Would it be possible to build some sort of trebuchet to fling me to the mountain's peak?

Better yet do a balloon space jump like that redbull guy from a few years ago, but then also have a snowboard and do sick grinds down the line of hundreds of rich idiots

The two dudes climbing Yosemite are almost at the top. Cool and safe climbing is just as impressive!

Oh man I forgot about these guys! They've already been at it for like two weeks or something, and there's a pair of Nat Geo film dudes climbing with them so we'll get some pretty amazing videos at some point.

I'm picturing Bitter Mushroom sitting in the bank's office wearing full survival suit + O2 tank and stone bluffing "I want to start a small business".

When I was skiing I talked with a lot of teenagers who wore helmets simply so they could attach a Go-Pro to it, one wonders whether the net effect of all those extra helmets will be to save lives, or to cause more injuries from kids showing off on camera.

poo poo like that inspires a kind of visceral terror that nothing on else on earth can match. I would literally rather die than go into that hole.

If I'm taking the BART down there I might as well stop at the Jolibees right at the San Bruno stop first (in tanforan)

Eating Jolibee is more dangerous than mountaineering imo, that poo poo is toxic

A solo climb without oxygen so you can test your smart home from the summit? Sure, why not.

I need to know exactly when he plans to summit, so I can light his house on fire

edit- How the hell do you just link the URL to the playlist? Every time I copy and paste it it automatically makes it a video that can't play. Sort of fixed it but Id still like to know

I've gotten it to work by using right click>paste as plain text, still a royal pain though.
