Alain Robert | Legendary Free Solo Climber on Instagram: "Time is flying so fast but I don't have any regrets as I have been climbing freesolo for more than fifty years fulfilling my dreams although its my entire world that did collapse in 1982 after a very bad accident that left me 66% disabled and condemned by the doctors to never climb again. However 9 years later I have been freesoloing the 1st 5.13d in the climbing history. Out of willingness and out of faith . #climbing #freesolo #mindset

Alain Robert | Legendary Free Solo Climber on Instagram: "In 1998 and as I was climbing Framatome all of the sudden I got a big surprise as the single Crack did start to get too narrow and for almost 7 seconds I couldn't move upwards anymore, trying desperately to make it alive . However at no point i did lose my focus and I did fight as much as I could to overcome the crux of what became my hardest building.

However in 2023 I have decided to come back to my first love and the contrast as been striking in between climbing some very predictable buildings that are rather safe as the grips are always good which allows you to hook your fingers inside those rails and repeating the same move over and over again as

Alain Robert | Legendary Free Solo Climber on Instagram: "Framatome is a 180m tall building with only one single Crack that is rather small and not really deep on the top of being irregular in the inside which sometimes barely allow to jam the tip of your feet . Since there is no horizontal frame it's not possible to take any rest and this is what's make it so difficult. it is definitely a one way ticket. On my scale from 1 to 10 I put it 10 and if I had to use the same system as we are using on
