Yes its awsome. The old man is the camraman's dad. All of "noseclimber"'s vids are badass.
edit: I like the part where he almost falls but doesn't.

Now I understand why the camera moved as it did with Johann almost pitched off. He had the rope under his leg (I believe, its hard to tell right there) and his own son was filming what would have been a deathly fall.
Phew!

Wow, still got the edge eh? Made me nervous ( and I think the videographer as well!) when he lost his balance and caught himself! Runouts and all...Glory to God!

Good video, but the soundtrack sucks. Listening to it made me cry.

Bravo. Our spirits are eternal. Only the body (its temporary home) wears out with time. But, the body can still do amazing things if you allow it to, despite age.
Thanks for the share, DMT.

Edit: I actually kind of dug the soundtrack. But I'm a french fry and Euro lover at heart!

Steep and runout 5.8ish, with slung features for pro, at 77 - good stuff. But best of all was his tie-in method. I'm going with this from now on:
