The Nest 8C documentary by Jon Glassberg

Jon Glassberg from Louder Than Eleven is possibly the only climber, together with his wife Jessica Talley, beside the IFSC official Daniel Gajda, that have gotten four days photographer accreditation to the Olympics. 8a will share some of their pictures during the competition. The 37-year-old just made his first 8C by doing The Nest and with 191 cm and 86 kg, he might be the biggest boulderer who have reached that grade.
