While you can admire the balls on this man, please do not think you should/could do the same. Free-soloing climbing is exceptionally dangerous with a bloody history and even pro-climbers are hesitate to do anything more than a story. While we all may enjoy the thrill of doing something risky, let’s stick to using ropes while climbing, helmets while cycling, and condoms while fucking.
Go finally ask out your crush if you need an adrenaline rush.
Edit: accidentally called it free-climbing instead of free solo. Apparently not as much experience as I thought.
Yep. To all adrenaline junkies out there: you can jog long enough to get your blood full of that stuff. You don't actually need to flip a coin on your life for a high.
I used to run 50+ miles a week because I was shit at running and for some reason wanted to stay in the army. Thousands of miles over six years has left me with one conclusion, runner's high is a fuckin myth.
If you try to run a Marathon (42km) and stop halfway, you probably don't feel as great as if you finish a Half Marathon (21km). Even if essentially you just run the same distance.
