Alex Honnold makes the first free solos of the largest walls in North America. He scales 2,000 feet with only shoes and chalk bag—no rope, no safety, and no room for error.
Don’t sue us if you crap your pants. Apologies for linking 60 Minutes here but if you can bear the horrendous reporters it’s worth sticking with.

Great article on another free climber http://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/features/remembering-the-extraordinary-life-of-free-climber-michael-reardon-254208.html
Was forgetting to breath watching some of this. Burst out laughing at the end of the 60minutes video though, when they mentioned the sponsor. I’m so mature. 😛
Fucking hell. I did both b-lay and lead rock climbing in The Alps, always with some form of safety and I was absolutely shitting it at times. This guy is nuts. Completely crazy!
