    Most chilled reaction to sending a 9b to ever exist.

    Alex, you are quickly becoming one of the best content creators in all of climbing youtube. None of the clickbait or fluff. Just crushing hard climbs. Please just keep your same style of videos, it will bring yourself and your channel so far.

      yeah Fr like if other people write smth like 9b+ ??? on their thumbnail it would be clickbait but he could just do it

      If you’re wanting sport climbing content, Stefano is #1, Seb and Adam are 2a and 2b, and Alex is coming on strong with this one.

      Genuinely couldn’t agree more with your comment Ben. I’ve just unsubscribed from Magnus’s channel as it’s become just another channel of dumb videos which is really sad but Alex is doing great things which I’m really happy about 👏👏

    Even more impressive when you know that you pulled your car by your own strength to the spot.

    The best climbing sound I have heard yet! The soft clunk of climbing shoes. The creak of carabiners. The almost not there whir of rope. No shouting. No distant voices. A truly special experience. Kudos to you and your crew.

    Fantastic video! So much stuff is way overproduced these days and uses relentless, aggressive music, so this was a breath of fresh air; thank you! Also those stretches, unbelievable flexibility! 🤯 And of course the actual climbing, just an insane level of fitness and skill.

  • @Docthor.M

    Incredible climbing. Obviously insanely strong, amazingly flexible - but the awareness of the body, the positioning instinct, the efficiency of movement. Next-level.

    What an incredibly humbling experience it must be to send a line bolted over 10 years ago by a then pioneer of and pusher of the limits and style we see today. Almost like picking up the map of a great explorer and finding that mythical island he spoke of and oh so wanted to see. Awesome, epic, inspiring.. infinite superlatives for this one Alex! Keep on pushing the limits of what a person can do and your impact will transcend time. ❤️❤️

    There is a typo in the name of the route in the title, it should say "Ratstaman Vibrations" (weird, but it's a reference to the Ceuse sector Face de Rat).

    It was a pleasure to watch this video. Alex, you are becoming more calm and mature - no screaming, soft-eye-focus on the climb, long, slow and deep breathing (some call it LSD), completely flowing up the route in a dance-like style, a one-of-a-kind rock warrior and legend already. Anjd of course - stretching and laying Shavasana, just amazing

    Awesome vid as always and a sick send! 🔥🥕💪
    Some sincere personal feedback (im saying these are facts just my opinion as a fellow climber and creative) for Jan Virt 😍✌
    - I absolutely loved all the talking elements, the humanness bringing us Alex even closer and all the humor
    - If possible (lens and distance to Alex) I would prefer to have a wider framing of the closeup, also it s nice to have some extra rock shown above the climber so we can anticipate the next move without hands going out of the frame on quick moves.
    - When filming from the rope a bit more image stabilisation in post would be nice to have the framing be more stable
    - last but not least I found the music to be quite distracting, this is of course super personal but to mee it felt more like the standaard music for hipster commercial, sorry for saying it so blunt. Also for the send I don't thing we need any music, the sounds of the climbing itself are pure enough on their own. 


    Again im not trying to be a hater here just giving my honest feedback to make the content in my opinion even more enjoyable 💚
