Brad Johnson takes on one of the most iconic climbs in the world — the Regular Northwest Face of Half Dome in Yosemite Valley. Over four days living on the wall, this film documents the full physical and mental journey up one of America's most celebrated big wall routes, thousands of feet above the valley floor.
What makes this film compelling is its raw, ground-level perspective on what it truly means to commit to a big wall — hauling gear, sleeping exposed on granite, and pushing through exhaustion to reach the summit. With nearly four million views, this climb clearly resonates with both seasoned climbers and adventurous newcomers alike.
Thank God Ledge is one of the most iconic and nerve-wracking features in all of climbing — a narrow, exposed shelf high on the sheer granite face of Half Dome in Yosemite Valley. This video captures Pitch 20 of the Regular Northwest Face route, where climbers must traverse a ledge so exposed that the name says it all, with thousands of feet of air below and nothing but commitment ahead.
With over seven million views, this short clip has captivated audiences far beyond the climbing world, offering a visceral window into the vertigo-inducing reality of big wall climbing in Yosemite. Whether you walk it upright or press your back to the wall and shuffle sideways, Thank God Ledge is a rite of passage — and watching it is enough to make your palms sweat from the comfort of your couch.
Friends Of The Grit follows Belgian climber Siebe Vanhee as he heads to the Peak District, the heartland of British gritstone and its famously uncompromising trad ethic. Part travelogue, part climbing story, it’s a firsthand look at how local history and unwritten rules shape the way people climb.
What makes this film so watchable is the clash and connection between styles: a visiting powerhouse stepping onto a very different playground where commitment, composure, and good judgement matter as much as strength. Expect sharp edges, bold leads, and plenty of personality as Siebe and his new crew chase the best grit the UK has to offer.
Brooke Raboutou takes center stage in this slick edit from Mellow, documenting her winter assault on some of Ticino's most coveted boulder problems. From the sculpted granite of Magic Wood to the storied lines that have tested the world's best, Brooke moves through a gauntlet of V12-V15 classics with a mix of raw power and precise technical footwork that makes even the desperate moves look controlled.
What makes this edit worth your time is watching a young climber at the peak of her abilities go head-to-head with true test pieces — the kind of problems that demand everything. The footage is crisp, the climbing is fierce, and the Swiss landscape provides a stunning backdrop. Whether you're here for the beta or just the stoke, Brooke's fight on these lines delivers both in full.
Switzerland is a multipitch paradise, and Swissway to Heaven is a love letter to its legendary walls through the eyes of hometown climber Cédric Lachat. With a sharp sense of humor and boundless stoke, he guides you across five iconic arenas—the Eiger, Gastlosen, Wendenstöcke, Lauterbrunnen, and the Rätikon—joined by a stacked crew including Nina Caprez.
What makes this film hit is the blend of jaw-dropping alpine scenery with hard climbing (8a and beyond) and real perspective from first ascensionists. It’s part adventure, part history lesson, tracing how routes and equipment evolved from traditional mountain missions to modern sport-minded big-wall climbing—equal parts inspiring, informative, and pure mountain escapism.
What does free solo actually look and feel like from the climber’s perspective? This film follows Alex Honnold as he uses virtual reality to bring viewers onto the wall with him, building the immersive documentary experience “Alex Honnold: The Soloist VR” after years of filming across Europe and North America.
If you’ve ever wondered how focus, exposure, and movement combine when there’s no rope in sight, this is a front-row seat. Between the scale of the walls and the VR-first approach, it turns a familiar headline-worthy discipline into something more personal and immediate—an intense, close-in look at commitment on stone.
Ryuichi Murai steps up to the cutting edge with "Floatin," his first ascent of The Launchpad Project in Mizugaki, Japan. It’s a short boulder, but every move is razor-specific—one of those problems where the difficulty is concentrated into a handful of brutally precise moments.
What makes this film pop is the contrast: minimal length, maximum intensity. You get to watch a top-tier boulderer puzzle out movement that looks almost impossible, then bring it together with calm execution and commitment—an inspiring snapshot of how modern hard boulders are built, and how they’re solved.

Alex Megos delivers raw, uncut send footage of his first repeat of King Capella in Siurana, Spain — one of the hardest sport routes in the world. The line was originally established by Will Bosi earlier in 2021 and represents the bleeding edge of what is possible on rock, rated a staggering 9b.
What makes this film special is its unfiltered honesty: no cuts, no music, just pure climbing at the limit. After a brief reconnaissance in March and nine hard-fought days on the route in November, Megos executes one of the most technically demanding sequences in sport climbing history. This is essential viewing for anyone who wants to witness elite climbing in its most authentic form.
