Magnus: Uncomfortable

November 13, 2026 · 1 h 4 min

Show notes

Magnus Mitbø isn’t afraid to get uncomfortable. Embark on tests of superhuman endurance? Check. Undergo special forces physical testing? Done that. Keep up with Alex on a day of soloing? He survived. But before the YouTube fame, Magnus was one of the best climbers in the world. And that might have been the most uncomfortable experience of all.
