#Climbing . . .

#AlexHonnold is the only person known to have climbed the 3000 ft face of #ElCapitan in #Yosemite #FreeSolo (without ropes &/or safety gear).

This climb was recorded in the documentary Free Solo (2018). I have a copy of it on DVD. It can be viewed for free on a least one #AltStreaming channel & for a fee on PPV/subscription channels.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Solo

Honnold just free soloed the 1617 ft skyscraper in Taiwan known as #Taipei101.

This climb was filmed & apparently sponsored by #Neflix, where you can watch the entire climb if you are a subscriber.

轉：Sanni 在 Alex 要獨攀酋長岩那天，選擇先離開現場，她知道自己如果在場會影響到 Alex。

看到她在車上痛哭，說自己當然很擔心這是他們最後一次擁抱和見面，當下覺得這個女人真是了不起，她真的非常非常愛 Alex，所以可以讓自己暫時放手。

Alex 的媽媽也說，她很感謝 Alex 每次要 free solo 前都不會告訴她，因為她一定會阻止他。

我覺得 Alex 是一個非常幸福的人，雖然他真誠 (brutally honest) 到有點讓一般人無法適應，但他身邊的朋友和家人都很愛他，Alex 也沒把這些人的愛視為理所當然，他也很在乎他們的感受，他說：「誰會想在自己的朋友面前死掉？」

我很喜歡 Tommy（也是攀岩傳奇）在紀錄片中說，他沒看過 Alex 受傷，但他認識 Sanni 後短期內受傷了兩次。

他不是指 Sanni 帶賽，而是指 Sanni 走進了 Alex 的內心，讓他有了牽掛。

愛就是引力，會把你從孤獨的世界拉下來，往你愛的人墜落。

Alex Honnold’s Wife Recalls “Internal Experience” During His Climb: “Thank God I’m Not Him!”

Am I impressed? No… and I don’t think Netflix should be filming and promoting this kind of insanity either. The fact it was filmed with a ten second delay in case he fell to his death really puts things in perspective…

Alex Honnold Says Netflix Paid “Embarrassingly Small Amount” For Taipei 101 Climb: “I Would Do It For Free”

Despite already knowing #AlexHonnold successfully climbed the exterior of #Taipei101 earlier today with no safety equipment, I can’t help but feel anxious seeing him scale the skyscraper. 🏢

Einen 508 m hohen Wolkenkratzer #freeSolo ohne Sicherungen zu erklimmen scheint waghalsig, mit tödlichem Risiko. US-Bürger #AlexHonnold did it.
Er lebt. 🙂

Auf der Straße Bundes-Einsatzkräft zu filmen klingt nicht sehr waghalsig, sondern ungefährlich. #US-Bürger #AlexPretti did it.
He is dead now. 😢

RE: https://mastodon.social/@benroyce/115954118323844695

Was desperately holding my breath while watching #AlexHonnold #freesolo El Capitan and the reactions of Jimmy Chin then. I'm sure that there were many more holding their breath today as this climb was broadcast live from #Taipei101 - fantabulous!! 👏👏👏🏆

In 2016 they took an MRI of this man's brain (#AlexHonnold)

His #amygdala, our brains' fear center, remained inert as he was exposed to disturbing images (ours would light up)

He's basically the anti-MAGA (MAGA people are programmed via Fox News and insane social media content by goosing their overactive fear response)

He just free soloed (no ropes) #Taipei101, the 11th tallest building in the world in a little over an hour and a half

He convinced his mom to take up climbing at the age of 60

@mroach Yup, that's basically the point of my original post.
- Mainstream folks had no clue who #AlexHonnold was up until #FreeSolo
- People outside of #paragliding bubble hardly ever heard of #ChriglMaurer
- Unless you're into awesome trail performances, the name #KílianJornet quite likely does not ring a bell
- etc.

The assumption that because something is popular (in my bubble) that people will generally know about it, is quite likely not true.
