You should get into climbing, live your life how you want and don't let people stop you! If you don't want to do climbing find another hobby. Stay busy and your life will be great
Brad was kind enough to say hi to me and ask me about my broken leg. He sat next to me when we both first watched his reel rock film on the nose speed record at the Castro theatre in SF. He smelled like a dirty climber but his heart and soul filled the entire theater with laughter and awe. RIP my brother.

As a climber I feel sorry to write this, but: It is known, that there are brave climbers and old climbers, but almost no old brave climbers. I think: He died, because of "safety third". No knots? How ignorant referring the risks could someone be? Sorry. He was a very good climber (very much better than i am), but -in my thinking- he died because of his ignorance auf undeniable risks.
@@hunterh1033 Rappelling has taken many life's. I have been out of the sport for a long time but some of things people do these days makes no sense. Simul rappelling like Simul climbing just seems like a bad idea. Everyone just keeps pushing it. Its truly sad.
RIP 💔Right before I went to Yosemite last year, I was at a film festival where they showed a video of Brad. Went to Yosemite and got to meet him there. Such a cool quirky person and an amazing climber!
I spent my summer working in the employee gym in Yosemite watching Brad bum wifi and try to finesse free meals in the cafeteria. Such a humble down to earth guy. You would've thought he was just another Yosemite climbing bum if you didn't know his face. Rest in peace man.
Let’s just take a moment to appreciate how he clipped that QuickDraw like it was a cam, he unclipped it and put it in his mouth and instinctively tried to grab a trigger 😂
haha, on my last trip to the US, I have been exactly at the parking spot. I had a look at the climbs, put my climbing gear back into the car, went for a hike and had a beer in Moab.
@@timtimson313 what does a climbing route in the desert have to do with a rappelling accident in Mexico?? Be safe, triple check your knots and climb on
Darius Allison climbers die all the time by rappelling off the end of their ropes, so I was staying to “close the system” by tying knots at the end of the ropes before you rappel so you can’t rap off the end
A great film about a phenomenally bold, strong and committed climber. Whilst I think Cedar's heart was in the right place, I think his film doesn't do Brad justice. He is an amazing climber and the fact his persona bucks the trend of being "cool" I think in reality this talks to so many more people in climbing because it is so honest. I hope that the sponsors and film makers are reading or listening to these kinds of comments!!
I keep coming back to this video of Brad for that exact reason. Although endearingly goofy, he was a wise soul with some impressive fucking technique (that stemming sequence was simply beautiful).
Brad Gobright, a very brave and talented climber and explorer of heights, RIP. I wish I had your determination and spirit of adventure, and bravery to see all those wonderful sights. All good wishes for Brad's family and friends.
I climbed for twenty years but had to quit because of overuse injuries. I was never really concerned about dying when I climbed but I definitely have more respect for the dangers of it now; probably because I'm a dad.
Same here. My elbow let me down. Now that I have a family I could never do the things I once did. I always knew it was dangerous but I was confident. My kids and wife need their dad around. Now I ski and mountain bike for my adrenaline needs. Take care.
No need to be in denial. James is right. Brad WAS a risk taker. We all knew it, and he did too. The difference is that James Taggert is still alive, and his family and friends aren't grieving. Be careful out there folks. RiP Brad
I bet he'd be a lot happier if he was still alive doing what he loved. You can't boil it down to that, and I can't imagine falling 300 meters to your death is "doing what he loved" either. That fall is more than long enough to realise you're dead. I've taken huge sport falls and had time to think "why haven't I stopped yet?". Absolutely terrifying way to go, and I feel so sorry for him, and his family and friends.

Great little documentary. I'm not a climber but I can certainly feel his good character. Sad he passed away but he did it climbing.
What makes these great climbers great is their incredible endurance, unbelievable. RIP Brad, you were an incredible human being.
Dude is a sick climber... The whole sketch artist angle doesn't do him any justice.
He was slick. Dead.
Some of the sickest climbing I've ever seen. Truly an inspiration. Rip Brad🤙
He actually seems quite professional in this video lol

“I’d rather be doing this than working some full time job even if I was making millions” is what living is.
