"Yeah, I'm a bit pumped" - Stefano as he shows us how his arms are undergoing Hulk transformation in real time.

[@Raftatv]

🤣

[@tronco1093]

No space for veins in Hulk's muscles

[@riccardoscalisi8942]

I come from the same town of Stefano and sometimes I saw him training at the gym and his forearms are really impressive, they look like the ones of a marble statue

[@mitch-lawless]

Love how Adam just popped up at the end for a handshake, the dude seems to be at every wall around the world at all times.

[@terraflow__bryanburdo4547]

Only the hard ones.

[@Diallende]

If your send it's hard enough the leyend sats Adam will appear asking for a handshake

[@MarkRozema-v9m]

If you yell three times loudly at just the right tone while climbing a crux it summons Adam Ondra.

[@pauldj6]

I don't know if I have ever wanted to see a climber send a route more than this

[@acidraver4636]

Same here!

[@martinondra6972]

I definitely wish him the same, but more than wanted to see him to send it I hope he keeps that positive attitude 🙂

[@CptShelby]

But why does he have to do a route that has already been done? There are so many, why not do one of his own?

[@pureXLNC]

@@CptShelby because Seb Bouin payed him a million dollars to complete silence so he can downgrade it to a 9b+ leaving him the only one to have climbed a 9c.

[@Greesher]

Ngl I teared up when Adam shook your hand near the end. What an amazing progression of skill man. Absolutely well done. Good luck next year

[@SCOclimbing]

Felt exactly the same! It was so great

[@Finkelfunk]

Adam is the type of person that would get super excited and happy to see someone send Silence. He wouldn't be mad about someone matching him, he'd love it. He wants to be right there when it happens so he can celebrate with him. Such a likable and humble person.

[@Daniele.Rossini]

at which point please?

[@SCOclimbing]

@@Daniele.Rossini 14:13

[@static_motion]

@@Finkelfunk I'm curious as to what his reaction would be if someone ended up downgrading Silence.

[@AceEebie]

You guys have absolutely crushed it with the filming and recording of this trip. It's the most I've enjoyed watching climbing for years!

[@valentinlaurent7225]

Same here, best modern climbing content I've ever watch by far!

[@butomakansabun]

Thank you for sharing this journey with us, Stefano & team. Fantastic production quality, climbing content and sprinkles of humour. Planning for a month-long expedition and filming must have been a lot of hard work, huge props to everyone involved. Good luck training for Silence, we're all cheering for you ! Allez !

[@toddgreen6862]

"No, I don't feel particularly tired." "This morning you woke up grunting 'Awwwwww!'" This series is so beautifully genuine and relatable. If it doesn't make you want to pull for Stefano to succeed, I don't know what will.

[@lucassmn1803]

This whole season was insanely good both in terms of video prod & climbing interest ! Keep up the good work Stefano, really happy to be able to follow you so closely through this project.

[@bearallan]

The Dawn of Climbing clip is so legendary 🤣

[@Anto74440]

looks like Charles Albert :D

[@neilgjohnson]

Fantastico!

[@nosongman]

Best part of all the trip

[@jonasbremer6674]

I love that the Adam is cheering you on.

[@RockClimberAlex]

Besides the epic climbing, it's really well edited, storyboarded and put together. Some high quality stuff, for sure.

[@terraflow__bryanburdo4547]

The New Level.

[@euphoria667]

14:35 - What did I just watch? Also, I need more of it. You might have to make it into a series lol, absolutely hilarious! The production quality of your videos is outstanding, Stefano. Looking forward to you hopefully sending Silence in the future.

[@carlswenson5403]

14:12 Gotta love how stoked Adam is to see someone repeat his route

[@rnedisc]

Damn, that's like the climbing world's version of the Schwarzenegger-Weathers handshake. So cool that Adam came.

[@quentincastelain8241]

Oh man ! Look at slow motion, so muuuuch loooove...

[@gunitt7985]

Stefano, you are wonderful, thank you for all your fantastic content... fantastic videos. Thank you

[@juliansteffens5177]

Seriously, I can't believe how you and Adam produce such high quality videos and share them with us for free. It's a gift I can't really comprehend and it makes me feel super grateful and experience climbing as the humble sport it is. Best of luck for the project, I'm sure you'll send it at some point!

[@quentincastelain8241]

true

[@gabethomas8123]

The value of this film transcends the worth of observing the sport of climbing. Stefano's approach to this route is like a master class in taoism, truly inspiring.

