Thank you, Tom and Pete, for excellent crack schooling me in such a fantastic place as the Cellar definitely is! I'll come back! We are releasing another great video from the cellar and Peak District today at 4pm CET on my UA-cam channel!
I love how Adam came into this not with the mindset of "I am the greatest climber in the world" but instead "I'm really looking forward to learning a bunch of new crack techniques". What a classy guy.
his mentality is why everyone loves him, so perfect in everyway. In one of his old videos his wife explains he can be cussing a storm and screaming while falling off a climb, the moment he touches the floor hes kind adam instantly smiling and talking to everyone like nothing happened. Insane control over his emotions, i strive to be so in control of myself. A huge respect to adam for being in control of his emotions, his breathing, and his body at such a level. Cant get any better than this guy @@quincy2142
I just love that these guys aren't afraid to show their failures and just how hard some of this stuff is. The sheer effort and determination is awesome and demonstrates what it takes to be a professional climber
ondra started and i didnt even realise. i had to take a second look to see it was not pete lmao. he went so effortlessly, so quick, so easily, with such perfect technique?? this man is insane.
Been in the hospital post surgery as part of my cancer treatment and this is the content I need! Saw timing of these videos and my surgery and knew all was going to be good!
Must have been such a great feeling to hear the O Dog let out some trademark grunts / screams in the cellar youve spent so many years training in. Unbelievable vid.
In my gym a few months ago they set a problem with two volumes, that I think wasnt intended to be done with jamming but everyone tried it with jams. It is indeed so mcuh harder but also such a great feeling if you succeed.
A dream come true! I still remember years ago, when you always mentioned that one day, you would get Adam into the cellar... I remember it, that you made it sound that it was pretty safe he would visit you on the next trip to UK... and I thought no way. noooo waaaay.... and now it's done! So extremely humble, what a legend! Now I hope that Adam will invite you to an amazing crack location (and/or that he will build his own cellar!).
Ondra is clearly a climbing genius but honestly the video got so much better when he started failing the tight toe section. And then the small footholds. Watching him problem solve and adjust was really quality entertainment. Esp since Tom and Pete and good communicators and teachers. Great vid ⭐
That was bloody awesome, my favourite bit was the montage of you all working the czech pleasure loop. It must be such a profound experience to be so experienced in your discipline that you're able to work with the very best in the world! Thank you for putting this together guys
Just puts the thing the Wide Boyz are doing into perspective. Tom just casually did the paddle hands link and Adam had to fight really hard. They even got an ondra shout out of him.
I loved this. It demonstrates that no matter how good you are, how accomplished you are, when you are learning a new thing it takes good teachers, trying, repeated failures, persistence, and practice. He's the best climber in the world, but even he has to work hard to accomplish his goals. I think we who just sit here watching amazing professional athletes (of any sport) underestimate how important determination and persistence is to accomplishing the highest goals. Thank you guys for this (and all your) videos.
Not only that but his attitude is great. Never arrogant always eager to listen. I think there's a great lesson in being humble wherever you are with whatever you're doing.
I haven’t tried crack climbing, cause the gym in my city doesn’t set any. But man, you guys are making the crack climbing look so painful and fun, it is hype to see one of my favourite climber to try your insane cellar! Maybe the whole cellar will be O8 in my opinion, let’s see the world greatest climber crush the cellar!
That was a pleasure to watch! Really impressed with how well Adam got into things here, just shows how versatile and adaptable he is as a climber. And just seems to be a nice guy to have around. Probably the type that would slightly be forgotten about when in a pub with friends but then comes out at the right time with the best lines that make the evening...
that is gonna be awesome. watched so many old videos of you guys recently, and how you were always dreaming of the big o-dog's visit. Happy for you guys, happy for Adam and happy for all of us!
I’m not a climber but there’s something about how nerdy and geeky they all get about such a passion project in a basement! It’s so easy to tell how much love they have for the sport and how invested they are in what they’ve made. It’s really inspiring.
Great video! Glad Adam didn't just crush everything and actually got to try hard. He seemed pretty excited by Century Crack until he tried some laps on the simulator 😂
What an epic video lads. As a lad born in the steel city myself I salute you both and the cellar of doom. Adam is such a chill dude as well, great content.
