Editorial Reviews

26 year old Dean Potter is a human acetylene torch, burning down the walls of the "impossible". With his steel cable physique and the eyes of a hunting wolf, this barefoot mountain rescue specialist keeps his exploits in perspective with self-deprecating humor and a deep respect for the disabled. When he moves into action, Potter's raw power, emotional intensity and deadly commitment reveal a terrifying world at the outer edges of human ability. Steph Davis is beautiful, brilliant and insanely bold...free-soloing 5.12 and 5.11+ on red desert sandstone. Potter and Davis inspire each other to increasing heights of madness. While Dan Osman's fatal final adventure must be seen to be believed. Hanging by fingertips 3000 feet off the ground with no rope or safety gear, tip-toeing a one-inch strip of nylon across a 120 foot-wide chasm, leaping off cliffs with laughter and fury, Potter and his friends deliver a whole new level of climbing action, set to a high-quality, adrenaline-pounding soundtrack featuring Metallica. Featuring: Speed-Soloing El Capitan, High-Ball Bouldering, Female Freesoloing, Blind Crack Climbing, World Record Slacklining, World Record Rope Freefalling, Arctic BASE Jumping and more. Starring: Dean Potter, Steph Davis, Scott Burk, Will Oxx and Dave Barlia PLUS: Mark Wellman, Hugh Herr, Eric Weihenmayer, a special tribute to Dan Osman and more. More than any other sport, rock climbing continually redefines its rules and resets it s limits. Yesterday's "impossible" becomes today's warm-up, as advances in training, equipment, mental and physical control combine to break new ground. Every few years the MASTERS OF STONE series delivers a new episode that captures these breaththroughs in a tasty mix of music, character, commentary and, above all, visual actions.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, September 17, 2010

This review is from: Masters of Stone 5 Climbing DVD (DVD)

I have a collection of extreme sport dvd's and like to put on when friends come over. I wont be putting this dvd on my play list. I have seen Masters of the Stone 3,4, and 5. Number 3 sucks, 4 is awesome and now 5 sucks. You got it right in #4, what happened guys? The camera they used were poor quality, the kind used in cheap "B" rated movies and half the sound track sucked. The jumping parts where cool and also had some great scenery, but most was boring. I suppose it is slightly better than #3. Just doesn't have the same level of quality as say mountain biking movies like New World Disorder. Just overall disappointing.
