9:40

Alex Honnold 4ft off the ground: this is scary. You're just kinda high
Alex Honnold 7000ft off the ground: meh

Alex is a fantastic commentator. He's funny and brilliant, he's also extremely competent and he has such a deep and soothing voice. Too bad is also a super pro and he has a busy schedule...

[InterwovenElements]

Matt's commentary during Alex's climb was so funny xD

[clairebivore]

As a lead climber who is terrified of bouldering falls, hearing Alex Honnold say that the boulder move looks dangerous was extremely validating!

"Yeah... that's my shin" 😂

[Baahaa]

Finally a climber who says he doesn't like people watching him climb. Thanks Alex, you made my day. Same for me! Greetings from Germany :)

[andrewbrinson]

Matt I really hope you and Alex can commentate together at the Olympics. That would be legendary! Y'all have good chemistry and humor! Do you think that's in the cards?

Also it might be more appropriate to call Alex the most prolific climber in the world. I suspect that title would sit better with him but I could be wrong.

I laughed when Alex turned around and Matt immediately went into commentary mode.

Alex pointing out the "total waste of time" for Orianne to go trad climbing 🤣 man's honesty cuts on a different level haha

[PamStucky]

*Loved* hearing Alex in the commentary booth! 🙌🏻

[MiguelClimbs]

Thanks for all the coverage! Tons of hard work. Alex is hilarious 😂

"It's kind of high" -Guy who free solos 3000 ft big wall

[ElectorNiklas]

That announcer's voice is so great. And combined with Alex's commentary, quite good show

[Spint]

Watching the girls climb is always such a treat as their boulders are often super techy and really force them to rack their brains and stretch their capabilities. Really shows off their incredible capabilities as climbers. :D

[plavyn]

When the free solo guy says “this looks dangerous”, you know you have issues

The womens finals last night was great. Super close until the end. Huge win for grossman on a tweaked knee, though I was scared for her trying to get the zone on the slab problem, having to land on the hurt leg

When can we see Janja doing men’s boulders?

[WutTheFink]

This behind the scenes insight is insanely cool
