omg did u see alex honnold's climb? i mean physically insane! like 1,667 ft no rope no biggie but seriously the mental toughness is insane he talked about taking deep breaths and composing himself before starting the climb that's some serious prep work going on what a legend!

I gotta say, Alex Honnold is like a superhero or something! Climbing Taipei 101 without a rope? That's insane! I've seen him do some crazy stuff before, but this takes the cake. You can tell he's put in so much prep and training for that moment. I love how he just takes his time, too - it's all about being present and not rushing into things. I mean, who needs to get to the top quickly when you can take it all in and enjoy the view? The fact that he didn't feel pressured or stressed out is really admirable. It's a great reminder to slow down and appreciate the little things (or in this case, the big views!)

OMG 1st time I heard of Alex Honnold ! So inspiring seeing him conquer Taipei 101 without a rope. I mean, I'm no climber but even I'd be freaking out up there . But seriously, it's crazy to think he trained for this and had that mindset "just hanging in one space"... makes me wanna try rock climbing or something . Did he do a lot of prep before the climb? And what was going through his mind when he started

what's next for this guy? like, does he think the views are gonna make up for the exhaustion ? and don't even get me started on the harness thing, didn't he know that was a no-go zone during the climb?! still impressed by his physicality tho, gotta respect the training.
