In reply to Escher: On the whole I thought it wasn't a bad bit of reporting the the tabloid press(especially The Sun). Though I wish they had been less scathing about the first ascent
"It was first climbed in the 70s but that was by people with plenty of safety systems in place."
No they didn't, unlike this albeit brilliant acheivement, it was climbed on sight, as was the first route up the face , The Original Route, what were these 'plenty of safety systems in place'?
