Honnold is undoubtedly an incredible climber - but what I always think about is the ‘what if’s?’. An unexpected gust of wind, or a sudden muscle spasm/cramp when 1,000ft up - game over.
My son climbs, but though he admires Honnold he has said he’d never free solo in the same way - for which I’m very grateful. Mind you, he’s planning his second tattoo - even though he assured me his first was going to be the only one he’d ever have… 
Thanks. That was the gif I needed to express the huge amount of ‘nopery’ I felt about this.
a miked camera drone? What were you hoping to capture?
Death screams? Which would mean more page views!
His brave descent into aseptic water, thanking equipment sponsors during their final moments?
Was going to grow spare organs in that lake anyhow; local hospital pride in how to code most emergencies of that lake makes them a major Weibo Xtreme WePay sponsor.
Drones aren’t above a little robot pride, wanted to capture any easter eggs.
Gotta think of that Mishima character in Air Master (saves his crush, crushes bike controlling descent.)
‘Bikers’ ride Harleys and wear leather. These folks are cyclists.
There was this little muddy track along the yarra river, and of course I tried to ride it on my first mountain bike. The back wheel slid first, then the front, then it was about three metres down into the water. A couple in a row boat had to rescue me.
One the upside, that bike floated really well.