INCREDIBLE! Probably the video I enjoy the most over the last few years! Deffinitely a high point on this channel, and my personal favourite was watching Adam kicking spiderwebs with his knees on the century crack recplica!
My absolute favourite part about watching Adam climb is seeing him overcome with pure joy when he achieves something , seeing him proud of himself makes you proud of him 🙌🏻
I was beaming smiling the entire time watching this, my cheeks are genuinely tired Huge thanks to Adam, the Wide Boyz, and everyone who pestered Adam to get down to the cellar - what a treat it was.
It's unbelievable that someone who's not specialized in crack can be so good at it, even with it being Adam Ondra. Next I would love to see him try and climb the Century crack with you guys😊
I feel so lucky to be able to watch something special happening in the moment. I feel like the cellar will be remembered in the climbing community for generations.
Fantastic series so far! Watching Adam climb was really, really cool. Even though he is known as one of the best climbers in the world, and has crack climbing experience under his belt, I still think it's interesting to see someone a bit more out of their element. I think his determination, eagerness, and just overall curiosity with climbing movement/styles was really evident throughout this video and you could see the focus he had to learn and really test his crack skills. Adam thinks about climbing in such a different way and it's great that you were able to highlight some of that through this vid. It's certainly very mesmerizing but also very inspiring to see. On top of all of that, just watching you guys all together was really lovely; there's a nice kindred spiritedness to it :) Though the series hasn't been released in its entirety, I want to commend you guys on bringing this project together. I can't imagine it must have been particularly easy to put together (if I'm not mistaken COVID originally put a dent in some of the original plans to meet and lining up schedules/travelling plans is never an easy task), but I'm grateful that you guys were able to find the time to make this all work and give us a chance to see you all work together. Myself (and I'm sure every other fan/supporter in existence!) appreciate it a lot. Truly, thank you so much! Can't wait to see the next vids!
I wasn't sure I would like this type of climbing video so I put off watching it for a couple weeks. Now halfway in and I can easily say it's one of the most entertaining YT videos all year! Your warm energy combined with Adam's humble will and joy to learn and push himself in something unfamiliar makes this such a treat. Thank you for this, even though it is just a few dudes in a cellar.
Thank you Adam, Pete, and Tom. Confirms what I had seen on Adams channel, he is a decent guy with no airs and graces, no super star attitude, I would have a beer with him - and there's plenty I wouldn't . Gets into it and isn't afraid to struggle, and then smashes it out of the park! Very psyched for Adam on grit.
it's like getting ACDC to play at your garage, where you practiced with your high school friend, or getting Max Verstappen to drive the shitty Panda you turbocharged on your garage, or getting Pamela Anderson to, you know, play Gran Turismo 2 on playstation with you well done getting him there! great video!
This might be the greatest video on UA-cam... Adam is so humble to not let them scumbag his ego lol. That said his climbing career is so legendary and full of INSANE flash ascents! I think the O-gasm grading system is totally deserved and should be lightly adopted! LONG LIVE THE O-Zero!
This video was a blast. And I'm genuinely happy for you the WideBoys, as it must have been such a pleasure, Adam looking like a genuinely nice bloke on top of that (understatement). And Pete did sport the classic shorts!
We don't get to see a lot of already quite good crack climbers. It's fantastic seeing Adam just cruise so much of the cellar, it helps give perspective to the Wide Boyz climbing in the same way seeing a beginner at cracks does! He's so fucking fast! The confidence in his body position is really cool to see. Just sticks his hand in and trusts it.
Adam adding alternative difficulty to the cellar by taking away the foot jams and making it about foot placement on the crimps is fantastic. This is why you do crossovers and collaborations. Beyond just our enjoyment.
Yet another amazing video from the Wide Boyz thanks Pete and Tom. Just goes to show why Adam is arguably the best climber around his all round skill is unbelievable, I’d love to see his Olympic competitors try this I’m not seeing the same level of success that the O Dog had!!
Honestly this plus your first video is the perfect climbing content, laughing so much in your first video like laughing out loud like I haven’t done in ages and then this watching someone try so so hard and you guys being so supportive. You guys are the best please keep doing stuff together you are the perfect pair of people
im challenged getting out of bed daily. the power and stamina of these animals is really hard to fathom! the work they put in shows in their passion for this sport❤

I agree with all of positive comments, but I really want to say THANK YOU for those editing/videographer skills! watching these perfect cuts making this combined-attempt-competition so lively, it was a treat!
