If you thought that was nailbiting, what about a baby Ibex running down a near vertical mountain to escape a fox? 👉 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTSVzeOdj8A

Issac Newton: Well, the cool thing about grav- Ibex: no
-
Wall: is 91° angle Goats: my time to shine

Couldn't comprehend how they did that climb, simply incredible.
-
I like how the mother is teaching her kid how to do it on his own. That kid did well.
-
Baby Human: Can't stand for several months without assistance. Baby Goat: PARKOUR!
-
Predator: “He is stuck, he can’t go anywhere” Ibex: “check this out”

It’s tradition to comeback and watch this video every ounce in a while
-
This is indeed nailbiting. I am pretty sire throughout history many of these animals have died because of slipping, but the fact they do this is quite impressive.
-
This is kinda video that no one searches for it but can't resist clicking it when it pops up in the suggestions
-
Parkour guy: I can climb buildings. Ibex: That's cute
-
As a person afraid of heights, my legs go numb just watching this 😨 Amazing animals to say the least! 👏
-
It's amazing to watch these animals climb a steep walls for minerals. Nice video. Nature takes care of itself in any many ways.

"All my haters be waiting for my downfall" -Ibex

Luckily these goats are not carnivores they just want some salt. Imagine being chased by a carnivorous goat that can climb a vertical dam.
-
This defines the saying..."Where this a will, there is a way".
-
The GOATS of rock climbing!
-
Ibex doesn't give a dam
-
The way he’s running down he isn’t scared at all.

The background music starting at 2:38 almost till the end, the narrator's voice, the goat's licking sound, I dunno but somehow strangely calming and relaxing love it.
