The 8a climbing heroes

Here is the result of the poll "Who are your climbing heroes?" based on some 10 000 votes. 13 % Chris Sharma 12 % Adam Ondra 9 % Wolfgang Gülich 7 % Fred Nicole, Dave Graham 6 % Tommy Caldwell 5 % Nalle Hukkataival, Alex Megos, Alex Huber, Dani Andrada, Alex Honnold, Jimmy Webb 3 % Daniel Woods, Yuji Hirayama, Jan Hojer, Sean McColl In comparison to a similar poll from 2012, the major change is that especially Adam Ondra, Alex Megos, Tommy Caldwell, Jimmy Webb and Jan Hojer have got more votes this time. Kind of surprising that route climbers dominate. In total, 364 more names were also mentioned but none of them got more than 0.4 %. Actually many of the guys voted for are old heroes like Edlinger, Albert, Moon, Mofatt etc.
