I'm stoked for Free Solo. Jimmy Chin has become an amazing filmmaker. Honnold is the greatest solo climber of all time. Should be a great combination. I too want to see in on the big screen for the scale of it. It's really hard for people to fathom the scale of mountains unless you spend time on them, and hopefully Chin's cinematography and the big screen will help convey it. I think with Meru he did a great job on showing how difficult and dangerous the climbing was, something that often gets lost.
Its odd how our brains react to height. A fall of 30M is usually fatal, but my brain reacts very differently to 30M of air vs over 1500M. On Mt Hector I was at one point where I had close to 1700M of space between my boot soles and the next stop down, and my brain nearly shut down. It's just more air time until you die.
