Chris Sharma doing Realization, 9a+ in 2001
It should be noted that even if the headline of the video says, "World's First 5.15" (9a+), this is most likely not true as Akira 9b, Open Air 9a+ and The Big Bang, 9a+ were done in 1996. Also interesting is that Chris Sharma just four days after he had done the endurance challenge he "won" the Munich Boulder World Cup. Further more, in France they still use the original name of the route - Biographie.
