My understanding…and it is rarely alluded to…albeit cold comfort…is that every “free solo” route has been already “free climbed” many times by by the free soloist to the point that virtually every toe and finger hold has been rehearsed and mentally prepared for to the greatest extent possible. It is a triumph of focus and preparation.

With Sport, above 2nd/3rd clip a ground fall is very unlikely. Maybe an overhang on a slab route possible. Trad can be a little sketch at times but that is factored in and you are often a lot more careful over those sections. Climbing is actually very safe (when following proper safety guidelines). The larger risk to climbers is actually a pulley injury from crimping too hard.

You live to climb another day if your pro holds. If what you are climbing is vertical. There are many places where a fall of twice the distance from your last pro + rope stretch, would have you smacking ledges. Then there’s the chance your piece doesn’t hold. Like when you are showing a weighted cam holding your body weight, that’s not showing shit. It depends on the placement and then proper use of sling and doesn’t take into account the pieces potentially “walking” as you move above the piece. Then how its weighted in dynamic fall.

One of the appeals of free soloing is the fact that the only thing that can protect you from falling is your own ability. Also carrying a parachute only protects you if you are above a certain height above the ground. Carrying a pack with a parachute also hinders your ability to climb.

There are only a very limited amount of climbs that would help. You’d have to be atleast 800 feet up on a completely vertical wall. That’s a misconception. Even climbs like El Cap have ledges or pillars that project outwards. It’s rare to be somewhere where you’d fall straight to the ground without bouncing off of ledges. In the same way you could fall, hit your head and even if your protection holds you can die.

The term "free climbing" is a very old term that existed long before the term "free soloing" was in use. It was coined in the 70s to differentiate between climbing of your own ability vs. "aid climbing", which is using equipment to help you get up the wall, which was almost exclusively the type of rock climbing that was done up to that point. Free soloing is an off-shoot term of free climbing, the term "soloing" being added to differentiate from just regular free climbing with gear.

You can have other people there in a free solo but they wouldn't be there to belay etc like a free climb and may also be climbing solo with or just on standby for whatever reason.
And the rope is only for protection, a freeclimber must have the same skills than a freesolo climber if the climb must being a sucess, rope are only the backups for freeclimbers.
Question that confused me, if i go free climbing and i fall does it still count as a free climb sent or does it then become aid climbing

It's never aid climbing unless you're actually pulling yourself up the wall with gear to complete the climb. If you're performing all the moves on the rock itself, it's free climbing.
These people can't convince me free climbing has the wrong definition, free soloing sounds a lot less cool

Climbers could have just called that 'solo free' and 'solo rope'.
Wouldn't free climbing just be lead climbing?

Includes things like top roping and bouldering as well since both use some sort of protection.
One needs rope to carry their massive balls the other uses their massive balls to carry them
I feel the term should reverse
“Solo” represents the lack of partner, you can solo with pro if you are self belaying
What's the misconception?

I really don't think this is a big misconception lol
Isn’t it just lead climbing. Even top rope your using everything to climb you just don’t fall as far as lead

Free soloing is like Russian roulette. Eventually you will die..
Why don’t all people who free solo wear a parachute?

One of the appeals of free soloing is the fact that the only thing that can protect you from falling is your own ability. Also carrying a parachute only protects you if you are above a certain height above the ground. Carrying a pack with a parachute also hinders your ability to climb.

There are only a very limited amount of climbs that would help. You’d have to be atleast 800 feet up on a completely vertical wall. That’s a misconception. Even climbs like El Cap have ledges or pillars that project outwards. It’s rare to be somewhere where you’d fall straight to the ground without bouncing off of ledges. In the same way you could fall, hit your head and even if your protection holds you can die.
Biggest misconception between sane and suicidal.

The term "free climbing" is a very old term that existed long before the term "free soloing" was in use. It was coined in the 70s to differentiate between climbing of your own ability vs. "aid climbing", which is using equipment to help you get up the wall, which was almost exclusively the type of rock climbing that was done up to that point. Free soloing is an off-shoot term of free climbing, the term "soloing" being added to differentiate from just regular free climbing with gear.
so in other words free climbing is for wooses😅
He's speaking of free climbing yet shows a sport climbing video. Clip. Nerd. Haha free climbing is placed gear trad gear not a bolted route. Nice try Better luck next time .
@marcelof2537

Sport climbers are free climbing. Trad climbers are also free climbing. The only people not free climbing are aid climbers, because they are using the gear to make upward progress, not just to catch their fall. I’ll never understand people who make arrogant comments like this about things they clearly do not understand.
