    I mean it’s clearly a mental illness. He could be using safety gear. He’s climbing like this for a rush.

      Participating in extreme sports is a mental illness? Pushing ones limits is not a mental illness. He knows the risks and enjoys it. This is what he’s trained for his entire life. It’s no different than a Travis Rice being heli dropped off on top of a mountain in Alaska and snowboarding down. Or a Redbull athlete jumping between planes in a wing suit. Different strokes for different folks. Not a mental illness.
