Brilliant! Magnificent storytelling with captivating visual stimuli that is both breathtaking and refreshing as the backdrop to one of the sickest feats I'll ever see in my lifetime. I definitely welled up when Alex cleaned and loved that he could be mic'd up so we could hear him breathe during his ascent. This documentary had all the elements to suck me in and leave me agonizing on the edge of my seat as I awaited the (known) outcome. Alex is one-of-a-kind and we are all lucky a.f. to have the privilege of sharing his experience as he actualizes his career-long dream. Add in the "L" story and contributions by other pro-climbers and you've got a pretty dynamic story that stands on its own.
