Passed by Free Solo Climber - Dark Shadows, Red Rocks, NV
ChaosEngineI'm not really a climber, but isn't this a pretty easy route for an experienced climber?
Quick google-fu rates it at 5.8, which is not that hard (at least, based on stuff I've climbed on an indoor wall).
Happy to be corrected on this.
Absolutely...the important question is "how fast is he going down?"
Especially when the EIA candidate decides to climb above someone who is taking reasonable care. Should he fall, there's a pretty good chance he's going to injure or take someone else with him now. He's entitled to risk his own life (although I'd not be happy about paying for his hospital bills). But he needs to take his own path, rather than put others at risk.

C-noteYou are right. The free-climber does have to go home.
On a bad day, you can get passed by the free-climber twice.

Time-Lapse Of Fastest Scaling Of "The Nose" on El Capitan
greatgooglymoogly says...The difficulty of each climb are vastly different. Lover's leap is easy difficulty, never any danger of falling for skilled climbers. The Nose is usually aided, or placing gear in cracks to hold body weight directly for the incredibly hard parts. This is much slower. Comparing feet per minute doesn't make any sense, even between two similar climbs.
Around 20' per minute is clearly pretty damn fast, but remember, Dan Osman climbed lovers leap, >400' of similar climbing in just over 4 minutes, almost 100' per minute....without ropes or assistance. I wonder what his record would have been on the nose.

AshenkaseIts possible a few were planted for documentary purposes. If you watch Honnolds videos you will see he has at least 2 or 3 camera guys planted on the faces he climbs. The majority are other climbers. You can see the two blow throw many camps on the way up.

eric3579Pretty sure they were other climbers. They defiantly look like other climbers. Don't think you can have support crews and claim a record like this.
I gather all those folks along the way were support crew? Not other climbers that these two just yelled "Later, bitches!" and they zoomed on by?

The Climb trailer - Crytek's terrifying new VR game
newtboySo...it's Crazy Climber 2.0? Looks pretty at least.
The video ends at 1:00, the other minute is static.
Insane 600ft Rope Swing in Greece!
newtboyLooks like a great time, but that's what killed Dan Osman, who essentially invented long line penduluming (and was one of the greatest free climbers ever).
