RIP M-A.L. What an inspiring character, this is such a good content to watch after watching the Alpinist, good bless his adventurous soul! A rare speicimen from this wonderful blue orb.
Ditto!
RIP Marc-Andre. I didn't know of him until I watched "The Alpinist" last week. Truly an incredible climber and inspiration to any outdoor adventure-seekers. He lived short but made a huge impact and left a great legacy.
I watched The Alpinist without knowing anything about this man. Nothing ever makes me cry but when the part where they found that rope sticking out of the snow happened it hit me hard and I had to pause it and cry a little. What an amazing human being Marc was, and he lived more than most people that make it to their 100th birthday have in his short time on this earth.
Exactly, seeing that rope broke me…
RIP M-A.L. You brought a style, technique, and passion to climbing that only ever comes once in a generation. All of that came from your passion to just get out and climb for the sake of climbing. A humbleness and steadiness and steel mind that only ever comes with the purest form of unquenchable passion and love. Climbers around the world for generations perpetuum will always speak your name with the utmost respect and reverence. Your story invokes nothing but the sacred and unexplainable drive to climb and the spirituality of you, your gear, and the mountain. A shooting star forever in our hearts. Thank you, Marc. We took for granted the time we had to see your light shine across the climbing world. And the way Brette speaks about you in The Alpinist and other footage and her still very fiery passion for climbing is a next-level philosophy that anyone can admire and recognize as special. When she is talking in the end of the Alpinist, I have not cried so hard for someone I've never met. Her love for you glows in her eyes each time she talks about you. Brette, thank you. Marc, thank you. The world iwas / is a better place because of souls like you. All my love, thank you
Perfectly said
Thank you for writing this I feel the same
Live a full life or live a dull life. What a difference one letter can make. And what a difference one person can make.
He lived more in his 25 years than most of us will live in 3X that amount.
You have but two lives and the second one begins when you realize that you only have one.
Seriously this is one of the best climbing videos I’ve ever seen in my life, the music is just perfect, i think I’ve seen it like ten times and I could watch it again and again without getting tired of it, the athletes are amazing and everything is just perfect in this video.
Rest In Peace Marc, you were such a talented athlete, you are an inspiration for me and for a lot of people.
These two scaling a mountain and talk to each other like theyre underneath their bedsheets hugging each other. Soul mates.
Not going to lie, brings tears to my eyes. What a dude, great film and team. Lived the life of twenty lives in just one. Lucky to have run into you MA.
If you're unsure if you should go hiking or climbing this weekend....Marc Andre, where ever he is, says "Dude...of course". #MarcAndreForever
I am so amazed at what Marc Andre and Brette did together in his short life!! She continues God bless her, what beautiful amazing people!!
RIP MARC-ANDRE LECLERC! You are true legend..... You are true Archaeopteryx! 🤍
Marc Andre Leclerc is the definition of human passion in the outdoors you can see it in his eyes. Many great climbers/adventurers deserve more recognition, reminds me of Hayden Kennedy may they both RIP.
Thank you Marc for the way you lived your life. It has opened my eyes greatly on what is important in life. Do what you love in life. Nothing else matters.
What a fantastic way to live no matter how long brilliant stuff guys .
Marc was so intimate with the rock, it’s like he silently spoke to it and it listened.
You watch these people who do these incredible things, you genuinely feel them, and then invariably they pass before you get any chance to feel more or enough. Going by what they do mind you, the tragic sadness is mostly underscored by the fact it’s never a total surprise. R.I.P young man and the colleague who left with you. You’ll forever be young and strong.
What a remarkable young trio. Wonderful filming. RIP Marc Andre.
Speechless! Saw the Alpinist and since then been looking at his videos before he died.
Such a short time on this earth but he lived that shit to the fullest. I'm sure not many moments on this planet can compare to standing on that horn in Baffin. What a legend.
Brette, what a little sweetheart she is.
Absolute LEGEND. Remember, it is not the number of years on this earth, but the impact you've made that ultimately matters. Better to live a short life of absolute passion, conviction and ultimately the pursuit of your calling.
Brilliant little film! Marc Andre LeCler was such an exceptional talent and humble soul..........he packed a hell of a lot of climbing into a very short life ........definitely a unique human being. I would be amiss not to mention the talents of Brett Harrington. A fantastic climber and a real inspiration to all the women.........she is definitely one tough little package and she and Marc Andre made a great team both on and off route........so very saddened when I learned of Marc Andre's death .......to be sure, he will not be forgotten !!!
The human spirit of the climbers in this video is insanely beautiful. To have the courage and fortitude to go where so few of us can and with such respect for Mother Nature in all her glory is truly transcendent. Thank you for sharing this experience, for the inspiration and for reminding me what life is truly about. Every moment counts. R.I.P. Marc. Your life as an explorer is a beacon and tribute to those that have gone before and to those who will follow in your footsteps.
Rip GOAT. What an inspiration.
Legend has it that they named the route "the route of abundant question marks"...
My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.
Love ya brother, thanks for the memoriies. Will be seeing ya hopefully sometime up there.. RIP
Miss you so much Marc. Your passing has reignited my passion for climbing. Love you brother!
RIP Marc
how did he die
Descending from a climb near Juneau, Alaska. The exact circumstances are not known.
Rip Marc.
Finally a climbing moovie with climbing
I was thinking the same thing...
Watch reel rock
cooper meh
How did Marc die? That's super sad.
5 minutes in....still no climbing
Such a wonderful movie. It was an absolute honour to tie in with you brother, climb on.
OUTSTANDING ! NOTHING BUT RESPECT. , that just made my week.
idk why im so fascinated by free climbing videos...
It terrifies me and I have absolutely no urge to climb anything.
Only thing I can think of is this is a way for me to face my fears... vicariously through another person's crazy achievements.
RIP adventurous climber Leclerc.
My palms sweated watching this. R.I.P MAL. Really amazing feat you guys did!
This deserves about 100 million more views
Fantastic!!!
Marc Andre Leclerc is such an inspiration and is dearly missed.. But I can't help but feel a tiny bit of sadness every time I look into his eyes. I could easily be wrong, the man lived out his ultimate dreams and seemed to have everything he wanted... But there's something in his eyes
Thousand yard stare that didn't come from PTSD, more a realising that he knows his time is very limited as how I'd put it.
Love this. We miss you Marc Andre.
Watching this with coffee and doughnuts...I feel like a 1000000 bucks! Thanks guys!
I wish he could have lived longer. He seemed so in love with life. Rest In Peace.
what a lovely video and tribute.
Absolutely stunning! :)
All around beautiful video. Thank you
"I imagined thrashing through the jungle with a explorer hat or doing some kinda Indiana Jones type mission somewhere, and an opportunity like this is like an opportunity to be an explorer" - Marc
That sequence at 7:50 made my jaw drop. So talented
agreed, i could barely watch but couldn't look away
Bro absolute insanity. The way he climbed was so so so impressive. RIP to a legend.
Marc-Andre's climbing at the 7:30 mark is just incredible to watch. The move at 7:53 is beautiful.
So controlled, so calm and collected. The way he climbed is truly mesmerizing… what a loss.
Very well done film and super motivating.
Thanks for sharing your adventure!
Touching! Well done!

