The Adrenalin Cocktail – Mark Twight and Randy Rackliff Free Solo Ice Back in the Day
The definition of hardmen right here.
In this vintage video, Mark Twight and Randy Rackliff free solo classic ice climbs in the Canadian Rockies including Polar Circus (WI 5), Whiteman Falls (WI 6) and Professor Falls (WI 4). There are some seriously sketchy moments in here—check out the climbing starting around 2:15, for example.
The onesies, the soundtrack, the headbands, the boldness—these guys were doing it right.
