The Real Thing DVD

First released on video back in 1996, The Real Thing was massively popular and
produced in the same vein as Hard Grit. Now available on DVD for the first
time the film features Jerry Moffatt and Ben Moon, two of Britain’s best
climbers as they embark on a ‹road-trip› from the crags and boulders of the
Peak District to the world famous bouldering ‹mecca› of Fontainebleau.

The climax of the film is Moon’s ascent of Fred Nicole’s Karma (V11) – other
highlights include Moffatt’s ‹hair-raising› drive, in his Lancia Evolution,
from Sheffield to Stanage and some amazing training scenes; all great fun and
reminder of how climbing used to be…
