Epic fact no. 147: a knee bar is a climbing move in which the knee or upper thigh is wedged against a rock in such a way that it supports some or all of a climber's weight. A knee bar on a problem this hard is guaranteed to be a pretty uncomfortable affair. Not that a bit of discomfort is going to dissuade guys rocking these kinds of muscles.

Watch Jimmy Webb, Daniel Woods, and Dave Graham square off for the first ascent of a problem called 'The Wheel of Wolvo'. It's the most recently discovered, futuristic project at Lincoln Lake, AKA Wolverineland, in the Colorado High-Country of the Mount Evans Wilderness.

The line eventually falls at 8C/V15, which is basically the grade that Spiderman climbs on a good day. For a bit of fun, see if you can count the number of times that the climbers look at their fingers after falling off the problem.
