the professionals (PAL Video, 60min., 2001) World Champion climbers Francois Legrand and Yuji Hirayama gave themselves a challenge: go to the US, visit crags with the hardest routes, and try to do them all- in seven weeks. Two of the most successful climbers in history take you on a road trip full of the success, failure and reality of life as a Professional.
Producer Mike "MC" Call about filming "the professionals",
"The trip with François and Yuji was an epic beyond all, imagine: these guys want to impress the world with a trip of them attemping challenges that would take most people a season to do alone, and they want to do all in seven weeks...and they mostly fail (notable exception- Kryptonite) Plus they get World CupSeason ending injuries at the end of the trip. Yep, Yuji got his fingercaught in the rope while bouncing up, twisting it and ending his season for a while."
