Tioga cliff, He starts on Swiss chocolate 11d then does the dan Osman traverse, not sure what that's graded.

Wow this was stressful.  After watching this I would have given him 50/50 odds of pulling it off alive.  Not sure if you want to free solo with those odds!

Beat Kammerlander is a legendary Austrian climber. I think this video is from back in the 90s, ah, 1999 per the googles. So Beat was 40 years old when the video was made! I think his odds were more like 99.99 to .01 in favor of making the ascent but I am biased by the foreknowledge he was successful, some 22 years ago :)

Many of Kammerlander's classic routes, such as Silbergeier 5.14a, were established ground-up on lead back in the 1990s.

Glad to see "Linda Vida" posted.
