For years Cedar Wright has been at the pinnacle of hard rock climbing. From scary solos to Arctic expeditions he has travelled the world filming and climbing. He was the MC at the recent Red Bull Dual Ascent event, so we had a few beers and a chat...

For anyone who clicks it wondering, its just a clickbait title. This dude is friends with Alex and has big respect for what he has done
Someone need to tell that to these people.
Thanks saved me from watching this video so I can watch another video instead
No, he's dead super cereal.
Yeah anyone in the ecosystem knows. He is the funniest man in climbing
they’re basically married as far as I’m concerned
'People are so concerned with surviving at all costs, but what about that old school bad-assery?' Pure gold!
Cedar Wright is so great. Strongly recommend of Choss and Lions if you haven't seen it.
“Bunch of freaking protein shake drinking calory counting fingerboard hanging freaking knuckleheads” now i think i love you Cedar.
I feel so seen.
Bent on not dying...
I started climbing in '69. You could quickly see how climbing/mountaineering was changing. I still love watching and reading about sport climbing but I think in general we've lost a deep connection with Nature and the mountain. One thing I valued all along and regret how little I had was vision. Being able to see what could be done and how to get there. Cedar is right, Peter Croft was and is such and incredible visionary. IMO there would be no Alex without Peter. And there would probably be no Peter without people like Paul Preuss. Honor to you all "adventurers and strong hardy spirits!" Grateful for you and your career Cedar.
"people are fixated at surviving"... well count me in
He looks like a geeky Leonard Hofstadter, But Cedar Wright is such a warrior!
What a real and awesome interview!
🖤 Cedar Wright you legend you
Cedar is a legend, great to hear these amazing stories - keep on keeping on 😎
Fact that when searching for Cedar Wright in YT shows
-cedar wright
-cedar wright alex honnold
- cedar wright poop
Is proof that this man is a legend.
The Squamish sequel was awesome!
This interview is very well done. Super cool hearing Cedars background. Magnifio!
Such a legend with a great vibe
GREAT INTERVIEW Cedar is on always point!
Glad to see a bit about his paragliding pursuits there toward the end. He's part of a next wave of pilot athletes from the US to get accepted to partake in the Red Bull X-Alps. Could be his biggest sufferfest of all if the flying conditions are shit. The haters in the comments don't seem to get his sense of humor.
Dude is me of the funniest climbers. He videos are always very entertaining
What a guy ❤
"People are fixated to surviving at all cost" - the cost being a 150 dollar rope
Right, I mean, dying young is so worthy compared to a lifetime with a beautiful woman like Sani.
11:47 Alex looks so disgusted by the pizza 😂
"Dive into the corporate dumpster instead" -- good one!
Cedar "Nuts and Belts" Wright
Can somebody answer this question for me please. I see lots of video of climbers making it to the top looking worn out but jubilant. What happens next? Do they rappel down the cliff? Do they get a helicopter ride? how come we never see that?
generally hike down a trail on the backside
Sometimes they have to rappel but like above mostly u can just walk down the back or somewhere.
A true legend
What a cool, real guy.
Safety is cool! Being safe is badass! Anyone who wants to risk their life while climbing is free to do so and it sure is impressive. But no one should feel like they have to be irresponsible to be a real climber. Just wanted to leave this here
Doing run outs and free soloing isn't irresponsible. Cedar was just talking shit, he's old school. These days people don't get that or understand it.
@@Squids_Vlogs You're absolutely right, it isn't. Unless you're not okay with or aware of the consequences and that's just what I meant.
cedar wright is underrated.
i love this guy, such a goofy dude that likes to suffer and try hard.
I am not a climber but love cedar watch his videos been waiting like 7 months lol for a new one he seems like a joker likes to live young and I know him and alex are really good friends one love
Love Cedar Wright. And Alex Honnold.
Alex is a Legend...
Climbing movies are what brought climbing into the mainstream and made it popular and ultimately "nerf'd" it. Cedar is responsible for creating the culture he's dogging in this.
