where the most expensive photo ever sold was taken

If you believe Lik, which most don't. Gursky's Rhein II is generally accepted to hold that title. If you don't think much of that, do some reading on Richard Prince's Spiritual America which is #2.

I'm sure it's Antelope - I was there last summer. Presumably they already had the footage.

As to the whole video, they clearly had some great footage ... before they began fucking around with it.

Its really hard to make a shit video of hard climbing in Rocklands, actually impressive that they managed to.

Interesting, will have a look at Spiritual America (edit - but not at work though!!). Rhein II never worked for me.

I'm not suggesting you'll like it, but if you want to get an inkling of what constitutes a valuable 'photograph' to the art world it's a good place to start.

Just discovered this. Pure class. Klem down climbs Jacadi and then does La Puce at around 7 minutes.

Good encouragement at the beginning too  ;)

Have you not seen that before Mase, how did this pass you by? Classic. I presume that jacadi linkup is impossible now after the starting hold on jacadi broke, but still that linkup must have been absolutely savage back in the day. It's on my list under "most ridiculous things I have seen in climbing videos" list.

It's from the "Climbing At The Limit Of Human Performance" dvd, which also has that amazing emotional landscapes bit, amongst other Maltatal stuff from back in the day:

I have seen the Emotional Landscapes one before just never the Bleau one. Klem = legend!

Along with Fred Rouhling, I find Klem the most endlessly re-watchable climber there is, though for opposite reasons.  With Fred, it's his air of looseness and playfulness whilst pulling on hideous holds; with Klem, it's the sense of incredible emotional / intellectual intensity.  I always get these odd flashbacks to Klaus Kinski films whenever I watch Klem.  Like I could imagine him going insane pursuing an impossible project in a rainforest, training jaguars to haul a huge boulder out of the swamp onto the top of a hill, trying to stop monkeys from french-starting.  A Klem bouldering project film made by Werner Herzog would be the dream.

I always feel super motivated when i've seen a Klem video. You can really sense the joy he experiences from climbing

Bouldering video I created last year, sure you'll agree belongs here. Showcases my versatility as a producer.

Some fantastic problems here.
Well done Oliver, really enjoyed it.

Loved the Klem in Font vid.
Likin the support he gives.
I don't know any German but wouldn't be out of place in Downfall the movie.
Sounds miles better than "tight" and "breathe".
What makes me laugh most, on first prob, guy trumps as he puts in maximum effort.
Often the way to get the extra push that is sometimes needed!

Has anybody got Font Emotions on a hard drive somewhere? It was on YouTube but it's broken. My first and favourite Font movie - would love to watch it again.

Come on basics people if a video is down on YouTube just change the URL so it says Pak instead of tube
