    Exactly what I did when I went skydiving. The day of my jump, I woke up with excitement and hype . I was blasting music while I went to pick up my friend . We kept that energy of “I’m ready, letssss goooooo!!” . So since I kept that excitement turned on , there was no room for fear to creep into me . When I we began flying up, and they opened the door, it got soooo loud and it intimidated me so I had to reintroduce the hyper energy to myself by screaming “Letsssss gooooo!!” Similar to a football game locker room before a championship ! And that gave me the courage to jump with complete excitement and confidence

    Just watched this film the other night. I’ve been fascinated with the Tepui of Venezuela, Brazil, Guyana, Suriname, and even some of their smaller cousins in Colombia for a really long time. Just a completely unique and beautiful part of the planet. Seen tons of photos, watched as many documentaries as I could find over the years. This film did not disappoint in the slightest (although I would have loved it were longer). The footage is perhaps the most beautiful I’ve ever seen caught on film. I think they brought an expert drone videographer with them specifically for getting the shots they did. Utterly superlative. It really sucks that it’s only on Disney +, but if you have the means, do yourself a favor and watch. It’s as beautiful as it gets.

    I’m pretty sure Alex got to climb the tepuy called Kukenán, which is just north of Roraima. It’s one of the most dangerous tepuys to climb since the route is not as defined as Roraima’s, concluding on a lot of casualties during climbing trips on it. On another note, the frogs he probably got to study are very tiny ones which are totally black. You get to see them once you’re on the summit of Roraima. They’re incredibly beautiful! Happy Venezuelan that got to meet such a mind blowing wonder. Proud of my country.

    Alex can hold my attention just with the enthusiasm he has for the stuff he talks about , I just hope he doesn’t go early on some solo climb ,most people that push the limits do , that’s probably why i find him so interesting, his complete casual attitude to things that terrify me just watching it through the tv never mind actually doing it , I really hope he’s the exception to the rule, but then on the other hand I’m giving an opinion on KZread and Alex is sat on a pod cast talking about another adventure 🤔
