Magnus, never hesitate to publish these not-so-successful videos. I could easily watch you swing on that boulder for two straight hours. This is exactly why we like this channel. Keep it up.

[@MR-MR-ud5oo]

A true Viking

[@lunaticz0r]

im not sure as im not the biggest follower but how cool would a livestream for subs be? or maybe paid stream, or maybe free with stuff you can do (twitch has those emojis you can buy from the channel etc).

[@Mambafpv]

i was also ready to sit here watching him swing on that boulder for a bit longer hahaaa i was fully invested

[@gbouldering]

This video was awesome for once I could relate except I struggle on 6C not 7C 🥴

[@jndajuicemane]

I was definitely glued to this episode, it had an element of drama to it. And while Magnus didn't get the send, it's still super impressive to even give that many solid attempts on a problem like that. Made me think I could gain from giving more attempts before moving on.

[@joegartland]

Not in a sadistic way, but it was lowkey kinda fun watching you slowly losing all your morale because it showed you at your highest and your lowest and also how your climbing changed with your confidence. It all felt very human if you know what I mean, was nice to see something so raw and honest

[@RCjee304]

Magnus- I don't like getting stuck at one boulder Also Magnus- Attempts the next boulder 20 times

[@Epicalyx1]

That’s because no one likes slab 😂

[@gengu467]

but also 20 attempts on that weird move might take less time than 5 tries on the slab cus the weird move he can just crank out attempts

[@neaituppi7306]

In Norway stuck means not being able to do something. So you keep doing it until you can.

[@nilsp9426]

He never said he doesn't like trying. Just the result doesn't suit him.

[@chicken29843]

​@@Epicalyx1I still don't understand the slab hate maybe I'm not good enough to understand but there's a lot of cool shit on slab that you just couldn't do on a significant overhang

[@wolffgirrl]

This was hard to watch honestly, because it was confronting seeing you slowly become more negative when you're usually so fun and positive - then I realised that it's because I'm not used to seeing creators be so genuinely HUMAN and it was actually really nice to see someone just being a real, normal person going through it like we all do. Thanks for the video, Mag!

[@sambuss7764]

"I wonder if that's even possible, I'll have to take off my shirt" is the most Magnus thing I've ever heard 😂

[@themostamazingblaine]

I started bouldering a months ago and one thing I didn’t realize is how everyone just has bad sessions. It’s cool seeing a video of even a high level climber going through a totally normal struggle, I actually appreciate this so much more than a video flashing everything!

[@Dornul]

Respect for posting it when it would've been so easy to hide a session like this. I find it so nice to see an honest, transparent session like this. Even though you didn't send all the problems, it still shows perseverance and great effort!

[@simbad3311]

Was think exactly the same. From time to time he need to put online videos like this one for all climbers, proffesionals or amateurs. Everyone need to see it. Every climber can find self in this video, much or lees. Kepp it movin Magnus and yeahh i 100% agree for China, i would like to see Gyms there. I fell they are awesome and bigger than US/EU with alot strange problems that would be only dream to climb all.💪✌️

[@sageraptor12025]

Magnus solving a V10 and calling it his worst session is the most humbling part of the whole video

[@BiggieChungulus]

Yeah he's capable of projecting v14's outdoor and sending some v12's at insane gyms that have difficulties that high.

[@Flopsaurus]

He normally flashes V10s

[@Loveyogaanatomy]

I really liked this video a lot. I found it inspiring and humorous at the same time. It's brilliant to see how committed you are to solving a problem and that is something great for me to take away. I think I way too often give up on a climb as just being too hard for me at the moment. I will now try many more times, but being honest, maybe not as many as you did on the yellow climb :) Respect!

[@ivarforsberg81]

I remember a few years ago when Anton said, "Your attitude towards your bad sessions should be, today I'm bad to realize that other times I'm good, becauce you can't fell good all the time." Think of that. That man has got some wisdome in the tank!

