If I train for several months I think I can watch this.

[Kwigs_kun]

You know what's crazy? Everybody watching this knows that he makes it. He's fine. It's a success. The worry is over. Yet it's still impossible to watch and not be terrified.

[NatGeo]

We are thrilled that Free Solo has received the Oscar for Best Documentary Feature! Thank you to everyone for the support and for being inspired by Alex's journey as much as we were. Free Solo is airing this Sunday, March 3 at 9/8c.

I’m calling it: this will NEVER be repeated by another human being.
The combination of sheer talent, tenacity, ambition, opportunity and fearlessness I don’t think will ever come together quite like this again.

*Watched it last night..I don't know anything about climbing, but I know this is one of the most beautiful, intense, engrossing and terrifying documentaries ever made.*

[WillyFoxx]

this is out of this world. seriously. I'm a climber, i tried free solo. I have been watching Alex for yeears. And still, can't believe a human being is so tremendously talented and brave. Talk about superhumans...

1:51 can we just take a moment to acknowledge how open minded and beautiful his mother is for being able to support her son like that!!!

[specialedday]

I have no idea why I get so emotional watching this documentary, especially his climb. It brings tears to my eyes and a great sense of awe whenever I watch it. In my humble opinion, I believe this is one of the best documentaries in existence.

[wanglin]

In theater this FALL. that is ominous.

[Mstfkmbr]

I'm gonna be watching this with my chalk bag

[-_Nuke_-]

I'm going to watch this lying down touching the ground the entire time...

[zthermo]

I climbed on my roof I quickly climbed down, it was amazing.

[TheBlackJewelz]

Probably the greatest physical feat of all time.

Of. All. Time.

[SUVRVing]

I'm excited about how terrified I'll be while watching this.

[sdm]

Imagine after all that climbing the camera guy said *"OOPS, forgot to press record..."*

Just saw this tonight in a packed theatre in Toronto and it blew my mind. Seriously one of the most exciting documentaries I've ever witnessed. Utterly thrilling and the story is brilliantly well told. The filmmakers and Alex did an incredible job. Just blown away. Really glad I saw it on a big screen as the scenery is utterly gorgeous. The entire theatre was so on edge and you could hear everyone holding their breath during the best bits. So good!!

[dieyoung]

Just saw the movie. Never before have I watched on the big screen a human feat of this magnitude. This movie will have you on the edge of your seat. Thank you Alex for pushing the envelope. This movie will motivate thousands to do something amazing.

[GuppyPal]

I saw this last night. Thought it was fantastic. It was super interesting to see a portrait of Alex Honnold and his psyche, and the climbing scenes were so frightening and severe they were emotional and difficult to watch even knowing he made it. Wow. Congratulations to Alex and everyone involved with the film. And Alex, please don't try to top this. You've done it. You're the best. This really IS good enough.

Some game developer should totally make a VR free solo game with all climbs like El Cap laser scanned. Let us mere mortals get a taste of what Alex experiences!