Thank you, Tom and Pete, for excellent crack schooling me in such a fantastic place as the Cellar definitely is! I'll come back!
We are releasing another great video from the cellar and Peak District today at 4pm CET on my UA-cam channel!
Excited for it! Enjoyed this video immencely and can't wait for more.
Can't wait for the video Adam, and for some shuffling later this week 😉
@@WideBoyz what's that shuffling you're talking about? 😱🤔
Letsgoo we will have confirmed O2 in the cellar!
ODawg has the most shredded calf muscles I’ve seen so far (for a climber.)
WHAT A TIME TO BE ALIVE
Is this a Two Minute Papers reference?
@@WilliamKielyI wish that too
I read it as such @@WilliamKiely
in the cellar
@@WilliamKiely 🤠 so true
Adam:
-arrives at the cellar
-sets an O2 book opener
-doesn't give beta
-leaves
Absolute madman.
LOL TOP COMMENT 😂
MADAM
😂💪
Pete getting a o1!
I mean o2
I love how the cellar is a bit like real rock, sometimes a piece get's broken off and it's now forever just a slightly harder route
I love how Adam came into this not with the mindset of "I am the greatest climber in the world" but instead "I'm really looking forward to learning a bunch of new crack techniques". What a classy guy.
One could say he loves crack now
Great character to essentially be the face of the sport atm
It's why he's so good. That mentality means he's not complacent.
his mentality is why everyone loves him, so perfect in everyway. In one of his old videos his wife explains he can be cussing a storm and screaming while falling off a climb, the moment he touches the floor hes kind adam instantly smiling and talking to everyone like nothing happened. Insane control over his emotions, i strive to be so in control of myself. A huge respect to adam for being in control of his emotions, his breathing, and his body at such a level. Cant get any better than this guy @@quincy2142
which is precisely why he has been the greatest climber in the world for so long
I just love that these guys aren't afraid to show their failures and just how hard some of this stuff is. The sheer effort and determination is awesome and demonstrates what it takes to be a professional climber
This shows the pure class of Ondra. Absolutly killing a style of climbing that he doesn't do a lot of... awesome video.
There's probably not a whole lot of people out there who can say they taught Adam Ondra how to climb. Quite the honor
As I noticed from his own videos he's always very eager to learn new techniques and get better, great climber and a great one to wach.
ondra started and i didnt even realise. i had to take a second look to see it was not pete lmao. he went so effortlessly, so quick, so easily, with such perfect technique?? this man is insane.
Same! Incredible!
Same here!
Yeah, that was impressive as hell. As Pete (or was it Tom?) said, you can tell when somebody is a good crack climber, it just looks good.
29:27 You sometimes forget just how good Tom is, because he's so wonderfully silly.
They are both amazing climbers, up there with the best in the world like Ondra, they are just way too modest sometimes!
Adam really is proving why he’s so world renowned🤯. Sport, crack,trad,comp…
boulder, bigwall...
Cellar
Ad said he doesn't like free water solo and he is not very keen on trad. Does not mean he sucks at these quite the opposite.
As an athlete at the level that Adam is, it must be such a pleasure for him to even be slightly humbled doing some climbing for a change
It was fun to see Adam go from laughs and giggles into serious mode and trying hard. Congrats on the first confirmed O2 (or higher) climb!
21:30 Adam saying that O-grades might pass on with Hugo is so cute.
I'm so excited to see if the O-grades are correct!!
Been in the hospital post surgery as part of my cancer treatment and this is the content I need! Saw timing of these videos and my surgery and knew all was going to be good!
Stay strong! We've been through the mill with surgeries and hospitals and there are brighter times ahead 🙏💪
"Where the fuck is there a mono finger lock on change?" 😂
Must have been such a great feeling to hear the O Dog let out some trademark grunts / screams in the cellar youve spent so many years training in. Unbelievable vid.
I hope they warned the neighbours so they didn't call the police.
@@Sarah-fy3qf the neighbours probably know I guess
I’ve been waiting for about a ondrad days for this one ❤️ looking forward!
This comment needs to be pinned with a nail and a hammer!