[@HansMaximum]

True words. I came back after a heinous injury with no climbing for 4 months and light weight training (as prescribed) and Hot Damn! I was having difficulty working v3's. Slow progression to get back I'm sure.

[@giannilucchesi8992]

im just now getting back into climbing from a bad finger injury that took me out for five months, its pretty demotivating not being able to climb grades I used to think were easy😅. Can't have the good sessions without the bad sessions though

[@TheBjornEman]

@@HansMaximum had a shoulder injury and had to slowly build up again, went to a different climbing gym to do so and it was honestly fun to see myself progress again

To err is Human. Good for him to post it up any ways.

[@pratikbothra6768]

Magnus waiting for the right moment for dropping the Toby Roberts collab has paid off. Congrats to Toby, and congrats to Magnus for the patience.

[@ramsessiereveld2824]

i think it's great showing these sessions! it shows your problemsolving, curse-vocabulary, and it shows everyone it's okay to not send for now. we'll be back, and so the *bleep* will you.

[@sp_danger1729]

You're damn right! 😂

[@golyx]

The editor of this video deserves a lot of credit, this is so much more enjoyable thanks to how well it is edited. I literally laughed out loud at the 16:30 blue boulder edit, well done.

[@Loveyogaanatomy]

Me too. Even laughed out loud again when I rewatched it.

[@enricopiazza2973]

and the gradual darkening of the scene at the very end, when you can overhear "my ego is bruised a little bit" haha - Well done Markus Skaane!

[@Pollyjpocket]

im so glad you posted this. some sessions are just tough mentally and physically and it's hard to walk away after throwing yourself at the wall and feeling like you didn't "accomplish" much (though there is a lot accomplished by climbing even without a top). thanks for being vulnerable, Magnus!

[@Rickdegraaf]

The fade in and out edited style is a really neat addition.

[@kroonoss]

It's really good to see you struggle sometimes with boulders. Normally you just look like superhuman. This type of content is not boring at all

[@yanniymj]

the build up to the fall at 16:32 was comedic masterpiece :D the way you describe how friction dependend that 2nd hold is, then the music kicks in and gets exciting, and then the fall :D

[@sinister_lefty]

That got me crying laughing!

[@Wrakhen]

I really appreciate you showing a not so great session. It does show a more realistic point of view and not you just succeeding everything after the first couple tries. Keep on with the amazing work! I would like to see some videos of you climbing in Rumney, New Hampshire simply because that is where I have the most outdoor experience and there is plenty of different route for you to try.

[@lucas7370]

This is really good and rare climbing footage, you don’t see a lot of climbers on KZbin showing, what’s in every climbers sessions once in a while. The mental game of a bad session.

[@serenitysparkteam3218]

As a new climber who literally has these moments on the simplest boulders in the gym every time I climb, thank you so much for posting it. It's the first time I've found one of your videos not just hugely enjoyable but relatable too ❤

[@ProtectYaBack]

Would be so cool to see some outdoor climbing again! Lofoten, Flatanger, Sogndal and so on.

[@olivierribordy1663]

I'd love to see Magnus in Flatanger to see some of the "easier" routes in the cave!

[@elyjahwood3596]

maybe switch it up and go to NZ! Castle Hill has thousands of the best boulders

[@clemenskarpf5859]

Totally agree, flatanger would be awesome! Maybe with stefano, Adam, Jakob or Seb, to give us an idea how insane this cave actually is?😅 Coming from Austria, naturally i would like to watch a collab of you and Jakob Schubert in Austria or Norway, i mean he bouldered a 9a, sport climbed 9c, and managed two olympic medals, quite insane if you asked me 😆

[@Colton_Chehowy]

I love how much this session beat you up. It shows how human you are. Inspires us to try harder. And is extremely interesting to watch you keeo trying and trying these problems in slightly different ways. What a real session. Brilliant. :)

[@milesdevlin7547]

I've been a Magnus fan for a while now, this is one of your best videos ever man. Not only are the classic style bouldering videos my favorite, but your communication with the audience and just the cohesiveness of the narrative and theme of a 'bad session' was so interesting, even if you didn't go in with that intention. Editing, top notch, just a banger. This was so cool to watch, thank you Magnus!

