Dan Osman vs Huber brothers: climbing beyond the limit!

A great and spectacular video by the crazy Dan Osman has always been the top climbing video in youtube. In it, Dan climbs 100m without rope in less than 4min30sec minutes. Spectacular but it is just a 5.7!! In european rate it is a 4+, what means that even me can climb that wall without rope! One thing it's true, it will take me an hour. Here there's the video:


On the other hand, there's the last Huber's brother record in el capitan (yosemite). They set the world speed climbing record of the Nose in 2h45min45sec. The Nose is a multi-pitch route with a some difficult pitches, the hardest, a 13.a (8a in european). As they explained the easy pitches were climbed without rope and only the hardest ones were belayed. The goal, be the fastest! Am Limit is the film which shows the best moments of this experience. Here's the trailer:

Besides the fact that Dan Osman was incredible, by its difficulty and velocity, Huber's exploit is the best that we can find in the net. Enjoy the videos!
