The Story Of Marc Andre - The Alpinist That Pushed The Boundaries Of Climbing

Legendary alpinist Marc-Andre pushed the boundaries of climbing further than
was ever thought possible before his life was tragically cut short.
This is the story of his final climb.
The Alpinist is in UK & Irish cinemas now.

Marc-Andre Leclerc has to be the greatest climber ever. I doubt anyone will ever actually beat him. They would be superhuman if they did. I can’t see it happening.

[@bs1820]

I’ve watched the film 5 times now. I’ve never missed someone who I’ve never known, and I think humanity has a big hole in it with Marc Andre not here. There’s no contemporary climbers that I’ve really found any connection with - Ueli Steck (RIP) sprinting up mountains, Nims conducting military operations to conquer peaks, to name two - but there was something about Marc Andre’s approach which rang real hard with me. He had such a deep appreciation and love for the mountains that was so pure and true. He wasn’t motivated by fame or glory or his ego. He did it for the experience of being, for the wonder and amazement, and for communion and oneness with the mountains. It’s fucking beautiful man, and I’m tearing up just thinking about it. What a guy.

[@GManStritz8]

I couldn’t have said it any better. He was tried and true. It’s amazing when a human comes along and reminds us that what we thought was possible, is reimagined. He fills me with zest and spirit just simply thinking and reading about him.

I think that many people have such an approach, so they do shitty ascents as they do not need to prove anything, so they have no sponsors and make no movies.

[@T1tusCr0w]

I’m 50. My best friend Andrew died when I was 23 he was 21. He was a truly good guy. Didn’t give a fk about money & advancement. Did a degree in economics then instead of doing his PhD he dropped out to be a manager of a whiskey shop. Because he loved old whiskeys & meeting new people. He also happened to be a world class guitarist although he passed it off like it was nothing special. I had forgotten his Aura but this film reminded me. There are some souls that come into this place that just aren’t made for this world. But we don’t mock them or ridicule them. Instead they remind us of what we should be. They just refuse to take part in the nonsense..

[@teaaet1]

I'm from a small city in Illinois. Ive been watching the Netflix title "The Alpinist". I now reside in NM, and I trail walk with my teenage son, small foothills at the very most vertical. It gets harrowing for me on these molehills. I watched this guy and got a lump in my throat and teary-eyed at the rawness of his commitment and just the joy that his solo climbs brought to him. I'm not an avid outdoorsman by any stretch of the imagination, but man......the skill and perfection of what he accomplished, in the shadows of the limelight. I'm really at a loss for words for what I saw. The humbleness, like a walk in the park attitude. This guy was special. R.I.P. Marc.

[@trawlins396]

He was a truly genuine spirit. I just watched it too. There was no ego or artifice w him. He belonged to a different era in time. Free and at one w nature. Reminds me of an ald quote I saw once about a unicorn. *"Hunted by many, tamed by few. Wild and free I'll always be."*

I dont Know Marc personally, but I feel like if he had to choose, he wouldn't want to die any other way than on the mountains. He felt truly home to mountains and now he will literally be there forever. He will rest where he felt most alive. I wish he was still here though, he is such an inspiration to me.

[@schwabra]

For what my opinion is worth: I watched and found myself relating to and just liking Marc. I am at a much later stage of life than he, but have so much respect for anyone rising to this caliber of their passion. My greatest tribute to this young man is to envy those blessed to have seen and known him. He more than inspired, he resonated "Do what you love and love what you do."

Yep he was unique as a human being, as an Alpinist I would say threre are at least 30 guys on that level. Sadly a lot of them die young like David Lama and Auer who were at the most elite levels of Alpinism there is. A lot of these mountaineers have great characters

[@CoolaJokern]

@@listrahtes There isn't 30 guys on Marc's level, not even close. If there was we'd have 30 movies just like the alpinist. There isn't even one at the moment I'd say in terms of his full package. He made the jaws of some of the boldest soloists in the world drop with his audacity. If you make Alex Honnold of all people marvel at your fearlessness at some of the stuff you're doing you're not exactly just one out of a few dozens. Are there climbers that are as technical as him? Sure. Are there any that are both as technical, well rounded, fearless and who can put it all together like he did at that age on such difficult terrain? And not just in theory who is actually doing it right now? I can't think of any.

Marc-Andre Leclerc didn't make any mistake in his art any more than an artist who is outside working on a painting when an airliner crashes into the artist, explodes and obliterates him/her. Sometimes one is just in the wrong place at the wrong time, fate intervenes and there is nothing you can do about it. RIP Ryan Johnson and Marc-Andre Leclerc for following your dreams and aspirations. You're both an inspiration for us mere mortals. Thank you.
