I know it gets mentioned fairly often, but I love to see the camaraderie with Stefano and Megos and Sharma and Ondra and Bosi and all the other S-tier legends. Instead of cutting each other down, like you see in so many professional sports, these guys support each other and build each other up and are equally stoked no matter who gets the send. Just pure badassery all around 🔥🔥🔥
You saw the same thing when Will Bosi did the send of Burden, and Shawn was just genuinely happy that Will got the second ascend, even though he was "competing" with him for the SA.
Such a pity that we haven't seen Megos joing forces with the other top tier climbers like Stefano and Ondra for a long time. Would be so cool to have him back with these guys.
You can almost hear tears in Sarah's voice when he sent at 18:18. What a great partner, she was just as psyched as he was. Another awesome video, Stefano.
Old Stefano has a Bishop bouldering guidebook, that must meen he’s been there quite a bit. Looking forward to the Old Stefano episode talking about him polishing off all the classic Bishop highballs during the 2024 bouldering season. Slabby top outs high above pads are the best!
I can't imagine how disheartening it must be spending multiple whole trips failing at one spot. The mental game of top climbers is absolutely incredible
thanks for telling the story of the pure beauty, the climbing experience can bear. love that you love the process. with all its ups and downs. keep it up!
Glad for you to mention what was the most important thing for you. The whole subtile experience and sharing feeling with other climbers in this adventure. Thats whats all about😊
Incredibile mental toughness! I strongly believe you are one of the greatest representative of the climbing community and that you give a significant contribution to it's improvement in collective culture!
L'altro giorno, durante un simpatico simposio tra amici, sei stato usato come esempio su come i robot siano molto lontani dal raggiungere il potenziale umano. A parte questo il video è una figata, ottimo lavoro!
Conspiracy theory: the celebratory scream here does not match with his scream in the North Face video. Either it's all a lie or these sends occurred in different parts of the Ghisolfiverse.
You're right! You cannot hear Sara in the North Face video at all. Besides that he's also clearly wearing blue pants in this video (on the send-go) and black pants in the other video. I'm guessing they just fooled us with the other video and came back after the send to record some shots pretending that that was the send-go. Kind of awkward to have to pretend the screams after having already sending it hahah
Good story. Can you single out anything in particular that made the send possible? And say you would have been working on BoD just before, could it have helped (stronger fingers)?
Janja tried it about a year or so ago, but I haven't read anything about further activities on her part. It would be super cool if this, as well as other top routes (Silence, DNA, BIG, …) were to receive further ascents.
Megos just seems to be an absolute genetic freak for climbing. If you look at specific routes he's shared with other top climbers, he almost always outperforms everyone for effort, even Ondra. He'd probably be climbing 10a's if he pushed himself like Adam, but it seems like he prefers chilling and onsighting 8c's all the time. Bibliographie was just him being dumb about the beta, if he had it right he'd probably give it 9b like his other recent FA's on hard projects lol
Ghisolfi did Bibliographie quite quickly, I think quicker than Megos. Megos is strong, but I don't like his climbing style. I think, at the moment I am writing, in this order, there are: Bouin, Bosi (I am confident he will send Excalibur), Ghisolfi, Schubert, Ondra, Megos. Adam is not at his best. Megos is a training freak, I do not think is genetic. Sharma has a superior genetic.@@La0bouchere

Good to see Old Stefano is holding up well since the last time we saw him.
You can almost hear tears in Sarah's voice when he sent at 18:18. What a great partner, she was just as psyched as he was. Another awesome video, Stefano.
never did i expect to see stefano and alex trying to twerk in between attempts on perfecto mundo
I really love, how professionally the sword is taped to the wall 😊
Gotta show the loot
Thanks for the tips on entry-level 9b+, Stefano! I hope it will come in handy.
😂
"Dancing" with alex megos
😏😏

Dude, I see myself very very old, and still listening to your stories. You have a heart of gold. Great to see someone like you pushing the sport.
LOL....the EXCALIBUR sword!!!!!! - that is pure FLEX 101!
Old Stefano never fails to bring a smile to my face! I love these throwback videos!!!
The sheer delight and passion is just amazing, lovely to see. Congratulations x
18:00 The triumphant screams when he clips the chains are beautiful
"I became a 9b+ belayer" got me laughing so hard, hehe
Love hearing the story it’s always amazing when you can collaborate with other legends in your craft to create a beautiful memory
thanks for telling the story of the pure beauty, the climbing experience can bear. love that you love the process. with all its ups and downs. keep it up!
I really enjoy watching stories behind the climb!
This series of videos is the best!!!❤
Eine wunderschöne Gutenachtgeschichte!
Danke für das großartige Video!

