Voted 5/5

Timmy O'Neill cracks me up. There's a section of this DVD called "Urban Ape" where Timmy is climbing all over buildings etc. like a cat burglar...really cool/amazing stuff! There is some bouldering at Morrison, climbing in the Flatirons (north face of Seal Rock 5.12X), Heidi Wurtz (HOT!!!) on "The Wasp" 5.13a crack, a climbing dog at Eldo, base jumping, some Topher Donahue sends, and a nice/amazing feature on Derek Hersey the free soloist.

Not sure why these people are called "freaks" since it doesn't seem like they're doing anything that crazy, but this could definitely be applied to Timmy and Mr. Hersey!!!
