Episode 54 - Free Solo

Documenteers: The Documentary Podcast - A podcast by Bob Sham & Friends

Categories:

You better get free for Episode 54. Free Solo that is. I apologize for those first two sentences. The 30 for 30s won't return until early next year, but in this episode Bob Sham and Drew talk about one of the most dangerous sports out there. Drew and Bob went to the local theater to watch Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin's new documentary "Free Solo". Alex Honnold may not emote very much, but he climbs like Spider-Man. His big dream is to free solo climb the face of El Capitan in Yosemite. Free Solo means no ropes, no buddies, no safety equipment. No one has scaled this rock without safety equipment, and to pro climbers it's scary as hell. Will Alex accomplish this extreme physical test, or will he fall to his death in the worst North Face commercial ever? Drew and Bob take us through all the tension. Check to see if this flick is available at your local independent movie theater. Kick rocks and Keep on Doccin'®.
