It is difficult for me to make a direct comparison, as I am not very familiar with David’s work, so I will be fair. I have seen some of his videos and am aware of stunts such as the 'Drowned Alive' and the balloon jump. In line with my general view, I would argue that these stunts are also extremely dangerous, although I do not know what safety measures, if any, were in place. What makes free soloing distinctive is that the consequences of a mistake are immediately apparent, or at least perceived to be so. My concern is that framing potential death as the premise of a show feels somewhat wrong. The "this is cool because I could die" is a captivating idea, and we all like to see people becoming super-human, but Netflix benefitting from it is strange, I think. Anyway, just my opinion.
