I destroyed the worlds most expensive camping mattress

G7 Pod is hard to pop, but if you do apply the Type A patch on it without cleaning. The alcohol patch it comes with doesn't dry quickly, even if it looks dry, and can ruin your only patch. It is squishy when you step on it, but if you get used to it, it's the best ledge you can get. It's not too expensive at $800ish but that's for only one where as you can get a double for about that price.

Question, do you use three strand twisted rope much?

[@krispucci4817]

I have used mine once so far on a 4 day trip and have used a frame ledge a couple times only. It works surprisingly well and the weight savings are huge. We didn't have to weather a storm but the fly seems good/kept the bugs off. Doubled as an air mattress for our overnight de-proach and takes up way less room in a pack. I'm stoked on it, excited for the next mission. Also, big ups to Ryan for the super helpful content!

Last time I scaled El Capitan, I found myself laying on a G7 about half way up, and the comfort, stability, and support made it feel as if you were standing on the ground itself. It was in that moment I realized the stability of the ground was what was comforting and what was my calling, I descended that day and haven't climbed since. Can't recommend this product enough, I've traded in my van that I would stay in on climbs, I used that towards a house, met a woman and started a family. If it wasn't for the G7 I'd probably be half way up on El Capitan right now with a kinked neck and a calf cramp, but now I have everything I ever could dream of! Thanks G7!

Damn, I thought that I could never sleep on a mattress like that, but the fact that it has straps surrounding it that hold you in AND that you can still be secured while sleeping make it seem pretty cozy. Only thing is, I‘m not a climber, and while I have complete faith in the rope, the harnish and the connection of the two, what I cannot bring myself to trust are the screws in the wall. Just imagining falling as the lead and the closest screw popping out along with you…

[@Mr_Buu]

Climbing anchors are heavy duty expansion bolts. There's a whole mechanism that's kind of similar to a dry wall anchor. They arent just screws into the rock. (Not a climber but your comment made me curious enough to look it up)

[@Aaron-xq6hv]

Well, if you look at other videos on the channel you'll see that the bolts can hold something like 40kN, which is a ridiculous amount of force and your body will break well before the bolts will. Massive Rock slide is a way bigger worry than the bolts breaking.

[@bowenbottorff1283]

I'm glad someone brought this up and articulated it well. I'm not so much worried about the strength of the screws, but rather the rock that it's anchored too. Mountain faces are slammed with rain and wind for millions of years. Cracks appear, erosion happens, and rock becomes brittle. Sketchy

[@Aaron-xq6hv]

@@bowenbottorff1283 Rock Fall on El Cap is probably among the most monitored rock falls in the world. The chance of solid rock just up and breaking for no good reason is pretty slim. Rock that is about to break will not look, or sound (if it is knocked on) solid. But yes if there is a massive earthquake suddenly you might be fucked.

[@Destroyahx2]

Rock anchors are super safe. As long as the substrate is stable. I have been anchored using nylon to a 32 story penthouse. It is terrifying, but you have to put probably over 8 tons of force to break something like that.

Having this and being able to go up a tree in places with dangerous wildlife that aren't arboreal, fantastic use case for the more acrophobic folks. Wish regular air mattresses were that durable.

I'd love to have one of these.

I can strongly suggest tenacious tape for permanent fixes to most air mattresses. Not sure if there is something about the surface texture on these that would make it less effective, but it’s worth a look. Basically ripstop with a contact-cement like adhesive, so it’s lighter, thinner, and at least as strong as the type a patches. I usually carry a small roll, because it’s also good for patching jackets, tarps, etc. The alcohol is to remove skin grease, so use your judgement, but when you need it, you definitely need it.

Great video, as usual. Interesting and informative about a unique product. One nitpick about the dialogue: When you start break testing the butterflies and webbing loops, you point out the mfr's "0 KN" rating, break the loops, and describe your test results as "the 'actual rating' is xx KN". That isn't really correct. The "rating" is still 0 KN; your test result "exceeded the mfr's rating, and measured xx KN". One other thought: If you're repairing a hole (on a wall or at home), using some kind of roller or smooth rounded surface (spine of a carabiner, handle of a hammer, etc.) could help effectively press the patch onto the surface of the mattress.

16:05 You just need a small USB power projector to watch movies on the wall ;)

I cannot imagine waking up in the morning, and with bleary eyes, coming around, and suddenly realising that Im hanging off the side of a cliff. Ive had nightmares like that...

Your review is so in depth! I love it.

[@erock7346]

Love the science of the garage but dang do I love the filmed on the wall content! 👏👏👏

This is like a sketch from “Who’s Line Is It Anyway” where they are given an object and they make up 20 ways to use it.

The new green screen setup is fairly convincing. Was the granite wall CG or was that a practical effect with spray foam?

[@Whiskey-Danger]

Great channel that teaches alot. Today I learned that I will never big wall. Watching Ryan dance around on that thing, seeing how small those big pines look below him, I was cringing the whole time. I'll stick with climbing trees, thank you.

[@theSquashSH]

Gotta love how you're hella high up but not even wearing climbing shoes.

[@jeremiahramos5526]

Man I like watching your videos. But I could never do that kind of stuff man. I find myself getting more and more afraid of heights as I get older. And my stomach has been tight this whole video!! I’ve even gotten the vertigo feeling a couple times when you move really quickly and or don’t seem to be really tied into anything. I mean I’m sure you are somewhere. But I don’t know anything and definitely not enough to actually see where you are. Which makes me so nervous! Huge props to you and everyone who can do that sort of thing like it’s solid ground. Love seeing it, couldn’t ever bring myself to do it. lol.

[@Volvith]

I have watched these 9 minutes just in sheer terror, trying to actually process what's happening here. I don't even have a fear of heights. But my man. _I still have a fear of plummeting to my death._

[@captainjules6033]

I cant be the only one watching this knowing that I could never do this. My ADHD ass would get too comfortable, my mind would wander, and while I'm just clipping and unclipping stuff, I'd accidentally unclip the wrong carabiner and plummet to my death

[@PFMediaServices]

Absolutely. Same reason I won't try scuba diving. But my ADHD brain sure does love learning about the crazy things people enjoy doing, and the organization aspect makes dopamine happen so that's pretty cool!
