"FreeSolo" is an appalling movie. Period. Every once in a while a friend sees the movie and asks me about my opinion. So here it is. Plain and simple: As a climber I find it disgusting. The fact it is the representation of the sport in popular media is a disaster.
A man diagnosed with neurological problem plays a Russian Roulette instead of seeking treatment and we glorify this behavior? Something is wrong with us. Incidentally, he's also very prominent in a certain sport so his Russian Roulette is a bit more elaborate. But nothing more.

If you wish to see a good climbing movie, one which illustrates how one can use sport as helpful treatment, how it develops friendship and how the drama is about making the impossible you should watch 'Dawn Wall'

Hannold is not the only one doing this. There are more of his kind. Do you think they all suffer neurological problems and do not get treatment? Why is this a Russian Roulette but other extreme sports are not?

There aren't much of his kind (and their life expectancy is quite short), so generalizong is difficult. Anyway, I consider extreme thrill seeking on the verge of suicide as a problem. Regardless of the sport.
