Aren’t you afraid of germs?
Hi. I'm EBC web news editor in taiwan. We're interested in the video . if you can give the permission let us to use the video on our facebook and we will note resources in our news and tag your fanpage.Thank you!
冰琪 Hi, what do you want to use the video for ? I’m not on Facebook and don’t use Facebook. If I could get some further info before giving you permission would be great.
@@womble2378 We want to use this video to report the climbing wall. We will subtitle and mark the video as your permission.
冰琪 ok you have my permission, if you could provide me with a copy of the footage you use for me to view that would be great. ?
@@womble2378 No problem. Would you give us your email that we can send the video to you?
冰琪 hi that’s great to know, yes no worries it’s dubbersdoo@yahoo.co.uk Will look forward to your email. Thanks 👍🏼
Hey!! We have the same name!! (Can you subscribe to me)
What was the difficulty of this climb?
This is the crappy mount everst xddddd
this made me feel physically sick
Looks amazing
Jonathan Stroud it was the best ever!! I went and done it twice in a matter of two weeks lol. So so need to get trained up before my times up on this planet!!
Good on you mate hope to do it soon as you say life is too short
I think I’m just gonna stick with the rock climbing stuff in funderdome for now 😂😂😅
What part of gower are you here?
Kev Mac it’s Pennard just after kittle, bit of a mission to get launched from here but well worth it. You can head from 3 cliffs bay and head left from the coastline. 👍🏼
The four peapole who disliked this video are assholes
Hi Matthew, my name is Nicki and I work for a BBC programme called Close Calls On Camera. I'm really interested in featuring some of this footage in an episode about a sledging incident and would love to chat to you about this if possible! My number is 02380 710 725 or you can email me at nicki.wedgwood@topical.co.uk. Thanks!
Oh man, You gotta be kidding. Did your climbing partner really let you climb with that rope and this knot? Thanks for the video though, it looks great.
At 9:25, how did you not fall? Were your knees keeping you in place?
Grace Sawin it was so long ago I cannot remember lol. Watching it back I’m not sure how I didn’t fall lol I’d only just started climbing to 👌🏼
Grace Sawin could have been a slab
I'm also tempted to climb now...
Collin Hanlin you should definitely find yourself a centre and try it out 👌🏼
When you fall, what slows down the rope, is it a machine or a person, it would be difficult for a person to do that so I would imagine it's a machine, right?
Collin Hanlin it’s a person haha 👌🏼there are auto belay machines that can slow you down/stop you, but mostly it’s a person at the other end with a belay device who can lock the rope off. 👍🏼
5:57 lol get pranked
I'd never climb that scary bullshit wall
For my 15th birthday (recently) I climbed a 3 story tall wall :) looking forward to climbing this in the future great video dude
FoxyGrampaLol where was the 3 story wall? You should enjoy Excalibur it was well windy when we went out. Still an awesome experience though.
+Matthew Walmsley It was in a hotel and arcade in Mississippi :) I enjoyed climbing it
Nice, Mississippi! Keep on climbing and climb all you can 🤙🏼👌🏼 thanks for your comment about the video😎 enjoy your future routes and stay safe 👍🏼
+Matthew Walmsley You too man 😁
I can see my house (no joke :P)
Robbert N - I would love your house if it's that close to this 👌🏼
I went climbing that tower once i'm 13 and at half of the thing i went back...
I've gone the whole thing lol idk how I took the easiest one
How tall is this?
Cozy dash it's 40m as used an 80m rope
Matthew Walmsley thanks
4c this one ?!
The very last song, who did that remix and where can I find it??
It's midnight city mix by M83 👍🏼
what lvl was that wall, 5.11?
I think it was like a 5c
Ya pretty sure that was a slabby section on that side. Looks like the other side of the wall is overhung.
That climbing rope end though. Looks a little sketchy to me.
The end of the rope or the figure of 8 knot ?
Definitely the end of the rope you can see the inner core
+Thomas Shields, it was the centres rope :) back then I was a novice and only been climbing a couple of months. Good times!!
Song that starts at about 14:38 ?
hi it's midnight city by M83☺
sweet thanks!
my palms are sweaty lol
knees weak, arms are heavy?
what happens if you slip?
You get snagged about 10 feet down then get lowered by your belayer
Or keep climbing 😀
+DroningClimber so r u kinda free falling until you are 10 feet from the ground or is it you free fall for 10 feet and be how ever many feet from the ground say 50 feet up u fall and then at 40 feet u are caught and Lowered down. I am sorry if u get confused by this question I didn't know of another way to ask
+Sniper Monke you fall 10 feet, not 10 feet from the ground.
Well you fall below your last piece by an amount equal to how much you were above that piece plus how much the entire length of rope that is out will stretch (usually around 20-30%). So basically the higher you go the bigger but softer falls you take for the same distance above your last clip. Even when close to the ground though, the falls are still very soft.
Wow man... That rules...!
Cheers
Just watching this (especially around 5:35) makes my hands sweaty! So impressive.
Thanks 😜
I was hoping for a typical GoPro high 5 at the end. :C
wicked
Looks so fun! Holy crap man, I was scared for you, while you were at the top lol
Thanks the top was very windy and one amazing view haha😲
I have been waiting for 2 years now to ski the Brecon Beacons and the right opportunity has never arisen. Hopefully one day.
This was one Tuesday last February in 2014, I travelled an hour to find it was perfect conditions and only 3 of us on pen y fan. Went back on the Thursday after with friends and to my disappointment it had all gone apart from a few patches on top, still made for good sledging laughs tho.. Goodluck on your quest :-)
I have wet fingers from this Video. Nice Tower!
Nice! But please try to fix the clippin problems / improve your clippin technique.
Was a novice back then ☺
No problem, nobody is perfect
1. That rope end needs to be fused! 2. What grade is this? 3. What length rope is necessary to climb this wall?
Looks like 5.10ish and about 270 feet of rope
That specific route is 4c
It was the centres rope and it was 80 metre rope.
Epic! What season did you do it in? Were you freeing cold? You'd had such a smooth climb to the top as well, then that last carrabiner was being a pain! Sick video! Was that the easiest route to the top or is there easier ones?
Sorry for delay in response, it was in march and freezing bitterly windy, I was a complete novice with a few months experience and it was the easiest route. Very cool tho was awesome fun
Thanks Mas, i think haha! It was my first climb at Excalibur tower and only ever climbed the height of your typical uk climbing wall at that time. Didn't do too bad back then haha.
+Matthew Walmsley was it hard? Are you an experienced climber or amature?
+Matthew Walmsley and do you think a boy of 14 years old (1,98 meters tall) can clim this or is the distance between the grips too big?
Hi lucas, back then I was a novice and it wasn't hard at all just high ☺ it should be no problem for the boy as long as he's cool with heights 🔝
Matthew Walmsley thank you, I'm not afraid of heights at all, I was only concerned that the distance between the grips would be too big.
Matthew Walmsley ooh, and one question more, where did you got the materials like the rope and the snap hooks? or did you bring it yourself?
haha nice video man! its a shame you took the 4c route though heheh ;)
Cheers dean haha....
Cheers dean haha, it was awesome and crazy....
Best sport to hit the afan valleys for years.
