Documenting Alex Honnold’s climb of a 2,000-foot sheer cliff with no rope
Remember this photo of Alex Honnold on a narrow ledge along the face of Half-dome in Yosemite?
Well, here’s an insane 23-minute documentary about him climbing that wall as well as other climbs he’s done…

Dude… I think this is AWESOME. Scary, but awesome! It impressed me, buddy!
