Free Solo is airing this Sunday, March 3 at 9/8c. Have you watched yet?

Alex “ Drive Safe” Honnold

I'm not a climber but this movie inspired me so much. Alex is an inspiration.

This guy is super human, I can't grasp the mental and physical determination required to do what he did, I stood at the foot of el cap 3 years ago on holiday and was overawed by it, it truly is astounding

This has to be the most powerful scene in the film for me. This shows the gravity of the situation and lifts this achievement above the immeasurable feat of scaling El Cap, but also the impact it has on all of those involved. What a film.

This film is an achievement on so many levels. Although it won for Oscar documentary, it could stand up as Best Picture easily. There is no film like this and there may never be another one for a long time. Alex's achievement is monumental but so was the filming and story-telling. It has lifted the standard for documentary - a great win for this category of film. We need more documentary and less superhero movies.

Did he really say "drive safe" ??!! loool

Incredible, humble, strong, and definitely funny person You are Alex .... you are incredibly Blessed .... You live a Long life there, and Thank You for sharing Your adventurous life. Congrats to You. J.T. 🙏

That's why people from this climbing/outdoor/mountaineer society are calm, modest, philosophical...everything can change in a blink of an eye and they are all very well aware of that. Can't wait for the premiere this sunday.

He couldn't stand up to hug her good bye because of the shear weight of his ginormous balls.

it shows how much one person can put it all on the line for something they love..that's true conviction, with a true sense of finality. great doc'rock'umentary.

if you watched the movie do you know how she talks about how alex is like bad about like putting how he feels into words and saying i love you and then after he climbed el cap he called her and he said i love you idk that was adorable i loved it

I watched it last night and I'm still in Awe. Alex is a freaking alien. Congrats on a well deserved Oscar win.

Why can't Hollywood actors with no talent be as humble as this guy. Alex is a great ambassador to the human race. Live long and keep making great memories..Respect

I love Alex Honnold. Love watch his videos. He is an inspiration. God bless him🙏

I love that he has a girlfriend now. Years back, I remember reading about how he lived alone in his van or with a homeless dude

Love how Alex is the most chill one

Great movie. If you get the chance to see it, take it.

*_I love watching these peoples who go to their full potential!!_* 🔥

He is a living legend in more then one way.

I have enormous respect for Alex but I could never put my wife through the torture of not knowing if I'm comming back alive or am I falling to my death that day.

Just so glad that hes alive...and history is made...Alex , u r such an inspirational person not bcos of ur achievement but oso bcos or ur humblenesss and big heart..of cos congrats to the team that made this history available for view to the entire world...on top of the whole 'WHAT IF' anxiety..to be able to produce wat i must say the best climbing documentary film ever...awesome respect all the way frm singapore!

This guy is incredible! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

while acknowledging his amazing achievements, I can't help but feel sorry for her... I can't imagine loving and dreaming of building a life with a person who'd risk their life like this. In the movie he tells her he feels no obligation to quit taking these risks just because she's in his life. I understand his passion and his need to do this, and that it's his choice and also her choice to be with him. but it's heartbreaking to see and to think he doesn't value her and her love as much as he values reaching goals.

Lol I would've had some high powered binoculars and been sneaking the view from a distance. I love watching him climb. He is so zen.

Ugh. She's so amazing and beautiful. I watch random interviews and appearances of Alex, and almost every one he makes it a point to mention how struck he was when he finally got to see this stuff, her reaction, in particular. And, it being so fresh in their relatively early relationship at this point, especially compared against his life-long goal that the whole documentary is about, it's understandable. Even if it is difficult to watch. Clearly he's doing something right, they're still together to this day. 👍

Alex deserves to be surrounded by people who appreciate and understand is immense dedication to his craft and therefore understand the risk, and stop exacerbating consequences to actions that haven’t yet occurred.

Lots of preparation and dedication. Mad respect to Alex!

one of the best films i have ever watched

He is the GOAT

BEST MOVIE OF 2018 BY A MILE

"Okay, drive safe."

Alex is from an other world 💪🏼😉 absolutely amazing 👍🏻🎥 congrats for the OSCAR

Watched it last night... I LOVE IT

Watched it at least 5 times

Purchased it right away in Digital. Great Film👍

The few things I REALLY want to know more than anything are: a)What went through Alex's mind when he all of a sudden came across a unicorn on his ascent? b) What, if anything, did they all say to each other? c) What did the unicorn guy and his buddy think and say to each other after Alex strolled through their camp? Has anyone even found or interviewed those 2 guys? Anyone know? I'm literally dying to find all this out and I have a feeling that many who saw this awesome film are wondering the same thing too.

The true love she has for him is something you don’t see as much these days!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

Uncle Bobby Kamps had a VW Van and lived to climb like Alex. Love this!

The best movie I've ever seen! Inspiration and motivation for life. Thanks Alex, thanks National Geographic!

What a beast!! Amazing

finger pull ups, and he's repping them out, this guy is something else.

