Chris PRESCOTT, Paul DIFFLEY
James Pearson, who has been into adventurous sports and has enjoyed mid air hanging, acrobatic moves and climbing since he was three, starts learning climbing and is fascinated by the charm of climbing. While others at his age enjoy TV viewing and video game play, he spends time doing natural activities like forest hiking and rock climbing, especially at Blackrock. A number of routes he conquered are introduced. In old footages filmed by the supporting company, Pearson uses the tips of three fingers to proficiently control balance. As he climbs all over the UK and Scotland, viewers can hear the heartbeat of the climber and will think as if they were climbing with him. The film shows the pure passion for climbing of childhood and the process of becoming the best British climber adds to the footages that have been taken since 1998.
