Tiktok Climbing Star Balin Miller stirbt im Alter von 23 Jahren im Live -Stream aus Yosemite Herbst

Really shit fucking headline. Someone watching from the valley below was live streaming his progress when he fell. No affiliation with Balin, he was not live streaming himself.

Edit: very common for people to watch climbers in Yosemite from the valley floor through telescopes.

Very sad, my heart goes out to his friends and family and anyone who witnessed his death.

I practice another dangerous sport (not so much as climbing), so I understand his motivation and also the risks involved. Even then it’s hard to see passionate athletes lose their lives.
