In this week's Friday Night Vid Swiss climber Dani Arnold solos the 8 pitch Kandersteg Ice test-piece of Crack Baby (WI6) in just 27 minutes and 13 seconds...! Gulp!

Dani is the chap who speed soloed the Eiger in record time and did a couple of routes in Scotland... He's pretty handy!

Video edited by an ADHD monkey with an attention span of 10ms. A shame since it looked like there was some good footage.

Sort of, but I was editing some video of myself ice climbing recently and came to the conclusion that a) watching ice climbing normally is pretty boring; but b) watching ice climbing at double normal speed and with some silly music as a backing track is inherently funny. :) Hence I like the long shot of him at the end doing the entire route sped up super fast!

Yeah, but us punters take 27 minutes to climb a 20m route. This guy did 350m in that time, which still makes it nearly 10x faster than your double normal speed vid ;) Surely there's got to be more than 2 second snips worth watching

Have to agree. Terrible editing ruins what would be a fascinating film. Worthless.

Tru' dat cuz. Actually it was about 5 minutes to climb 20 mtrs. https://vimeo.com/89542002 So if Crack Baby was WI2/3 instead of 6, I could have maybe done the first pitch by the time Dani was topping out of pitch 8. :)
