As others have stated, that 60minutes piece was painful to watch. Watching someone hook their way up a stepped-out piece of blue, plastic ice that's metres thick is not my idea of high-risk climbing.

That footage was referenced off Will Gadd's blog back in February of this year. Put two and two together and following their interview with him, they've clearly tracked it down from his website. On that note, it's a shame they didn't air more footage of Will compared to the female climber - that would have at least been a more realistic look at the sport with some intelligent commentary from someone with plenty of experience.
