This is cocktalk  clientele most likely, so not surprising. Yet another example of UKC ripping stuff, fucking spies.

Good work on the uploads.

[chummer]

Fucking good effort Lagers. Thanks for going to the effort.

Just watched Rock Athlete for the first time, waited so many years to see that. Awesome. Love watching the old masters at work.

just to remind people - it wasn't me who took the effort to convert them

don't forget Wheeliebob who gave them to me to upload

That Brown / Whillans film is superb.

A few days ago one of my mates phoned me banging on about all these cool old films that had appeared on UKC, so I got excited and had a look (first time i'd been there in weeks). I wasn't massively surprised to find out they were mine, but couldn't help thinking they were being a bit cheeky not giving us the recognition.

Lagers, i'm sure there's an explanation but i'm lazy and on my phone, but why can't i give you karma for helping me with the vids?

You need to have made 50 posts before being eligible to award karma points.

[whealiebob]

OK, cheers. Anybody need to know about rubbish Wirksworth and Matlock sport crags, I could post all day about them!

Yes, but how about some karma?

Now they've acknowledged UKB you need to stop posting on Cocktalk lagers. That's not really John you're conversing with amusingly about apostrphes, it's Mick trying to draw you in......

I was going to make a subtle shift from witty banter about grammar to a long series of poor puns just to see what would happen

Just noticed there's now been an edit of the original news item, correcting that.

probably accompanied by them encouraging the film owners to see UKB as a place where people get together to copy and distribute other people's creative works

I'm off to Rio with my share of the loot

viewer age stats for the Whillans vid

13–17 YEARS         1%
18–24 YEARS         4.4%
25–34 YEARS         10.7%
35–44 YEARS         20%
45–54 YEARS         41.3%
55–64 YEARS         19.7%
65+ YEARS             2.9%

this video has been watched mostly by fat male ex-climbers whilst drinking beer
   
that qualifies climbing as a mainstream sport worthy of widespread media coverage and sponsorship

which in turn means that it should be in the Olympics

Well I need something to occupy myself in these dark post-DFB days!

And I promise to give you karma as soon as i've posted enough drivel, cheers again for getting all the vids up for everyone Largers

[crimp]

Another long shot.

Anybody seen, or preferably got a copy of don whillans on this is your life in 1971?

[andy_e]

Anyone got Jerry doing the "World's Earliest One-Armer" on Big Breakfast?

[nai]

Don't have a copy but that did remind me of this

[crimp]

The outfits burn my eyes

I am fascinated by the fact that someone has "disliked" the film about Don Whillans

according to the data from YouTube it was someone from Austria

Insert UKC style "Nazi Germany" comment here.

Have to agree, any climbing magazine that starts with "Heading Outside, how to climb on rock" shows how pathetic and culturally moribund, and controlled by statist leftist social engineering, our society has become.

  but this quote needs to be seen by a wider audience.  It is a proper foaming at the mouth slightly over the top reaction to a magazine article!

[andy_e]

Was the article "How to climb in a state-approved manner" by Chairman Mao?
