Am Limit
I am a great fan of Pepe Danquart, having seen yesterday the last movie of his trilogy “Heimspiel” (2000), “Höllentour” (2004). “Am Limit” is a documentation of a speed climbing record of less than 2’48” for the nose at El Capitan in Yosemite Valley by the Thomas and Alexander Huber. It is an impressive big wall – I have a picture of Yosemite in my office – and these are two incredible guys. Jumaring / Jümarn rope ascending looks like a vertical sprint.
The movie trailer can be found at Youtube and an interview is at bergsteiger.at.
