Will Bosi establishes Realm of Tor'ment, 9A
In proposing a grade of 9A, Will becomes the first person to have climbed five boulders at the grade.
This week's Friday Night Video is a holy quest. We join Sir William Bosi in his crusade to tick Excalibur, Stefano Ghisolfi's 9b+ near Arco, Italy.
In making the ascent, Will joined a select group of only nine people to have climbed a route at 9b+ or harder, as well as one of only three people - the others being Sean Bailey and Jakob Schubert - to have climbed a route at 9b+ or harder as well as a boulder at 9A. He is also the first British climber to have climbed the grade.

Interesting to see Will taking on Excalibur, looks like a serious piece of climbing. The route itself and the effort involved are impressive. Not sure the narration added much for me, but the footage of the climbing was solid. Always good to get a glimpse into these big projects.
It's awful isn't it.
Controversially i really enjoyed the daft booce over quite nice to have a climbing film that didn’t take itself too seriously.
It's really awful. It ruined what could have been a decent video.
Nice to see a video with a bit of soul and character, I liked it.