Baller
Maybe a para gliding tour from climb to climb
still never elaborated on the title though, didn't really need the click bate.
Was really hoping to hear Cedar talk about Brad Gobright... Cedar made a film about Brad, perhaps one of his best films, and Brad died shortly after. Ah well, I guess the "Alex" name gets more clicks
The goat speaks
nice
Gross clickbait. Matt, Teri, or Hugo. Whoever was responsible for this, I'm truly disappointed in you. I love Cedar, but imagine not knowing him or his dry humour before watching this video. Oh wait, you can already read several comments here filled with people who were ragebaited and got on their keyboards before they got past the first 3 seconds -- which was taken out of context.
Alex Honnold is overrated, but Tomoa Narasaki isn't! =)
the guy isn't wrong
Cedar... the hottest climber. Wait! The ONLY hot climber!
I've see this happen in many people. Someone doesn't have their life together, then they find something that makes it better and they go into the other extreme and make their entire life about that thing and feel like it's theirs. Like people who convert to a religion become the most fanatical nuts because they've got something to prove.
This guy might say that all new climbers aren't "real climbers".. but that's just like.. an opinion.. dude.
I think you have to see the junior in what he’s saying. He respects all climbers, he just has a way of saying it. Life shouldn’t be too serious, and Cedar is a legend
@@dailyclimbing If thats his way, its not a nice way. Whilst i know too little about him in general to judge him as a person, i strongly dislike this kind of talking about what is "proper" or "real". Basicly what he is expressing in a way is, that you are not a cool person if you don't risk your life or not doing it his way. Not very charming. I really enjoy all your videos but this interview doesn't shine a very bright light.
The term for what Cedar is doing is “gatekeeping”
Wouldn’t say Cedar is gatekeeping or putting down other climbers, he refers to them as climbers for this reason, he is contrasting what he does and was experienced with being “Climbing” while modern climbers are “climbing”. He just has an unpolished way about him, and I think this has plenty to do with his facial expression and gesturing.
Course, there are people who are honestly confrontational about “Climbing” in a preferred style and sound alike Cedar.
idiot
Cedar out here saying what every climber is thinking but not willing to say! Go out get get some choss!
Lame clickbait. Expect better from this channel to be honest.
It’s insane how much these guys risk for adrenaline and young death…
There is pretty much no adrenaline in free solo climbing
@@barte4215 whatever they do it for, it’s not worth death.
@letsgetlit2829 its the experience itself, you can say that about many sports
I love like he says that climbers nowadays arent adventurous and at the same time there are like 12 years old kids climbing 10 meter highballs, taking big whippers on really hard sportsroute. Most people take the safe route maybe, but the number of peoole doing crazy shit is through the roof as well, it's getting tiresome the "good old days" attitude, go invent a sport and be the only one to do it if you wanna be a hipster.
Totally agree. Honnold is an over-rated slightly above average sport climber with a Dad haircut.
He's a trad climber dude, you can't even get his style right
@@CoolaJokern Ned Flanders with smelly feet?
Such a hater lol. He was hating on stephano at the redbull challange saying he wouldnt do it then he hangdoged up it and barely made it. Stephano git 2nd or third I think. Funny guy though
Nothing more cringe than anyone telling anyone in any pursuit/hobby/whatever that they are not real 👎
Yeah, so much worse than calling people "cringe"...
Alex is overrated? Where did that come in? It didn't so that makes it clickbait. Bad move, dude!
How often can one say „like“ within 13 minutes? Quite a lot it seems!
Man, I have never liked people saying, "Okay Boomer," but the way this dude talks about the current generation of climbers? There are plenty of climbers (and other extreme sport athletes) who are doing s*** he would have never dreamed of doing. But as climbing became more popular, of course there would be more people who are not there to push insane limits. They want to have a little fun climbing and get back to their jobs. And maybe spend some of the money they earn on North Face gear. And since North Face paid this guy's salary, a little less elitism might be nice.
