The Hardest Possible Climbing Fall - P.1

Спорт

What are the forces on really hard Lead Climbing Falls? Are big or small falls harder for the climber?
Massive thank you for everyone who helped me to do these experiments.
P.s. NO one got injured ;)
If you are in nerdy needs to measure forces - highly recommend to check out the new LineScale:

    13:13 Interesting. With the same height from which the weight falls, the kinetic energy at the bottom should be approx the same K=1/2mv^2=mgh So, at the bottom the centrifugal force would be F_c = mv^2/R = 2K/R(approx) reduced with more R. And the net force at the bottom would be approx the peak force if it falls straight down + centrifugal force - recoil (incase the weight stretches the rope away from the bottom part due to which it bounces) _(Not sure if that can be added/subtracted this easily, but it's going to be 2K/R(centrifugal) +/- something)_ 🤔 It'd be bad if the recoil point happens right at the bottom with peak centrifugal force.

    Great Video as always! I'm super curious about a new piece of gear a friend recommended to me. The Edelrid Ohm- Assisted-braking resistor for increasing rope friction when there is a large weight difference between the belayer and lead climber. In the event of a fall, the OHM increases the amount of rope friction to the first bolt so that a lighter belayer can hold a heavier lead climber without difficulty. What is your opinion on this device?

    Hy, i am actually very curios if any of your test buddies, got some back/hip pain out of your science project. As a professionell treeclimber i learned in all of my courses, how severely dangerous even tiny falls into a static rope are. So trying to push the limits of a fall with an elastic rope and a real climber feels a bit crazy to me. Still you aproached the testing quite safely bringing the falling-faktor slowly up and the content was interesting. So thanks from my side!!

  • @Ikaros23

    It`s zero pain. climbing belt ( climbing harness) is over your hip, and the shock off the fall is absorbed by the straps that is attached to the belt and around the thigs of the climber. The climbing rope is almost like a bungee rope and is highly elastic. The real risk is to fall hard into the wall and to break the ancles or hands. To prevent this it`s important that the belayer uses " dynamic belaying" , this technic makes the fall alot softer for the climber

  • @leeprice133

    People do gigantic rope jumps on dynamic climbing ropes - the material has enough elasticity that you can basically fall any distance without encountering high enough forces to cause serious damage.

    Good stuff! So can we calculate the max G-force that the body had to suffer in the biggest fall? Off the top of my head, that would be around 4g, no? That is pretty interesting, because in a video I made with bouldering falls the peak force was more than twice as much! Dynamic rope sure does a good job of softening the fall!

    Wouldn't the z drags actually help soften the fall? The extra friction starts absorbing force before it makes it to the belay device, spreading out the impact, and there is more rope stretch in the system to absorb force overall.

  • @HardIsEasy

    @HardIsEasy

    2 жыл бұрын

    From my experience on real climbs with a lot of drag or some experiments I saw heavy drag makes a much harder catch for the climber. I guess rope stretch is better at absorbing the impact compared to friction. In heavy friction situations rope close to the belayer doesn't get much load and doesn't stretch that much... Maybe slight friction could actually produce the result you are talking about, but I have no proofs just speculation
