I wonder if those are really redpoint ascents? Headpointed.......? or simply toproped with a really long thin rope not visible to the naked eye. If he is Spiderman then he uses those sticky webs that come out of his hands!
Don't worry MADROCK will be comming out with those next year!
Warning this was just a joke email!

The exact same hold in the exact same position, the whole way up. You'd think he would get some crazy over-use injuries.

In reply to: I wonder how hard he sends outdoors?
According to the official website http://www.alainrobert.com Alain has soloed many routes in France and elsewhere. His hardest solos are up to 8b (5.13d) and he has onsited some 7a (5.11d) routes.
I looked but I couldn't find a list of redpoint efforts. Maybe someone else can provide that info.

I think his most recent published climb was for the grand opening of Taipei 101 on December 25, 2004. Taipei 101 is currently the worlds tallest building.
Articles: Cnn.com, Yahoo.com
Video: Reuters
For this climb he had to toprope because of bad weather :cry:
What gives, spidey?
