[00:00:15] Speaker 2: The biggest obstacle is probably going to be the wind up at the higher levels.

[00:00:21] Speaker 3: I think the biggest obstacle for me is going to be this.

[00:00:25] Speaker 1: Kenan Thompson plays a fictional second climber hilariously unprepared for one of the world's tallest buildings. Contrasting a cool, confident Mikey Day playing the world-famous rock climber.

[00:00:35] Speaker 2: If you fall, you're going to die.

[00:00:40] Speaker 1: Honnold has been climbing for most of his life. He's best known for free soloing El Capitan at Yosemite National Park in 2017. A sheer granite wall 3,000 feet tall.
