Massive congrats to Will for his recent 2nd ascent of Burden of Dreams. And thanks to him for joining our video. Check out Wills channel www.youtube.com/@williambosi We're also both (Pete and Tom) proud to be supporting Climber’s Against Cancer for its 10 year anniversary. Having known John (the founder) personally, we know he'd be totally psyched with where the charity is today and how it's grown. In the last 10 years CAC has raised and donated half a million £s to 14 different countries across 5 continents, and for the 10th anniversary the charity is targeting 10 large donations of another 10k each!! The 10 year anniversary tshirts (what I'm wearing in the video are on a limited edition run. There are 1000 prints and once they're gone, they're gone. Head over to The Climbers Against Cancer website to purchase and donate. www.climbersagainstcancer.org/
Yea, I think in general people don't realise how strong he really is. He's just very gifted as a climber, would be a top level boulderer if he wanted to invest the time
It's preturnatural! It's basically a superpower at this point. But then, his hands look like (and I've said this before) something you'd buy from Wicks and when you get home your wife says "you've gone over the top again, alm we needed was a spade!"
That blew my mind. Because I remember the first time I discovered that all traceurs I know (parkour people) were serious stoners! I mean I am one too but I started long before parkour and climbing. Or, wait, was the joke about alcohol? You guys don't drink, do you?
I love how stoked Pete gets from holding the positions and pulling. It's like he's suddenly motivated to project a hard crimpy problem, which would be awesome to see.
I feel like this is not only impressive because of how well Pete does on the Boulder but also that he did this at midnight after a few mad days setting for crack fest! 💪💪💪💪
The fact that I'm not surprised how well Pete did... I do wonder if that's more me also not having one real clue about climbing or Pete being incredibly humble.
Glad you managed to accomplish something on this problem Pete ! Today was my first time doing a Sunday morning climb session ... I really was not really in the mood to warm up .... I Thought going slow might be enough. Welp it wasnt ... My left elbow is totally out for the next 3 days :( !
You should get Ned out there to make replica holds using molds rather than 3D scans. He made some replica holds from The Ace and they have actual grains and everything, pretty incredible how they made them!
Hollywood trailer voice - "His wee Scottish fingers!" 😂 I nearly spat my drink out. (early) Edit: Pete's triple cowlick hair makes me want to grab him in a headlock and give him a good old fashioned monkey scrub. What a legend. Screenshot for posterity!! 😂
Pete, seriously. We all saw you surprised yourself on every position, even getting close-ish on a few moves. I reckon if you try 4,000 times like Nalle did , YOU WILL CLIMB BURDEN OF DREAMS .

Question: do climbers cheat sometimes by the belayer taking the weight on crux moves? Is this a thing and is it just called out when seen or used when making videos? Is this why comp. climbs don't allow belayers?
I’ve always called this/heard it called a “power belay”. Where on top rope the belayer jumps and takes in as much slack as possible to help boost the climber through a crux move. This isn’t used to cheat necessarily, but I’ve done it when I can’t do a move but want to try the rest of the route. Or you are outdoors on a multi pitch route and everyone needs to get to the top so you can keep going. Comps are all either bouldering, which is done unroped and doesn’t have a belayer. Or lead, which does have a belayer, but because the climber is taking the rope up with them, you can’t do this same power belay because there is always slack in the system. So this wouldn’t be an issue in comps.
@@madisonpombo859 You can still cheat with the belay on lead! On steep climbs especially, a thight belay can really help holding the swing when you cut feet! It is still not an issue during competitions because of how much slack they leave in the system, as said previously, both so the falls are soft and injury free, and so that the rope doesn't help / grief climbers
They are scanned from the real boulder problem, then moulded from a computer 3D scan. The dimensions are tricky as they are shaped, featured and uncut/Slopey like real rock.
@@pol479 the size (relatively speaking) are not that small. It is the distance between them, position of feet and angles of the hold on the wall that I thought made it insanely diffuclt. Actually holding them is not too bad (again relatively speaking)
@@SpartaSpartan117 Oh ok, thank you very much, I just recently got in to climbing and the climbing grades are pretty confusing. Thanks for the clear answer.

Because of how humble and jokey Pete is I sometimes forget how insanely fucking strong he is
Yea, I think in general people don't realise how strong he really is. He's just very gifted as a climber, would be a top level boulderer if he wanted to invest the time
i watched all of his videos with magnus, and some crack fest videos and never realized how strong he was until watching the wideboyz movie.
i remember seeing him wandering around my local climbing gym then leaving
It's preturnatural! It's basically a superpower at this point.
