Ragnarok // The Most Difficult Via Ferrata in Europe

[@FullSenderson]

Bringing back the old music

[@NameNaameNameeNaamee]

I love that music you use. It really became part of MA. Please never change it!

Smash that like button!

[@garyhoffman1]

Oh man! I just watched the ancient Mt. Whitney video because I was jonesing for a MA vid. Woohoo! And my invite to Northern Norway still stands, Danny.

[@pagewhite61]

Incredibly beautiful! My palms were sweating watching you climb Danny, the camera angles were vertigo-inducing 😂. Absolutely amazing. I’ve loved seeing Tyson in these ❤ Thanks for another great video!

[@ViaFerrataCH]

It always scares the crap out of me coming across someone free soloing a hard via ferrata route, but I guess there are a few guys like you in the world, congrats on the achievement...

[@Summit_Seeker]

Wake up honey daddy Danny posted

[@naujesojzevachsopmac6377]

Hahahaha

[@shayneknox6247]

Yes 😂

[@ContentsMayDiffer]

Having spent most of my life on the west coast of Norway, I can second that you do reach a waterfall ejoyment saturation point.

[@quietfire286]

Blimey, is that just 2 slings? That's a tad risky, they're not designed to be shock loaded. Anyhow, love the videos i'm an avid watcher x

[@no____-____ah]

It's *super* risky for sure

[@zaskarle]

meh...it's possible to get a 2 factor fall on that and those looks to be dyneema runners. You'd probably have to be right up at a cable attachment point and have no give on the cable. But yeah I'd probably at least got for a sewn lanyard with some dynamic properties or maybe a connect adjust...but then how would you fit all those GoPro batteries into that tiny distance pack? Probably could have used some Valhalla phosphate meat at the summit to power the way down!

[@elpukito]

Yeah, those slings have snapped on shorter falls than one would have here. Could have just left them away entirely, I think. I have faith in Danny's climbing skills, but I hope nobody takes this as an example.

[@jk-qe3jj]

And even if the slings don't snap when falling three meters down a via ferrata cable, your spine probably will.

[@BeatzarrAudios]

dyneema slings take about one meter of falling to break them. if you would have slipped at pretty much any point of the via verrata you would be dead. use real protection or go without any and know your limits

[@onemind423]

Love your channel... proper gives me inspiration on my lunch hour.

[@seanmcguire61]

Beautiful, Norway definitely on my list!

[@boogeyman423]

What a beatiful route. If I'm not mistaken, are you only using two dyneema slings? Is this how feeling immortal looks like? 😅

[@RaydenSun]

If you don't fall, you don't need the kit so just don't fall. For this one I guess I would have brought the full kit as well, especially having the option to rest should be nice on something that demanding. Everything up to C I do without any kit. People with it don't want to fall, I just really really don't want to fall.

[@sodakdirtfarmer2030]

I'm digging the new background music at the end. Makes me wanna dance up that mountain, haha!

[@bend6799]

Pushing the edges of safety. Riveting content as always.

[@bushtruck]

I feel like you keep bringing new people on the channel with no explanation as to whats going on. Bring back the blizz

[@davidsuper5881]

Great work! Great video! We did it guys 👍

[@Nicks_Colorado_Channel]

great vid that via ferrata looks awesome! also Tyson was awesome on survivor! didnt realize that was him until he did the check in. outwit outlast outslay!

[@runuphill]

Which Survivor? Plz post link and/or info.

[@DaBeeClimber]

great day when danny posts 🔥🔥

[@RocksOff72]

4:00 Thought there was a cricket in my house. Got up to find it only to realize it was the music.

[@robopecha]

i kinda thought tyson would be filming his way up as well and we would see what is happening on both sides. this video should have been longer! it is so good, i want more!

[@stephenp.5377]

"...stomped it to death, and rocked its bones..." You guys are the best. Now, SMASH that "Like" button and HIT the notification bell and...or not. Just keep making awesome videos guys. And stay safe.

[@pyroe87]

You should get a royalty for using this music! The video is perfect for it.

[@MM-ts2fi]

I miss the old MA crew. Sigh.

[@outdoorsteve4388]

Danny. Would love to know your workout routines.

[@Simssss888]

Ferrata higher than C/D are not interesting for me anymore. because up to that point you can freeclimb most of it on the rock. At a higher grade you have to pull on the cable which isn't fun at all then

[@xsteevox]

Chumbawamba shoutout

[@Paramedic772]

Awesome video !

[@jpmmustonen]

Loen is really nice. Did You guys go to Skåla?

[@erikseymour1]

Always a good time

[@PipiPopo-b8g]

Love the video and the consistent uploads! may I ask what shoes your wearing?

[@peterf557]

Looks like Scarpa Ribelle Run Kalibra’s to me. I use them for all my scrambling.

[@samlarsen7685]

Looked fun! Those long C/D sections get exhausting. But it looks like you missed the most difficult part by taking the ladder (5:21). I'm sure I would have done the same.

[@PoweredLaces]

The Tyson sequel!

[@ClimbMitBourbon]

Give us the tram footy!!!

[@richardpegg9265]

sorry - might be missing the point here but i thought the point of via ferrata was you try to use the rock and the cable is just the safety line - that is certainly the approach i've always taken. ladders are one thing, but just hauling yourself up the cable - think you might of rather missed the fun of the climb. but we all have our ways. atb

[@christinerolle3876]

Woohoo...!!awesome Danyy😊

[@trukweaz]

"thats a no for me, dog"

[@red6743]

Looooove the troll @ 8:15

[@Beukdeup]

Hey man, hopefully I’m not “that guy,” but those look like aluminum carabiners. You should really have steel to be on those cables.

