I don't see any other such physically and mentally exhausting task, where an error means instant death, so he had to beat that giant of a wall and that giant of fear in himself, beating the physics outside and the biology of fear inside, I think that's the greatest sporting achievement ever accomplished.

@@TimesUp777 Heart surgeries are amazing achievements and they take place every day now. No one in the world has achieved what Alex Honnold has. One does not diminish the other. We are not in a competition here -- simply admiring extraordinary human achievement. Only those who have been a few dozen feet on a vertical slab without a rope could fully appreciate what Alex achieved.

Heart surgery is the culmination of millions of lab work hours laid down by a countless army of research scientists and surgeons over a couple of centuries. Alex’s feat would be akin to someone doing heart transplants with just his hands and surgical shoes

The full climb should have been an extra feature on the Free Solo DVD. Such a shame they only included about 20 minutes of the climb in the movie. All that great footage and we'll never get to see it all. Same with Half Dome.

The camera crews were only set up at specific spots. They filmed the spots where he was most likely to fall.
People like Alex are on another level. The dedication, concentration, commitment the list goes on
This guy is the poster child for man with the biggest balls. The climb is not even a matter of him fearing death, as it is more of him conquering his limits.
What a remarkable achievement - to have done something that no other person has ever done, something that no other person will likely do again, probably something that no other person had ever dreamed possible. Truly amazing.

5:35 that's the normal route where regular people use to get to the top. And if u think it's safe, there's an accident sometime ago after honnold free soloing the wall, even with the safety of that normal route has, it's still deadly, and as sad as it is, there's life at loss on that accident. So, people saying this man feat is one of the greatest achievement in human kind is an appropriate word, i am just shocked that there are lot of people who still don't know that this man exist and haven't watch the documentary film. Even if i already know he is survived, my heart just pounding watching he climbed the wall, can't imagine the documentary crew emotions, filming his friend on a documentary and knowing a mistake means death. Just kudos to all of them.
This guy is in a special category. He knows his limitations (and those limitations are at a super high level of ability) and his quest is about life, and not death.

People should realize that he doesn't just free solo walls, he climbs them multiple times first, with safety lines, and maps out the best possible route to then free solo when he's confident and ready. A lot of people think that he just blindly climbs walls without preparing or mapping his routes. He's *NOT* a dummy.

I've been following Alex Honnold for a long time, and I'm always impressed with his achievement, he's incredible
That moment where he began to tire while doubting whether the wall would prevent his right toe from slipping near the top of Half Dome is the stuff nightmares are made of. It's amazing, what he's done. I hope he quits while he is ahead.

Absolutely incredible! After rock and ice climbing with a friend a few times at Ice Fest in MI and rocks at Red Rock in NV and Kentucky I have so much respect for climbers, you guys are freaking awesome. I'll keep doing it any chance I can, so much fun.
More than your amazing climbing, you doing this alone, including your consistent writing, has really inspired me. Thank you.
'...that kind of concentration for that amount of time and the penalty being certain death.' Alex Honnold is something else.
this video is like the summary of all the videos of alex that I've already seen ... great stuff! 😂
Amazing! My hands were sweating like a mofo watching this, lol...
Alex is a composer, composed his route then orchestrated it.
Alex. If you ever see this, please never do anything like that again. You got nothing left to prove. Your an awesome dude and you inspire alot of people. Time to just kick back with FREE SOLO KING status. I still can't believe this was actually done. SUPER HUMAN HONNOLD
He’s just wired differently. Amazing what he does.
A demonstration of commitment to the seemingly impossible task that is broken down into small individual steps becomes possible. Intricate planning and execution make it possible.
Congratulations for the hard training, perseverance and positive attitude. Thank you for being in direct contact with the most extreme nature.
A zen master of rockclimbing everything is perfect ever move .

this is the ultimate and extremus sport if it is called at all. .

When I listen to what your going through in the sketchy areas, i start to get sick to my stomach! And iam only imagining iam in your shoes!! What you do is unbelievable and unimaginable to almost the entire world population!
Nicely done, thanks!!
Wow !!! I am speechless .Bravo
Hello young Master...so glad and grateful you are here with us... Namaste
Breathtaking!
the king of free solo !!!
No doubt. I’m sorry, there is no human equivalent to that experience. I watch it agape. That kind of mind is just amazing
Awesome video man ,
Preparation is everything!
Good compilation 👊🏻
Its a testimony of what humans are capable of doing with a lot of training, a pure mindest and focusing on being succesful inestead of fear which would consume much energy and limits your way to a goal
The most inspiring thing I’ve seen in this world I want to take this shit and apply it to everything in my life
Just listening to the details makes my palms sweaty
One of the best KZread videos I’ve ever seen.
That’s fun watching someone climb on fast forward!
Amazing Alex.
OMG,you terrify me. Like pure terror. Well done.

Awesome Achievement, Congrats.
Truly amazing!

How to reach such level? I somehow can comprehend the physical performance (somehow), but I can't fathom the mental one. How to be so focused as to not make any single mistake, while your whole life depends on the friction between your fingertips and a tiny surface of a rock? And I understand even less how to overcome the fear of falling, imagining that your life may end in an hour, a few minutes or a handful of seconds from now. Mastery is not the right term. There is no word for it. Immense respect.
He makes the climb look like a 'walk in the park'. Amazing achievement.
LEGENDARY.
