Maybe it's the lack of some bangin' techno?

On the edge of my seat at times - amazing piece of work and so evocative

Probably. The music is perfect!

Just turn them off if you can't ignore them.  It was probably just someone on a phone with fat thumbs. 

Or maybe someone who doesn't like all the facebook nonsense still being appended to the link.

The 'dialogue' is perfect too.  I sound a lot like those guys while I'm climbing.

Sorry, no - it’s like cafe loyalty cards: you have to get ten.

Can you dislike your own comments (repeatedly)? Or will that upset the ethics police?

With a difference? Looked fairly realistic! Or is that just me...

I think that is it's genius (or one of them anyway); it has so many terribly familiar little touches.

I gather that was just the perma-gumby couch expert police noticing the American Death Triangle at the first belay. Oops, I just did notice it and had to call it out as well, I guess I am a perma-gumby couch expert too...

Great film though! Thanks for bringing it out

Like a cartoon (well that’s what it is I guess) - it exaggerates things for comic effect but we know that it’s kind of true.

Must be made by climbers because for once the technical stuff is reasonably accurate!

Not just the technical stuff but little things which only a climber could relate to like the rope getting caught under a flake.

At least any non-climber who's watched this will no longer have to ask "How do you go to the toilet up there?"

Loved it!

YouTube have pulled it.  Copyright issues.  I guess the translated version wasn't authorised.  Here's an alternative link to the original Spanish language version (it's only the newspaper headlines and photo captions anyway):

That one isn't working either. Hopefully it can become available again, it's brilliant.

Pants, so it isn't.  I thought that one was legit.  Ah well.
