That was exciting to watch.

Can you put a link from the "calcaneal (heel) fracture from climbing fall" thread to this vid?

That one made my feet hurt. Enough that I almost turned it off.

I wonder if Duncan thinks this one is dull too?

This page: http://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crag.php?id=10890 gives it E8/8a+ and font 7c+ and then the description gives it E8/7a, font 7c+, but i'm guessing the 7a should be an 8a:

An utterly inspiring highball (E8 7a) face climb, rightwards up the shield to a good hold, then weaving left and right linking subtle protruberances, a long way above a decent landing.

I'd say 8a+ is a french route grade, 7c+ is obviously a boulder grade, and 7a is the british technical grade.
