In a world filled with terrible mainstream media articles about climbing, that one is uniquely cringe-inducing. I would have hoped for better from PRI.

Yeah, I was a little disappointed in PRI when I heard this on the radio an hour or so ago.

"But climbing 750 feet more or less straight up, even with a rest here and there, isn't easy." lol

Kind of a cool project though, so I thought I'd share. Thanks for the link to the better article, shoo.

Love the "legendary daredevils" description in the first link.. None the less totally fucking badass.. I love Sharma talking the red bull video "Yea so it ended up being an 8a pitch which was a little disappointing but we were really just trying to get up it". Paraphrasing of course but man haha, that guy crushes...

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
