Dave MacLeod climbs the 130 ft E11 rated (possibly 8c+) route called Rhapsody, The 10-minute climb that took two years”. The Telegraph article details a bit about his training, while you can
read the Planet Fear article about the same feat to see great photos, including broken gear: Rhapsody - E11 7a. The climb includes a final stretch of 35 ft that’s unprotectable. You can watch some of the falls in the trailer for E11 and hear a few screams too.`
