    Free Solo: The Greatest Athletic Achievement of All Time?
    I am sweating watching this award winning documentary.

    Professional rock climber Alex Honnold conquered the first ever free solo (climb without any ropes or anything) of El Capitan, a 3000 feet rock slab at Yosemite Park.

    In a sport of inches... One tiny mistake = death.

    Anybody else see this? Is there anything that can even compare to this feat?