But then, his hands look like (and I've said this before) something you'd buy from Wicks and when you get home your wife says "you've gone over the top again, alm we needed was a spade!"
@@wyattmadsonI'd love to see Magnus do one of his grip strength videos with Pete and an arm wrestler, maybe Schoolboy or (dream) Devon!
Pete: "I'm so stoked I almost nearly made a move!"
Us: "Don't fall on the wooden wedge thingy!"
bro i was suffering, like just mooooove it!!! lol
I was so confused. 😭
That sober joke made me gremlin laugh
Lmfoaoo
YEP
And me 😂😂
That blew my mind. Because I remember the first time I discovered that all traceurs I know (parkour people) were serious stoners! I mean I am one too but I started long before parkour and climbing.
Or, wait, was the joke about alcohol? You guys don't drink, do you?
@@AntonAdelson yes it was about alcohol
It always cracks me up when Pete hops on something really hard and is surprised that he’s super strong.
That intro sequence is absolute gold. Props to Will for the send!
If you enjoyed that intro you'll also enjoy this one if you haven't already seen it 😀
ua-cam.com/video/8fSiMovU-1c/v-deo.html
So cool Pete! Tried this the other day, incredibly impressed how solid you looked on it. Thanks for giving us the great content ❤
Oooh nice, video soon? 🤫
Ah nice, Look forward to your video Emil 👍 and actually meeting in a couple of weeks!
"What's the hardest you've ever bouldered sober.." got me in tears 😂
I love how stoked Pete gets from holding the positions and pulling. It's like he's suddenly motivated to project a hard crimpy problem, which would be awesome to see.
I think Pete has to be one of the most positive and optimistic people ever.
If anyone can do E1 to E10 in 10 days, its Will
For sure.
Man will is such a humble beast! I would be super hyped to see him taking on some real hard trad routes. Awesome video Pete!
I feel like this is not only impressive because of how well Pete does on the Boulder but also that he did this at midnight after a few mad days setting for crack fest! 💪💪💪💪
Good company always helps 🤙💪
Anyone else getting minor amounts of anxiety watching Pete jump around that wooden box right underneath him??
Ye, that's kinda terrifying. Any ideas what is it exactly and what is it for?
Outdoor boulderers have confidence in landing around obstacles in the ground
@@halfmanhalfsober8098 If you pause at 4:38, you can see he's using it to get a leg up and into the position.
You actually might have this you know…maybe time to commit to the goal! Awesome!
And i ... i basically... TICKLED THE HOLD! :D
The editing is just *chef's kiss*! Great job!
What an intro! Genius.
Was laughing about that "on crack" joke for the rest of the video........ Brilliant!
Will has such an nice average joe-feel about him. Very humble and truly nerdy about the sport. Love it
You're an achiever Pete . . . thinking and persisting! 😊
Oh my God Pete that was SO IMPRESSIVE! Loved the video and the intro was magic
Production value off the charts
Wow, Pete! Strong effort! Pack your bags for Finland, mate.
Do you think this replica thing might kick off and we'll see some classic boulder problems in regular gym settings? Would be fun!
Massive props for sneaking in one of my favorite words here: rugosity.
Guys that intro may be the peak form of the internet, pure gold
I feel like this custom hold set would be something a lot of gyms would be interested in
The location of that wooden wedge on the floor gave me so much anxiety while watching this video.
Intro is A W E S O M E
The fact that I'm not surprised how well Pete did... I do wonder if that's more me also not having one real clue about climbing or Pete being incredibly humble.
I see that polar bear moving about the same way in my nightmares.
Nice moves Pete, I almost got you on my wooden structure so many times. The sprainedankleR
Best. Intro. Ever. 👏
Great video. I’m so stoked to go climb now!
Brilliant effort. Enjoyed that
Amazing into 😂
Best intro ever 😂, awesome chesterfield 🤟
i love Pete positive energy on everything
1st ascent done 2016. That is mindblowing 🤔
Watching Will and no this it confirms to me that the problem is more the movement dynamics and not the strength needed to hang off the holds
Who cares about climbing man, that intro was so good it made me pinky campus my entire gym.
You had me at the polar bear 😂
Outstanding Intro!! 😂
Glad you managed to accomplish something on this problem Pete !
Today was my first time doing a Sunday morning climb session ... I really was not really in the mood to warm up .... I Thought going slow might be enough. Welp it wasnt ... My left elbow is totally out for the next 3 days :( !
Better buy a ticket to Finland 🇫🇮 Not only can you try out Burden of Dreams, but you can climb the crack just to the right of it!