[@mattwarrenAV]

This guy gets it

[@snellerdan]

Really cool that u talked so openly about failure and pressure of performance. It's such a common thing in climbing. We all struggle with it. Thanks Magnus!

[@michimaybe]

21:00 Thanks for showing the beauty in the struggle! I watched the entire video 💯

[@sambarl326]

this is one of my favourite MM videos ever, It's great to see someone that good try hard and the persistence and drive to keep attempting. This video more than any has showed me how he has got to where he is today. Would love to see more like this in the future. It's also very relatable, I'm sure this is closer to most peoples normal sessions, which makes me feel better about my bad climbing days.

[@lizardmanbebo]

This has been one of my more favorite videos I've seen in a while. I've been feeling like this pretty often due to injuries and lack of improvement in my climbing, so it's really relatable and cool to see.

[@LennyMtz]

I enjoy these videos where you struggle equally, if not more, than the other videos where you send everything. Its definitely relatable, and its my favorite part of climbing. The challenge, the mental battle, the emotional struggle, and the physical. I enjoy watching you climb no matter the result. Great effort

[@j.v.9936]

that was one of the best videos of yours. it’s important to get a sense of limitations. When we see one video after another, of you attempting a problem and managing it after a few tries, we don’t get a sense of difficulty. You say something is difficult, but we „know“ it’s only as difficult as the other boulders you managed. This was good.

[@megangilmer3911]

The anticlimax at 16:33 was so well edited though ahahaha, good job showing up even when the day sucks, Magnus!!

[@pashteto]

16:33 that just pure tragic comedy. With all the love and respect. I cant imagine myself even trying any of these problems

[@ayuminor]

I was convinced the inspirational music when he sticks the paddle sequence was leading to a dropped top as well 😅

[@nirajansubedi5860]

this was an amazing video. I went to a climbing gym in Japan for the first time yesterday, before this I was climbing in the Netherlands . I could do a hard V6 there but in Japan i could barely do the lower grades. crushed my confidence. Watching this really cheered me up knowing its not just always a physical battle, theres a big big mental side to it. Thanks for sharing this video. Much love

[@Ben_Tennis]

I can only do "moyen" which is the 2nd of 7 levels at my gym haha😅 enjoy watching videos of what could be though....in 30 years of practice maybe💀

[@dieselrugg]

Magnus. I feel this session in my soul. I'm nearing 50 years old and I typically boulder with guys in their 20s. I have days where I just have to walk away due to low power...but other days, I"m showing the young guys what old man strength can do. I've found the older I get, the better I need to eat, the better quality sleep I need, and the better I need to warm up....If I want to have good sessions. Thanks for sharing your bad day.

I started climbing (bouldering) at the end of 2023 with a friend. That friend isn't climbing anymore. Now I climb alone. But after finding Magnus and his channel, I don't feel alone at the gym. I feel like Magnus has my back and is rooting for me.

[@couchor]

Trying that one boulder endlessly brought me fond memories of Anton's videos where he tries to learn new tricks 200+ times.

[@alis_the_kiwi]

I'm an extreme beginner, and your videos are really motivating for me. Thank you for showing both your best clears and worst sessions, it's important to remember that bad days are normal ( and alright ) too. You trying over and over again is something I REALLY look up to. Thanks :)

dont stop making videos like this. i love this - trying hard boulders over and over again, looking for a way to solve the problem. thats the real bouldering and thats good. I love it :)

[@pony381]

MORE Magnus

[@JuCoGamer]

MORE MORE MORE MORE

[@bibibo743]

Total armchair climber here, just had a thought though. When failing over and over again your brain starts learning how to fall better and better. So you kind of lean towards a side or have spin that you didn't have at the start, so completing it becomes harder, but falling becomes easier and safer. Kind of reminds me of learning to kickflip, you get into a rut and going for it becomes harder and harder. Coming back the next day things feel fresh again and the body isn't so tired or subconsciously trying to keep you safe, and you can progress.

