How right you are, Alex has a fluid vocabulary, he thinks in a nanosecond starts his sentences, explains his meaning and rounds off his sentence. He has an uncritical, humble and engaged personality. He listens intently…. it is hard to actively listen, it requires an interest in another’s thoughts, patience to know for how long and sometimes the wisdom not to add anything from your own experience on another persons time. Unfortunately the interviewer is floundering in unpreparedness, stuck in financial comparisons, whilst Alex is trying to surf over the top to help him out. What I have seen and heard from Alex leads me to view him as one of life’s true gentlemen. Dictionary meaning; “A gentleman possesses a strong work ethic. He takes great pride in his work and strives to give his very best every day. He is reliable, dedicated, self-disciplined, humble and a team player. He leads and is led well” I am grateful for finding Alex, his story, his achievements and the clear understanding that he is here for a purpose other than financial gain which brings him great joy in his life. I am 78, still learning from listening, especially to our young people who are so inspiring. Thank you Alex 🧗

Bensinger was just lifting weights at your average commercial gym, getting his cheat reps in for his twelve sets of bicep curls, when someone approached him and said, "Hey, how about I pay you to interview Alex Honnold?" Ben, hesitant for his awkward posturing and previous miss of social queues, took out his earbuds and asked, "Who is Alex Mcdonalds?" No, the expression of the bewildered man's face suggested, "I want to pay you to interview Alex Honnold, a world-class climber." Bensinger in pure confusion glanced around the room as if he were being goated out by a series of hidden cameras before accepting the statement with his most genuine belief. "Okay," he said aloud. Later that afternoon, after having showered and put on his finest collared cotton shirt from the local commercial-chain sporting goods store, Bensinger sat across from Honnold in vexed perplexion, "why am I interviewing this homeless man," he thought.

Trying to turn that two seconds in time into a whole story is hardly skilled; it's just crap writing. And "accepting the statement with his most genuine belief" ??

Daniel Catalan this dude has a great life for anyone who has even the slightest interest in climbing. It’s only a hobby of mine but to trade what I do for what Honnold does would be amazing, to travel with friends and climb all over the US, and other places in the world, that would be truly amazing. The beauty of climbing comes from the challenge and also because he’s doing it all outdoors, the views from the top across valleys and canyons would be truly awesome.

Alex has a very sober perspective on life. He knew what made him happy, so he found a way to maximize that without perishing. Now that he happens to make more money than he needs, he saves enough of the excess to ensure he can continue to do what makes him happy in the future, and the rest he donates to charity.

This interviewer needs to find a new job.

mushroom Assassin, Honnold brought the nfl players in as a comparison and the interviewer rightly pointed out some key relative differences with an nfl player. One must think about relative differences when making income and industry comparison. Furthermore, being able to climb as much as i realized Honnold must (in order to have made his monumental achievement) requires financing one way or the other: bringing this up in an interview is important and relevant. What a childish comment you made. Once we reach adulthood our passions that we are actively pursuing (that may or may not generate money for us) must be financed via something. Only fools think that the money issue is not to be addressed. There's no tooth fairy after 10yrs of age. (and 10 is pushing it) Cue angelic harp music: "climbing isn't about possessions, it's about oneness with nature" yada, yada, bullshit.

Oddly probing and innapropriate question that honnold responds to with opennes and genuineness. In that sense I think its actually a good interview because it allows honnold to show his true nature. True climbers just want to climb, the rest of the details don't matter as much. I love how he's even self aware enough to recognize that free soloing is almost a kind of gimmick that allows him to continue supporting his lifestyle. I think he's sells himself short though, its not technically hard, but it is mentally extremely difficult. Love how caldwell has the same sense of humbleness about the dawn wall, he says "its not that dangerous" (which for someone like him its not), in the same way that honnold says that free soloing is "not that hard".

Alex's passion for climbing is indeed inspiring.

Alex is really speaking out of my soul. There is no need for all the stuff we can by and even dont use. Reduced to the limit. Thats right and honest. Surely everyone has his own limit but usually we need one third of the things we have.

Consumerism conditions us to be anxious with feelings of content. We are tought that feelings of content is unsustainable, because it leads to stagnation in an environment of growth, making us fall behind. We are tought to never allow happiness to catch up with us, so that we keep moving forward.

this guy is pure wisdom...

Alex is the best the sport has ever seen and he is also a down to earth dude.

ALEX is a LEGEND inside and out!!!

This guy is so authentic 🌞

Inspiring. He's my hero. 👍

damn, thats passion!! To freely give away the knowledge you love so much!!

As much as you all are hating on the interviewer, it just sheds some light on two polar opposite life perspectives. I don’t think the interviewer is bad at his job, he actually opened up dialogue that is really useful to my personal growth, because I look up to alex honnold and was very interested on his perspective about finances. Alex is a pioneer, the interviewer is just trying to make sense of everything. Thank you guys both for making this interview possible

Whenever I need a good laugh I come to this video

Graham's best pick-up line: "So...what do you do?"

So many comments on this vid... but has anyone even noticed the interviewer maybe wasn’t really that great?

A beautiful soul.
