Jimmy Chin and Jim Morrison Rappel Down 12-Story Building in Hollywood

According to Deadline, ski mountaineers Jimmy Chin and Jim Morrison performed a daring stunt on Friday, October 30, 2026, to promote the National Geographic documentary 'Everest: The Other Side'. The pair ascended to the top of a 12-story building on the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood, California, and successfully rappelled down the side, which featured a massive advertisement for the film. The documentary, directed by Chin and Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, chronicles how Morrison overcame multiple tragedies to scale the north side of Mount Everest and ski down it—a feat never before accomplished. The film opened in 551 theaters, including IMAX screens, on Friday.
