Alex Honnold became the world’s most famous alpinist when he climbed Yosemite’s granite wall without a rope. But how did Alex prepare to do the impossible? He and his friend Tommy Caldwell went to Morocco and pushed their limits on equally huge walls, culminating with Alex’s ropeless climb up the hardest route. This is Alex’s tireless, grinding process to transform a dream into reality.

Big mountain skier Angel Collinson boasts the most important achievements in the sport, from first place trophies to best lines ridden. Seeking to cross new limits, she says yes to riding some of the steepest spines in Alaska for a new film. But when she loses control of her skis in the middle of a high-speed descent, Angel starts falling down a 1000-ft slope—and only stops at the bottom.

Legendary climber Conrad Anker and his mentee David Lama want to be the first to summit Lunag Ri, the tallest unclimbed peak in the Himalayas.

He realizes he is having a heart attack in one of the most inhospitable places on Earth.

In 2016, elite snowboarder Travis Rice was riding in the backcountry of Alaska, film crew in tow, when the mountain snow spider webbed around him, catapulting Rice into an avalanche.

As he approaches the climax of his career, climber Will Gadd wants to do what many consider impossible: be the first to scale Helmcken Falls, a 430-ft frozen waterfall in Canada known as the world's hardest ice climb. But even with a lifetime of experience, Will fears for his safety as he climbs in subzero temperatures, dodges giant icicles and goes through a near-death experience.
