Possibly.

I did hear a lot.

Huberman Lab

Or ideally stop them.

Yosemite, I mean, is a crown jewel.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

I mean, I think it's the best national park in the country.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

Yeah, I'm not sure.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

I'm not sure what the hidden dangers are.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

I would say, though, that the obvious visual dangers, like for a non-climber just watching free soloing, I think they generally misperceive all the dangers and risks involved.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

You know, they just see it and they're like, that's crazy.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

That's whatever, you know, and like whatever they're bringing to it is probably not the actual case.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

Just because it's hard to visually tell what's challenging in climbing.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

You know, you're like, that's a vertical wall.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

But if it's like a nice crack going over a vertical wall, that's actually quite easy and secure climbing.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

But then some of the other stuff, you know, if they're really small holds, you're trusting your feet.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

I don't know.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

I mean, it's just really hard to judge that stuff visually.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

Like, you have to do it to experience it.

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

But I think that...

Huberman Lab
How to Set & Achieve Massive Goals | Alex Honnold

that honestly the whole perception of risk around free-soling is maybe slightly misperceived by people.

Huberman Lab

So with climbing in general, like if you go climbing with a rope, like if you're traditional climbing, like you're climbing with a rope and gear and you're going to climb half-dome, let's say, when you start climbing from the ground, you go some distance before you put your first piece of gear in because that's just kind of the nature of climbing.
