A genuine madman. This was far more uncomfortable to watch than I expected. My hands were sweaty the entire time and when he was waving his hands at the top… nuts.

A great accomplishment from Alex. However the commentary and Netflix coverage was absolutely atrocious — to the point where I either had to mute it or turn the whole thing off. A bunch of complete nothing-burgers being repeated over and over again from two people with zero clue what they are talking about. I feel sorry for the woman on the panel who was an accomplished climber and got talked over by a WWE wrestler and a Youtuber. All (zero) style and zero substance. “The goosebumps are goosebumping.” Is an actual quote from the lead commentator. How insightful. Apparently they later dropped: “The superman of supermanning.” Boo. Hiss.

Alex Honnold is still in prime, And likes when he has a good time. He thought he would try, To scrape the sky, And give a tall building a climb.

While browsing on Netflix, I accidentally stumbled upon this documentary while watching something else. I decided to check it out, and even though I wasn’t watching it live, I found it super interesting. Before this, I honestly had no idea about “Free Solo” climbing. But within the first 10 minutes, I got completely hooked. I didn’t know anything about Alex Honnold beforehand. But once it started—with that preview clip—I got total goosebumps. Then he just started climbing. He was scaling…

I simply adore the simplicity here: man does extremely dangerous thing while you watch. Many people have suggested there’s a real ethical dilemma here given the non-zero chance the climber, legend Alex Honnold, dies on camera. But what is stupendous is that, frankly, when it’s Alex climbing, the outcome is never in doubt. If it can be climbed, the man will climb it. In the midst of so much social media gimmickry, computer generated whiz bangery, AI slop, and other technology-enhanced entertainment models, there’s room for one person doing what only a human being can do.

Its crazy that this didn’t get more attention. It was a fun live stream to watch. Maybe I am biased, I watch a lot of climbing

SKYSCRAPER LIVE Kritik Review (2026): Skyscraper Live ist ein ungewöhnliches Netflix-Live-Event, das Actionfilm, spektakuläre Stunts und die Atmosphäre eines großen Live-Spektakels miteinander verbindet. Statt auf eine klassische Kinoproduktion zu setzen, lebt das Format vor allem von der unmittelbaren Wirkung des Geschehens und dem Gefühl, dass die Ereignisse tatsächlich in diesem Moment stattfinden. Das Ergebnis ist ein unterhaltsames und technisch beeindruckendes Erlebnis, das jedoch nicht in allen Bereichen die Qualität eines regulären Actionfilms erreicht. Die größte Stärke des Films ist ohne…

I’m glad 40 year old Honnold got this payday, and for the universe of humans, this is unthinkable, but for him, it is no Free Solo…or the like.

Ok now do the Burj Khalifa. Fr tho holy shit that guy is crazy lmao but fr mad respect to him. I would never try something like this unless I actually wanted to kill myself. And in which case I’d probably pick an easier and faster way to do it 💀. The host was annoying at times like “again if you’re just joining us, Alex Honnold free soloing Taipei 101 without ropes.” Like girl I feel like if someone joins the…

Documentação ao vivo de uma escalada free solo. As narrativas ajudam a acompanhar o trajeto, mas ainda assim é cansativo de assistir. Escalada na natureza me parece mais interessante.

encountered a pair of russian speakers while on a walk today and didn’t say anything but afterwards practiced a bit while washing my face and realized that i could have performed a substantial amount of small talk if i had only remembered how to say good evening 🤨Anyway put on russian subtitles so that this would be educational 🤨in its presentation mostly vapid but sometimes the derangement is pushed so far that it becomes important. i dont care enough to…

My legs shake on the safe and secure balcony of a tall building. So watching Alex climb Taipei 101 was exhilarating. The commentary was quite insufferable. I can’t help but think Alex could palm my face and rip it clean off.

