She's actually not high. She is just a few rungs off the ground.

Yea I noticed that. I’m petrified of heights and I would climb that high. I also want to know how she claims she has that many cameras on her every single day for the last four years. First, we know filming has a “season” and second, every time someone says ‘we never see you X’ to call her out on lack of healthy cooking, exercise, etc isn’t her excuse that cameras aren’t always there?  So which is it?

 

edited to add - I agree that she’s being hoisted up there. But I’m worried that the power needed to hoist her up will jam her spandex pants and the thong part of the harness so far up into the cavern that is her butt crack they might have to be surgically removed.

Wow. She's asking a lot of that wall.

Looking at that pic, as someone who actually climbs, she's not wearing climbing shoes, has no chalk bag or chalk on her hands, the leg straps on the harness don't look like they actually go around her legs, her left hand doesn't appear to be actually holding herself upright, and the rope is taught like it's bearing weight.

What she's asking a lot of is that rope, the harness, and whoever the fuck has to belay her massive ass.

I guarantee there are multiple people belaying her massive ass.

There IS a video of Twit wall climbing. She starts at the bottom & climbs about 3 ft to where we saw the still photo. Then she tries to go further up & falls, to the applause of the crew for some reason.

To watch the video, go to Twit's IG page & press the photo in a circle next to her name.

I watched the video and she is literally hoisted up the wall by the rope.  There are several breaks in the video which is definitely edited.  Again, how can she get her toes on the climbing rocks past her massive stomach and thighs?

Totally staged, just like the jet ski one.  I felt sorry for the people who had to haul her fat body up and then stop her fall.  What a phony

Alas, she's already deleted it. (I went back to take another stab at linking it.) I think TLC told her not to give away all the story arcs as she did last year & she realized the wall climbing stunt gives away too much.

I'm more interested in knowing how many strong people were holding onto the other end of that rope.

Back to the jet ski discussion.  I couldn't figure out what type of life preserver she was wearing, so while sipping my morning coffee, I started googling.  I think she was wearing two CUSHIONS - one in the front and one in the back.  (Pictures below.)  Because the place where she skied may not have had plus-sized vests on-site (although they do make them).  But, really, is there any way she would NOT float on her own?

ETA:  Adding a photo of an old married, not-skinny couple on a jet ski.  Wearing real life vests.  And we went FAST.  I was in my mid-60s, he was over 70.  At the rate she's going, Twit should be jealous of THAT.

I have a home on the shore of a Great Pond (New England for "lake") and the shorefront property owners long ago agreed to ban the use of  jet skis to preserve the peaceful atmosphere. So, far from being jealous of Whitney as she plods along, braying and shrieking on her noisy and over-burdened jet ski, I am quite contentedly sipping my coffee while planning to head out to the small island in the middle of the pond in my kayak for a picnic lunch. Sorry to puncture your delusions, Whit!

I am ENVIOUS of YOU! This sounds like such a nice, beautiful, idyllic place. I would love this so much!

There are places to buy 5X life vests.  I've never known that they are a gender-specific product.  

It kind of makes sense, you want something tighter in the waist and roomier in the chest. I've tried both, although the neutral/mens' is default, and a woman-specific vest is SO much more comfortable.

Twit is not climbing the wall.  Notice how taunt the cable is, she is being hoisted into position by a crane.  No way would any of those ladders support her enormous weight or would she be able to get to that position on her own.  Heck, she can not the her own shoes or wipe her as s without assistance from another.

There's a reason climbers tend to be lean. You almost never see a heavy climber. There is zero chance she made it more than a few feet off the ground.

Whitney, responding on instagram to questions about why she doesn't feel complimented when people say on her workout videos that she looks thinner (although she's now claiming to weigh 350) and why she doesn't compliment others for weight loss:

So, because Whitney (a) allegedly suffered from body dysmorphia as a girl;  (b) allegedly developed eating disorders when she first tried losing weight, and (c) ultimately failed to the tune of 380* lbs. on a 5' 2" body , no one else is allowed to feel a sense of achievement for intentional weight loss? After all the therapy she's had, she still doesn't get that one can intentionally lose weight without "HARMING" (emphasis in the original) one's body in the process? The narcissism is strong in this one.

*She's claiming she weighs 350 lbs. now on one of her instagram Q&As. For someone who doesn't care about her weight, she sure jumped fast to correct someone whose posted question assumed that Whitney weighed over 400 lbs.

IMO that's just the excuse she uses so she can continue to eat mounds of sugar cereal, daily pizza deliveries, etc.

Because climbing is seriously fucking hard work. You're literally refuting gravity to go up a wall, and while it appears from the photo that they managed to find a harness they could get her into, they could not fit her swollen, fat filled feet into climbing shoes.

Anyone who is a climber knows the shoes are absolutely vital to your success in climbing a wall. They are tight as fuck and will let you stand on a hold that is only big enough to fit the tip of your big toe. The curvature and rigidity of the sole, as well as the fact that it is a gummy rubber with no treads at all make it possible to do things like flag and smear so that you can use your legs as much as possible. She's wearing regular street shoes. That's not something a gym allows anyone who is actually climbing walls to do.

Whitney could not climb a 5.5 on her own. She's clearly been hoisted up by belayers to even get 3 feet off the ground for that photo op, and the real difficulty in that isn't that it requires massive arm strength on the part of the belayer, but that she's probably close to triple the weight of anyone who does know how to belay a climber - and it is the pull up on the belayer's harness that keeps the climber from falling off the wall. There's no way she could be properly belayed to climb, not such that it's safe for the belayers.