[@wolfeadventures]

6:10 hard pass. You got a brass set my friend. Congrats. Killer trip.

[@jcee2259]

Europe is where visitors may expect to find dangerous routes have fixed ladders, steel cables, and other hard points to rig. Stupidity can overcome all protection with respect to Ragnarok.

[@MrSandyPants128]

Danny is the Manny

[@MakoBlitz]

sweet climb!

[@bradleykelsey5156]

Let's go!!!!!

[@scblue01]

No via ferratas on the Isle of Skye, just a teensy little traverse, finish by lunchtime. Make great YT, your theme tune played on bag pipes. The Cuillins are calling...

[@AK-ContentCreatIon]

Cool vid! "F" like f-ed up!! well done! NICE!

[@runuphill]

Or... Fail = Death.

[@olivierzozo]

Is it me or did I just saw a robot walk on the rocky trail ?

[@tkmjees]

Bros who peak together stay together. You missed the opportunity of holding hands when you did it though.

[@johnsadventures]

High five for the “proper” KZbin checkin! 😂

[@robertwynkoop7112]

Danny, these camera angles make you (and everyone there) out of their f@$53ing minds.... righteous mediocre adventure time....

Storartet!

[@nieklegdeur]

If you fall on a via ferrata with that equipment, you would not be able to upload anymore. If you are extremely lucky you will end up like a vegetable, but you will probably end up dead. In my opinion its fine if you want to do this, but by uploading it you might encourage one or more people to replicate what you do... Please take this into consideration. It would be cool if you would lead by example when it comes to safety.

[@BearPlane747]

Like first then watch

[@fiarandompenaltygeneratorm5044]

Always.

[@papierluchs1434]

Doing a via Ferata only on slings is super dangerous and should never be done. The forces during a fall a way to high

[@J.D.M.]

Too stressed to be blessed

[@SergieRachmaninoff]

You don't have gear that will ensure you live but are just injured... You have gear that can literally kill you. Falling even a short distance on dyneema slings is a terrible idea. There's a reason Via Ferrata kit exists.

[@cowymtber]

Ok, so would you say: If one can do Ragnarok, one could do Matterhorn? Danny?

[@domesticterrorist483]

No, plenty of places to fall to your death on the Matterhorn unless you have a partner and a rope with gear to set protection. Plus you need to do a few rappels and need to be stable in very exposed sections. The Matterhorn is not a via ferrata, only some few sections have fixed ropes. The ropes are 6 cm in diameter. You also need crampons and ice axe and know how to use them (last 150m to the summit).

[@cowymtber]

@@domesticterrorist483 Have you climbed it?

[@domesticterrorist483]

@@cowymtber Twice by two different routes, both decending via the Hornli. Worth doing but don't underestimate the overall effort required even though the Hornli is technically easy. Lightening is also a risk in the afternoon. Go for it, but prepare well and you will be fine.

[@ViaFerrataCH]

They have already done the Matterhorn

[@cowymtber]

@@domesticterrorist483 From the vids, it looked like those ropes go all the way up, at least to the last approach in the snow. Are you a guide? Do you know one that you could recommend?

[@kevinbyrne9344]

Whatever about risking yourself using knotted dyneema slings, consider how you might encourage others to do the same. If you're doing that, at least point out to viewers what risk you're taking and how stupid many would consider it.

[@alpinewonders]

"The Most Difficult Via Ferrata in Europe" - had you turned left and done the E/F section. But you turned right. There are tons of D grade Via ferratas in the Alps. But you knew that didn`t you?

[@MtJochem]

Maybe it's a good idea to search for that old video of via ferrata falls on slings only ( Via Ferrata Accidents - here is what happens to 80kg of dead weight being dropped). That was pretty dangerous what you did out there!(and IMO you should reconsider posting this.)

[@jimfo1982]

[@diederikvb8287]

I had no idea he wasn't using a via ferrata set. This is honestly pretty fucking stupid. He would've broken his back if he had fallen. Pretty sure Loen Active (the company responsible for the route) isn't really happy with this type of behaviour either.

[@domesticterrorist483]

Feck off with yor censorship crap.

[@no____-____ah]

This is super sketchy, plus he's got knots in it, weakening it even further. Can't believe he doesn't have such basic climbing knowledge.

[@diederikvb8287]

@@no____-____ah And he would break his back if the sling actually holds.

[@damienteney]

I thought the F rating meant "facile", easy in French. (???)

[@Blato_]

And it does but on a different difficulty scale (Alpine scale). Via ferrata ratings go from A to F (or G?), where A is the easiest and F is the hardest

[@MtJochem]

@@Blato_ I France Via Ferratas have the same rating system, F (facile) to ED (Extreme Difficile). I would rate this one as Difficile, maybe Tres Difficile, hard to judge. But it doesn't look like the hardest in the world, by far. It still looks like a lot of fun! BTW, Danny, I think you have a lot of comments incoming on your gear. That was very dangerous, what you did there with your gear choice! Was is only two slings and biners, or was there at least a screamer in between?

[@ViaFerrataCH]

G is the hardest but there are very few​@@Blato_
