2000
puštanje čak i pre nego što vaše telo to pomisli.
00:33
So hangвиси in there,

4000
Od tog momenta praktično padate.
01:05
So momentumмоментум is good. Don't stop.

With this, typicallyобично crackцрацк climbersplaninari
64

The cracksпукотине are too smallмали to get your toesпрсти на ногама into
67
182000
3000
Pukotine su isuviše male za to
03:17
so the only way to climbпопети се is usingКористећи your fingertipsvrhovima prstiju
68
185000
3000
pa je jedini način za penjanje korišćenje vrhova prstiju

In the 35 yearsгодине I've been a climbingпењање guideВодич
73
198000
2000
35 godina sam bio penjač - vodič
03:32
and taughtнаучио on indoorзатворено wallsзидови, and stuffствари like that,
74
200000
2000
i podučavao na zidovima u zatvorenom prostoru i tome slično.
03:34
the mostнајвише importantважно thing I've learnedнаучио
75
202000
2000
Najvažnija stvar koju sam naučio
03:36
was, guys will always try to do pull-upszgibova.
76
204000
3000
bila je da će momci uvek pokušati da se penju rukama, zgibovima.
03:39
BeginningPočetak guys, it's like, they thrashthrash, they thrashthrash,
77
207000
2000
Početnici se tako popnu
03:41
they get 15 feetстопала up --
78
209000
2000
nekih pet metara
03:43
and they can do about 15 pull-upszgibova right --
79
211000
2000
oni mogu uraditi nekih 15 zgibova --
03:45
And then they just flameplamen out.
80
213000
2000
I onda jednostavno izgore.
03:47
WomenŽene are much more in balanceбаланс
81
215000
2000
Žene su mnogo više balansirane
03:49
because they don't have that ideaидеја
82
217000
3000
jer nemaju tu ideju
03:52
that they're going to be ableу могуцности to do 100 pull-upszgibova.
83
220000
2000
da su sposobne da urade 100 zgibova.
03:54
They think about how to get the weightтежина over theirњихова feetстопала
84
222000
3000
Misle na to kako da prebace težinu sa nogu
03:57
because it's sortврста of naturalприродно -- they carryносити you all day long.
85
225000
3000
i to je prirodno - one vas nose celog dana.
04:00
So balanceбаланс is really criticalкритичан,
86
228000
2000
Tako da je ravnoteža veoma kritična,
04:02
and keepingчување your weightтежина on your feetстопала,
87
230000
2000
kao i držanje težine na stopalima

whichкоја is your strongestнајјачи muscleмишић.

04:06
And of courseкурс there is ruleправило numberброј nineдевет.
89

Tu je, naravno i pravilo devet.
04:08
I cameДошао up with ruleправило numberброј nineдевет after

2000
Smislio sam ovo pravilo
04:10
I actuallyзаправо didn't planплан for a fallпасти,
91
238000
2000
jer ja zapravo nisam planirao da padnem,
04:12
and wentотишао about 40 feetстопала and crackedЦрацкед a ribrebro.

93
243000
3000
Kada dođe momenat u kom shvatite da će se to desiti,
04:18
you need to startпочетак thinkingразмишљање about how you're going to let go
94
246000
3000
morate da počnete da mislite kako ćete se pusiti.
04:21
because that is the criticalкритичан pieceпиеце
