Since you asked:

Saw “Free Solo” and I was so impressed with the incredibly pure focus of Alex Honnold’s life. Obviously, he had to have 100% focus on his climbing. He could not afford the luxury of thinking one move ahead. 

But also he lived in his van. When he used someone’s shower, he washed his clothes with his feet stomping on them like they were grapes. He cooked one pot meals with eggs, chili, spinach and cheese and ate it out of that pot. 

Sure, when he got the hot but ditzy blonde girlfriend - who spaced out and dropped him from 30 feet while belaying him - life became more complicated buying a house and a refrigerator. (As things become when you adopt a hot ditzy girlfriend who simply forgets to check that his rope had run out)

Boiling life down to its essence is how Alex was able to achieve the feat of performing a climb that, anything less than an Olympic gold medal caliber performance, would have killed him.

The survival rate for free climbers is pretty much 0%. Let’s hope Alex beats that. 

But he might have to lose the dumb blonde.
