Why? Well, according to the wall's designers, the London-based experience design and architectural installation studio Bompas & Parr, a visit to a conventional climbing wall is not only physically engaging, but viewed by many as intriguingly erotic. Apparently, "the combination of strength, balance and mental agility exhibited by climbers is enhanced by the voyeurism of spectators watching from behind."
They believe Grope Mountain turbocharges that affect, "making the erotic nature of the experience all the more manifest for climbers and spectators alike, resulting in an unrivalled date night for Valentine’s Day."
And all for a tenner on February 11th and 12th in London and February 14th in Liverpool.
Grope Mountain originally launched in 2015 at the Museum of Sex in New York as part of FUNLAND, an interactive exhibition about the pleasures and perils of an eroticised fairground. The latest version is new and improved, with a higher course and more routes to ascend.
As climbers mount the wall, working their way towards the ultimate objective, being crowned “King or Queen of Grope Mountain”, they engage physically with the holds "and cerebrally with the carefully choreographed routes". The idea is that the journey encourages a rethink of the participants’ own body.
We're not sure we buy it. Still, that doesn't mean we wouldn't pop in for a giggle.
