What does sport climbing and free-soloing tall buildings have to do with eachother??

There are lots of climbers, whether sport or other, who don't free-solo at the crags, let alone buildings. Why should they?


I'm not sure what your point is...

T0: Poor grammar, didn't even spell subject's name right. Not even really sure what the question is at this point.

I'm a newb at rating Trolls, so I'm just throwing that out there to see what you guys think.

I'm a sport climber, and soloing is very far from my wishes. I agree to say that is a stupid question... 8)

I guess It's just like asking why we aren't doing like Dan Osman used to do, and that question answers itself.

May he rest in peace.

ps. climbing buildings is easy, try rock
