    Loves sitting there and bragging, bragging, bragging. Such a narcissist, just absorbing the attention…no one can just do something , huh? It’s gotta be played back, forward…Really, so the fuck what. How many times does he say “I.” I bet when he sleeps at night, it’s me, me, me. There was a time these guys just did this to feed an inner fire, something burning inside a man. Now, it’s the end user he’s thinking this thru, for

    One giant climb for man,one stupendous climb for mankind,scared the daylights out of me,i was honestly relieved once he was done with that monster

    If you watch the documentary, you’ll die three times before the movie ends. This dude is the definition of “if we die we die”

    There is nothing conservative about it .. interesting to see how his brain calculates risk though😅

  16. @DJ_Go_Hard

    also remember it usually takes normal climbers a few days to get to the top dude soloed it in 4 hours

    i mean hes not wrong. people think that these giant feats of climbing by alex happened overnight but no. it took alot of preparation. 10 years worth. of climbing the same route until every hold is engrained in his brain to the point that he dreams about the different holds and sections in the climb. to the point where he doesnt make a single mistake (while using a rope) (which also adds to the weight and is an added obstacle ALTHOUGH SMALL). THATS when he is finally ready to really free solo something, especially something of that size and magnitude. cuz youre up there for a while aka hours which requires ALOT of grip STAMINA so you really need to be confident in your skills. thats real passion and dedication… and of course INSANITY lol

    That's some epic mental gymnastics. It's not conservative at all. The point is that El Cap is a really really hard climb. Even roped climbers die doing it occasionally. Doing it without a rope is absolutely insane. "Well I only took one fall" ok sure that fall would have been a death. One misstep, one slip, one miss judged foot hold, one crumbly piece of rock = game over. Free soloing is equal parts brave, stupid, suicidal and magical. But don't delude yourself into thinking that a ten year training for it is "conservative".

    It's funny. By trying to downplay how dangerous it is, people only talk about how actually dangerous it is. But if he had tried to hype it up as super dangerous and brag on himself, people would say exactly what he just said and downplay how dangerous it was.

  32. @truelidia

    theoretically yes, but some moves I can do on top rope and no way I’ll try it on lead high above the quick draw. Exposure is a massive factor

    Free soloing Al Cap is easy compared to convincing people that Alex wasn't recklessly risking his life

    if you just casually listen you can say yeah yeah , but if you think about it and stop for a second i mean WTF DUDE it boils down to my spine I can't even fathom it 🥶

    Let's be honest, Alex is pro-social. Meaning, he has the positive attributes of an anti-social individual. With being pro-social, he has some of the benefits which primarily include fearlessness. It's this fearlessness which allowed him to free-solo El Cap. When he says there were 1 or 2 places which he was "worried" about, most normal people would be scared to death. It takes extreme things to make Alex feel any sense of fear, and this is what allowed him to be successful on El Cap.
