Climbing, Adrenaline, Adventures, and Mountaineering! I make videos of Colorado's coolest peaks, as well as other epic adventures throughout Colorado and beyond!
The age of social media has caused people to take chances beyond their ability, hence death and injury. Before SM we earned our chops. Start with the easy ones, gain confidence and skills and know when not to exceed your ability. I took the crash course and climbed maybe half and quickly advanced to technical climb like 5:10. I even hired a pro climber who taught me rope craft and all about hardware choices. I always climbed within my ability, and only fell once. Because I knew how to set pro I’m still here to talk about it. Interesting fact. Ice climbing is inherently easier than rock because you can choose your route. On rock the rock chooses for you.
I watched this a while back, and today was climbing up a steep trail out in the mountains in New Hampshire, and found myself singing "auf das Matterhorn" to myself!
Why does Max upload at 3x speed? We know the game, Max. No human climbs this faster than 1:17 without editing. Just fess up. (And Adam says he beat your time on Country Club. So come climbing soon!)
Yall got some cahoonas I’ll give yall that! We don’t have it this bad at my local river and it still knocked me out and I had to swim to the bank luckily im a good swimmer but I’ve heard of people dying in the same spot and again it’s no where near this bad!!
This may seem safer than fuels as its less toxic. The biggest risk may seem like backfiring but one of the biggest risks is actually lipid Pneumonia from swallowing or breathing in the oil/ fuel. I did a fire eating course and you use the fuel for all the stunts. I looked into why cornstarch isn't used more and apparently it can still be bad for the lungs so you still have to be so careful not the breathe in.
Possibly the most interesting but worst shot video of the eclipse. My head hurts from all the jerky camera movement and whip pans. Get yourself a tripod, position it on a subject and leave it there. Count to 10. Rinse and repeat. You'll be a lot happier with the results...promise! The good news is you'll have plenty of time to practice before the next one.
The official rules are stated in NFPA 1127 and FAA Part 101. The governing bodies of amateur rocketry (who sponsor rocket launches) are NAR and Tripoli. Basically- vendors will not sell motors and clubs won’t let people fly at their launches without proof of a cert.
@@AdventuresToTheMax Great! Thanks! I'm coming from a curiosity/learning perspective, not a rebellious/I'm going to find a way around this. I will soon join high power rocketry & am teaching myself a few things. The FAA, huh? I'm an A&P mechanic & commercial pilot & had no idea the FAA had regs pertaining to rocketry, except when waivers and clearances are needed for launches & related oversight.
Cold snowy day at work. Remembered your Capitol Peak vid and wondered what you were up to years later. No surprise you're still killing it and pushing. Bless up my guy.
The best concise explanation I have come across during 27 years in Boulder. Very clear diagrams, clear timelines, clear geology, Fault descriptions. Just Wow! Thank you.
I was fully prepared for yet another painful GoPro experience, but much to my surprise, I finally got to watch GoPro footage by a highly capable sender. Thanks for posting this!
I'm just starting planning for my Level 3 certification and your video was very valuable education for me I've chosen the same switches but had planned to mount them on the sled and access them thru holes in the switch ring Your installation is much better and very cool Can you provide me with some details on how you did it
You can be in the best shape, have the best balance, experience, confidence, etc. Regardless, while the odds are incalculable, trapsing across that path that way, the odds of death are high, as demonstrated by the comments at 14:54. May have been one of the people seen at 14:36. That being said, do I wish i were as skilled, adventurous, brave, etc. as those two? You bet.
Do you have any tips/resources that you can share on the design of the fins? I'm currently designing them for a large student rocket out of a carbon fiber sandwich panel. Aeroelastic flutter is the most challenging since the simplified flutter criterion from NACA is questionable for higher supersonic flight and non-isotropic materials. Aerodynamic heating is also a challenge.
Oh wow this is so awesome! I started with Estes too in 1990 when I was 7! Just got back into rocketry and earned my L1 finally and going for the L2 next spring! Its so cool you got to keep with the hobby, I can only think how far I would ne now. Very cool story!
I learned this trick when I was young but I was taught to use a fat straw and push that down into the cornstarch then blow it out over a flame. Your way is more dramatic though, but the mouth feel puts me off from trying it. Great job though! Thanks!
Haha this was me and buddy this year, during May, at our local river. We live in Washington State and we floated the Wenatchee River! There are rafting tours on that River and we floated by them and talked with them for a while. They were so chill, the tourists they had thought me and my buddy were "crazy." Silly, Karens! :)
