- Today Liam brings you a brief history of rock climbing as a sport. From the 14th century to the modern day, rock climbing has been a niche but prominent sport throughout the world.
Notes from Liam:
I wanted to keep the video short and sweet, so of course there is a lot of information that I glanced over or parsed. Please feel free to comment below or let me know personally if there is anything that I personally butchered(including but not limited to the pronunciation of French and/or Italian names.) This video is the culmination of almost 12 hours of work, research, scripting, and editing. I worked hard so you can mentally flex at the local crag. You're welcome!
Thanks for watching!

Stay well🍀deserves more views
More like a history of American climbing. A hard topic to cover in 11 minutes.
Excellent video, Liam. Background music was just right. I'm a recreational hiker. Much respect for you rock climbers.
Thank you, Vince! I appreciate the comment and you taking the time to watch the video. Glad you enjoyed!
Centuries?? You mean thousands of years? There have been many ancient civilisations that have lived on mountains that can only be accessed through climbing... water colour pictures from China show people solo climbing in 400 BC
True but he is more talking about when it became more like a "sport" right?
Nice brief story Liam. Could be awesome to watch a much longer version... I might have some ideas for a much longer version. Gimme a shout!
Awesome video, I love history.
Great video!
Nice content! Deserves more vieuws. I had a bit of a laugh about you pronunciation of fontainbleau
Good stuff mate♥️
It's so weird to think that one day we'll reach the world's hardest route and we can't go on from that
Great job with this keep making videos
Thanks Joey! Will do!
I know you did the video several years ago but I found it be be very informative
Hi! I am writing a psychology thesis where there is some climbing included. Do you happen to have sources for this info? I would appreciate it immensely!
The rock climbing shoes, Fires are not pronounced like fire. The name was pronounced as "fee rays."
Some nice snippets there. Impossible to cover all the pioneers. Preuss, Bonatti, Comici, Brown and Whillans, Buhl ,Messner and a few others could have been included. Thanks for your 9.38.
Haha, the naked climbers in that pic.
Hey it me
The content is nice but the lounge music is making me sleepy 🥱
No Jerry moffat. The ondre of his day., you know the guy that had the hardest 1st ascents in the world and did your hardest routes in the states within a few tries. And where’s Gullich. This has to be a joke
sources?
So then who tf is Eddie bauer lol
Okay I was kinda mad Wolfgang Gullich wasn't even mentioned when he is in the GOAT discussion, but this is the history of American climbing and Adam Ondra but you didn't mention 70% of climbers in the Goat discussion because you provably didn't Knowles the European climbers. Great video of American climbing history though.
