From dirt grows the flowers, ~8C, by Manuel BrunnVideo

© Manuel Brunn

Manuel Brunn has repeated Dave Graham's From dirt grows the flowers, ~8C, at Chironico, Switzerland.

Manuel, who is a Frankenjura local, is by no means a stranger to hard climbing, having repeated things like Montecore, ~8C, and The Elder Statesman, 9a, both in Frankenjura.

Looks like things are looking up for the German:

After so many almost finished projects last year finally 2015 has arrived. 2014 is over! From Dirt Grows the Flowers 8C - Yeah!

Manuel topped out to the right, i.e Dave's original way. There is also a left hand top out variation which is probably slightly easier.

Awesome climb. That guy made that look so easy! Big respect to DG, not only does he open some amazing looking climbs, but he gives them the best names too :) Also, the 'Dave Graham the climbing wizard' video on Vimeo is not to be missed
