Rumour has it that Louis Parkinson is the chemically-engineered lovechild of Hercules and Xena: Warrior Princess. Louis, as this video shows, has got some seriously insane strength and makes climbing up stuff look like an effortless walk in the park.

Louis has been doing these sorts of shenanigans since he was 13, which is probably a more logical explanation for his outrageous skills than the Hercules + Xena procreation theory. Whatever, we’ll stop writing now and let you get on with watching this seriously gnarly British climber pushing himself to the limit.
