Not only is he not the first, he's a limping snail compared to Dan Osman

Edit: I stand corrected. He is, indeed, faster than Dan

The video you linked is of Dan Osman speed scaling Lovers Leap which is NOT the full ascent of El Capitan.

Alex repeated the feat and beat Dan's time by about 10 seconds:

The video I linked is of Alex scaling the entirety (3000 feet) of El Capitan, a face which could never be speed scaled.

When i think complete bad ass, I think Alex Honnold. Everything he does is ridiculously epic. Can't wait for the documentary. Anyone know when it's suppose to come out?
*promote this sick feat.

Ahhh. Ok, my mistake. Sorry.
The Osman video was listed as El Capitan, not just partial. This video is so short, I didn't notice the difference.

Impressive, I didn't think anyone would ever beat Dan's time. That is some ballsy climbing.

Never say never. It would be one hell of a workout to climb that far, at speed, in one shot....then again, meth is a hell of a drug, so don't rule it out completely. ;-)

I love that he did it in tribute to Dan (Lovers Leap), very cool all around
