Pete Whittaker of the Wide Boyz takes on one of Norway's most iconic and demanding objectives — the North Wall of Blåmann — with a bold rope solo attempt to complete it in under 24 hours. Set against the dramatic Arctic landscape, this film follows Pete as he tackles the sustained crack climbing that defines Blåmann's north face, relying entirely on himself for both movement and safety as he races against the clock. What makes this film compelling is the rare combination of technical difficulty and raw self-sufficiency at its core. Rope soloing a wall of this scale demands not just climbing ability but relentless mental focus and flawless systems management, and watching Pete navigate that challenge alone in Norway's unforgiving terrain makes for gripping viewing. Whether or not the route has seen prior solos, this ascent stands as a serious personal statement — one that crack climbing fans and adventure seekers alike won't want to miss.

I am going off reports online and local knowledge. Both (or a combination) of these things might have been done before. Be fun to hear if others have any info.
