Internationally renowned ice climber Will Gadd takes ice climbing to the next level by scaling the frozen sections of the world’s largest flowing waterfall, Niagara Falls. Gadd, a world-renowned ice climber and paraglider from Alberta, Canada, has traveled to the ends of the earth to find the world’s most challenging climbs, but Niagara Falls, one of his home country‘s most iconic landmarks, is a lifelong mission that he previously thought impossible...until now.

@masmouta1994 9 лет назад

Canadian Will Gadd - Ice Climbing on Frozen Niagara Falls. You got to watch this. It took him over an hour to accomplish this feat. The first person ever to do this. #FrozenNiagaraFalls #NiagaraFalls #IceClimbing

@YokhanSebastian 9 лет назад

It took him only 8 months to get the permit to do this stunt. And this guy is an expert ice climber :)

@YokhanSebastian 9 лет назад

Annette M Salmon Perhaps it's because Walenska need to get 2 permits instead of 1 ;)

@BayviewFinch 9 лет назад

*with Sarah Hueniken.

@yokhansebastian7813 9 лет назад

BayviewFinch Thanks

@yokhansebastian7813 9 лет назад

Annette M Salmon Apparently, Hueniken, 34, who spent hours huddled in an ice cave part way up the route to avoid being hit with chunks of ice, did the climb too, behind Gadd.

@florindobre7265 9 лет назад

Where can I find the full song?

@daisyduke5483 9 лет назад

Did he get arrested after that or did he get permission? I'm just wondering because when people go down the falls - they get arrested. Very nice job dude. It looked really fun.

@waterskippers 9 лет назад

Nice. I'm surprised he wasn't wearing more protection on his face, though.

@RyanAttwater 9 лет назад

I'm surprised someone hasn't climbed the falls before. Nice work Will!

@pewdiepiesucksdick6137 9 лет назад

Man this is sexist! Am I right women? We better sue him for offending us!

@BayviewFinch 9 лет назад

Actually, this IS sexist, because it's only highlighting him, not Sarah Hueniken.

@pewdiepiesucksdick6137 9 лет назад

@swsmtnguide 9 лет назад

Yo, Red Bull. Where is the love for Sarah Hueniken? You know, the woman who climbed it with Will Gadd? One of the only women in the world who is crushing all the boys and still isn't getting the love?

@YajaJamaica 9 лет назад

LAWS Exodus 20… And now as we journey through Exodus we get to the laws. Once a lawyer dared to categorically state that he could have done a better job of writing the 10 commandments. Poor thing. The Old Testament or laws showed that we are helplessly tide up in sins. The New Testament under Jesus Christ frees us from these bonds and now we obey in love. Love Jesus.

@69ssrszl1 9 лет назад

What kind of IDIOT would risk His life doing something so FOOLISH!!! If He fell to His death they would call it a TRAGEDY "HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN"!!!!

@francinefontana1357 9 лет назад

and my son won't throw out the garbage 'cause there's ice and it's slippery......Now I'm gonna make him watch this .

@stevenicolacopoulos6946 9 лет назад

No, no, no, you're going about this all WRONG dude! See, people who are feeling THAT suicidal usually just attempt to fall OVER the Niagara falls...not try to climb UP them...Get it right!

@seemlyme 9 лет назад

Too dangerous act. Anyway be careful out there. All it takes one mistake. But be positive and live your life to the fullest.

@marcoammirati3482 9 лет назад

Amazing video.Anyone knows who performed this song?Only have title but no author,looks something like m83 style but found nothing.

@marcosmehlhoff181 9 лет назад

That Guy is CRAZY !! Why in the hell would he try to climb falling Water and ICE for? What if he fell between those sharp Jagged ICE and wasn't found fast enough or if he was ripped in to shreds.. LORD Please watch over that knucklehead and help keep him safe always.. That would simply be terrible, I'm so glad he made it.. 🌎 Thank Goodness we don't have that much falling water here in the Republic of Texas 🐎 !!

How do I live in Niagara Falls Canada and had no clue this went on?!

@pengpang1640 9 лет назад

It's a terrific achievement, but it would be more properly termed ice climbing next to the falls, i.e. it looks like he climbed the cliff below Goat Island.