I see Whitney's got your hackles up about climbing the same as she gets mine up about racing! I wonder how many people are belaying her? It's not super difficult to belay someone heavier than you, assuming they're, you know, actually climbing. But 400 pounds of dead weight going limp in the harness because it's harrrrd and it hurrrrts? Not even the strongest, fittest climber could belay that, surely there was a lift or multiple belayers.

Well, one person a third of her weight could belay her if she doesn't fall but they're not holding her weight if she does. I've belayed climbers who weigh 40 pounds more than I do, and I come off the damn ground when they fall.

Far as racing goes, well, stick around. I actually got more into rock climbing because it helps me be a better obstacle course racer. I run (road and trail). I bike. I swim. I lift. I rock climb. I obstacle course race. In two days I become officially a triathlete. Yeah her "racing", or rather how she lies about doing it, pisses me off to a great degree too. You'll see me criticize every bit of her Instagram lies. Walked that 8K in Hawaii my ass.

This is what I meant.  She may have given up on "finding love" (as these shows all love to say) but we have been given no indication that Tal is anywhere near in the same boat.  If anything he's the opposite, from what we've seen.

There are weight limits. She would stand there and scream about being fat-shamed. And even if the zipline company didn't have a weight restriction, she'd never get her thighs into the harness.

I doubt that, he has self esteem. I think Tal is a stealth famewhore who wants more attention and a bigger pay check. He saw Todd is so fed up and always trying to get out of doing things for her and slid right into that gay best friend opening in the cast of characters.

To me there is a big difference between gay best friend and domestic life partner. If Whitney had said it I would just chalk it up to her constant relationship exaggeration. But Tal doesn’t need to claim they are domestic partners to fill the gay best friend role and cash that bigger paycheck. I find it offensive that he’s trying to sell this.

That's still different than giving up all chances to have your own love and family in order to basically live as friends with someone forever.  I can see why Whit will take anyone but not Tal. Why am I talking about this anyway?  It's all make believe for the show.  I guess I'm just irked that they post this garbage (and make a tv show about it!) and expect us to buy it.

So uh, I'm bored at work so I was trawling her IG account, and found some shout-out to her stylist, who was in the background, and of course Whitney had herself focused and the stylist out of focus, so she looks like this:

From the fan comments I gather that Hanging Rock State Park is in or near Greensboro. It apparently is quite an exhaustive hike to the top, so was Twit lowered by cable from a helicopter? Or are we going to be treated to another wailing, blubbering Bataan Death March as we were in HI?

Obviously, there is some tie-in to the rock wall climbing.

Also, if you want to see a photo of makeupless Babs at the rock, which she will hate,  press Twit's photo in the circle at the top of her IG page.

Picture is definitely faked.  If you expand her picture you can see the faint outline around her body.   No one believes she is capable of making that hike when she can not even walk 3 kilometers on level ground without blubbering like a fool.  Heck, she can not even wipe her butt or put on her shoes without assistance.

All the pictures I could find in Google Images indicate landscape should be visible in the background.  Did they really choose a day when the weather was completely socked in?  What a waste.  I’m not sure Whitney was capable of climbing down into that area.  And the angle is wrong for a picture that isn’t a great deal distant, unless it was taken by helicopter.

I'm not familiar with the area (never heard of it before) so maybe the "trail" is wide enough to accommodate her scooter thingy. So she could ride 99% of the distance and be filmed walking 20 feet.....

The background was one of the things that seemed very off to me. There should be some kind of something in the background. And even when the sky is one color it really isn’t. It’s varying colors even when it’s the same hue. This is almost solid. The sky doesn’t really do that.

This appears to be the same rock. Even if the sky was white the trees would be visible. If it was so foggy or whatever that it whited out everything they wouldn’t have been able to see Whitney at that distance. Just fake fake fake.

Could be, but how would it be able to step down off the ledge to the area in which it is standing?  I really do not think it could make that step (looks about a foot).

Sit down on the ledge, put feet on lower shelf, stand up(with help), walk 5 feet......

But it really does look faked.

Chiming in late, as per usual, on the rock climbing convo, but I gotta throw in here too. Climbing is my jam and because I love it so ardently, I’m passionate about encouraging others to try it too. I always tell people who think they can’t that ‘if you can stand up from a squat, you can climb.’ So that is where Whitney and I part ways, because I truly believe that’s asking too much here. 

I too would love to see the belay sitch here. I climb outside exclusively—I hate gym climbing—and know you have to have *some* parity in weight between climber and belayer; I’ve been yanked off my feet by a climber who outweighs me but it’s not as dramatic as it sounds and muscle-memory keeps your rope-hand locked; nobody’s generally going to get hurt there. In a gym, if there’s a weight difference in favor of the climber, the belayer will generally either be harnessed into a large weight (more favorable) or be harnessed to the ground (less favorable). I cannot fathom how a single person could belay someone of Whitney’s weight and am dying to see. Which is to say, by golly, she’s tempted me to tune in for at least this episode next season because there are a few conceivable outcomes to this climbing experience and I wanna see which it is: 

1. There are at minimum two backup belayers to approximate her weight. 

2. There is only one sad gym employee belaying her and when Whitney inevitability falls, said employee can’t mitigate the fall and Whitney decks, or...

3. What we see is actually the highest Whitney actually goes, and the fall is more of a step down. Everyone lives to tell the tale. 

Can someone please ping me when this episode’s gonna air? Because I don’t care about literally anything else she’s going to pretend to have going on.