[@justingabriele3881]

Best of luck Stefano, you have the drive and talented to climb 9c

[@raphaelmardinli9921]

The last 30 seconds of the video are absolutely fantastic, they caught me totally off guard that was awesome ! This whole series about silence was stunning too of course! I especially loved the closer look at the holds Thanks for this great conclusion, can’t wait to see what you have to show next!

[@fanthomans2]

Man, your editors are worth every cent you are spending on them. Great videos, one of the best climbing channels out there.

[@davidetomasi1284]

Best serie of the year! Can't wait for season 2!

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

Absolutely gorgeous climbing, captured wonderfully. Amazing from everyone involved, a real blessing of a channel!

[@VelascoFlorencia]

This series is simply amazing! This is my favorite video so far because it brings all the story together and combines the inner story with the details of the climb beautifully. I loved listening to Sara talk about Stefano.

[@idoido9590]

This made me think i need to get better, not only physicaly, but maturing, i recall me getting so angry at a route, and stephano being so calm and not angry makes me think i got a long way to go. Thank you for this realisation.

[@davidbecker54]

It's crazy to see you so imprecise and uncomfortable on that second half burn. I don't mean this as a negative thing; it's just that you're always so composed and precise with your feet and movements and this route is causing you to really push yourself, which is so cool to watch!

[@Theantmang]

really pushing his endurance, and his max power. Its such a beautiful thing, cant wait till he gets it.

[@anassimandro034]

Stefano, sai, il tuo insegnamento più grande, per me, non risiede nel tuo modo MAGISTRALE di arrampicare... Ma nel tuo modo di ESSERE! Sei un atleta incredibile! La tua persona lo è, e questo ti fa tanto onore! Un abbraccio grande 💪🏻🤝🏻

[@alecesaris]

Le parole di Sara ti tratteggiano perfettamente e le tue qualità sono evidenti in questi splendidi video da Flatanger. Grazie! Sei un grande!

[@anonymousviewer2257]

Goes to show how climbing really is an expression of the climber. No two do it the same and the routes they set reflect that. Absolute respect to Stefano for giving us this awesome series. Send or no send, you are a beast.

[@pelfinho]

Great production and (obviously) climbing! Thanks for making this series. It is amazing to watch and follow your progress. Can't wait for you to send it next year :) Best of luck

[@dnrv4530]

Can’t wait for next year this series of videos were amazing

[@herbzenjiicht]

Man the production and filmmaking of the Silence series is incredible ! Hope so much you will send it next year and many more epic route. Please continue to post your progress on youtube

[@KombiLife]

you gave it a good crack this season mate, well done.

[@danwallis1984]

Wow such a fantastic film. Beautiful and amazing climbing. I can't wait for next year when you return. Well done.

[@ornulfkittelsen]

hah, "I am a bit pumped". damn. Really fun to see the progress and work here Stefano, thanks for sharing.

[@asgerbahnsennielsen711]

Thanks for taking us along for the process! this video series is bloody amazing and very well filmed! (not as well as your last video though hehe ;) ) and with a very nice tone! So cool to see Adam join you, and Pete helping out with the jamming! Even if you don't send the route: Amazing effort, and good on you! Getting psyked for getting on something hard myself! :)

[@martipv4473]

There has never been a season finale with a bigger cliffhanger ;). Can't wait for your send video next year!

[@lonesome3958]

Idk if we should expect a send next year, adam worked on that route like 4 years

[@masterpropper2485]

@@lonesome3958 But Stefano can immediately benefit from all the knowledge Adam had to acquire over these years.

[@lonesome3958]

@@masterpropper2485 yeah thats true, he doesnt need to figure out the beta. Idk tbh

[@leifnyland3767]

This whole season was absolutely awesome! The highlight was that video a little while ago that was just so much better than all the rest. I'm a little disappointed that we can't see the actual good climbers climb, but I guess someone has to record the best cameraman in the world fall from his proj.

[@angelojumped]

Strepitoso Stefano,davvero! E un montaggio video fenomenale. Chissà quante bestemmie e imprecazioni avranno dovuto tagliar fuori, soprattutto su quel primo crux. Poi con L’echo della caverna, l’avranno sentite per tutta la valle! ;) stefano sei un grande e tutta la troup, è stata una serie meravigliosa. Un augurio di cuore e dai dai dai che la portiamo a casa anche stavolta, a ca*zo di cane 😉

[@jaredasa626]

Serious contender for best climbing video series ever produced. Total class from start to finish. Also, Sara is awesome, and including her climbing and her point of view was great. Side note, her hair is amazing

[@Leo-ry6zh]

Can't wait to see how this journey ends, incredible thanks for bringing us along with you - especially tgat truly........ motivating ending

[@Chiesoo]

this was a hell of a ride to follow your progress. Now I even have a bigger grasp of how hard this route I. I wish you luck 'ext year!

