbing in general! Awesome Tom what a beast! Pete giving that energy too completed this for me :)

[@GeorgeLupton]

That was superb. For someone who has the fear at times you seem to have an incredible ability to rationalise it out of the way.

[@AnnaNibbs]

New Wideboyz urban roof crack bonkers-ness let's goooooo

[@gd1037]

Congrats Tom! Glad to see you are still pushing yourself to new heights! Or lengths? not depths at least, that was scary for a little bit, not many people can say they've free soloed O6!

[@iedison3839]

Would love to see a training regimen video for this rig!

[@theguy8521]

Good that it was in Berlin and not Dresden. Otherwise climbing below a bridge would have been even more scary...

[@tastemyshells5813]

That one took me a minute to get😂😂

Absolute bloody legend mate. The grind was real on that one!

[@louiswalsh5642]

So great to see T. Randall back on the channel!

[@ginpatsusamurai]

Realistically you could've given it any grade you want because no one is repeating this anytime soon 🤣🤣. Also love how jolly Pete gets when pain and misery are mentionned 24:05

[@BasicThought]

Great send! Those cactus in your office need more light! They are starting to cone!

[@balaenopteramusculus]

Absolutely mental. Mad respect. ❤

[@NCTradLines]

I love that it was given an O grade. 😂😂😂 Way to go, Tom!

[@der_brecher5202]

The light under the bridge at 2:40 onwards is just awesome. Cover Shot. Did anyone take pictures? :D

[@WideBoyz]

Yes Peppo who helped with filming on the ascent took some photos during working sessions 👍 yeah really cool light!

Insane work. Respect.

[@tilkka_]

How do you train to something like that? Like watch a movie like a bat? Or going 15min at the time doing 3 sets a day?? How did not your body brake when prepareing to something like that? Mindboggled! 🤯 And huge respect!!

[@ReVoLynx]

Congrats! The part form 20:00 is really funny to watch with the screen upside down.

[@thisguywalksintoa1267]

well done! That was awesome to watch, thank you for sharing that with us.

[@Barbuzim1]

Super inspiring, Tom! Really big congratulations

This has to be one of the most energy intensive ways to clear out the cobwebs from a bridge

[@theclinchmma4126]

That's one hell of an achievement! You've earned the right to sound anyway u want to! 🙏🤜

[@KS-um9qg]

Man, just started climbing a month ago, and this makes me want to go climb a crack so bad. Tom is a beast!

[@mathkrGames]

Amazing job Tom. O6 is madness, though, because surely Adam would come extremely prepared after getting shut down on his first session.

[@stefanbeyer4795]

I really Love you Boyz !!

[@ItsJustNarkas]

That looked tough! Great job!

[@Jagknorr]

Troll solo bridge climb. Amazing effort, physically and mentally! Well done! 😁👍

[@bazcardinal1176]

What an accomplishment! Loved it!

[@davidthomas1424]

Fantastic entertainment, and as someone else has already said, it's where imagination takes us in climbing that makes it such a wonderful pursuit. I used to dream about climbing, but I'm wondering whether Tom has nightmares about offwidths 😄 Thanks guys 👍👍

[@drover7476]

The cobweb in the hair at the end is amazing

[@matteobecchi1210]

Man you are a legend! What an effort. So good.

[@BCRandom69]

Absolute mad man. Love it

[@poppingkk]

Following the pattern, we will either have to wait 10 or 3 years for Tom's return from "retirement" for another audacious project. :) Hopefully it would be much sooner! This is looked brutal! Legendary stuff!

[@julesiam2oo1]

The cobweb in his hair at 23:53 is so good 🤣

[@Sinus2016]

congratulations 🎉 that's insane!
