Alex Honnold Successfully Climbs Taipei 101 Skyscraper in 92 Minutes

ALEX HONNOLD SMILES FROM THE TOP OF TAIPEI 101 AFTER CLIMBING 1,776 FEET.

Free solo climbing wizard Alex Honnold has done it again. The man who was first to free solo El Capitan in Yosemite National Park has summited…err…climbed the tallest building in the world, Taipei 101, topping out at a dizzying 1,667 feet and 101 floors.

Honnold made it look easy, topping out after 02 minutes. His post-climb interview seemed to confirm this as he reported nothing unexpected and that everything went as planned.

“It’s amazing,” he beamed. “I’m sure I’ll be glowing for days.” He then  made a beeline for the elevators with his wife for a 60-second ride to the ground.

Reports indicate Honnold was paid $500,000 US by Netflix,