Everyone reading this is gutted they didn't write it! 😂
Excellent...sort of
More and more gyms are setting crack routes, hope it will get even more popular after this video! It is so much more difficult to do than it looks 😂
In my gym a few months ago they set a problem with two volumes, that I think wasnt intended to be done with jamming but everyone tried it with jams. It is indeed so mcuh harder but also such a great feeling if you succeed.
Guys, this is outstanding. Smiling from start to finish. Such a pleasure to watch. 👍
I'm more excited to see this than Ondra winning the Olympics!
Good, cause he won't. They wouldn't make a scoring system simple enough such that the best climber wins
Maybe in 4 more years at the 2028 Olympics if there will be one more medal for climbing (separating lead and bouldering) hoping he won't be too old.
Lol, Pete's "I've just remembered that this is actually quite tricky". Amazing.
Love your videos!
A dream come true! I still remember years ago, when you always mentioned that one day, you would get Adam into the cellar... I remember it, that you made it sound that it was pretty safe he would visit you on the next trip to UK... and I thought no way. noooo waaaay.... and now it's done! So extremely humble, what a legend! Now I hope that Adam will invite you to an amazing crack location (and/or that he will build his own cellar!).
I love that the "change replica" is absolutely nothing like change. Like, not even a slight resemblance.
Ondra is clearly a climbing genius but honestly the video got so much better when he started failing the tight toe section. And then the small footholds. Watching him problem solve and adjust was really quality entertainment. Esp since Tom and Pete and good communicators and teachers. Great vid ⭐

IT’S HAPPENING! IT’S HAPPENING! EVERYONE STAY CALM!!!!
Now it's just a matter of time before Adam starts projecting century crag! This was well worth the wait and it was only the first one !!!
I wonder how many climbers there are, pro or otherwise, who could do these kinds of routes over and over again. Such a fun video to watch!
I’m not a climber but there’s something about how nerdy and geeky they all get about such a passion project in a basement! It’s so easy to tell how much love they have for the sport and how invested they are in what they’ve made. It’s really inspiring.
Great video! Glad Adam didn't just crush everything and actually got to try hard. He seemed pretty excited by Century Crack until he tried some laps on the simulator 😂
What a pleasure to watch!
Adam looks so comfortable on the cracks, I almost mistook him for Pete at the beginning lol
What an epic video lads. As a lad born in the steel city myself I salute you both and the cellar of doom. Adam is such a chill dude as well, great content.
INCREDIBLE! Probably the video I enjoy the most over the last few years! Deffinitely a high point on this channel, and my personal favourite was watching Adam kicking spiderwebs with his knees on the century crack recplica!
Thanks for this awesome video, well worth the wait! Adam didn't disappoint, but he also proved what absolute beasts you two are on crack!
17:13 getting to hear those iconic sharp breaths and grunts in your own cellar has got to be pretty incredible
My absolute favourite part about watching Adam climb is seeing him overcome with pure joy when he achieves something , seeing him proud of himself makes you proud of him 🙌🏻
Also shows just how amazingly good Pete and Tom are at what they do
Watching the cellar videos upside down is *so much* fun :D I love to see Adam walk weirdly on all fours 😂❤
I was beaming smiling the entire time watching this, my cheeks are genuinely tired
Huge thanks to Adam, the Wide Boyz, and everyone who pestered Adam to get down to the cellar - what a treat it was.
It's unbelievable that someone who's not specialized in crack can be so good at it, even with it being Adam Ondra. Next I would love to see him try and climb the Century crack with you guys😊
20:57 Love Pete's excited "oh, is he going to O0 it face".
I feel so lucky to be able to watch something special happening in the moment. I feel like the cellar will be remembered in the climbing community for generations.
Yeah, like The School Room!
Historical! So glad for you guys. Congratulations! Been waiting so long for this! So much fun to watch!

That was proper sick; Adam is a genuinely great sport! The cellar O-grades are now a thing! Great film!
I love the passion this man has.
14:37 That exhale's got to have made you proud Pete and Tom.
I honestly didn’t expect the wide boys would be able to keep up with Adam but it’s like really even
I wasn't sure I would like this type of climbing video so I put off watching it for a couple weeks. Now halfway in and I can easily say it's one of the most entertaining YT videos all year!

well done getting him there! great video!
