At the end of last week, rock climber Alex Honnold appeared on the Jimmy Kimmel show here in the U.S., giving a large, mainstream audience an introduction to a man that many of us have been following for years. In the interview, Honnold talks about his recent free solo up El Capitan in Yosemite of course, but also how he got started in climbing in the first place, what his mom thinks about his exploits, and much more. Definitely worth a watch if you haven’t seen it, as its nice to see Alex in a relaxed environment like this one.