Stunning, huge respect and heartfelt condolences to all connected to Marc Andre Leclerc.
The way you made my whole body tingle with views from where you were was absolutely spine tingling! Kudos to all of you in the making of this vid to share with the world of your amazing talent and fortitude... 💕💪
What a beautiful film. I was very saddened to learn about your passing, Marc. You were clearly a great soul.
What a magnificent piece of stone with the reverence to which they showed, humbling
This had my belly going. They got guts and skill 💪🏼
Everything about this video reaches inside your mind and your heart. What a great journey

Rip Marc-Andre. Beautiful film !
The bravery/skill/strength that you all demonstrate is beyond impressive!!
The most beautiful video i've seen in my life.
Fantastic abilities, super film work, this is a great video. Made my palms sweat.
This is a wonderful little tribute in its own way even though it was not meant to be. I just watched the Netflix movie Alpinist a few days ago and was gutted. Thanks for this beauty and condolences to all that knew Mr. Leclerc and especially his family and Brette.
Guy aimait beaucoup sa famille
Ç était le drôle de son école
Riding on that ice was cool let alone that sweet ascend wow great views great video!

You guys are insane! Great film! Loved every second of it! Keep it up
LOL buddy is dead..........
amazing
Wow~~ I love Arcteryx!
It is my best brand ♡
A great memory to a great climber.
I just watched the Alpinist. I hate that you are gone Marc
I've never climbed, but it fascinates and terrifies me, in equal measure. The techicalities and terminology are therefore beyond me, but these guys are brave beyond brave. So sad to learn that Marc has passed at such a young age. A pioneer, who clearly lived his short life to the full...rest easy, dude... 😔
Hes part of the mountain ⛰ now
Now that is some gorgeous rock!
I know, the damascus effect at 8:75 is wild!
Who would dislike this video?? maaaan!!
yeah, seriously.
A former climer who escaped tragedy in a blizzard of 87. I realize now that my young brain back then ( undeveloped) was so confident I took too many unacceptable uncalulated risks. Please young people. Survive to climb another day needs to be a top consideration . Pre plan limits than you cannot break. There are too many casualties. Learn that your confidence, is your most dangerous aspect. Train your brain to only go after a well calculated success is possible.
