A 40m long off-width roof crack in the [White Rim](/crag/34012/white-rim), an outrageous adventure into horizontal suffering and the hardest off-width in the world at the time of the first ascent. Century Crack was discovered by [Steve 'Crusher' Bartlett](/climber/2506/steve-bartlett) who aid climbed it in 2001 (*Chocolate Starfish*, A1), before showing it to [Stevie Haston](/climber/135/stevie-haston), who put in some major efforts to free climb the route. Weighed down by an enormous rack of large cams, Stevie made progress but stripping the route after each attempt lest him wasted for days. Around 2009, Aspirant 'Wideboyz' [Tom Randall](/climber/322/tom-randall) and [Pete Whittaker](/climber/166/pete-whittaker), got wind of the project and started a relentless two-year training regime in the cellar of Tom's house, doing countless laps of inverted shuffling, sandwiched between two planks of wood. In October 2011, released from the cellar and blinking in the unfamiliar daylight, Tom and Pete set off on an off-width tour of the US, where they made short work of most of the existing hard cracks.
