'The Brawl' is The Font's largest annual event attracting competitors from all over the UK - even some from Europe. This year, two Team GB Olympians took the win in Wandsworth.

The 2024 Tenzing Brawl on the Wall at The Font Wandsworth in south-west London delivered all the drama and world-class climbing fans could hope for. With sold-out finals, the latest holds, and even light-up, no-texture holds, the event was a spectacle from start to finish.

Basically hijacking a venerable name to sell caffeinated/taurinated (?) sugar-saturated pee?

Yes. It won't be long before the road sides are littered with a new design of energy drink can.

But without actually that much sugar in, so they don't even serve the basic function of an energy drink. It's a bunch of 'polish' level supplements below the effective doses tested in the literature, plus caffeine. So yes, shit. Eat a banana and have a coffee instead.

You're such a cynic, Robert. From the Tenzing website:

'Thirsty for adventure? Follow the natural energy movement on our social channels and experience the power of nature '.

Now go and crush that sitter you've been questing for.

Oh dear......Who makes this stuff up? More worryingly, who takes it seriously?

As for the first question, it's usually marketers after snorting some 'artisanal natural supplements' straight out of Colombia.

Unfortunately, it doesn't have to be taken seriously, subliminal conditioning will do nicely ☹️

I listened to a podcast recently which said there is little to no evidence of the effect of subliminal advertising.

And you believed it - unless of course you are being ironic. Self fulfilling prophecy and conspiracy theory rolled into one 😁 

Watch some Darren Brown and then tell me there's little to no evidence.

Surely if it worked he'd have had you spelling his name right at least?