Adam climbing upside down making it look like it’s nothing! Not even a sweat! I LOVE the view you all have towards climbing. Keep it up!
Too awesome. 17:26 AO turns on beast mode 😂👌💪
So good to watch as a nonclimber fan. Love the 2 way fandom between the guys. 😂
The hupe is real! Never been more exited for a wide boyz video ever! Also I got the wide boyz crack gloves and they are the best I’ve ever used!
Adam is always looking for ways to be better, you can tell he is absorbing everything, great to watch
Adam seemed very solid and fast on most things! Awesome to watch that kind of talent💪 also from Pete and Tom!
This might be the greatest video on UA-cam... Adam is so humble to not let them scumbag his ego lol. That said his climbing career is so legendary and full of INSANE flash ascents! I think the O-gasm grading system is totally deserved and should be lightly adopted!
LONG LIVE THE O-Zero!
Well, I’m officially going climbing now. I’m inspired. See you later!
You can see how big O is so much more into the cellar once he's struggling :)
This video was a blast. And I'm genuinely happy for you the WideBoys, as it must have been such a pleasure, Adam looking like a genuinely nice bloke on top of that (understatement). And Pete did sport the classic shorts!
It gives me Rocky 4 vibes. When he goes to the cabin, back to basic😂
Imagine the boyz taking Ondra to the US and working Century Crack with him. IMAGINE
I imagine saying to a non climber..."let me show you some the hardest climbing in the world" then roll out this video. Beautiful.
@@TheBlueMoo It is the limitations that create the magic
“ honestly, I dont think so “ 😂😂😂
We don't get to see a lot of already quite good crack climbers. It's fantastic seeing Adam just cruise so much of the cellar, it helps give perspective to the Wide Boyz climbing in the same way seeing a beginner at cracks does! He's so fucking fast!

This is why you do crossovers and collaborations. Beyond just our enjoyment.
Around minute 20, there's a tiny spider climbing up and down one of the cracks while adam is climbing that same part. It feels poetic
Yet another amazing video from the Wide Boyz thanks Pete and Tom. Just goes to show why Adam is arguably the best climber around his all round skill is unbelievable, I’d love to see his Olympic competitors try this I’m not seeing the same level of success that the O Dog had!!
That was the best thing I have watched in years! Awesome. 🤓🤩
That was even more fun then what I imagined. I just spent 40 minutes smiling
Honestly this plus your first video is the perfect climbing content, laughing so much in your first video like laughing out loud like I haven’t done in ages and then this watching someone try so so hard and you guys being so supportive. You guys are the best please keep doing stuff together you are the perfect pair of people
Really like how you've edited the audio lately. Including a lot of music, but cutting it out in the more intense moments of climbing
Excellent guys. Looking forward to it...
im challenged getting out of bed daily. the power and stamina of these animals is really hard to fathom! the work they put in shows in their passion for this sport❤
A dream come true
Hope to see Adam's son in 10 years in the same celling crushing each problem with ease
just started watching, so excited! long awaiting this video. can't believe it's happening. crack on boys!
Amazing, I can't wait to see you on the rock.
By teaching Adam your tricks you've now unlocked the first future 9c+, one ending with a wide pony.
Adam is such an incredible athlete, and such an amazing ambassador for the sport :)

Joke's on you I was going to buy them at full price this morning!
Ondra’s initial reservations about the O grading seem to stem from his insane humility. I love how he got around it. 10/10 video all round.
That O 2 looks crazy 😮
It’s inspiring to see Adam being such a humble beast in the cellar
Adam is an absolute beast! You can tell that the real "secret" to his climbing is his tenacity and his iron will. Amazing really.
Awesome seeing you guys doing stuff that the O-man could NOT! Highlights your crack wizardry!
I agree with all of positive comments, but I really want to say THANK YOU for those editing/videographer skills! watching these perfect cuts making this combined-attempt-competition so lively, it was a treat!
WHAT AMAZING CONTENT. Adam is an absolute beast. KEEP IT UP BOYS!!
This might be the best content on the whole tube of you!
The amount of @wide boys videos I try to like twice is unreal
“Where the fuck is there a mono finger jam in change?!” Hahahaha
"ever so slightly softer than concrete" - not sure if Tom is talking about the padding or his head.
