One armed rope climb

Dunno if this has been posted before. Climbing a rope gripping it with one arm and no legs :eek: I remember reading an interview with Jasper Benincasa where he talked about doing these.

And here's a video of the same individual doing some of the smoothest one arm pullups I've ever seen.

It was posted a good while back, the guy in the second video is called Cisco, not sure if he is in the first video, but he also does a one arm rope climb.

I think this is him too, I think Hanley posted this ages ago.

Just a bit extra on the cool vids already posted. This is a video of the one-arm pullups on rings (posted by Rubadub above)... except this one zooms in to show that not only is it a one-arm pullup, he is also using only 2 fingers! crazy stuff!

That Cisco guy is some beast. He is at at least as good as those on this list

And Cisco is one of the few with it all recorded on video.
