Jeez I love the puns
That is pretty amazing
We are spectacular!! We haven’t even begun to test our true potential. Fear can indeed protect us or prevent us.
Thanks for the journey!
wow, thnx, nice post.
My palms are sweating just watching that! Incredible!
Almost had an attack of vertigo just watching that. I’m in awe!
I predict he’ll be dead real soon….
WOW. I’d love to be able to do that! Actually… would I?
Wow! My palms were so sweaty watching this!!! He’s really hardcore!
Death wish? Lol. That is insaaaaane. I can’t even go up a ladder….haha! ….seriously
My palms were also sweating just looking at the video. Incredible guy
that’s the way it should be done, son!
Terrifying just to watch!
holy moly
I’ve done some climbing without rope, nothing like that though, and I agree that’s how it should be done/ that’s really climbing.
The question really going through my head though is, ‘do I want my friends casting me as someone that “doesn’t even feel fear or feel any of the normal human emotions that anybody else feels” or for that matter, as someone who can “just shut [my] brain off and do some of the sickest things that have ever been done”?’
What is WRONG with you people? Please make him stop. He’s going to make such a mess one of these days.
That is damn sexy.
That was really hard to watch! I am so afraid of heights myself I couldn’t even bear to look at those heights! I pity his mother!
Amazing, but I too wish he would stop!
How does one hold their entire body up by one finger? I mean seriously.
Got a link from a good friend and had to check it out.
First, I am a climber and indoor-climbing instructor and I am very afraid of heights!
However, climbing is essential to me. It’s the greatest feeling I know, finishing a climb in the great outdoors
As for holding the body with one finger only, training training training. Muscles are easy to build, tendons and ligaments takes more time. Hard learned lesson, had to give up climbing for several years due to finger pains after overdoing it a bit.
As for his free-solo climbing, well. His choice, isn’t it?
