    This was cool, but such a short video. And not much detail, obviously it's a spectacular feat, but I would like to see more climbing and detail. More close up of your technique and strength. How long were you on the wall? From start to finish? I'm sure lots of folks out here would watch a 2 hour video of you climbing. Give us more man!

      We already have watched two hour videos of Chris Sharma's climbing. He's been around a very long time and, trust me, no straight woman climber tires of watching his technique (or any other part of him). ;) Preferred the long hair, but that was long ago; I guess he outgrew it. There are many videos out there.

    Nice place, nice guy and amazing climb. In the 90s I was told climbing was forbidden on the arch. Maybe it was wrong, or it has changed, or Chris has asked permission. If you go, take info from the locals. From May to September, you may not find a square meter to fall between all the canoes. Anyway, there are so many crags a few km around...I love this vid.

      Have you ever been there? Pont d´arc is Huge. I´ve never heared that anyone did that. But on the other hand I´ve beeing told of deadly accidents. Theres plenty of unprofessional paddlers under this arch . But also it´s brutally high. One Year a Guy died jumping into the water. His body tension was a bit to low, his leg slightly bent. When diving in, he hit his knee with the forehead and drowned. It´s not the average 50ft. bridge, it´s a "Red Bull scenery". Ardeche is such a nice Place, it calms your cravings and clears your mind. Therefore it destroys the need for stupid extremes. Unfortunately not for everybody, but I guess Chris Sharma´s caught the spirit.

      Just making to the easy ground near the top is enough - that thing is massive, nearly 40m high at its peak!

    • @pieterveenders9793
      @pieterveenders9793 3 роки тому

      Just the highest point of the arch's underside is already 35m above water, let alone the top of the arch, which is 60m high. Scores of people have died jumping off of the arch, and they had prepared themselves for it, took their time and did their best to jump in the best way possible. But falling off in an uncontrolled manner like what happened several times during this video itself is even considerable more dangerous. So a very bad idea...

      Downside to this : as a local, Vallon Pont-d’Arc has become more like a climbing tourism place in the last years, and it has lost its isolated “only known by the locals” quality. Now it’s so expensive to camp there that we sleep in our cars parked on hidden trails…

    Chris Sharma videos always show the climbing harder than it is. big holdes are hidden, and the cut and perspective is strange - he looks very weak and with no colour, he always seems to be tired and ill.... i do not believe that he has any power... every one who is training and who has got a bit fresh air and sun is more powerful and more healthy in his appearance...
