Last August, climber Hansjörg Auer undertook an impressive expedition to make three big walls climbs, and two paraglider flights on the same day in the Alps, all without using ropes. He free soloed the walls, sailed from the top of the mountains, and continued climbing throughout the day. His adventure is depicted in the video below, which takes us along for the daring climbs and flights. That’s an awful lot to accomplish in one day.
