Alex Honnold, to put it mildly, has accomplished feats that some people wouldn’t dare attempt. The veteran rock climber has scaled some of the most massive natural and man-made structures in existence.

For his latest climb, which was chronicled in Netflix’s Skyscraper Live, Honnold did a free solo ascent up the Taipei 10. The structure stands at 1,667 feet, making it one of the largest buildings in the world.
