can we talk about the fact that the commentators kept saying "this is the wrong way to do it" like bro it's a boulder problem. not math homework like they're saying. there's more than one way to do it

[joepodolska]

No matter when or where, Miho Nonaka's performances are always beautiful. I love you Miho!!!

Well, at least Janja being incredibly dominant saved us from the clusterfuck that was this format/scoring system, felt like the medalists actually made sense here (as opposed to the men’s competition). Heartbreaker for Brooke though, losing her medal through an uncharacteristic mistake on the lead wall.

Also that group hug at the end I can’t

[claudiaa.]

I have never done climbing, I’m not even Slovenian, but I cried of joy when Janja received her medal! She was MAGICAL

[brandonreaves]

Janja coming out to the lead route to the darth vader imperial march theme is just golden. The person in charge needs a raise.

It's a shame the Olympics didn't give medals separately for each type of climbing. That's the same as telling Usain Bolt that he has to compete in the decathlon and there are no medals for 100m and 200m only. Hope Olympic officials can understand this knowing that climbing is a big thing and each disciplines should be separated from one another.

Sport’s climbing is so entertaining to watch, I’m so happy they finally uploaded the women’s one

[nkartashov]

4:27 speed start
1:13:25 bouldering start
3:53:46 lead start

[sofialai]

No matter how many times I see that final Janja-Miho-Akiyo hug, I will always tear up

[SophieEtVirginie]

I really feel for Brooke Raboutou. She did some superb climbing moves! An incredible effort!

[amsterdan]

2:59:55 The synchronized 'woow' from the crowd because of how delicate and solid she did the move all others found impossible. She really is the GOAT of climbing.

[TabsHof]

It's such a delight watching Janja Garnbret climb <3

[oceanbreeze]

I cried so much when Brooke fell way too early in lead... I would have loved for her to win a medal! She's my inspiration in climbing 😍😍

Janja is so impressive, it’s absolutely surreal to watch

[gnaagren]

Let's not forget about Alexandra Miroslav absolutely obliterating the Speed WR. From 06:96 to 06:84 is a massive improvement. That's like a 100m sprinter beating the WR by like 0.13s.

[hufemeve]

AMAZING addition to the Olympics 👏👏 Thank you Tokyo for being pioneer in its instauration

[rebecasancheznavarro]

I've been looking everywhere for this! Finally!

[livi]

The Imperial March playing when Janja walks out for lead is perfect! 4:08:19

Edit: Thanks for the time correction @B Buttons

this video introduced me to this event. I'm tired from holding my breath watching these women, though I have no idea who they are. Talk about strength and grit under pressure....but ya got just 3 minutes, including any housekeeping. Love it!
