I wasted my time young entitled spoiled by modern technology.
Really!?! Do you guys even climb outside? What ? Aren't you embarrassed ?
A waste of my time and yours with the effort you took you could have filmed
In Eldo, or Boulder canyon - what is that great 5.9 up some corner next to some bolted thing called Verve I think? Hang off those bolts and film that corner climb . . .please!
Anyway your humor and camera skills are at odds with each other. I get the the dry wit but it falls short when you could walk a paved path to Hallets peak and use your expensive gear to climb something worthy. And film it.

Edit
on second thought Hoo you guys rock!
Yes I am. Jealous and sour, seems like your crew has put out some awesome stuff in the past this did not live up to the hype. Hey bill how's it going did you find your way to Modern times? The first pitch is great.

Hey, making this video was epic!

I mean, it's gotta be incredibly hard to say those things on camera without cracking a smile or breaking out laughing.

Truely inspiring! And to think these guys put this route up without full expedition sponsorship. All this time I thought, "it will never be climbed."

I think I saw them french freeing one bit. Does that mean the FFA is still unclaimed?

I'm confused, where was Bear Gryllis in this?

I think Wesley Summers already did the FA of this line