@SamsOfficialChannel 9 лет назад

I wonder if maybe the reason this video only shows Will Gadd, is because he is actually sponsored by Red Bull, and she isn't...

@ETGvloggity 9 лет назад

Coulda sworn that was M83.

@brubbys 9 лет назад

@danieltranchida4009 9 лет назад

It is a beautiful site, not at the top of my list. Reading the comments on here ridiculous always some negative. My mother was right back in 70s she bi***** and shut the door on womens rights. Stay home and have babies her comments! Just saying be seen an not heard. Mine

@paulkasputis5978 9 лет назад

In the east a lot of new ice climbs will be accomplished this winter. Will get yourself to Lake Willaby in Vermont.

@jeffstephan3146 5 лет назад

I'm not impressed. I climbed Niagara Falls when I was 18 with my bare hands and no ropes or tools.

@gt40f 9 лет назад

BFD. It looks like a WI5 to me Gadd is just taking a harder line to try and make it a 6. The only reason it hasn't been climbed is because it rarely forms and it's not legal, at least not until recently. Not that Gadd isn't one of the better climbers out there, but this is all hype.

@CODMONSTER4LIFE 9 лет назад

Am I the only one part expecting when he climbs in first person for the ice to break and him have to hold on with one of the icepicks like in that MW2 mission? ok, ill go away now...

@lacrosse2man 9 лет назад

Get me this song! I cant find it anywhere and I assume it is because Redbull is the owners of this song!

So, Will, what's the self belay technique you're using re: the rope? My friend uses a twin rope self belay system...couldn't tell what you had going there... Thanks for any hints, C

@brucenator 9 лет назад

Will Gadd seems to have done this rather quickly. Yet I could find no report on how long it took. I watched his interview on Anderson Cooper, but it apparently didn't occur to Anderson Cooper to ask this question either. So how long did it take exactly?

@sydneyh8521 7 лет назад

brucenator Most likely took a few hours. The video is obviously edited shorter

@curtyuiop 9 лет назад

Only 72 years after Sir Edmund Hillary first climbed Mt. Everest was the Niagara Falls climbed. This must be ten times harder to climb than everest, way to go!

@thepanda414 7 лет назад

Not even close. Everest is probably harder than this at least a dozen fold.

@curtyuiop 7 лет назад

yes sir, I'm sorry it's hard to sense my sarcasm!

@thepanda414 7 лет назад

curtyuiop Was that sarcasm?

@curtyuiop 7 лет назад

SWI complete sarcasm sir, this easy climb is nothing but a promotion for red bullshit.

@Dimitrius096 9 лет назад

How does that water freeze...

@egacide 9 лет назад

water+cold=really cold water and really cold water+ more cold= ice

@Dimitrius096 9 лет назад

I meant the falls because its always flowing

@anononomous 9 лет назад

Dimitrius096 I believe it's the similar to the way an icicle forms. A thin layer freezes where it starts, then another thin layer freezes on that, eventually the ice moves down the face. It doesn't all freeze at once like a puddle on it's side.

@brianmagda5446 9 лет назад

Its the spray that freezes and slowly accumulates , check out videos of people throwing buckets of water out of their houses in freezing temperature and you'll get a good idea

@stakamaka 9 лет назад

the fences on the Canadian side is frozen too because of those spray.

@crazychris4124 9 лет назад

And then he attacked a Canadian military base n made a getaway on a snowmobile

@BayviewFinch 9 лет назад

That's actually a Canadian climbing up to the American side.

@swsmtnguide 9 лет назад

BayviewFinch two Canadians. The view just didn't show the other.

@Jayccoze 9 лет назад

***** No other way around. Niagara falls is Canadian

@dennis0belanger 9 лет назад

***** From an article I read... ".. scaled the 15-storey icy, jagged U.S. side of Horseshoe Falls"

@EvilMonkeyReturns 9 лет назад

Jake calvin Umm, no. Niagara Falls goes from the land-fall American side to Goat Island which is also American. Then there's the smaller Bridal Falls within the island itself (as Goat island is actually a series of islands, including the Three Sisters), then there's Horseshoe Falls which goes from Goat Island, and doing a U shape up to the Canadian Side. The Horseshoe falls is the safest to travel over in a barrel because there aren't rocks underneath unlike the American Falls (or Niagara Falls, as it's called).
