“The unbelievable story of two retired competition climbers’ attempt to free the Nose”

Documentary · 50m

Alex Waterhouse and Billy Ridal are two recently retired competition climbers that attempt to apply their indoor skills to real rock in the most extra-ordinary fashion. With almost no traditional climbing experience and barely a multi-pitch climb between them, our audacious duo set out to be the first Britons to make a free ascent of the world famous Nose on El Capitan, Yosemite. The route was first climbed by Lynn Hill in 1993 and has subsequently only received eight ascents in 30 years. To say the odds were stacked against them would be an understatement comparable in size to the route itself. Hold tight as the action-packed film tracks this most unlikely of journeys to success.
