There's slackliners...... and then there's Dean Potter...That feat, crossing to Lost Arrow Spire with 1200 feet of air under his twinkle toes, and untethered, is freaking mindblowing, and insanely incredibly crazy.

 

That's him, one of the few climbers in the world who free solo 5.12 and above, and also speed climb big walls.

 

He's done, with partners, both Yosemite's El Cap and Half Dome in a day...and each around the 3 hour mark....

I watched a vid of him soloing the nose of El cap. makes my climbing look quite feeble in comparison:cursing:

Always fancied a go but I'm not just gymnastic enough to pull any sort of tricks. Figure just walking back and forth could get tedious without anything inbetween. That video was intense though, I'll take a pass.

 

As for solo climbing ... there's no bad solo climbers is there?!