[@Voidload]

Man this was SO relatable... When I am with friends this does not happen to me very often but when I go alone and i have too much time thinking in the rests so I only think to myself about the boulder/ autobelay lead problems... Yeah it can get tough. ALSO this was AMAZINGLY cut. I really love the overlapping "Magnus ghosts" it shows how long you have been there trying almost like if I was in a movie. It kind of brings that "old school" good vibe in this video. I can't describe it enough but this was one of my more favourite videos of yours Magnus. Please be encouraged to do more and remember that you are watched (at least partially) because of your persona and not just your high level of climbing!

[@MR-MR-ud5oo]

That's because you are "cheating" when you are with them. Everyone who can do incredible or "superior" things when others are around, since they/you are taking advantage of the support system that exists when other Humans are around, compared to when you are alone. When you are alone, you are in in a vacuum, and will see your OBJECTIVE & TRUE abilities limit. In this case (climbing) you are going to get the advantage of having immediate & constant feedback about what to and not to do, even if no one said a single word to you. But when you are alone, it's all on you baby; welcome to the world of reality. Embrace it, for in it, you will find Truth. ;)

[@Voidload]

@@MR-MR-ud5oo you can't make a child alone in vacuum... teamwork has always been a thing and there is nothing wrong about it. But if you enjoy being alone because that makes you better than I am happy for you

[@viccigillett5477]

Nice one Magnus. Was a good video, you seemed different in this one and was great to watch. Just seemed like someone having a normal sesh but a bit of a bad day. We all get them so thanks for sharing the video. Your determination is awesome haha. Cheers `Dude.

[@HannaSis]

Only Magnus would apologize for swearing 😆 But on a real note, it's actually very inspiring to see such a talented climber struggle on a project. It really makes me feel like it's okay when I don't flash every project in my own range. Thanks for uploading this Magnus

[@cyborgraptor1778]

It's impressive he automatically swears in English. He's in that mode for filming I guess.

[@Bot_967]

this feels like a proper boulder gym session video. loads of doubt, negative self talk, frustration, glimmers of hope, continuous try hard, exhaustion, and cursing.

[@k.aslesen5271]

"its 1 am, I should probably quit..." yeah same, Magnus, its almost 1.30 am as I finish up watching this video. It is admirable to see you work on problems, both the ones you flash and the ones that need more work

[@amberblackford9999]

Watching you just keep trying even though you weren’t able to send was incredibly cool. I enjoyed your perseverance. It shows the kind of dedication and character it takes to be a professional athlete. Good job showing a more vulnerable side of you, I respect that so much.

[@Sigrt]

Filming outdoors in Norway is a good idea. We have the best nature, and I think people in general are interested in seeing you climb in your own country.

Thanks for being so raw and honest in posting this video Magnus. I know a lot of people can relate to having "off days" in every aspect of life

[@Zkel__]

Seeing a video of you in Patagonia would be so awesome. its always been on my bucket list.

[@Munchables]

Would love to see an episode 2 of this video seeing you projecting the two boulders you were stuck on - seeing pros getting stuck but breaking through is honestly really reassuring!

[@SanguisDeathMetal]

At around the 20m40s mark you said you were debating whether or not to publish this video, but I'm actually really glad you did. These types of videos show the rest of us that it is perfectly okay to fail on a boulder for a session. As a climber who's long been trying to break into 7A-7A+, I've noticed that I really need to learn how to persevere despite multiple failed attempts and to just keep trying until I find a move that works. After all, that's the whole point about projecting, and it is a necessary lesson to learn if I want to improve further. I feel that not a lot of climbers on youtube show the entire projecting process properly, even though I'm pretty sure most good climbers (7A and up, in my mind) will have had to go through that struggle at one point in time.

