Just one thing. It's not the Eiger. It's the Grandes Jorasses, part of the Mont Blanc massif.

dogwatch, hmm, the info I read on FB before I posted the link did say it was the Eiger and I apologise if that is incorrect. Still pretty amazing though.

Hells Bells, there is also footage of him speed climbing the Eiger which is mind-blowing!
On a slight tangent, was he one of the climbers involved in the rather aggressive tête à tête with some Sherpas recently? I remember one of the names being similar.

Samerberg Sue, maybe I clicked the wrong link then, I was sure I'd posted the one of the Eiger. That was certainly the one I watched I'm sure.

From TGR "and yeah.... sorry to tell you that... but most the shots are actually not from the live event (not sure if the helicopter shots are live though). They went back into the Eiger wall a few days later and shot the key sections. Otherwise they would have needed a dozen or so camera teams in the wall. But they are impressive nonetheless." http://www.tetongravity.com/forums/archive/index.php?t-219671.html
Still amazing though
