Check out all of our adventures here: http://win.gs/1aXUVRM David Lama is best known for being able to scale the world's toughest alpine climbing routes, while Dani Arnold is famous for his speed. The two young alpinists recently teamed up for an expedition to Alaska and were able to realize a spectacular first ascent right away. With their new route "Bird of Prey" Lama and Arnold managed to pull off the first line through the central headwall of the 1500-metre (4500 ft.) east face of Moose's Tooth. The duo finished the demanding climb in remarkable speed, making it back to base camp within 48 hours. _________________________________________________ Experience the world of Red Bull like you have never seen it before.

They are playing extreme hardball. 5.10 without removing their crampons, minimal rack, most of which was likely sacraficed during the descent. Admire this type from a distance. I am a veteran El Cap soloist, and I would not go near this type of speed-dependant mixed climbing. The danger level is off the Richter Scale. But, my bet is that Lama will still be alive and kicking 40 years from now. His skillset is huge. But that's what I thought about my friend Dean Potter, who is now a big splat on a gully wall opposite El Cap.Shit does indeed happen.

See the instructions of how to turn on subtitles, turn on subtitles. Realise the guy speaks German, turn off subtitles. Realise he speaks incomprehensible Austrian German, turn subtitles back on :D

Always amazed when watching this guy climb. Extremely tough ascent, but as always, amazing to view down from a summit point. Well done to the summit team.
