the clip that was on utube was about 3/4 of the route, but he's now sent the whole route
surely the world's hardest climb?

Ran into him at Heuco '97 or '98. Very down to earth, very personable. All around a good human being IMHO.
Congrats, keep it up.

I just got done climbing the ladder to the ceiling to do some patching. Free soloed that thing. Soloed it both ways. UP and DOWN! Just like that german dude did. See I "climb"!

Not sure if you can call what I do climbing....
But yeah, I have been known to pull off a few stupid human tricks on occasion.

The link is not working for me.
Is Clark Mountain the area Randy Leavitt found and introduced Sharma to near the CA/NV Border?
Leavitt and Sharma showed pics at an Allied Climbers of San Diego fund raiser couple months ago....
SUPER EDIT: "It was really great". Lynne, that is sheee. The stuff Sharma did at Clark was fricking incredible... IMHO and I've met and seen Many great climbers send in my life, Sharma is a SUPER talented human and a pretty humble, cool Dude.
No one could yawn if you were with Sharma when he's doing the send...really ! Dude is truly incredible...!!!!
