Climbing the hardest route in Millau
This 2004 video shows the outdoor climbing competition where ten of the world’s best climbers try to climb a newly bolted route in Millau, France. The video’s pacing is slow and times and sgements in black and white that make you think your computer’s acting funny. But there are some fun moments, including seeing people talk about climbing in different languages. If you’re in rush, skip to the following:
- 2:40
- A big fall. If any of my friends are worried, I won’t highlight any video of my friends climbing ever, unless they become world famous climbers.
- 9:20
- Lynn Hill describes with great detail climbing her route. Who knew she speaks French?
