Blind climber Jesse Dufton along with his wife and sight guide Molly Dufton attempt their hardest 'non-sight' climb to date on the notorious 'El Matador' 5.10d, Devils Tower, Wyoming.Despite being blind Jesse leads trad, placing his own gear and takes whippers! What on earth must that be like??!!Having fallen off the route Jesse of course has little idea whereabouts he is on the pitch. Particularly having put so much effort in on the sustained route, Jesse is heart-broken to learn he is only half-way up!To give you some context of this super-human effort; Jesse was on this crux pitch for 2.5 hours. This made for a 10-minute scene in the film which makes for one of the longest we have ever produced for a single pitch of climbing. We felt it was important to really get across the endurance and persistence on display here.Climbing Blind II now streaming over on BritRock+, subscribe to watch -Link https://britrockplus.com/movie-details/8 | BritRock Films
