Wow! And I missed it! Damn.

There’s an article about him in last week’s New Yorker. He’s a bit short for my tastes, but has awesome muscles! Oh, and then he’s French. Never mind.

Until someone falls off trying to do it too fast. Then there won’t be any more attempts. It has a certain inevitability about it.

The point is to climb faster than 45minutes. 45minutes is the record.