I got vertigo watching this. Alex’s climb is incredibly cool and the continuous comms issues between him and the crew on the ground are rly funny. Unfortunately the commentators kinda suck 🙁 and they are talking NON STOP. I felt the suspension and anxiety about it even though it happened three months ago and I knew what happened already which was v cool. A fun watch overall

So glad I didn’t see a man die live on Netflix – the Seth Rollins jump scare was also a pleasant surprise. Coast to Coast headbutt landed him in Taiwan.

Alex Honnold attempts to free solo the Taipei 101 skyscraper in Taiwan during a live broadcast on Netflix. American climber Alex Honnold adds another jaw dropping feat to a resume littered with them. His ascent of the 1,667 foot tower in Taipei, which is the eleventh tallest in the world was astounding. It is a shame that this achievement was subsumed by Netflix nonsense. The broadcasting was abysmal. Elle Duncan and Seth Rollins, in particular, offered nothing of value and…

well, I finally got around to watching it! I was super excited when this was in the news, because it was finally a story about Taiwan that actually highlighted its culture rather than its tenuous relationship with China. Now that I’ve actually seen the live footage, I can confidently say that this was a really cool climb. Overall I enjoyed watching it. I do wish the production value/ commentary had been as good as the actual substance of the climb,…

IMHO, Alex Honnold is def on the spectrum, and fuck is he so inspiring! The wrestling commentator was SO annoying, though.

I loved Free Solo and felt so tense while watching Alex. I felt the same way watching this, despite knowing that yes, he is fine and alive. I will watch this again, because Alex is inspiring. It was surprising to see how he has aged and how he has changed since Free Solo. It made me appreciate him more.

This is the second documentary I’ve seen about Alex Honnold, and this one left me a bit disappointed. After watching a spectacle like Free Solo, this just didn’t hit nearly as hard. The climb itself was exceptional, and Alex did his job perfectly. it’s just that once you’ve seen something as mind blowing as his ascent in Free Solo, it’s difficult for anything else to feel just as impressive. The technical side was horrible. Whoever came up with the idea…

Free Solo’yu izledikten sonra Alex’teki rahatlığı ve yaptığı şovları anlayabiliyorum, ama canlı yayının olayı sunma biçimini hiç beğenmedim, show business mantıkları o kadar klişe ve yapmacık ki bazı anlarda bir çeşit black mirror bölümünün gerçekleşmiş hali gibi hissettiriyor, yorumcular da tırmanışçı olan hariç çok boş, aynı yüzeysel bilgileri ve övgüleri tekrar etmekten başka bir şey yapmıyorlar, ayrıca yayında ve organizasyonda bariz sorunlar da var mesela Alex’in ses bağlantısı kesiliyor, ama kesilmesi iyi oluyor çünkü en sonda eşiyle konuştukları yerde sunucu araya giremiyor 🙂 açıkçası bu son kısımda Alex’in eşi ve ekiple olan gerçek iletişimini görmek çok daha iyi oldu

5 stars because it had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I like when somebody knows what he’s doing and is so chill about it. Doing it live is bold.

Je sais même pas quelle note mettre, c’est un mec qui grimpe. Je pense que j’aurai pu le faire aussi ou peut être que c’est comme l’histoire de faire atterrir un avion, néanmoins je sais faire de l’escalade mais je sais pas piloter un avion. J’adore cette tour elle a un super système de poids au centre de la tour pour éviter les dégâts des séismes

Shoutout to Alex Honnold but why was Seth Rollins on commentary and not a second climber? Feels like a weird choice by Netflix…

El hecho de verlo en vivo con un delay intencional en caso de que se caiga fue fascinante. Tuve que irme hasta el Santa Isabel a que me abran el orto porque lo tuve tensado los 4 días posteriores.

I was blown away watching this live on Netflix, but standing in Fuzhou Shan Park looking right up at Taipei 101, I am just in complete awe that he pulled this off. Such an incredible feat.

2.5 stars cus it’s not a movie in my mind but it was lwk scarier than free solo and he’s risking his life when he has a literal child and wife I think or at least gf but also not 5 stars cus no ones forcing him to do ts and it’s like so unnecessary idk still keeps my eyes stuck to the tv but mostly cus im scared for his life cus I watched live
