Who is a better climber, Clint Eastwood playing Layton Kor, or Sylvester Stalone playing Tony Yaniro?

Perhaps a better question is Stalone or Chuck Norris. Chuck's beard alone could climb El Cap in 2hrs

Okay, the very best climber of all time is Spencer Tracy in "The Mountain," 1956,I believe.

Chuck Norris hogged a phone booth in Palos Verdes in 1973, and wouldn't let me make a call. I have been pissed at him ever since.

Hey Lynne and redirt, another chick vote for Clint. Lynne, was it Brigette Neilsen that Stallone dumped? Also, didn't Clint dump Sandra Lock, changing the locks on her? I liked him as Carmel's mayor though.

I think so Sully. Never forget the moment. It's like yesterday. Seated between daughter Amy and Dan. Movie starts.....Stalone hanging onto gf's arm, then it slips to hand then fingers....then HE FRICKING DROPS HER. I screamed at the top of my lungs.....seriously, cause Dude's don't DROP their gf's.
Amy gave me a Solid hit with her elbow into my gut that knocked all the wind out of me along with a glare that said....If you make another sound you are So out of here. Dan sighed, he knew movies for lynnie were a bad idea in the first place. :DD Lucille, yeah, kinda fits.

Didn't Stallone supposedly hook up with Nancy Prichard when she was writing up an article for Rock and Ice about that Shiteous flick? For that my vote goes to Stallone, although if he didn’t close the deal I’d have to vote for Clint.

Just as a bit of clarification, in Cliffhanger, Stallone did not drop his girlfriend. He dropped the GF of his climbing partner (OK, I can see that). Near the end of the movie, he hung onto his GF(Jeanine Turner) and saved her life. Big difference.

We all know Clint is the ultimate tough guy. Check out "Gran Torino", anybody that can play a badass at his age and pull it off deserves respect.
I have heard that Tom Cruise is a climber in real life. Can anyone vouch for this?

He bought a climbing wall for his place.
Ron said he did surprisingly well, and did most of his own scenes.

Eiger Sanction alone would be enough to put Clint on top.
Movie tagline: HIS LIFELINE - held by the assassin he hunted.
"John, do what I tell you. Cut the rope above you!"
For that, and the many, many more great movies (produced, directed and starred in) than Sly, Clint gets my vote.

I thought that Guardino played his CO.
Dirty Harry's partners had problems surviving.

Eastwood....Stallone's a poser.
What was that quote by Clint lately...
"Maybe when people started asking about the meaning of life," Eastwood, 78, growls in the January issue of Esquire.
The actor/director recalls the deeper questions were rarely posed during his Depression-era California childhood - and says that wasn't a bad thing.
"People barely got by," Eastwood recounts. "People were tougher then."
Eastwood, whose on-screen tough guys included Dirty Harry and gun-for-hire William Munny in "Unforgiven," was a fighter at a young age.
"I was a shy kid," he says. "But a lot of my childhood was spent punching the bullies out."
That mentality is gone, he laments.
"Everyone's become used to saying, 'Well, how do we handle it psychologically?'" Eastwood says. "In those days, you punched the bully back and duked it out."
When not overanalyzing things, 21st century America spends too much time worrying about ... everything.
"You can't stop everything from happening," Eastwood says. "But we've gotten to a point where we're certainly trying. If a car doesn't have 400 air bags in it, then it's no good."
The somewhat-grumpy-old man doesn't quite grasp the concept of body piercing. "What kind of masochism is that?" he wonders. "Is it to show you can take it?"
The "Dirty Harry" star has good things to say about life as a senior citizen: He likes kids a lot more, has less self-doubt and doesn't sweat the small stuff.
"What can they do to you after you get in your 70s?" he asks.
f*#king pussies!