Great video! Thanks for sharing! Stef had me laughing multiple times with his great jokes too.
Che bello sentire Sara gioire! 😅 Grandi voi due!! Bella copia. E grazie per il bellissimo racconto che mette tutto in prospective
gran bel video Stefano, non immaginavo fosse possibile ma la parte in cui tu e Sara avete urlato di gioia mi ha commosso
I love old Stefano! He is so wise!
Dude, appart from inspiring and beautiful, this was funny! You made me laugh out loud a few times 😂 Grande!!
Does this mean you and Seb are the only two people to belay and send 9b+? I hope you can become the first person to belay and send 9c :)
Hasn’t Seb belayed Adam on Silence ?
@@koobzor good point, though not on the send go
@@patrickbryant_ ok I wasn't sure about it, thanks !
Nice story you got there, i love it. :)
Stefano is my perfecto mundo
Awesome video!
Great stuff, as always, Stefano!!
I love the Excalibur sword sticked to the wall 😆
Tu sei un goof, proprio! I'm not sure how to translate goof into Italian... This was great. Thanks for sharing your story
Thanks for sharing Stefano
great video and very great humor!
Love story time with old Stefano!
I LOVE old Stefano
Man, Silence is making you age damm fast. Maybe you should look for an entry level 9c?
This is gonna be epic
Oh, Change it's entry-level 9b+. I'll try that, then.
Very entertaining as always 😂
Heartfelt and inspiring story.
... but Excalibur?!??
A book about crack climbing on the side 🤣 he be coming for the silence
Not just the book, he's been practising in the crack cellar too! Must be preparing for silence.

Old Stefano reveals Stefano’s real life goal. To have more subscribers than Magnus.
Not sure I'm ready for Stefano in uniform, or coaching some random muscle dude up a jug ladder though
I really like these videos..🙂
so good!
Anyone know the name of the song around 9:30?
I love the implication that stefano is able to time travel in the future, what other secrets does he possess?
LLEIDA climbs !!! 😍😍😍
Soooo, for grade chasing I should try Change? 😅
Old stefano is looking pretty slim, trim and fit for an old guy.
I hope I look that good when I hit his age.
I'm only 50 !
Good story. Can you single out anything in particular that made the send possible? And say you would have been working on BoD just before, could it have helped (stronger fingers)?
The juice ;)
?@@juliangrube6319
Any plans on trying La Dura Dura?
i 💛 slab!
💪fantastico😜
Why didn't anyone even try to climb La Dura Dura after Adam and Chris? Ten years gone!
Janja tried it about a year or so ago, but I haven't read anything about further activities on her part. It would be super cool if this, as well as other top routes (Silence, DNA, BIG, …) were to receive further ascents.
The real route was the friends we made along the way...
Ha I have that Lleida climbs book at home!
Did Old Stefano got his climbing gym finally?
Super Stefăno..!!! 😂
I enjoy slabs!
Did he just downgrade Bibliographie again? 😅
Tieni duro per i Rock Master
What's with the sword on duct tape?
why nobody trying la dura dura
I believe it has been fire damaged
@@MrClarktom the bolt or the hold
Too much dura not enough passaa
Janja garnbret projected it before the fire
@@noelfrey5522 so what happened ? The bolt need to be replace ?
9:10 the German: da ist er 😂
Is this a story true?
Nah
If it is a good story, does it matter?
I enjoy slab because I have weak arms but strong legs
What about the schlong ?
Grande
Since Megos climbed this way faster, do you think at the time you climbed with him, he was considerably stronger than you?
I think it was the belayer, who made the difference.
Megos just seems to be an absolute genetic freak for climbing. If you look at specific routes he's shared with other top climbers, he almost always outperforms everyone for effort, even Ondra. He'd probably be climbing 10a's if he pushed himself like Adam, but it seems like he prefers chilling and onsighting 8c's all the time.
Bibliographie was just him being dumb about the beta, if he had it right he'd probably give it 9b like his other recent FA's on hard projects lol
Ghisolfi did Bibliographie quite quickly, I think quicker than Megos. Megos is strong, but I don't like his climbing style. I think, at the moment I am writing, in this order, there are: Bouin, Bosi (I am confident he will send Excalibur), Ghisolfi, Schubert, Ondra, Megos. Adam is not at his best. Megos is a training freak, I do not think is genetic. Sharma has a superior genetic.@@La0bouchere
I love slab
I will never become a 9b+ belayer 😢
xcalibur on the wall XD
So we are not talking about the fact that megos is literally useing super glue to climb?😂
Jokes aside, these guys are beasts! Well done 🔥🔥🔥
Madonna quanto parla il vecchio Stefano, ma quanto è saggio 😂
Certo che dopo sei viaggi, avere un video del genere per la chiusura della via è proprio una sfiga pazzesca😅😅😅😅😅
There is a not true story! Have we been lied to? 😂
Adam said that final slab is a 6b 😂
But he did not flash the 6a in font so what does he know after all ?
I enjoy slab))
Wow, he aged badly!
It the climbing that did it to him.. yall better stop while you can
will you grow a mustache when you get old?! :D
Eres la mera verga padrino
You should get that haircut and beard for real, once you are actually that old xD
Tu nn stai bene Ste
Ciao
Only psychos enjoy slabs
Hi
well dome
