I doubt it. I'll ask him.
> Wolud that to you make his ascent tarnished.
No, but it wouldn't be onsight.
> On outcrop routes like this you can see probable sequences.
Yip .. that's what onsight means, on first sight, viewing the route whilst there is fine and trying to work out doing them is par for the course; but watching a video of someone doing the route is similar to watching someone doing the route at the crag and you couldn't claim an onsight. It's a flash. By watching someone you get beta on how to do the moves, where the rests are, that it is possible, and more, psychologically, if the person you are watching doesn't climb as hard as you.
> Even if he had saw the video, its still on-sight!
Nope.
