Alex Megos Climbs "Lucid Dreaming" (8C/V15) In Bishop
Alex Megos takes on “Lucid Dreaming” (8C/V15) in Bishop, California—an uncompromising testpiece on the Grandpa Peabody boulder in the Buttermilks. Filmed by Ken Etzel for Red Bull, this short follows Megos through a focused return mission after an earlier attempt cut short, as he dedicates himself to finishing his hardest and longest project to date. In just over four minutes, you get a front-row seat to the real work behind an elite boulder: day-by-day adjustments, skin-splitting granite, and the gritty rituals of staying ready for a single perfect try. It’s a tight, high-intensity watch that captures the obsession, patience, and precision it takes to turn a dream line into a send—and why Bishop remains a proving ground for the best in the world.
