Yep. I think he wanted to break that record more than anyone in the world. That's why he succeeded. Made me wonder…what do I want to do more than anyone else in the world? Like you said – great video.

Great achievement! Someone once told me ‘nobody ever climbed Mountain Everest because they like climbing…they did it because they loved climbing’. In order to achieve, you need to love what you are doing!
