    I'm not too much on round-d-rounds, but I love me some road racing.

    I think this belongs here. Sport doesn't have to be competitive.

    Alex Honnold's extraordinary solo (meaning: no ropes or safety equipment of any kind) ascent of the 3,600 foot vertical granite wall El Capitan, in Yosemite National Park.

    He did it in a touch under 4 hours. The very first time it was ever climbed, back in 1958, it took a roped team of the best climbers in their generation 45 days over a period of 18 months.

    The camera team, multiply suspended from ropes not far from him as he climbed, were genuinely concerned they might be filming his death. In the film, one professional climbing cameraman, with his feet safe on the ground in the meadow below, can be seen turning his head away, quite unable to watch.

    It's been hailed as the most extraordinary and exceptional athletic feat by any human, in all time.

    Perfection or die.

    World-class climbers were almost speechless in their reaction. "Unrelatable." "Mind-bending." "So far out in front of conventional reality." "Terrifying." "Incomprehensible."

    The documentary, which won a well-deserved Oscar, is kind of hard to sit through: even when you know he was successful.

    The film is here:
    And this is the two-and-a-half minute trailer... watch if you dare!



    Just one of the images, a terrifying sight for mere mortals:

    Agreed, and in the same light:
