Hope you all liked this one. I misspoke with those trade climbing boulders. I said zipper it up but the correct term is “sew it up” not zipper it up. A zipper is when you fall and the pieces all start popping out as you fall.
I used to read Accodents in Mountaineering editions each year to learn from others mistakes to keep myself safe. These videos are great for the same reason
I broke my foot after missing the pad on a highball a month ago, and i wish i had gotten video of it so you could teach people not to do what i did 😂
Yikes! Hope you get stronger from it, I already know your smarter from it lol 😂🤙🏻
@@BetaClimbers oh yeah 100%, funny thing is i had gotten sketched out and decided i wanted to try and do a controlled bail, so i had already figured out highballs arent for me. But in the process of getting in a good bail spot my foot blew out :/ you win some you lose some i guess 😂🤦♂️
everyone misses the pad sometimes. and it sucks.
Sweet. Hopefully one day I'm not on these episodes.
Just climb, and don't bring the shitshow media crew and you're good.
I broke my knee in a big lead fall up in Norway in 2009. It honestly would have been fun to have that thing on film. If I had it on film I would have sent it to this guy.
second to last clip : From high ball to no-ball climb 🤣
Every time... I'm like - this video is too long... and 11 minutes later I'm watching Josh escape through the roof 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Pretty impressive from that last guy to fall with a piece in his mouth and not drop it !
That’s one of the reasons they tell you to use your lips when you are about to make a clip. If you use your teeth you can clench down on the rope and remove a tooth.
@@BetaClimbers That's so smart. I only had people telling me to just never use my mouth at all but yeah, using my lips couldn't result in anything worse than some minimal rash in between them /probably the oh so fashionable big lips look for a few days, I think? thanks a lot :D
@@bemde 🤣
I am surprised that his Petzl shirt did not save him.
when you say next clip, you should clip a quck draw into a hanger for the extra dad joke points lol
Watching these videos really doesn't help with my fear of sport climbing but I can't not watch
Get out there take more falls then you can count. You will get a false sense of trust lol and feel fine about it. Lol 😂
@@BetaClimbers Lol thats the plan for the spring! Well see if it works out or if I end up in one of your climbing fails videos
@@dynosaurs haha hopefully not 🤙🏻
to watch these videos only helps us realise the unknown. youre not scared of taking falls, youre scared of taking dangerous falls. hopefully with this information from the videos you can accept responsibility for your safety and use that responsibility to ensure youre getting the most effective climbing experience possible
Another great video! I have learned many things from this series on how to prevent injury's and what NOT to do. Huge help my man, you have definitely saved my ass a few times.
🤙🏻
I’ve climbed a boulder like that without ropes. But it was full of handholds and steps to the point of being ridiculously easy.
Ist one Katchoong at Mt Arapiles,,,,,,it broke my ankle
Your videos are both hilarious and informative! I love them.
I definitely agree that it’s always a good idea to wear a helmet. I think that you should also take that one step further and promote climbing helmets that protect the sides/front/back of your head and not just the top. Since some helmets mainly protect against rockfalls.
classic head smacker
Merch order placed. A sticker for my hangboard and a hoody bc you can never have enough hoodies. 👍
Facts
Not that it matters, but I think the term is "sewing it up" when placing closely space gear, and "zippering" when you peel and rip out a series of pieces.
"It could have been the rock quality was poor" lmao it's Arapiles. The climb is Kachoong and the belayer has to stand where they are. I'm surprised the piece blew, it looks like a nut and should have been a cam so probably climber error.
It’s bolted
@@BetaClimbers No it's not, it's got one bolt about the belay and the rest is trad.
@@seanmaguire9950 oh sorry thought you meant the rock fall clip. Yeah the piece popped probably like you said bad placement or might have been poor rock quality where the placement was. Like a cracked flake or something. Hard to tell what from here lol
@@BetaClimbers The rock quality at Arapiles is the best in the world for trad, and that climb has two bomber placements for cams where the gear blew. RPs were designed for Arapiles.
@@seanmaguire9950 Then must have been a poor placement. Thanks for that added info. 🤙🏻
Pull down, not out, on weak flakes, especially in sandstone like the second video
That introduction was amazing
Man that boulder was really chalky
Think you are wrong about second climb. He did clip the first bolt, as you can see, and belayer in green pants is pulled off the ground.
Josh, you’re such a stud man. Just ordered me a sticker to rep the channel. Thanks ya legend🤩
Hahaha 🤣 right on 🤙🏻
theres a "boulder" near my home thats about 20ish feet
Hey Joshua I'm super new to climbing and I'm loving these videos. Your analysis of what went wrong is really informative and I'm learning a lot. I just have one question: Why do so many people not wear helmets when climbing/bouldering? It seems like that would be kind of essential no? I have seen some videos of what look like experienced climbers climbing with no helmet on. Keep up the good work :)
Hey 👋🏻
Well when bouldering as long as you are going to land correctly a head injury is very rare. You will never see anyone wearing a helmet bouldering.
