The HARDEST sport climbing MARATHON in the WORLD?
Спорт
Follow Alex through a full day of climbing and biking around his home area, the Frankenjura, while he attempts the crazy challenge of climbing 10 routes from 8b to 8c in 10 hours, using an e-bike to get to each route.
The lineup of routes includes only old-school classics, from crimpy vertical to overhanging and pockety.
And this proves again, the Frankenjura is just the best area in the world for a casual training day ;-)

„Du hast dir schon die Eier geleckt, du bist schon warm“ - best comment! A quote for a Cafe Kraft T-Shirt.
seriously, this is just insane. there you can see how strong these actually are. 10 routes 8b-8b+/c in a singele day. and he looks so confortable on it. respect

Maaan your so right!!! sane thing i had in mind!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣 love it thänks Alex;)
I just bursted out laughing because I realized Alex is literally climbing life project climbs for me with the most unbothered music I have ever heard 😂
One of the best videos you’ve made. Well done. So so casual, It was like watching a gecko just doing it’s thing
Cool implicit message. So much of elite climbing is about travelling around half the globe, and while that may just be how it's got to be for the best, it's refreshing to see a pro appreciating the local. Music choice is fire btw.

The fact that he can do 10 of those rputes in a day foretells that he won't have much new routes to enjoy before long haha, for those monsters of climbing i guess it makes a bit more sense to travel to find something that feels properly hard for them, but for most of us that will never reach the max grade of our locals crags it makes a bit less sense for sure

You say "the local", but the Frankenjura isn't exactly just some random crag.

@@Aaron-xq6hv I don't get your point. He's literally climbing at crags he can reach with his bike within hours. Why the fuck would that not align with the concept "local"? Why the fuck do you assume I don't know what the Frankenjura and its dimensions are?

Best Video on this channel yet. In my opinion. Lots of rock climbing. Incredible how Alex hikes these hard lines!
Paar Routen davon hatte ich schon gesehen in der Frankenjura und hatte mich gefragt wie man das klettert. Einfach festhalten und hoch ;) Sehr cooles Video Danke!

"Höher treten, höher greifen" Ist auch immer ein guter Spruch. :D Besonders zweieinhalb Meter über dem letzten wackeligen Keil.
Endlich die Beta zu einem meiner Projekte erhalten, auch wenn ich es wohl nie. So klettern werden kann😅👍🙏
Mega Aktion, sah fast nach einem Spaziergang aus. Super gefilmt, besonders die Dronenaufnahmen waren klasse
Nice production quality! Love it!
would love to see more of this content in the future, even if it is just simply blogged bouldering content. Always love seeing climbing content from you :) keep it up, best climbing channel ever
One of my favorite videos of yours, the quality of filming and getting to see so much movement on so many routes is a treat. Such authentic vibes throughout. Thanks!
insane climbing and well filmed
That 'Father and son' waltzing part was the best! However awkward it might sound at first, it's just fascinating how well the music goes with the pace, the movement, the footwork, the footage. I'm already rewatching.
Great video, love the music 🔥 Crazy how easy he makes these look!!
Great video!!!!! Absolutely loved it
Hammer! Sehr schön anzusehen und Mega gefilmt!!!
Such an elegant climbing style!
Really great video alex! And the music was awesome ! 🤩😂
Nice tutorial for a endurance session in Franken. Thanks Alex! I will do this next Time when I'm there in my dreams.
Awesome video, great show of Frankenjura, and fantastic music!
it might just be my mood at the moment but I just absolutelly loved this video
Amazing video, actually really fun music and incredible to see someone climb so amazing like this
This was an insanely good video. The music complimented the great climbing and the beautiful nature quite nicely.
I really like the idea with the bikes!
Ein sehr tolles Projekt!!! Was ein Sender!
this music... makes this routes like walk in the park... Amazing Alex! You are beast!
Honestly a true masterpiece all the way from the editing to the soundtracks. You've really stepped up your quality in video production over the last year!
i;m still at awe from Alex's strength and endurance, crazy stuff
Geiles Video und krasse Performance! Das alles auch noch so zu filmen, war sicher ein ganz schöner Aufwand ...
Imma be honest, with this banger soundtrack I realized it was a climbing video halfway 😂😂
This could have being a series. So good
Best climbing content on yt!
Love watching this dude send. Kudos to the camera person 👌
I just wanted to watch the first climb thinking that I would watch the whole video later. And I just could not stop watching the whole thing. It was like a very good gangster movie: action packed from minute one, tense but fun, stylish, cool, and what a music... .
came for the climbing and stayed (also) for the music. great video!
Some routes looks amazing!
Very nice video!
The best musical accompaniment I've ever seen in a climbing video.
Incredibly stressful music for Riesenslalom direkt! Hot damn that was cool.
Great video, great climbing! Made it look so casual. I don't even want to know how ridiculously hard an 8b must feel in Frankenjura, you go through the Franken runouts like it was nothing.......
Beeindruckend!! Klasse Musik.
And supposedly one of a hand full places with route density at that grade in drivable range by bicycle. That's why I love to be born around here in the Frankenjura ❤ thanks for the entertainment Alex 🙂
Schönes Video . recht gemütlich alles ;-)

Agreed! Just some of the music needs looking at hahaha music really sets the tone
Would love to know the logistics going on here. Routes having draws being pre-clipped ready for the climb, multiple video angles setup before Alex leaves the ground for each climb, family of the belayer(?) hanging out having a great day outdoors. Tell me everything!
Sehr sehr gutes Video 🎉🎉🎉
Eff me. He climbs those routes like its nothing. Respect
Amazing!
nice music :) ( and Great climbing )
Great music video!
Stark! 💪🏻
This was so sick, all I need is some clear footage of Megos prowling up the wall! thanks. More outdoor sport climbing please! PS are there any routes left for you to repeat in the Franken or have you done everything?

