The fact that he climbed the Eiger north face in less than 2.5 hrs makes his 28-hr solo on the south face of Annapurna seem even more amazing. He even admitted to taking some serious risk in that climb. I'm really surprised these weren't documented by entire film crews, some of the most epic climbs in history.

Come mai criticò dani Arnold di aver attrezzato il pezzo/ traverso e poi lo attrezzò pure lui? Una caduta di stile per un campione così Why did Dani Arnold criticize him for having equipped the piece/traverse and then he equipped it too? A drop in style for such a champion
RIP Ueli Steck. A magnificent demonstration of master in climbing and mastery in life. His death does not mean defeat. It only means he never stopped doing what he loved the most. He was Unstoppable.
“The light that burns twice as bright, burns for half as long.” Ueli’s death is a tragedy for his family, of course, but, in a way, he is connected to the rest of us too. He was one of those rare individuals who, by his example, inspired the more ordinary of us to be that bit better and exceed our self-imposed limitations. Human progress does not advance by accident; it needs torch bearers to show the way and we all owe Ueli our gratitude. His family can be immensely proud.

Watching this in 2019 makes me cry... RIP Ueli, you are the LEGEND. If the undying soul do exists, i hope yours is still climbing the mountains somewhere...
Er war auch zu schnell,um das auf Kamera festzuhalten! Ich hab gehört das er sogar zweimal hintereinander hoch ist-in unter 2 Stunden! Hat er auf Biwak Fotos beweisen können!
He risked all...he paid the ultimate price. Did he die happy? Dunno. Doubt it. Did he die content? Maybe. Did he die doing what he loved? Ab-so-lutely.
Seeing how he looked on that steep mountain, all alone, yet bravely taking the steps up and, I feel like, doing it straight out of love for the mountains, adventure and moutaineering, and being humble when he reached the top, left me feeling inspired. I did not know he existed, but now I do.
I still remember the day crying when I heard of Ueli's death while climbing the Nuptse. I guess he died doing what he liked to do best...not everyone can say that. May his soul rest in peace.
May you ever rest Ueli! One of the greatest mountaineers to ever have lived, and has one of the greatest achievements of humankind. We will all cherish your time on earth.
Got news of his passing a few hours ago. Rest in peace to the legend. I believe that he died yesterday (4/30/2017) in a fall near Everest. R.I.P. to a humble and talented man. In many ways Ueli Steck and the sport are the same -- in that we all loved or admired the man. Thank you Ueli and my condolences to the family & friends he shared his life with.
Thank goodness Ueli did it in a save way! For a moment I thought speed climbing the Eiger north-face free-solo in 2:22 was slightly dangerous, now I am relieved!
He means climbing it without taking undue risk. He was a very experienced climber, and what looks mind boggling to us, Ueli had done a thousand times before. It's like saying "drive safely". Driving is far from safe, but there are things you can do to reduce your risk of an accident.
None of the replies so far seem to have appreciated the irony of your comment, yet you pointed out something very prescient, namely the inherent risk of Ueli's climbing style.
Great Ueli, I meant to say you made us dream about the good things you did ... Now crying like when I met you for the first time, thank you and I will always carry you in my heart! Thank you!
Ueli Steck, the Swiss machine did it again on 16th November 2015 - 7 years after his 2nd record in the Eiger Northface of 2:47 hours in 2008, now he bettered it down to 2:22 hours. And this at almost 40 years of age. Congratulatios! And keep on doing your climbing with as much joy and concentration as in the past.
He wasn’t humble at all, amazing skills yes. But why do bottom feeders always feel the need to post some useless nonsense “humble man” while not knowing him at all just for some attention? Shut up simpleton. Enjoy the great skills he had, but shut up about what you not know.
very inspiring this video. Ueli Steck was so brave, but also technically very well equipped, as you can see in the movie. I think he was one of the most prolific mountaineers in the world.
Immer, wenn ich seine Videos geschaut habe, wo er wie eine Gemse auf Bergen rumhüpft, dachte ich, dass ihm das mal zum Verhängnis werden könnte. Der Berg fordert nicht als erstes Können, sondern vor allem Respekt vor dem Berg und seinen Gewalten. Dieser Respekt geht beim Speed-Climbing verloren, was leider immer wieder fatal endet.

Amazing. It took the first teams 3 days to make it through that wall back in 1938. And then there is Ueli Steck who just soloed the same route in 2hours 22 minutes and 50 seconds. Absolutely amazing and inspirational. He is sorely missed but not forgotten.
October 20, 2022. I have been hiking in Interlaken this week, nothing crazy but more than 95% of people would do. Been thinking about Ueli alot. A relentless climber, gentle soul, and amazing person. RIP

Sadly, Ueli Steck took his last climb about two years ago this month (April, 2017) at age 40. It is thought that he fell over 3,000' to his death in an acclimatization climb in preparation of climbing Mt. Everest again. It seems incredible that someone who was such a successful mountaineer would die on a mountain, but he MAY have been trying for speed in his last climb. Very sad, RIP. Ueli!
I can't believe he did the whole thing in 3 minutes, 29 seconds !! Absolutely incredible I mean wow previous record over 2 hours this guy does it in just over 3 minutes !! It's just insane R.I.P my brother you will forever be remembered you absolute legend !!!! 🙏🙏

Still missing you January 2021 RIP.
I watch these videos to help me feel bad about myself
'Try to get my record back' is an understatement. Too humble.
Rest in Peace, HERO!
Die weltberühmte Wald-Hinkelmann Free Solo Route auf der Eiger Nordwand wurde nach Stefan benannt, da er zu Kindergarten Zeiten diese Route tagtäglich passieren musste. Auf den Weg dahin ist es üblich ein Napalm Feuer mit ein Heuerfolzbohrset zu entfachen. Heute kennt man das unter den Name Stefans Prinzip.
this guy climped up a the eiger nordwand in 2 hours , i played games on my ps4 the last 2 hours ... hmmm
LOL!
No, it took him almost 3 hours but he didn't have his joystick in his hand the whole time.
You did right. You were save and you are still alive. Life is much more than a constant rush of adrenaline.
That's one way to look at it. Another would be that Ueli lived more in 40 years than most of us could live in 100.
Most of us have better things to do with our time than go up and down the terrain.
Watching this after reading about the history of attempts to be the first to climb the north face is just immense
Farewell to a legend. RIP
I’m here after watching the Eiger Documentary. Im not a mountain climber, but from the comments below, I am very disappointed finding out that Ueli has indeed passed away. My condolences to his family.