[@helpjack8843]

I find that one of the most beautiful aspects of climbing is that everyone struggles, no matter how hard they climb. In fact, "good" climbers sending higher grades probably struggle even more than those of us at lower grades. They know how to struggle right, struggle smart, and struggle often. I constantly fall into the trap of not truly pushing myself, especially on slab, and give up on climbs after like 5 attempts. I'd probably be better than I am today if every time I wanted to give up I made myself give it another good try looking for a new solution. @SanguisDeathMetal Good luck on your climbing journey. We all have so much to learn from amazing climbers like Magnus, and I appreciate seeing people like you in the comments thinking critically about their own climbing. You can get 7A+ and so much more when you take it step by step improving your technique incessantly. Have a good day friend, you're a great part of this community. p.s. The reason you can't send your project is your feet. It's always the feet.

[@creative_danik]

Magnus, thank you for this video! Often, people show only their best attempts, their best work, their most successful episodes of life on KZbin. And unfortunately, many people who watch these videos think that making mistakes, failing, and sometimes giving up is a sign of weakness, a sign that they are failures. But in reality, it's not a sign of weakness. There are hard days, there are mistakes, mental overload, etc. It's normal to fail. The main thing is not to lose faith in yourself and keep going. You, one of the most amazing climbers in the world, are not afraid to show your failed attempts, and it is inspiring! Thank you for being so open and honest. I'm sure most of your viewers appreciated it! I'm sure we will soon see a video of how the black and red bolders obeyed you!

[@asdefs75]

Hi

[@evagorasioannou7505]

This was such an amazing video to watch and I loved seeing you try, try and try again, until you had given it your all. Your worst session was still full of so much strength. I love these simple "Magnus goes bouldering" videos.

[@kilianhofmann2495]

I've been struggling in my last few sessions, probably did not give myself enough time to rest. Seeing you have bad days as well and "normalizing struggles" is honestly pretty nice to see. You don't often see that from big influencers, very refreshing. Thanks magnus, love your magcontent! almost as much as your magdust :D

[@SphixxMisc]

As someone who goes to war with himself mentally everyday I really loved this video. I out perform others on a regular basis and when I don't I tend to fall apart forgetting that even the best of the best (being the ones i look up to, not myself) do indeed struggle. I would love to see more videos of great athletes in many sports post videos of their bad days and their genuine reactions and thoughts during them. Thankyou. Videos like this mean a lot to me and although i don't idolise anyone, i look up to people like you.

[@fredmolenda3114]

It's so nice to see someone as strong as Magnus having a tough day. Yesterday I spent 2h trying to record a video on a V7 I already sent but I just can't seem to be able to get it in video haha. I feel much better now, I hope he sends these problems on his next session on them. it definitely puts climbing grades to perspective.

[@TarantulaRookie]

as a low level climber myself, I love watching videos like this, where the effort and problems of sending are a reality no matter your skill level. These are honest videos and ones that connect with climbers im sure.

[@leonardhaworth5632]

In reference to your question, it would be cool to see a climbing tour of Norway, showing us some of the classic spots and interesting bits and pieces outdoors that are legendary or maybe hidden gems

[@Entharr]

Currently unable to climb due to a finger pulley injury, so instead living vicariously through the Olympics and KZbin. Believe me, this is still awesome to watch! It's good to know that even the best have bad days, much respect for persevering and giving it your everything. Totally relate to the frustration even if it's on a completely different level of skill!

Come to Switzerland and do a collab with one of our most famous climber and legend Fred Nicole ! It would be so awesome to see you tryhard on one of those very hard (and also old school) boulders (like " La Danse des Balrogs", or "Radja" or even "Joyeux Léon") or even explore some of our most famous and hard routes all over Switzerland ! I would love to see you climb outside more ! Cheers from Switzerland !

