Don't get your panties in a wad, Majid.
If this isn't appropriate for the "General" forum then the mod's can move it to where ever it belongs. No harm done.

I spend time in RC looking for quality post to read and not for some Caterpillar rig doing competion climbing. if you do not stop this now then next time we will see a donkey climbing a wall.
I will PM the Mod about this post.

I'd like to point out in the lower-left frame the crane's awesome technique by use of a "knee-bar" to free up it's arm.
Some serious body-tension in the other moves, though.
(Just trying to keep this on topic!)

That excavator looks like a gym-climbing noob. To me. Take it to a 5.6 trad route, and it would probably cry. What a wuss. I bet it can't even place cams.

I feel Aceto would say the industrial nature inherent in the picture is an accurate representation of free solo but poor representation of divinity.
The question is:
Does this construction equipment climb for the right reasons or not?
