Honestly, I'm a bit disgusted with North Face for turning Alex Honnold into a TV show. Muscles tear, joints pop, rock breaks. Everyone at the crags knows how the story ends
and it won't have anything to do with skill. This is a wildly
impressive accomplishment and one you can ponder the next time you're on
an NYC subway and see 500 'bros' wearing North Face fleeces.
Nonetheless, SkySight did an amazing job capturing some of this footage.
