Surrounding by an amazing landscape in Bali climbing peacefully above the Indian Ocean at alila Uluwatu . An invitation for quietness and meditation in a very relaxing environment. #bali #uluwatu #relaxation #mindset #yoga #challenge #climbing #climbinginspiration

Quite destroyed after climbing up & down the 220m Gt international tower in Makati Philippines in March 2024 . if you have watched the entire video you can see it at the end and my 40h custody in a big dirtyness and in the middle of thousand of cockroaches posed me a bit of issues . #climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #reslience #climbinginspiration #mindset #escalada
From top to bottom . Climbing back the Burj khalifa at the age of 61 years old was never in my agenda and I have had that privilege to climb it back but this time with my young friend and urban climber @alexis.landot . However it is a very long ascent that took us 9hours and we have benefited at the top an extraordinary sunset with absolutely no wind that did allow us to spend one hour up there enjoying this amazing sight of Dubai but moreover the desert , the sun and the ocean . #climbing #burjkhalifa #dubai #challenge #adventure #mindset #climbinginspiration #escalade @hugohealy @dubai__4567 @emmawood3 @xdubai @dubai____official
why I got stuck two meters below the top of the Gt tower in Makati and I had to down climb the entire building which made in total 438m . Knowing that it was in March 2024 and that im already 61 years old . However im conceiving my life only climbing freesolo and although I don’t need it anymore on a daily basis like back in my best days I still do need to feel that thrill few times a year and I keep on training my body on purpose and staying fit . #climbing #freesolo #challenge #mindset #resilience #masteringfear #adventure #climbinginspiration
inspiring people became over the years something very intresting for me and very meaningful as it is no longer about climbing freesolo but it is about some universal values such as resilience, overcoming obstacles or fear for mastering it and it applies in pretty much anything all along our lives . #climbing #freesolo #challenge #mindset #masteringfear #overcomingobstacles #climbinginspiration #reslience
Shortly before making my way down to the 218m of the Gt tower in Makati that I had just climbed up I took a little rest before starting my long long descent. #climbing #freesolo #reslience #challenge #adventure #adrenaline #mindset #climbinginspiration
Not everyone will understand me and I can agree on that as it doesn’t really make sense freesoloing a 250 m cliff and stopping along the way for combing your hairs. There is no logics but I’m tempted to ask you what is the logics and why you are believing in it and based on what as I can assure you that im not a suicidal person and I have been climbing freesolo for 50 over years. #climbing #freesolo #mindset #challenge #resilient #adventure #escalada #climbinginspiration
Tks to @alexhonnold for his testimony. An extract of ” le retour de la legende ” shot in Verdon by @sambie_photography for @ridingzone . #climbing #freesolo #mindset #reslience #challenge #adventure #climbinginspiration #rockclimbing
At 61 years old climbing freesolo the Totalenergies building with such strong wind wasn’t as simple as I thought it would be . However mastering fear combined with a strong survival instinct but also a body still fit as physically trained has helped me to make the difference. #climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #adrenaline #resilience #masteringfear #climbinginspiration
Climbing the Torch tower in Doha was never going to be easy as on the top of being difficult it is also dangerous . An ascent that was organized officially in Qatar and validated by the ruler . The occasion to receive a new guinessworldofrecords certificate as a crew was filming the ascent but with many other medias such as discovery Channel, al Jazeera, BBC, redbull, ARD Germany and some local ones . #climbing #freesolo #challenge #mindset #masteringfear #climbinginspiration #adventure #adrenaline
It’s intresting getting @alexhonnold point of view on buildings. Although this particular one name Totalenergies isn’t really complicated but as a matter of fact I’m also 61 years old . However some buildings such as Framatome or the Sears tower and even the holiday Inn garden Court in Johannesburg would be within the range of 8a so freesoloing it is rather extreme even at today although on my side it is some buildings that I have climbed freesolo more than a quarter century ago . #climbing #freesolo #mindset #challenge #pushingthelimit #masteringfear #climbinginspiration #escalade
Ironically in 1982 I had a very bad accident that left me 66% disabled and condemned to never climb again. However 9 years later I was signing the 1st 5.13d freesolo in the human history. #climbing #freesolo #mindset #reslience #resilient #climbinginspiration #strength #pullups

I have always been trying to take my life with a big sense of humor although I have never stopped to train hard and being as mentally strong as I could as very early in my life I have had to become very resilient and all the more after my terrible fall in 1982 that left me 66% disabled. However 9 years Later freesoloing the 1st 5.13d in the climbing history. #climbing #freesolo #reslience #resilient #challenge #adventure #climbinginspiration

Things are not as easy as it should be but my only option now is reaching the nearly too safely and down climbing the entire building . quite a big job when things are not only depending on you but also the willingness of tge structure not to collapse under you’d weight . overall climbing freesolo the Gt tower in Makati is a stressful exercise and all the more at 61 years old . #climbing #freesolo #challenge #adventure #mindset #masteringfear #climbinginspiration #escalade
