At least in that case there was a man-made structure. You can at least predict what will come next. Honnold climbing a rock face is much less predictable. |

I'm always amazed by how many here are afraid of heights. 2000 feet up a sheer cliff hanging onto a knub the size of an Iphone isn't heights. I've climbed grain elevators. I've roofed tall barns. I can handle that. If I were teleported halfway up that mountain with climbing shoes, a bag full of chalk, and an intimate knowledge of the route, I would die. |

Others in this very thread have said it's their fear of heights that makes them nervous. I personally think it's badass, and videos like that don't bug me at all. (Also, grain elevators and tall barns aren't very tall.  )

Made me queezy. You could put me 3 ft below the "safe" point and I would find the bottom of that cliff quicker than Rosey O'Donnell could knock the bottom out of a half gallon of Haagen Dazs.
