Alex Honnold’s Free Solo documentary is rolling into theaters now, but before you head out to see it on the big screen, check out this amazing clip which helps to put his climb truly into perspective. Captured using a 360º camera, we start by joining Alex out on the trail, then proceed to El Capitan to follow him up the rock race. The 360º technology allows us to look around, getting a sense of the landscape that he is traveling through, not to mention the stunning heights to which he is climbing. If you’re looking for new perspective –– literally –– on this impressive climb, this video will give it to you.
