The world’s tallest climbing wall isn’t exactly purpose-built for rock climbing. Artificial holds attached to the Emosson Dam in Switzerland create a 165-meter, six-pitch route.

Climber and BASE jumper Tim Howell gives the route a free solo with a parachute. Too pumped to finish, he makes a cool jump at the end.
