Gives me the willies just to watch it! Looks like if you slip on some of those sections, there's no recovering, just a plummet. Crazy. Great athlete too - that's a lot of elevation gain in an amazingly short time.

To be clear, he did not do an "enchainement", i.e. climb them one right after the other, correct? But he owns the speed climbing record on each one individually?

Great video. Thanks for posting this.

And they think Dwight Howard is Superman.
