Hi folks!

On the Turner movie channel (TCM) over here, they often show old,
vintage shorts in-between feature films, and every once in a while
there's one that comes up from 1938 called "Three On A Rope".
Although I don't imagine it could in any way really be classed as a
"Bergfilm", it's basically a sort of instructional film about
mountain climbing (portrayed with a fair bit of humour) -- it even
includes a base jumper at the end of the clip (which I found rather
surprising for that time, as I thought that was only a more recent thing)!

Anyway, I just discovered that it's available on YouTube (someone
quite obviously just captured it off of TCM)...

Like I said, it's not exactly a "Bergfilm", but I thought that anyone
interested in this latter genre might find it entertaining, nevertheless.