💀
lame
I rlly like Cedars view here. Climbing shouldnt be totally safe all the time. There should be some danger and being able to face and overcome dangerous situations is a big part of being a complete climber
Disagree but to the extent climbing should be as safe as possible within the scope of the preferred style. I sport climb to basically not think about the injury risk, quick assessment of any worrisome fall zones, check the bolts in the area are good, be with a confident partner, stick clip to avoid ground falls, and similar. However, what I don’t want is a sterile experience, and I have no disapproval for experiences which are a little more exposed, mentally provoking, etc., as I do enjoy a good nighttime highball, just danger isn’t what I am often after.
I feel I’m missing something with this guy. He keeps going on about solo climbing is the ultimate experience but, thinking of this, he would have fallen to his death at least twice climbing up the dam wall with Magnus. Young punks that are better than you!
Love how you pass so much judgement after one video that was clearly edited tongue in cheek. Typical Magnus viewer. Besides, you don't climb the same when you know you're on aid. Perhaps you should do your research and look at the man's free soloing resume.
Cedar has free solod a shit load with honnald
@@eurekaflows Bunch of Alex's fans in here not understanding sarcasm, either. You'd think they'd know who he is. Still, there's no need to be a generalising jerk like you are. Your second hand valour isn't making you cooler than people who don't consider a deathwish necessary for fun or challenge.
So many soft people in the comments XD
Well you already failed that tv personality crap, why would you start by talking shit about Alex. Dude seems like a harmless nice guy, of course thats what we see. But if thats his true nature, he would never say that about someone. People should keep others names out they mouth, no judgement. Trust me, you have no rite.
Bruh it’s a joke and they are friends. Relax. Don’t need to take everything so seriously, I kinda think that is his point
I actually think it was a joke
@@benjam_morgan Oh got ya, kool
Threw me off, his humor is dryer than mine.
@@OddSublime I expect that he expects people know him in relation to Alex anymore, hence throwing this out there without need for context.
if you want a better like/dislike ratio, just cool it a little with your click bait titles. people will still click on the videos but will feel less fooled!
It was like and I was like, they were like and i like like like, and it was like cool cuz like you know like.. like like like. Like wow its like epik like dude.
MY GOODNESS! I cantt listen to this dude.
This dude aint got enough sense to claim that alex is overrated. First he needs to learn how to form a intelligent sentence, with no more than one "like" in a paragraph.
Unless he is actually liking something, and saying so. Or if something was actually like something else.
Him and Alex are very good friends. He's just goofy don't judge him too hard.
Did you even watch the video? a large chunk of it is about all the stuff he's done with Honnold. They collaborate all the time
Cedar isn’t an orator, but he is a storyteller. All he does is ramble with unrefined experience, and this is exactly what he portrays here. Especially as he is Alex’s good friend, you may want to find less to screech about.
@@moonti6820 I ain't judgin him. He seems like a nice enough fellar, probably a good climber too. But alex is underated if anything. Cuz he is humble and don't go around tootin his own horn. And he climbs because he loves nature and climbing, not to show off.
Alex is one of the wisest, yet boldest climbers in the world. He raised the bar in the climbing world drastically, and has earned bragging rights, but he don't brag , nor claim to be better than anyone. He might actually become the first old bold climber ever. If he has time before the world goes to poop. "There is old climbers and there is bold climbers, but aint no old bold climbers". He might be the forst, cuz he is a genuinly good hearted , humble dude.
So I get defensive when folks talk about him, and I didn know this dude and alex were good friends.
I wish hed get out of that like habit though. I can't understand what he is talking about for all of the likes. I aint judgin him though. I used to have that same habit with "you know what Im sayin". I said it so much I annoyed myself. I had to straighten myself out.
@@davesmith1588 naw I couldn't get past all of the likes to understand what he was saying. I gave up on trying to watch. And I get defensive when anyone says alex is overrated , if anything, he is underrated. He is one of the best climbers in the world, and yet hes one of the most humble climbers. They broke the mold when they made alex, and I doubt any will come after him. All of the other world class climbers let it go to their heads and get greedy, and them they die.