Made that look way too easy. An absolute master of Frankenjura climbing.
Fantastic music, feels a bit of a disney climbing film. 😂
We've got a new sport crag in Scotland and on E bikes it's a 25 minute very pleasant run on on forest tracks, walking is 1.5 hours and normal bike is a knackering 50 minus or so depending on your fitness. You can do it without Ebikes but with them it's a pleasure several times a week and even better it often works in winter which is a rarity in these parts.
what is going on around 2:40 ?!? This might be the only existing cMegos climbing footage WITHOUT tape :D
thanks for FINALLY bringing some awesome tunes to climbing. this is much more fitting than the bumpf bumpf bumpf gym crap
I like the janky and haphazard anchors :)
This gives me a better idea of how strong you are than another 9b+ Also casually hanging 150 carrot draws for a training day ;)

Thankfully the routes in the Frankenjura are not too long, so you can get away with 30 draws or something 😂. A few routes were already equipped because people were trying them

@@alexandermegos8129 just imagine people projecting the route for hours (days?) and then Alex comes by saying: " We are doing a 10 10s challenge, can I have a quick go? It won't be long!"
F...g hell, Alex just pissed on the dreams of every average FJ climber... Insane for every normal human who tried black routes there(X- and above).
thanks for the beta for meteor 👍
Amazing..🙂
There's a similiar here in Helsinki in September, but for boulders. Climb as many as you can in 10 hours, traveling between boulders by bike.
Squamish digs, bravo 👏
alex out here giving youtube what we want.
Great Vid! I think the music made the climbs appear easier than they really were...and maybe that was the intent??? That was a really BIG carrot 🥕at the end, which reminds me, I think I still have one left in the frige! bye bye
Sau cool. werd wohl nächstes Jahr doch mal raus an die Felsen gehen.
epic soundtrack. hollywood take note
Great music!
Love to see/hear some more talking. The routes are much more interesting if you know something about them. Voice over or something
Bestes Video auf deinem Kanal 👌fast wie meine challange 8 8er in 8 Tagen😂
the music adds to the suspense hahaha
Thanks for the chilling music❤, because in many other climbing videos there are these disturbing awkward testosterone musics😅
Nächste Challenge: alle Touren im Schneiderloch in einem Tag ;) btw: Hammer Video, Frankenjura ist das beste Gebiet der Welt!
The first bolt on some of these routes are hardcore
That looked so effortless ... Next up is eight 8A or harder boulders in 8 hours
Toll :)
Hammer Video und gibt es eigentlich gerade eine neue Route für die du trainierst?
how long did it take to set up the draws and camera equipment at each route?

I gotta ask, how much you pedaling that e-bike 🤔😅 phenomenal video/ challenge regardless!
Thanks for climbing without a knee pad! 😉
tis the season to be jolly, ma ma ma, ma ma, ra thon
It's incredible to me how bad Alex's skin must be. Was pleasantly surprised to see no tape at the beginning but clearly that didn't last. Such a major disadvantage for climbing at the highest level. I know personally even a small bit of tape makes things so much harder.
Please post the music playlist, great tracks and a terrific video.
How many one finger pocket are there in the film, who will count? Small Talk - one Subway -one Riesenslalom direkt - two or three? Meteor - one Linie 1 - a lot of... A lot of power!
i love the circus music
The soundtrack… please the soundtrack!!!
Hey Alex! How would you rate these routes in the difficulty order? From easiest to hardest (grade and difficulty is different :)) I remember Ondra saying that "Today small talk would be 8c anywhere in the world", haha! Really fun to watch, only thing missing is the legendary Wolfgang's "Kamasutra 218"... Quite hard one too!
@alexandermegos8129

Kamasutra would have been very far to bike to 😂. It was a challenge finding classic lines not too far from each other. Small Talk was definitely one of the hardest ones, maybe even the hardest out of the 10
geile idee! Habt ihr die Routen am Tag vorher vorbereitet oder haben die Kameramänner die Exen eingehängt?
Marathon klettern 😅 welche Kletterhose trägst du da? Sieht sehr nice aus ❤
What a beast ! Awesome performance It look so effortless when you climb these walls, is gravity the same in Germany ?

No we had a low gravity public holiday. The German government introduced this holiday in 1989, to make sure German climbers stay on top. Unfortunately one day a year was not enough.
Ey die Mukke Alta XD
Does anyone have the soundtrack? It is really good!