[@Aekross1]

12:00 South America would be really cool for a video man. The climbing scene in Argentina is pretty big with some nice gyms in Buenos Aires

[@TheMattyPrince]

One of the biggest issues with the internet nowadays is that influencers only post the "best bits" of their lives, meaning it gives an over glamorous summary of their lives and leads to unrealistic expectations from their viewers. Too many times have I seen people come to the bouldering gym thinking that they will be able to climb like Magnus, then never return when they realise how hard it is, and that the real fun of bouldering is the journey of a project and watching yourself improve, not about what grade you can climb. I enjoyed this video BECAUSE it showed the other side, so keep it up! And definitely don't shy away from posting similar stuff in the future!

[@pilzguy3948]

I think there are a lot of beautiful sport climbing spots deep in the alps and I don't know if you are even interested in the beauty of the mountains but with the hut infrastructure of the alps I believe it would be incredible to see you check out a few spots all around the alps and test the different types of rock these magnificent Mountains have to offer (from the granite (i.e. around the Bergell) to the sharp lime stone of the western alps). This would also grant the chance to ask many climbing professionals for Cooperations because you can find quite a lot of them around the alps, so the opportunity that at least someone has got the time and wants to collaborate with you. Looking forward to see what the other audience members think about this idea, but I myself am so attached to the alps that it would be great to see you visiting them and getting around a bit! And no matter what you end up doing, I ve been following your channel for quite some time and am super stoked to see you uploading these oldschool type of sessions, big love from Konstanz Germany!!!

I am smiling the whole way through at 14 minutes. It is so hilarious to see Magnus try so hard and swear while having the dramatic blues music in the background. so funny. thanks for sharing the failures

Hey Magnus, it would be cool to see you do a "road trip" to the national parks in the US and do some of the unique climbing spots they have!

[@courtneyliz8522]

I was just thinking this! Acadia National Park in Maine would be so cool. Off the beaten path and relatively unknown, would make for a great video

Magnus! You've helped me tons maintaining my fitness while doing overnight shifts. Your videos have been a constant help. If your intent is to try and expand, it would be fun to see you doing a channel with videos from outside-in-nature locations. While going out to different countries / experiences, taking a half a day out somewhere checking out bouldering spots and highlighting places for tourism + content would be really sweet! Might be able to get tours from individual staff from agencies / wilderness conservation projects to explore icey wilderness / ravines / hidden caves like you'd said in China, or in Mexico, let alone spots in the USA and in Europe. Thank you for years of amazing content!

It'd be cool to see a collaboration with a female climber!

My favorite thing is watching you make progress and trying to solve. Even if it doesnt end in completion. Its nice and satisfying but not what makes watching you great. Its the work ethic and thought put into the problems and having fun with it.

The channel should be renamed to True Magnus

[@helpjack8843]

We've never seen true magnus.

I've been having a pretty difficult time lately, but thankfully climbing is the one thing really holding me together. As of this week watching your videos has brought a lot of motivation back into my life, I love watching them as they're super wholesome and help me so much with my constant strive to be the best climber I can be. I can't wait to apply many things I've learned through you in tomorrow's climbing session - really thank you so much for your content! I also realized I need a holiday and decided this morning that I'll take a trip to your gym this or next month - super stoked! And to answer your question, it would be fantastical if you would come to Beest Boulders in the Netherlands! The smaller location in Amsterdam, Het Lab, has a much nicer vibe than the bigger one imo, and I love both locations in Den Haag. Energiehaven in Utrecht is very cool as well. :)

Even Magnus can fall into the trap of doing 4000 tries on an exhausting boulder and then be surprised the rest of the session is ruined 😂 Laches are sooooo demanding on every single part of the body 😮‍💨

[@KauravaIII]

I was was watching you during exercising, it feels quite motivating despite not achieving theses boulders. The important part for me, is the effort you put into your commitment, the work done, even if it's not a top. Thanks Magnus for your humility, keep going!
