Superb and the climbing is good too! 😉

Can't believe how easy Mari makes Giggling look! Bog Crack is always a tough one as well. If anyone has already completed the "dirty dozen" I've added a "dirty dozen more" to the UKC ticklist page for 12 more full body struggles ✋✊💪

In reply to Graham Booth: I was thinking the same. Pete really does have the luck of the devil. Not only because she’s rather lovely, but more because he’s found a missus who is just as enthusiastic as he is at throwing herself at things which are obviously going to  hurt!

In reply to TobyA: yeah but thats part of the psyche... i mean hell I quite often sing really badly when I’m nervous...

Loved the video, too, especially the shit jokes.

As for Giggling, for me, half chimneying something that I would have trouble getting my shoulder in counts as cheating!

I get the feeling that Ms Salvesen doesn't really do "nervous". 😄

Haha, that's great. Love the belayer (you?) offering the sage advice of "Just stay in" and "Just don't let go" before a couple of the falls.

I'm sure there's a video of Bransby and Caff falling off it in some film.

In the sprit of the video we made up a few of our own, here are the best ones:

Who is the deepest climber?

Which climber is a decapitated Cetacea? (Very appropriate given the location of the video)

Which climber is worth two in the bush, two shillings to be exact?

If you are talking dirty and hard climbs at Brimham I reccomend Mad Hatter (E1 5b) as the horriblest climb I have ever done.

I found it unwatchable - i didn't get beyond the first route.  The camera is constantly bouncing around. If the job's worth doing, it's worth doing well.

Disappointed...
