If he succeeds, it will mark the largest wall he, or anyone else, for that matter, has ascended without any kind of equipment.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

no doubt a very risky and difficult task, but a stupid spider would do it effortlessly. submitted by Tassos on May 9, 2019, 1:35pm This idiot monkey risked his young life 1000 times trying to climb this vertical rock in 3 hours and change. While I am in awe of his ability, a STUPID SPIDER would do it totally effortlessly. So what is the STUPID POINT of humans trying to do what even INSECTS do 1,000 times better and risk-free?

Mesmerizing submitted by hduke on June 22, 2019, 11:31am This documentary is a mesmerizing and awe-inducing chronicle of one man's quest to push the boundaries of what is humanly possible. Thoroughly impressive, potentially nausea-inducing, and well worth the two hour watch time.
