Alex Honnold: Live Skyscraper Climb with Wind and Crowd Reactions
Alex Honnold recently broke records with his live Netflix special, successfully climbing to the top of Taipei 101 in just one hour and 35 minutes. His reaction at the top? “Sick!” he said excitedly before snapping a selfie. Despite a few minor hiccups, like losing audio contact and his in-ear music soundtrack, the climb went smoothly overall.
As Honnold ascended the tower, he admitted to feeling a bit tired towards the end and mentioned how windy it was at the top. Thousands of Taipei residents on the ground and those inside Taipei 101 itself watched in awe, cheering and gasping at every step of the 1,667-foot climb. It was a thrilling experience for everyone involved.
