I couldn't help myself from the documentary that I was addicted to rock climbing over the weekend. I first watched this year's Oscar best documentary "Freehand Rock Climbing", and was moved by the story of the protagonist and his group of friends who were filming with him. I turned to watch another "Climbing Mount Meru" by "Freehand Rock Climbing" director Jimmy Chin, and admired their courage to give up 100 meters away from the summit, considering all aspects of safety. Then watch the "Wall of Dawn". I had to shout, it was delicious!

I have to say that the protagonist Tommy's life is really because he manually selected the Professional Mode, and he can still enjoy challenging the world's most difficult climbing routes time and time again.

God Tomny was influenced by his father since he was a child and started rock climbing at a very young age. Then the young man went to a rock climbing competition once. He really just wanted to be a spectator, but he could sign up on the spot, so let’s try it, and he won the first place without any accident and became famous in one fell swoop. Immediately afterwards, he met Beth, his girlfriend who was also a rock climbing enthusiast, and fell in love. The two fell in love in rock climbing together. Later, I went rock climbing in Kyrgyzstan with my girlfriend and friends, but I was kidnapped by terrorists there. In the end, the protagonist pushed the terrorists down the cliff and was rescued. Later, after coming back, he also married his girlfriend, but both of them suffered a lot of psychological trauma, so they decided to heal themselves in rock climbing. Later, the male protagonist was making something with a table saw and accidentally cut off the index finger of his left hand. A rock climber, without an index finger, the doctor said at the time that you have to say goodbye to this in the future. The stubborn protagonist not only did not give up but also became stronger. But at this time, the marriage also went wrong. After the divorce, the protagonist put the whole center in a desperate attempt to challenge the dawn wall of Yosemite El Captain. After researching for a long time, I also met my friend Kevin by coincidence, and the two teamed up and began to realize their dreams.

What touched me the most in the movie was the friendship between the two who encouraged each other in Pitch 15. First, Tommy passed Pitch15, but Kevin failed many times and got stuck in the same place, so Tommy climbed a few paragraphs forward. He could have just climbed to the top by himself regardless of Kevin, but he felt that if it wasn't for them If the two reach the top together, it is not a real success. You must know that when he stops, he may encounter changeable weather and various emergencies, and it is very likely that neither of them will be able to reach the summit directly. Nevertheless, he returned to Pitch15, devoted himself to appeasing his teammates' emotions, helped him analyze his movements, encouraged him to keep trying, stuck in place for 7 days, failed countless times, his fingers were worn and bleeding, he recovered a little and continued to try hard, In the end, Kevin still passed like a god, and I really want to cry when I see this. Then Kevin became more and more brave and quickly caught up with Tommy. Even after the section where Tommy could only climb down, he jumped inconceivably, grabbing the rock body that protruded a few millimeters with his fingertips, and completed the horizontal climb. Then the two move up in sync.

Before reaching the summit on their last day, the two of them were in the hanging tent on the Dawn Wall, welcoming the first ray of sunshine on Yosemite El Captain, like a child baptized by God, smiled and said, I really want to cancel all arrangements, just in Camping here. I saw their sincere smiles and the sparkle in their eyes, which is the love for rock climbing, the uncompromising stubbornness of the difficult life and the climbing route, and the unreserved trust and support of the teammates they chose. , is the hope of always planning the next challenge.

After watching three climbing movies in a row, I finally felt the beauty of this sport. It is to use the most difficult route to hone and carve out the purest and toughest self, dedicated to the dazzling starry sky above Yosemite!

    The first step I watched was a rock-climbing-related movie. People got full marks for their spirit. The movie as a whole didn’t feel very inspiring. I look forward to Alex’s free solo and reel rock in the future.
