Love his quick refusal of the idea that he has a "special brain." His brain scan was actually testing how he responded to certain images that would normally heighten anxiety. It's one of many clever self-references to cinema in the movie, including the responses of the filmmakers while they watch Alex doing the climb. So in a brilliant way, what Alex is saying here is that he's not so affected by the movies, by the manipulation of images on a screen-- likewise he is not so affected by the Oscars, with all its pomp and circumstance. It's a sign of his intense authenticity, and a subtle (yet polite) critique of the whole Hollywood system.

Seriously hangry Alex Honnold. What a hero!

The most grounded and unaffected athlete I have ever come across. I am delighted for him and the entire crew of Free Solo for what was the best film ( not just documentary ) of the year.

After watching 'Free Solo', I have a whole new understanding and greater respect for climbers using fall protection...

This is so great! Alex is the ultimate badass and it’s been incredibly entertaining to watch him on the “Free Solo” press tour. He takes the questions like classic Alex with the added grace of practice over the years!

I love Alex! He's so honest!!! Great respect for this guy!

He's so damn real. Freaking love this guy.

Very well deserved Oscar and good and professional interview!!! I remember him in that disastrous Jimmy Kimmel's when despite the lot of stupid and irrelevant questions Alex remains humble and grounded. This guy is a unique human being, he is much more than a climber; he is a zen master, a pioneer. Great Alex Honnold!!!

congratulations to all of the crew and Alex!

“It’s hard to dream about the future when you’re so caught up in the present” - Alex Honnold

The juxtaposition here is amazing. Meaningless ego filled world and a guy with a meaningful life being humble.

Such a modest guy, never explicitly reveals that the secret to his success is *big balls.*

Respect. Really got his feet on the ground. Metaphorically, not so much physically!

Well much of the power and stability in climbing comes from the feet (:

This guy is so blunt and it’s hilarious!

This guy is sooooo down to earth and soooo humble. I'm truly inspired by how simple, yet amazing, he is.

literally just watched the documentary, just so blowed away how memorising it was... the high level of capability he has is insane, I love the way he came across in this interview you can tell that his true passion wasn't to make an film out of it... but only to pursue his passion & complete his childhood dream better questions could have been said but appreciate him being so chilled bout it all but I'm glad it won the Oscar highly deserves the recognition either way.

only reason i was paying attention to the oscars was for this moment congrats Alex and the team !!! :)

At first I thought my headphones were malfunctioning!

Love how genuine, humble and honest he is. It's all about the climb.

Watching Alex being interviewed in a tux is about as bizarre as it gets. I can only imagine what he's thinking as he answers the same questions over and over again. But he obviously takes it all with grace and good humor. Pure class.
