Jimmy Chin....what can I say.
The more i see about him the more i am impressed.
Such a calm am pleasant chracter. Such a great climber and such a good filmmaker.
Hands down Jimmy.... of all the "superstars" of the climbing- and extremesportscene he is my favorite and a bit my hero.
I can only agree.
Agree, and such an amazing athlete
Rest in Peace, David.
I really loved this interview.
The attutiude and the respect and the kindness.
Met David at Recapture Lodge in Buff, Ut. many years ago. Read many books of his and loved his crisp clean style of adventure writing. RIP Great post
This is such a calm, lovely conversation - they both have soft voices and speak at a deliberate, unhurried pace - just from the auditory aspect, they could make great ASMR, except nobody would fall asleep because the stories they're telling are completely riveting!
I was going to comment something simular!
Jimmy seems so humble and naturally modest. It is really refreshing.
He’s so humble & mindful.
Great interview,
no bells and whistles - just amazing stories
What a refreshingly nice and modest guy. If Asians want a positive role model, Jimmy Chins the guy.
Why only for Asians? Jimmy is a role model for ALL.
Long live Jimmy,so we can still enjoying your stories!!!What a man!!
This was by far the best documentary I have seen in a long time on climbing/friendship/patience. The need they all have to accomplish this climb - must be born with it. Go for the dream.....and thanks for letting us look thru the lens.
David Roberts and Jimmy Chin. Two hard corp expedition alpinists. David capturing his stories in the written word and Jimmy in film. What a great interview!
I love Jimmy Chin. That's all I really wanted to say.
I wish he was like an older brother of mine lol. He’s so inspiring, kind, and humble. Really enjoy listening to his interviews. Free Solo and Meru were amazing.
I get that feeling too. Iv been serching for answers so much in my life and i feel like having a mentor/ older brother/sister who i look upto to help find the illusive answers would help me fight the urge to quit the fight. Life's just too hard iv been struggling for my whole life but the past 5 years have been the worst by far. Its only because of people like jimmy and alix tommy sanni so on and so on that i keep trying to be happy .im fascinated how these people cope with such difficult things if only i could have 1% of that i feel i could fly so high and actually achieve thats all i want to feel worthwhile wanted and usefull idk sorry to go on just sometimes a comment like yours really gets in my head
@@nickkendall3764 my brother, i am only 24 and i seen the top and now the bottom. worst 3 years of my life losing EVERYTHING. Stick im their brother and take control of your destiny, and pray to god wether your religious or not.
Meru is the best mountaineering movie of all time, second to none
I haven't seen it, but Everest strikes me as the film of films: it is a great true-life drama, it has genuine footage (from the IMAX team of the same year), it has a fabulous soundtrack, and despite what Ed Viesturs or Krakauer or anyone else might imply, there were people on the mountain at the time during the crisis that advised on the film for accuracy. Everest, totally gripping whether you care about climbing or not (sailing's my thing: Donald Crowhurst and Deep Water, eh?) has my vote!
@@amandajstar Go see Meru!
@@amandajstar Everest was a well made film, but it doesn't celebrate climbing and mountaineering the way Meru does. Everest is ultimately a tail of a disaster that came about from human error and unpredictable weather. Meru is a far better film.
@@Chasstful Charles, I agree with your first point, but I disagree with your conclusion: because Everest showed humans the way (some of them) are, and the confusion at the root of their motivation, Everest is a human drama for the ages, and far more valuable as such.
@@amandajstar Well agree to disagree. I was inspired by Meru, while I was disgusted by some of the real life characters in Everest. People like Beck Weathers and Sandy Hill Pittman were over-privileged people who had no business on the mountain and played a part in the death real mountaineers and Sherpas. Btw, there are better documentaries about Mt Everest.
what a great interview....two legends....inspiring, uplifting, exciting, informative....Jimmy is so chill and talented.....
jimmy is a legend
Legend!
Awesome interview!
fantastic interview - I'm not sure if jimmy and chai knew each other when this was made but I can see why chai fell for jimmy - and having watched free solo I can see why jimmy fell for chai. amazing talented couple
Wonderful guy, lot of respect for Jimmy.
Thanks Jimmy. You are amazing.
Great insight on the journey thanks guys awesome
50:05 - Yea, take life as it comes . . . I love that his is a perfect demonstration of how to flow with his passion and recognize the opportunities and grab it before they disappear.
50:11 - It's like, yup, 've been there, done that, what's next! Such a wonderful life! And he is still so young, got so much time ahead of him. :)
He's almost 45, young, but on the down haha, but then again I'm drooling with jealousy
One doesn't know by watching mountain climbing movies. But this guy tells you much more.
Wow. Learned lots of interesting stuff about Alex Honnold's personality from this.
You are such an absolute amazing man. Most people massage as talented are you, have an ego the size of Mount Everest.
Very impressive track driving, especially with all the driving aids off, or on in the background.
I love Jimmy chin. He's awesome 😀
jimmy you are a beast , love you
Good morning from Indonesia-
Where there groupies? Don't remember....brilliant
I am scared of meting Jimmy and him asking me if I know and I dont
Could see how jimmy got uncomfortable when the interviewer start asking questions only about Alex Honnold
Awesome
I have to call BS on what was said about Alex and the welfare issue. There is a VAST difference between using one's own resources to help the less fortunate (what Alex did) and forcing one's fellow citizens at gunpoint to to help both the deserving and undeserving (what the welfare state does). There is absolutely no contradiction whatsoever about being charitable oneself while also despising the welfare sate.
'Commit and figure it out'. Sounds like a skier..........
wazzzzzzaaaaap
in most case Jimmy Chin were send to die by national Geographic.
Tuu。mhju
The happy donkey affectively interest because goal considerably scold beneath a alike dessert. tightfisted, mindless valley
