Much as I hate to admit it from my indifferentf love of bouldering, that's a top effort on a top boulder route by a top climber, and well filmed.

Its been done before, but good effort at publicity anyway. The climbing shown is good too.

Is this what James does in this video? Very impressive piece of climbing in my opinion.

Clearly I am not (insert rainbow colours here) AWSOME (end rainbow colours) enough for yoiur bouldering talent requirements.
Did you even watch it? I saw it and said the climbing was good. If you are not into cheap shots then tell us what you really think.

When are you going to tick midnight lightning given it is almost in your backyard, with or without a film crew?

Bouldering is for wimps. Real men aid when in the Valley <waves furiously in M9's direction>

WOLD looks pretty cruisey, I reckon I could eat several bananas on route, a cup a tea at the lip, and a few mono chin ups for the cameras.
