"Was" being the operative word there.

in the movie you see him miss a dyno and catch himself on the way down

I didn't see him miss a dyno in this clip. Are you talking about the Masters of Stone vid that it came from?
He's an animal. He kind of just flowed up the stone. Must have done that route a hundred times or better to get it that well wired.

The missed dyno is from a different video of him soloing some other route in Yosemite, not Lover's Leap

No, during the credits of MAsters of Stone they show him missing a move on Lover's Leap and then catching a hold a few feet lower. It is the same move where they show his fingernails hit over and over. The missed move is only in the credits.

In the other Master of stone he jumps from a handjam and misses, then tries again and sticks the jam. I'm still saying it's a different route

pretty ironic that it was a rope that cost him his life..
