Cool pics. I presume he was there, and not on the ground holding the remote for a drone. Either way is cool and amazing. Drones have really changed the industry. And the climbers are still amazing as well.

Pretty cool, Hov. Made me nervous to look at them, though.

As I am utterly ignorant of the art of rock climbing, "free climbing," El Capitan (it's in Yellowstone), and especially curious about why it is called "The Nose," I turned to the internet.

Apparently, this climb by Waterhouse and Ridal is only the twelfth successful attempt under the conditions of free climbing. Thus says Wikipedia....
