I finally tried "Bibliographie" on the Kilter Board

Alex Megos and Chris Hanke visited Steinbock Erlangen to check out the "Bibliographie" Boulder on the Kilter Board that someone has made up in Alex name.

Love the community aspect. Def make a follow up Magnus, It was great to see Alex try the first and set a more realistic version.

dry humour, strong climbing, stupid jokes. Perfect combination

Shirtless Megos looking like a superhero with funny dry humour on the hardest kilterboard boulder? Okay, I’m taking out the popcorn let’s go

Just watched your send of Power of Now - super impressed. Perhaps you should give these a go!

[@jakobbauz]

He does look like a super hero.

[@5upl1an]

whoever set the impossible "Bibliographie" boulder was an epic troll.

[@rishabmeh32]

The crazy part is they also have to have the knowledge of what would feel just about impossible to people who can climb V15+, so it’s not just some random dude trolling, but rather a really strong climber

[@La0bouchere]

@@rishabmeh32 It's actually Magnus trolling everyone

[@danielcgn]

@@rishabmeh32 Dude, i'm at v7 Level and i'm sure I could Set a really Bad but fucking hard Boulder on the Moonboard or the Kilter Board. So I think this Guy is far away from the Level, maybe couldnt do a single Move

[@MythAvatar]

@@danielcgn I think the issue is, it's hard to know what hard is for a V15/16 climber. You might set something you think is nearly impossible, and it's only V13. You might set something and it's literally unclimbable.

[@shmalts1]

that 9c joke was brutal lmao

[@duuplo]

as it has to be xD

[@markkealy4417]

This must have been a satisfying af video for Magnus, imagine trying something impossible, under the impression that someone you competed against did it, then getting to see them also find it impossible

[@noone-ld7pt]

This was awesome! I really love how the elite climbing scene is becoming so interactive! Like, in what other sports do you see the best of the best just casually posting training vlogs and going back and forth like this? It's really cool! Also Alex' personality is like built for this; he is so effortlessly funny and just seem to be enjoying himself so much when he is climbing! It's really contagious and makes me wanna go climb!:)

[@alexbarcovsky4319]

The MMA community is also quite interactive. Dont know any other though.

@@alLEDP Definetely not every sport, not even close. Climbing has channels with hundreds of thousands of subscribers, even a million subscriber one. Apart from the fitness/bodybuilding community, this is rare. Majority of sports dont have huge youtubers or pro athletes doing content, mainly because they are paid enough so they dont have to look for other means of income.

Alex, I know that we have already seen lots of videos of your training, but I think a lot of people would love to see how your day is structured in relation to training (when do you do rings, when do you climb and so on). Maybe that would be a nice video to make :D

[@kajesimpson126]

This was an amazing video. Climbers are pretty lucky to be alive right now, Where the Internet and beta videos and tools like boards make interacting with pros and the highest level of Climbing so accessible

[@RockClimberAlex]

Love the very matter of fact "couldn't do it" aspect of the video. Not taking yourself too seriously is a sign of a balanced individual.

[@nikolayaleksandra-uncut]

Great idea of the video Alex! Can't wait to try the Real Bibliographie on Kilter in the local gym! Make sure your account is the Real Alex Megos so we can try more of your routes there! Great video, so inspirational!

Cool to see this boulder on Magnus' channel and then a few days later watch you attempt it aswell!

[@taitloyek7980]

Thanks for the 2 awesome climbs on kilter! Flashed the v7! Wow though I was trying to start your v 11 and the start is so hard. Just puts into perspective how hard the actual bibliography is if that’s the easy version of it which is super cool.

[@brendanacord]

Great video and so funny! Also more proof (if any was needed) that the setting on the Kilter Board is open to the public and anything can end up in the app. Climber beware, and grades are very subjective unless there are lots of repeats...

[@Aige1234]

[@ShakespeareanBroncobuster]

Is Magnus in better shape than he is putting on? He acts like he isn’t training much, but he made that pinch match move look as easy as Megos did (Megos is obviously the stronger climber these days, though.) I’d love to see Magnus make a run for the Olympics to represent Norway. It would be fun for his channel to show qualifying stuff, and we’d like to see it - win or lose. Also, I’d love to see Megos collab with Magnus on KZbin. They are two of the strongest climbers alive at their respective peaks. Their strength feats are nuts.

[@danielcgn]

Okay, but still way stronger than Magnus. But okay, everyone was expecting this

[@ivankirchev7348]

Actually I'm surprised to see not that much of a difference between Magnus' and Alex's attempts. The boulder was too hard to tell for sure Alex is stronger. (Low key rooting for Magnus :D)

[@rishabmeh32]

One of the reasons is that Magnus tried much harder because he thought it was possible, while Alex just knew it was troll

[@danielcgn]

@@ivankirchev7348 yeah I get you, but Magnus couldnt Event hold the crimp.. its a short Boulder, so a difference of one or two in hard moves is big

Great content! I was wondering Alex if u can make a campus board vid on why Wolfgang’s campus board was at 23cm for the first rung and 20cm distance for the rest and Ben moon’s is at 22cm for everything? Is the first hard move of AD that distance in cm on Wolfgang’s original board for 1 through 5 for the mono move? I can’t imagine there being an arbitrary 23 cm for no reason.
