Really beautiful film. Can relate a lot.

The rock will make you fall… and then it will catch you. Yeah, I’m gonna get that tattooed. Thank you for this amazing, candid piece!

Fear of falling is currently my biggest weakness in climbing lead. I hope this gets better over time.

straight up beautiful! thank you for this movie

Poetry. Beautiful.

@Leon Buchholz wo ist den der zweite Teil?

Mit was für einer Kamera ist der 16mm Film gedreht worden.

For me, I just know that I'll be afraid and accept that. I'm however, not afraid to be afraid anymore. I don't care if I'm shitting my pants every time I fall, I ignore that part of the climbing experience and focus only on what brings me joy. Maybe some day the fear itself will disappear, I don't know, but I do know that I've decided to not care if that day ever comes.

You can fall upside down and smash your head. A helmet is a good idea,even when bouldering sometimes.The gear on Rasp is excellent ,if you have the stamina to place it. Practicing gear placement while standing on the ground is always a useful skill to learn,to make leading safer and more efficient. Fear is a component of the analysis of whether to continue going up,in combination with how pumped you are and how likely to fall off. Overriding your fear is not always the recommended course of action. The more stamina and strength you have ,the less afraid you will be. Lynn Hill nearly died on a sport route, when she failed to tie her harness knot, ended up in hospital, so be careful not to chat too much while getting started at the base of a climb.

"I had never thought about falling, although honestly I had never really fallen." - damn, if that isn't a life lesson

3:17 I don’t understand how it happened. His gear was bad ?

What an amazing film, thank you. You climb at some beautiful places, if you get a moment it would be amazing if you could list them? :-)

don't grab the rope as u fall :D

Beautiful short! Just one thing: check your landing zone before taking off ;)

When I fall, I am severely injured. I am very poor (no equipment) and I try to get stronger but someday I will fall to my death.

I actually cried.

Kinda slow but good

Amazing video, but please, wear a helmet, at least outdoors.

Wow what an inspiring video! As a new climber, so much resonates here

Nicht böse gemeint, aber ich glaube deine Aufnahmen würden sehr von einer Steadycam oder einem Stativ profitieren, ist ja ansonsten sehr hochwertig und ein gutes Auge dahinter :)

This Is probably the best video about fear of falling i've ever watched. No trick, no trainer talking, just a honest personal experience. So touching and inspiring. Thank you.

mega Schneestimmung! <3

What a Beautiful Film. Thanks a lot 🥲

Thank you so so much for these informations 🥰 Every Fall i go in a camp and we are climbing always at one day. Til yet, i was 2 times there and the first time was my first time climbing. I loved it until I was on the top. I was so scared to stretch my legs out and letting me fall... Some people had to help me. And the second time I didn't got til the top. I was to afraid 😣 Sometimes i cannot sleep at night because of the feeling that I'm different.But this video showed me how to get better and have some trust. And now I can't wait til next year 😉👍

I had these same dreams as a child! How odd is that that people, of so very different cultures, experiences, and nationalities, have the very same dream.

wear a helmet and that may help! When we climb we inevitably think about our safety. We can minimize that thought about safety when we wear a helmet. Protect your head and you protect your entire life! CLIMB WITH A HELMET!

Thanks for this video. I'm still struggling with fear. It's good to know I'm not alone and I have a chance to overcome this.

Thank you so much for this. I have been terrified of falling for my whole life and it is the fear I've wanted to conquer the most. This only made me more enthusiastic and motivated to achieve this goal.

Thank you for the video. I climb1,5 years and still have fear of falling. I can just stop climbing and start to cry cuz of that. I try to figth with that

Nice words, extremely hard to put in practice, but last sentence is the best. "When your overcome your fear you don't fall anymore, you fly". 😍

I have your (initial ) feeling and fear , I cannot climb because of this it is sad. In the past with al lot lot lot of training I manage to arrave at 8a level and 7b os (but more often just 7a beacuse of the scare of falling).. but nothing change .. I manage to force myself into multipitch(most 6c 7a) but nothigh change I still am so scared.. unfortunately i did not fall ever .. did 8a when I was trained for 8c ... I did 7a os when I could perform 8a os ... and this rouin all my climbing way... now I restart climbing after 5 year of total stop, i am fat , older , and I could not manage more than 6a (in the gym no fear or top rope i can do 7a) i don't want to re make my mistake I would like to try your way...how i can do ? I am almosto 60 now it is so difficult to change.

Inspiring...so true, the initial fear becomes your friend later, if you really love what you are doing :)

Tolles Video! Ich wusste gar nichts von dem Film, danke dafür

Beautiful short movie, I find that it goes well into the essence of this fear that, I think, we all have had at somepoint. I remember trying to on sight a 5.11a that turned into a bad 5.12 because of watery holds and mud in early season, I wasn't ready for it back then. Still, I went on about 5 or 6 clips, steadily. It was at the 3rd clip before the end of the route that, even though having a relatively stable clipping position, I fell. Major fucking whipper! Water had come out of a crack and onto one of my feet, that just flew away as I was clipping! I fell 15 meters and didn't realize it untill it had already happened. I stopped 30 cm close to a ledge and I couldn't finish the route after that. Yet at somepoint you get over it. This year I went back to another project of mine and finally passed the crux (5.12), even though having passed it I was out of energy and too afraid to finish the climb. Goes to tell you that getting over this takes time and work, but you can get there!!! Again, great video :)

This is a bit overly dramatic imo.

Can you tell me the location of these Fontainebleau like boulders? By the way are we both talking about the Harz in the middle of Germany? You could also send me the location outside of the comment section if you don't want to make it too public. I would really appreciate it because give me the chance of so high quality outdoor boulders while Corona. Nice video by the way!

Mega!

That was beautiful. I don't know why, but watching this made get kinda emotional.

Do you still use the gh5?

Mega!
