Holy SHIT! Not only is this a REAL LIVE photo of the same route ridiculed in the actually FIRST EVER worst photo, but it's currently rated at 5 stars! WHOAHS!
funny how live comes around. But it looks like in this photo the leader didn't bother to clip the first two way too low bolts.


It looks like the original photo was a bit of camera trickery and the ground drops off. From this view the first bolt doesnt look that unreasonably low. But only 1 out of the first two is needed.
After looking it over again, in sungams picture the leader only skipped the first bolt. Not the first 2 bolts like I thought in my above.
Here's the origonal photo. And there may be some trickery going on, as they titled their picture tonge in check as A desperate clip:
