Netflix ... Valley Uprising. The story of how rock climbing evolved in Yosemite park.
This is frickin crazy ... 3000 ft , bare hands no safety ropes ....!!
I am not a height kinda guy , I hate it but this is unreal...

A fantastic documentary, I found it fascinating and the scenery of the mountains awesome....
anyways ... A great insight into some crazy / fearless people !!

Check out Dan Osman, likely the best of them all before he died doing what he enjoyed.

People leaving the movies in the middle of the movie. I agree its a terrible thing just glad the movie wasn’t more graphic or i couldn’t have watched it either.

This was probably the best Rock climber i ever saw and the best in the world, surpassing most seasoned veterans as told by his fellow Alpinists. this kid was truly remarkable with the peaks he climbed and the swiftness of his ability.

Loved this documentary. I watch about 2 hours of TV a month and have zero interest in rock climbing but a buddy threw this at me and it absolutely blew my mind. I think I’ve watched it 4 or 5 times now.

Dawn Wall is another crazy story. Tommy Caldwell I think his name is. Climbing that wall no ropes was crazy! Listened to a podcast awhile ago on him in so country I’ve never heard of where he was held captive and end having to throw his chapters off a cliff to escape. Pretty crazy life so guys have.
