@@NickOvchinnikov Even if there’s “a bit of an ego” that’s still being super humble. He’s still downplaying himself. For example, a legendary guitarist isn’t gonna go around saying “I suck at guitar, I’m the worst” to seem humble. Because obviously that’s not true. They’ll downplay it, casually talk about how great others are and how much better the others may be in certain areas. There’s a difference between being egotistical vs having confidence in your skill set. You should have confidence if you’re amazing at something, doesn’t make you not humble. Being egotistical is acting as though you’re better at everything and closing your mind off to new things you may learn from. Which obviously he doesn’t do.

Man, this has to be my favourite episode ever. They have such good chemistry. You can sense that Magnus is a bit on his guard around a big star like Eddie, but they seem to have hit it right off. And Eddie is such a good sport to Magnus' encouragement and very subtle teasing. Despite being simply intimidating physically, he's likeable to the degree of being cute. In a bigmouthed, bighearted, french bulldog kind of way. Remember, a bulldog that still could involuntarily crush you without noticing it. I was actually scared Magnus might get pancaked by Eddie simply rolling over at 17:35, forgetting he has invited a giant to the gym. Also I'm surprised that Eddie knows virtually nothing about climbing and has never tried it before. And even more surprised how well he does given that and his weight. You can tell he is absolutely up for any challenge. What a great match. So, now for the rest of the video.

Great job man. There's no better feeling than progressing physically. And climbing is a sport where you will be able to clearly see how you progress. Today you might look at a difficult climb and be like "that impossible for me right now" and a few weeks or months later you will be like. "with some effort, I can do that right now". And some months after that you'll be like "oh this is easy". I've climbed with a friend for 3-4 years now (I'm 25 he's 26) And we're slowly creeping into V6-7 territory. V7s are still near impossible. And V6 is hard for us. But 3 years ago we were both V2 climbers at best. Now we chuckle at V4 climbs. Which would have been impossible or incredibly hard a few years ago. Point is, have fun, and get strong. There are not many things better in life than getting strong and healthy.

Good for you! Don't worry about what other people are climbing. Just focus on you and your progress. Keep it up! 💪

This was the wholesome 28mins I needed this evening, thanks.

Somehow have seen loads of videos with Eddie in them. Not into body building, strong man or anything like that but I love the respect and reverence he gives other disciplines. Proper sportsman

Eddie is actually a really good climber considering it was his first time, jeez!!! Intuitive movement and kept his arms straight 👌🏼

you’re taught to keep your arms straight in strongman too! and it has a similar aspect of problem solving

I imagine 150+ kilos (I heard 170 but I don't know if that was before he retired or if it's now) would make your arms naturally straighten lol

i wouldn’t say he’s a good climber for a beginner he is just one of the few people in the world that can brute strength his way up a route that should be beyond his skill level for someone of that weight. bros muscles have muscles

I couldn't imagine walking into a climbing centre and seeing these two legends. I would just follow them around watching like a stray dog or something.

Bro, this guy is no joke, for a first timer being that heavy, he's doing amazing

thats so incredibly impressive seeing such a big man on the wall like that, honestly didnt think you would do this good

170 kg... it's absolutely nuts to be hoisting himself up beyond ground level but here he is doing better than most beginner climbers! Really awesome

wow....honestly? Mad respect to that man. He climbed VERY well. And for a man of his size he climbed excellent! I've been at it a decade and we've all seen the newbies... this man moves incredibly well. Loved this!

Most of the strongmen competitors I know are pretty athletic overall. Good on Eddie for giving this a go, it’s tough even for people half his weight

Great episode. Really nice vibe. Eddie impressed me.

Eddie was so entertaining and it's easy to warm to him. his strength when he lost his feet and was hanging was exceptional, unsurprisingly.

He calls himself a beast and he's not exaggerating. His 500kg deadlift is something out of the chart, maybe out of this world 💪🏆💪

I like how Magnus hearted your comment and the porn bot who copy/pasted your comment 😂

Eddie is so likeable. That was a very fun one, Magnus. You're pulling off all the great collabs!

It's really fun to watch you elite guys doing this, and so funny guys, great video!

This is the unexpected collab I really wanted to happen ... without knowing it myself! And I'm impressed with the climbing abilities of Eddy!

I sub to both great to see them together

This is probably the funniest co-climbing video you've made. Impossible that 170kg can do that but Eddie never gives up. The way he climbs with his body is the same I am climbing with your bodyweight. So amazing to see what he can do and it is always amazing to see how you fly up the walls without almost any effort.

I love how some explicitives are beeped out but some are left in all their glory.

After my life started to go downhill I moved in with my dad and he showed me “The Wondrous World of Rock Climbing” it was a real escape and taught me that failure is ok as long as you keep getting up. I found out after a while that he also watched Magnus and it was a real way for he and I to bond since he hadn’t been in my life until then. I ended up leaving because he fell back into his egotistical ways. But I miss climbing with him and climbing in general. I can’t do it anymore because I don’t have the money or shoes or chalk. And memberships ain’t cheap. I just thought I’d let ya know how much you impacted my life, Magnus. I wish I could keep climbing but watching these helps.

The way he's able to brute force those walls and almost skip the tecnique is really impressive

I love how dedicated Eddie is with everything he tries. There’s many times where I thought he’d just drop but he kept going.

This is honestly such a great display of just how differently built two top athletes can be, simply because of their respective focus.

Great video. Totally relate to the pumped feeling after doing climbing for the first time. Struggled to open my car door when I was done 😂

This is very inspiring. As a heavier climber, it is encouraging to see someone that’s not tall and/or skinny topping these climbs

This is an awesome collaboration I definitely wasn’t expecting, love both these guys!

That a abit duuude climbing! Amazing work! Bravo🎉

i love these intersections of different fitness focuses

Big props to Eddie. Really gave it his all and was honestly so impressive for a first climb

I enjoyed this, the strongest man wasnt cocky, he was eager to learn and was impressed with Magnus. Just goes to show how different sports bodies are!

Eddie is so coachable. You can see him implementing so much of what Magnus says. It’s impressive

Huge video!! Loved every moment.

Awesome seeing you with people from other disciplines like this Magnus. He did great! It was cool to see such a strong man get pumped. Keep up the great climbing vids! 🙌
