Lots of people offering congrats, but will anyone apologize for mocking the big man's pull up regime?  :whistle:

Awesome effort Stevie, you're an inspiration to me...

conversely what is if turned out that he'd have done it years ago if he hadn't wasted all that valuable training time doing thousands of pullups?

i'll echo the sentiments of "good effort".

Awesome.

This one will go down in climbing folklore with Eric Jones soloing the Nordwand and Whillans 'we beat you at your national game - twice'. Oh yeah sorry, I forgot Stevie soloed the Walker Spur in winter years ago too.

Talks the talk, walks the walk. Imagine fighting the fucker.
