He did it without gloves.  My palms were sweating watching the video!  I also 
noticed he climbed by grabbing the outside of the rope ladders, not the rungs.  
That's how you don't get your fingers stepped on if you're climbing with

What a view. It appears that he free climbed the entire mast without
stopping for a rest ... amazing.