And you can try some trads which are among hardest in the world. Humble finns gave humble grades.
Cool cool cool but that wooden wedge was more terrifying than any route
I think if we find some finger jam into kneebar beta then Pete will be able to climb 9A
Will should come check out the Red River Gorge if he does a US adventure 😁
I”d love to see E1 to E10 with Will!!
💯 this needs to happen
Whoa! Pete basically did the third ascent of Burden.... basically...
First silence, now this.
Pete is a legend.
good effort!! I'd be so happy if I could hold any positions on that
so gnarllyyyyy
Get em Pete!!
You should get Ned out there to make replica holds using molds rather than 3D scans. He made some replica holds from The Ace and they have actual grains and everything, pretty incredible how they made them!
@4.20 that did make me laugh.😂😂
You underestimate yourself brother. You are among the 0.01%. Keep up the good work.
Praise be the mutant scot 🙏
Health and Safety want a word 😂
wwauw it looks like those custom holds are 3D printed. I wonder what type of polymer was used.
Damien feels in the start.
These replica holds are selling fast I need one set in my local gym
¡Penguins in bondage, FTW!
I can't help myself: there are no polar bears in Finland
Any penguins in climbing harnesses?
Quite obviously there are and we’ve included the footage as proof 😂😂😂
Hollywood trailer voice -
"His wee Scottish fingers!"
😂
I nearly spat my drink out.
(early) Edit:
Pete's triple cowlick hair makes me want to grab him in a headlock and give him a good old fashioned monkey scrub.
What a legend.
Screenshot for posterity!! 😂
if penguin flipperoos aren't a move soon, I will be disappointed
I wanna see Pete on the real burden now
Pete, seriously. We all saw you surprised yourself on every position, even getting close-ish on a few moves.
I reckon if you try 4,000 times like Nalle did , YOU WILL CLIMB BURDEN OF DREAMS .
looking like a comp climber trying to get the plus =P
“V1 in my gym”
pete loves downplaying how many hard trad routes hes done
Hey Pete! Huge fan and I was curious if you have a distributor for crack gloves in Utah?
Can you buy theses holds somewhere. Just to feel how bad they are!
But can it be jammed
Maybe by the next generation of jammers
And can Adam Ondra find a kneebar?!
Pete = legend.
Get will on shadow play, and violent new breed. See if they are actually possible or not.
Once again we are reminded Pete is actually a bionic mutant in disguise.
Yeh bouldered 8b . . . . Bullet proof day 1 progress on 9A / +
9A*
8b… but on crack! 😂😂
apparently the replica is less overhanging though
where polar bears roam
I wanna know how hard the crack boulder problem just to the right of BOD is 🤔
I’ve been wondering that too 😂
Easy for Pete.
@@craigbritton1089 he’d flash it for sure 😄
How you not moving that piece of wood mannnn!!

pete should drag toby to finland
- Whats the hardest boulder you’ve ever done
- 8b, but on crack
Hahaha ok i see you crackhead pete
Go FA the wide crack next to burden
does anyone know the dimensions of the holds ? I have not seen a single thing about this
They are scanned from the real boulder problem, then moulded from a computer 3D scan. The dimensions are tricky as they are shaped, featured and uncut/Slopey like real rock.
@@WideBoyz thanks for the reply, would be cool if aidan gave the 3d scan ! I'd like to have an idea of how bad are the holds
@@pol479 the size (relatively speaking) are not that small. It is the distance between them, position of feet and angles of the hold on the wall that I thought made it insanely diffuclt. Actually holding them is not too bad (again relatively speaking)
@@WideBoyz thanks for answering !!
Polar bear in a forest?
Penguin in a harness 🤷♂️😂
The polar bear cracked me up, don't touch it 😂
Your strength lies in routes with 5000 moves? Ok xD
"A company in Chesterfield" care to elaborate?
Core Climbing
So they're saying this is 9a? Didn't Adam Ondra do 9c? shouldn't this be like a lot easier than that?
F9A that is a bouldering Grade, equivalent to V17. Silence is 9c (note the lowercase) which is sport climbing grade, equivalent to 5.15d
@@SpartaSpartan117 Oh ok, thank you very much, I just recently got in to climbing and the climbing grades are pretty confusing. Thanks for the clear answer.
Get that damn slant board away from there!!! Geez this is stressing me out so much.
Pete really is a loveable guy
How is the Shawn Raboutou clip the most replayed part?... You should all be ashamed of yourselves!
(He is cool though..)