Btw I love that van actually

Desde España mi mas sincera felicitación, pero por Dios no lo intentes mas, te has dado cuenta de lo que te juegas. Siempre hay que tener claro que puedes tener imprevistos . Un saludo

Amazing achievements ... And I know it will fall upon deaf ears but I so wish Alex could just stop now and enjoy what he has already accomplished! ... Would hate for him to get hurt !!!

congrats on the Oscar Alex Honnold!

makes me wanna start climbing again, but i need to slim down first, that is more than a difficult task😂😂😂

Free solo.. no rope for climbing.. i learned new words today.. Nice

Scrolled down for the giant balls comments and I'm not disappointed

If he died, we'd all come to this video in our millions to see the last moments before Alex's death. Pretty wild to think about. I wonder how many times out of 100 he falls? 10? 5? 30? 0.11111?

“ call 911 “ yeah to pick up the pieces of his body after he fall from 800 meters

What he does is truly based on genetics with his unusually large hands which allows him super grip strength. Even the most experienced & talented climbers would love to free climb like Alex but they know physically their grip strength just can’t reach Alex’s grip level no matter how much they try and strengthen their hands

Cool van bro!

I used to be a competitive surfer at the high amateur to low professional level. I gave up competing and advancing in more dangerous surf, because of the possibility of harm to my family. If it was just me, I probably had the balls to advance, but I gave it up. I'll never know if it was the correct decision.

Sometimes you gotta do the risky to shape tou life better.This will give him credit for bravery,strenght,concentration.

Great

Coitada, está com o coração nas mãos, é natural, porque ao ver-se esta aventura ficamos sem fôlego e respiração!!

Support the movie, go see it!

Will it be available for purchase on iTunes in sweden any time soon?

Goot video

Hello from Albuquerque New Mexico

AH is the next phase of The Matrix. Soon they will allow us all to do this. AH is the reveal.

I couldn’t watch entirely! When you’ll release here, the full movie?

This is the equivalent of base jumping without a parachute

I love this I watched it several times since dvr'ing it sunday and see more and more each time I watch it. Well done well done congrats to everyone involved. Revealing aspects of Honnold's psyche emerged in the scene where Alex basically says that anyone can be happy what good get's done from being happy, life is all about performance. Juxtapose this to the scene where Tommy asks alex if he ever puts in his journal " I saw a beautiful juniper tree". Alex has accomplished the impossible feat and I hope he can direct his energy in obsessive fashion to the many other aspects of life to be had. I have no doubt that free soloing is pure exhilaration, but this movie highlights the many others who love alex and want to see him live and pass on his knowledge and caring to others.

I bet there will be a surplus of people who fall off that wall this year trying to be like this guy.

He does it for his dad

Feel for his Mom.

"Drive safe"

Alex “just do it” Hannold

That goal was there before you were in his life.

Cool

drive safe

skill was on his side

Now he should try to climb it without using any invisible ropes. :-D

Does this sport have an official logo? If not then Alex should be the face the logo🙌

But can he do it blindfolded?

congratulations on your oscar alex, you so deserve it.

"9-1-1 what is your emergency?" "Uh... a climber just turned into a meat-bomb, but like imagine if you ran 150 pounds of beef over a cheese-grater, then dropped it off the Eiffel Tower... onto broken rocks?" "Do you need an ambulance?" "N-n-n-not as such, no. More a mop and a dustpan?"

Historical documentary as it is, but can you imagine what an incredible documentary it would have been if he fell.

still wondering how did/does Sanni has all that strength and perseverance.

Dudes forearms look like popeyes

His girlfriend bothered me throughout the entire movie, seemed to only create issues for Alex.

Wow nice arms

The reason he free solos is...... He didn't like the bulge when he had a harness on.

Hi

apakah di dalam pikiran mereka tidak ada rasa khawatir ketika situasi menjadi tak terbayangkan seperti tangan lepas akhirnya jatuh?

Ma arrivano gli ordini fatti?? I'm waiting for my books ordered 2 mounths ago!!! I paid with my master card. The payment was ok for his bank.

Sanni is the villain of the movie. Alex is a free spirit come and go as i please person and she wants to domesticate him and its obvious he is uncomfortable with it.

3:07. Erich Fromm said when we cry it is always because we're feeling sorry for ourselves. Whatever the situation, we relate it back to ourselves. Weird sort of egotistical empathy.

It’s a totally crazy goal for you, not for him.

Of course she drives a Subaru Outback.... 😑

I read he used Spider Chalk on his climb

Can literally climb mountains with his bare hands for hours on end but can’t get out of bed to give his girlfriend a proper send off. Still one cool dude!!

Its all fun and games untill a rock that he's holding breaks

why is he doing it? its totally crazy goal. thats it. its Crazy, men will be men

اللغة 🔹العربية🔹موجودة طبعًا

Omg, so boring without his girlfriend who drives a car and didn't climb a 3000 feet vertical wall *EDIT*: To all of you who don't really get what this comment implies. Watch the speech when Alex won in the oscars

So they don’t put a net to catch him at least
