- The first in our 'Never Give Up' series of documentaries follows crack climbers Tom Randall and Pete Whittaker as they attempt 125 climbs, 22 mile run and 0 sleep all in 24hrs. Read the full story www.g-shock.co.uk/climbers
Having trained their bodies for years, the two elite climbers have tackled some of the hardest climbs on the planet, specialising in a painful style known as crack climbing. Nicknamed the ‘WideBoyz’ for their skills in ‘off-width’ crack climbing - one of the most difficult types of cracks to master, the duo are constantly on the lookout for new challenges.
Produced and directed by Kash Black - Розваги
Thumbs up purely for that time lapse shot around 3:50. Epic!
Watched it over and over again! Kinda magic!
it was truly incredible, not the level of cinematography i’d expect from a watch brand and my favourite crack addicts
132 Whillans and Brown routes, trail running to each one. In 12hrs. What the actual fuck. These guys are machines surely. I salute you!
One of the best climbing films ever! The editing and the music are amazing!
The level of fitness is really, really impressive. I mean these dudes are effin’ running between climbs and sending like there’s no tomorrow. I get gassed after 3 go’s on a 5.10b with a warmup on a 5.9. Anyways really, really impressive guys.
Beautiful cinematography at the 3:42 segment. In fact, the whole thing was really well done!
Best video I've seen in months
A formidable challenge, some fantastic scenes, emotions invoked and some cool music. ATB Mark.
Amazing work guys! Some might say it's useless, but I personally appreciate how much effort you put into the sport guys! Amazing!
That was epic. Stanage time-lapse was superb
The song starting at 6:40 is Fjokra - Get Amongst It in case people were wondering
nice!
I was, and thank you!
Lol smash an amazing physical feat that they trained a decade for and Pete @ 10:05 "ah nice one" hahaha
Beautifully filmed and edited!
just wow! for the effort and video
That was absolutely incredible!!!! Sounds like 24Hours of Horseshoe Hell at Horseshoe canyon Ranch.
Inspiring.
So awesome, inspiring!
What's the music from 6:50 on, please?
Full sound track?! anyone?! please...!!!
Shazam it!
rock boots? havent herd that one before
Conquers of the useless. I love it. Good job boys.
Music name please ?
Just throwing it out there, they can't have run all the way. Connecting ramshaw roaches then over to stanage and froggat etc is more like 43 miles.
Think they'll have ran the Eastern edges and then driven over to the Western grit.
casio !!!!
Any help with song playing at 6:50 please???
+Jamie McCormack thanks pal
What was the song called???
Sorry Clarence the old comment has disappeared and I cant remember what he said it was!
WuTangChillaBee the fuck you say to me?Clarence? im not that little gross green fuck.
aww fakk yee nah yee nah nah nah nah yee fak!
Rasp at 4 A.M .
It's a g shock commercial!!!!
..so how would you do your challenges with that huge amount of hours ..and without an sponsor?..
Gotcha 😆
3:18 Is he really belaying like this from the top?
why not?
because there will be no braking effect in case of a fall
There is. It's a common top belay in the UK.
How do you call it? Looks to me like an atc guide or something similar. Of course you can belay from the top with an atc guide but not like he does. If it is a different method please tell me how you call it or send me a description!
It's priobably an easy route for both of them so I'm sure they weren't worried about a fall. Plus pete probably weighs quite a bit less than tom anyways.
Im all about personal challenges etc but am I the only dude that finds these docu's to be a bit pretentious. Not the dudes fault but the producers always try to make it seem as if climbing a rock is equal to working on a cure for cancer. Come on man, it's just like when you were a kid and climbed to the top of that swaying tree - it ain't nothing special - it's just climbing and digging it. All this commercialism seems to kill the magic. For me anyway - just my take.
+Maddox Bromley it doesn't take much to climb that tree as a kid--some rock climbing first ascents took years or decades. Sure it's not as impactful to society as curing diseases but that doesn't mean it's easy or meaningless. You can make impressive achievements in any field.
You can say the same thing about any sports then. These guys are pushing the limits of climbing just as Kipchoge is pushing the 1st sub 2hr marathon.
Agreed with the others, what's motivational is not the climbing in itself, but the mentality it takes to be the best, 99.9% sit on our arses compared with those who strive to push the boundaries of whats possible.
