There’s literally an Oscar award winning documentary about Alex Honnold free climbing El Cap. It got more coverage than almost any extreme sport.

The movie makes a point to question his motivation and suggests there’s something different about his brain. It also shows how conflicted his girlfriend is about his choices.
