WE ARE SO BACK

But fr tho these videos are some of my favorite videos ever to watch, please keep making them!

Also no, you are absolutely wrong, climbers will not get bored on these types of videos. I'll watch every one of them you make because I have learned SO much by watching the way you move and think through problems. Literally every boulder I try and fail on, "how would magnus do this?" then it becomes a question of "do I need to get stronger, or do I need to climb smarter?" Usually it's not a matter of "need more strong" (although clearly there's things I can't do yet, they're also above my grade range so I'm patient and training for it). Things inside my grade range can 99.9% be solved by "climb smarter" - and watching the way you use body dynamics, feet, center of gravity, flags, smears, etc all help.

You've often said "I'm not a good coach" but you cannot discount the sheer volume of climbing you have shown the world. (Any parent can attest to this next bit!) People learn by example and watching you has helped me improve rapidly. Just by trying to emulate things you do, I have suddenly found that "wow that feels so natural" and now it's just part of how I climb.

Magnus: "If I post too many videos like this, people will get bored of it"

I won't get bored Magnus, I won't get bored.

I definitely prefer this style of video to the current main channel stuff.

[DASTUGA]

Dude casually mentions hes doing a collab with pewdiepie, Toby Segar and Eddie Hall! I'm so excited!

[TheDryes]

I miss old school YouTube like this. It’s a relaxing approach when I’m taking a break, and doesn’t try to over stimulate the viewer. Kudos for bringing this back!

[AndrewMoizer]

This is exactly the type of video that drew me to your channel ~4 years back. And I haven’t got bored of them so far. Thanks.

[ChiefTief]

This is the content I love, no gimmicks, just climbing.

[kkhchannel]

This channel feels like a cozy, quiet reading room that is insulated from the big party going on in the main channel.
We talk like friends here, instead of watching a show.
Really like this 2nd channel.

Pumped for the Toby collab. Please don't fall for the attention span meme, those people who can only watch shorts may exist, but they're a far smaller audience than they're made out to be, and generally just consumers indifferent to the form of content getting pushed on them. They're the same people who will watch, in its entirety, a 6 hour video essay of some random insignificant detail in a game or movie. No need to shift to either extreme, just make want you want. Gimmicks and novelty bring views and spice things up, but intimacy and personality are what separate every good channel/creator from every other one, and make you unique. I love Toby.

"My shoes are almost the size of my of foot". I love how this doesn't sound like a strange quote to climbers.

[Jason]

I miss this kind of content, just chill bouldering and dialog!

[andrec.fennell]

6:00 Shout out to the editor with the music here matching the sound of hitting holds PERFECTLY. Absolutely amazing

Answer to your question at ~ 4:15

I personally have a strong preference for seeing you climb technical stuff. Watching you do some crazy powerful move is cool and all, but not really useful or relatable. Seeing you work your way through something technical and difficult is way more fun than just seeing you be strong. Obviously you're really strong, but the technical work is more engaging to watch.

Also, as you mention at 9:48 the algorithm definitely has changed. I know I'm only one viewer, but I think this format is worlds better than your more gimmicky or flashy content where you go undercover and stuff. I came here for strong climbing and a fun personality, and this kind of video is the best format for that. While I understand why you can't make tons of this style, but I appreciate that you still do it sometimes!

[akokada]

Should have said "I refuse to climb with Pewdiepie unless, he apologies for being Sweedish"
Lol

[tp]

4:37 Definitely a mix of both!

Also this is my favorite kind of content please make more of it!

[pcninjagaming]

I personally love these type of videos. Super relaxing and cool watching you just simply climb and talk about the boulders.

[androgynousmaggot]

10:20 nah, climbers will always watch you climb, a more personal, chill videos where you don't have to "perform", it's not that you're disingenuous on the main, but as you said the algorithm loves regular and frequent uploads, short and flashy videos! In any way, do what you like, what makes YOU happy, and the viewers will come! We crave authenticity!
