Examples of climber in a Sentence

1. Elbert Hubbard:

   Enthusiasm is the great hill-climber.

2. Steve Watkins:

   What happened was that there was a 7.8 magnitude earthquake, we found ourselves -- I was at 19,000 feet. We lived. There were several other fatalities. I exchanged compliments with another climber who doesn't remember the nature of that compliment being the same as I quoted. I said sorry, I took it down.

3. Claudio Semini:

   Compared to other teams in China and the U.S. we have focused a lot on the versatility. So this (HyQ) platform can do many different motions ranging from very fast motions like a run or a jump. But it can also do the more careful navigation on rough terrain where we need to plan really one foothold after the next. And this is important, once we see the 3D map of the environment we can start to understand how to best move through that environment, we don't want to be the fastest or the best climber, but we want to have a machine that can do many of these motions; as in the real world, the machine will need to have many different skills.

4. Lindsay Wenndt:

   In order for me to be a better climber, I have to communicate clearly with the person belaying me so they know how I'm feeling, when I need a break or if I want to change the climb in any way, the same is true if I'm the one holding the rope.

5. Pilot Mauritzio Folini:

   I am a climber myself. I love my job, but now ... it's a tragedy.
