Free climbing is an activity for crazy people and this guy seems like an example of that.
I used to climb outside a LOT. Among the crew I climbed with, this kind of stupidity was regarded with mild awe and lots of hope that a fully-developed pre-frontal will help this man overcome his need for attention- and thrill-seeking; the parkour reflection.
Heat least used ropes. Free soloing is the one without ropes, and indeed, insane. I agree with the other comment though, what an absolute dickwad for abandoning his family to "find god"