Most of climbing is all about risk assessment and that is a personal choice there is no helmet police...besides me...out there going to make some one wear a helmet. Safety is in your hands and it’s your decision on the level of danger you wish to have while climbing. So some climber maybe, most climbers are okay with the risk for the extra free feeling and wind in their hair. Some states allow motorcycles to not wear helmets it’s basically the same thing.
Personally the way I see it, my helmet is a tool some times I don’t need as much and some times I definitely need it. If I don’t expect any rock fall in the area or strange falls I might not have mine on. If there is a lot of traffic, I’ll prob have my helmet on so no one drops anything on my head. Or if I expect a strange fall. The best advice Is to get a light stylish helmet you really like wearing and always wear it. Just maybe not while bouldering. Lol
@@BetaClimbers Thanks for taking the time to respond in such detail I really appreciate it!!
@@luzvs21 anytime! If you ever need a quick response to a question you can hit up my discord or my Instagram too. 🤙🏻
Watching from the Philippines.. And i love your jacket
🤙🏻
that is made in china rock lol
As a gym bum for so many years who is starting to climb outdoors more, I love your channel! Keep up the amazing work an educational content!
gym bum? get a grip man
Hey Josh, when you show the clip, and pause and yack about it for several minutes, show the clip again instead of going on to the next clip. That way we can see points that you were talking about.
A traverse climb video would be a good one!
that last fall is no big deal when you;re 18. At 55, it's gonna hurt for a while.
Lol saw you at grav vault but thought I was just seeing things again
Lol 😂 to bad you didn’t say hey I give out free stickers to ppl that find me!
Please do an episode that covers shoes! I need new shoes for HEAVY use in the gym for sport climbing.
Gym climbing eats up shoes I’ll definitely do a video because its a big subject but so I don’t keep you waiting I recommend the cheapest you can get. My home gym even sells lost and found shoes for nothing after they have been not picked up after almost a year. So bargains can be found. Use and abuse them. When your technique gets better you will not miss placements as often which causes sliding and more abrasion hope that quick answer helps. Also if you find bargains like that you can try a lot of different styles so you can find what you like best for you.
Thank you, man! 👍
sup from croatia
🤙🏻
Great channel. Thanks for the vids.
Killing it with the intros bro
dig the hardline
🤙🏻 Wasn’t easy 😂
Is the first fall, from the overhang, Kachoong, at Arapiles?
that is totally it! as for his comment of maybe bad rock or no good placements i remember some perfect .75 piece right below the lip on some of the best rock in the world, so definitely a technical fail
i think that guy with the quickdraw in his mouth hurt his teeth
I think the last one didn't try to dodge the rope or anything, he just got barndoored which twisted him.
Yeah possibly but that whip kick looked pretty strategic lol
Does anyone know the name of that highball?
Thank you !!!!!!! 😎
i love this channel
cool background song, ever heard of aloneintokyo?
you should mention where they are climbing mite make it more interesting -i really love the channel but
Pozdrowienia z Polski 🙂
Nice!
Bouldering is 30ft or less
Tell that to the bishop boulders 😂
I’ve heard that you’re highballing if a fall could injure you but probably wouldn’t kill you. A free soloing fall would probably kill you.
A 30 ft fall onto solid ground is the magic number where that fall becomes very likely lethal.
@@totalmetaljacket789 people slip off ladders and die from 8 ft. there really isnt a rule.
@@ml242 There isn't a rule. I didn't say there was? 30 ft is where the likelihood of a fatal fall becomes extreme. 30 ft is where the increase in lethality per distance trails off. The difference between 20 and 30 ft is much much larger than even 30 and 50. Anything past 30 is going to be over 90% with decreasing step size.
That fact doesn't indicate no fall under 30 is non lethal, just less likely to be. Many many many more people fall off ladders to no serious injury than do from 30 ft falls.
Re 2:15, rope length. Spring constants add harmonically when in series[1], so 2x the rope is twice as "soft" as 1x.
[1] so, duh, they add linearly in parallel....but y'all don't use two equal length ropes.....
Sandstone,,,

second
first
it's cooler when you don't wear a helmet.
Second one is just a shit belay. His waist was right above the bolt. I hate watching belayers with the "soft J". The soft j is bullshit and should not be a thing. Reason, because the soft j turns into a "j" real quick, and a j turns into a "hard j" even quicker. Just stay with your climber, it's not that hard.
this dude is one of the annoying people that comments on rock and ice's weekend whippers.
What dude? I don’t comment on any videos lol