[@sortilege4966]

Absolutely amazing work Stefano! You are such an inspiration. I love your chill and positive attitude while also being one of the most driven and focused climbers of our age. Also that part of the video about Sara was really beautiful, what she said about climbing and life really resonated. PS. That Dawn of climbing bit at the end was so unexpected, I was laughing out loud here, you are hilarious😂😂

[@memyselfandi520]

8:14 : what a beautiful capillarity of the forearms!!!😳💪💪 "I'll be back next year with more veins"

[@asonei3531]

the "caveman" clip, is that on the small pillar in front of the cave? I think I saw you and your team planning that scene when I visited the cave about 2 weeks ago (at least there was also a lot of crazy screaming ;))

[@bandols]

Such an inspirational climber and person. The positive attitude, drive, and kindness in your heart makes you so easy to cheer for and look up to.

[@jenskoster1260]

Dear Stefano, you write a great story of effort and progression. The route is the goal - the saying fits very well here. Already looking forward to next year. You are a great climber with a great team and sense of humor. Thank you!

[@ghsgidghj]

The best video series I have ever seen on KZbin. Thank you so much for making this and good luck with your next attempts.

[@jchendrix]

Nice work Stefano you will make it :) keep fighting

[@Andreyvu007]

I really like how the quality of your videos improve, yet still always have a funny side and arent too serious! Probs to your Crew! And of course to you for your awesome climbing!

[@lisa-koschat]

Great Effort! Congrats. A very enjoyable series that lets us see you trying, succeeding, failing and trying again.

[@michaelbraendel]

OMG Good job, Stefano! Looking forward to the sequel.

[@Tupley]

Not to take away from Adam by any means, but this video is so inspiring because someone else can climb as strong as Ondra, and he just proved it.

[@terraflow__bryanburdo4547]

Adam is a bit of the alien, Stefano one of us.

[@northernsoutherner2394]

Really excellent engaging video, loads of talent plus charm and wit on display. Well done and congrats on sending the side project!

[@tyrionas]

the dawn of climbing, that one totally got me 🤣 I am glad to see that you embraced the Ondra power scream on Silence though, it cannot be done any other way.

[@nicadvisor5589]

Complimenti Stefano, riesci davvero a trasmettere tanto dai tuoi video. Bellissimo il montaggio, la qualità, i contenuti ma soprattutto molto preziose le parole di Sara. Penso di non averti mai visto strillare così tanto su un progetto, tanta tanta stima e buon allenamento! PS: ovviamente il finale è una gemma rara!

[@HD-ty8ng]

Absolutely amazing production value, humor and unfathomable progression for an average climber like me. Andrea's commentary was beautiful. Good luck for next year and kudos to the whole team.

[@twinmike1]

The Dawn of Climbing ending is awesome! Seriously funny. Of course the serious climbing is also fantastic!

Great stuff Stefano, very fast progression and an awesome link to finish the trip off. Some power training particularly in extension (That drop to catch off the rounded pocket/dent) and you will send for sure. GO FOR IT!!!! Thaks for the videos everyone involved - fantastic entertainment 😀😀😀

Incredible progression! Hope you send it next year. It was awesome to be able to follow you. You are a superb athlete and climber, not just in skill, but by heart.

[@betwixt3193]

Superb set of videos tracking your progress Stefano. And great to see more of Sara and hear her ruminations on climbing. I will be interested to see what specific training you do to prepare yourself for returning to Silence (other than training kneebar strength!).

[@mihkelhint]

It is crazy how good your team is at filming and editing climbing. Because it really comes across how insanely good and strong you are, usually everything looks 10x more mundane and boring on film than it actually was. Or used to look I guess, in last couple of years the technical filming aspect of it seems to me like has really advanced hard with your team being like a prime example of how good it can get these days.

[@reesedj1]

Get at it- can’t wait for next year!

[@basjansen4932]

Amazing videos Stefano & team! Can't wait for the next trip or other projects. Also really nice to hear Sara comment on Stefano's climbing and climbing in general.
