New German 8C?

Is this the hardest boulder problem in Germany? Most likely, considering how much effort the Antonator put into this line, how well he knows every little detail of Atlantiswand (the cliff with the world's highest concentration of hard sport climbing and bouldering!) and how true Toni has been to accurate judgement in the past.

Regardless how future climbers will rate "Assasin, Monkey and Man", it is a new school line with nightmarishly intricate and complicated moves along this prow on typical "no friction" Kochel limestone.

If Lamprecht was on here I'd punter him for that video hat problem name.

No way.   The hardest problem in Germany is finding rock one might want to climb . . .

He looks a bit like some kind of mad Germanic Dixon in that photo. The problem looks a bit shit though really. Forgot, I've actually been to Kochel with Toni (and fatboy of this parish)

Nice one Uncle Toni!
I'll take 8c+ for anything.
