Using Jason Myers original sequence.

At the time, during our stay in England, I absolutely wanted to climb Brad Pitt in the original way. If only because Ben [Moon] and Jerry [Moffatt] had run a bet about whether Jason Myers' problem was doable or not.

After three hours or so, I could repeat the problem in the original way, and well... as there was a possible sit start... [1]
