NETFLIX CROSSES A DANGEROUS LINE: Streaming giant PAYS to broadcast a man’s POTENTIAL DEATH for your entertainment. In a sick new low for reality TV, Alex Honnold—the climber from “Free Solo”—will attempt to scale the 1,667-foot Taipei 101 skyscraper LIVE with NO ROPES. This isn’t programming; it’s a corporate-sanctioned SNUFF FILM disguised as sport. Insiders whisper that executives are BLOODTHIRSTY, desperate for the “shock value” of a live catastrophe to boost subscriber numbers after a series of flops. “Viewers will be on edge,” Honnold naively says. He doesn’t grasp he’s just CONTENT, a disposable daredevil in Netflix’s gladiatorial arena.
The horrific truth? This spectacle NORMALIZES mortal risk for clicks. By framing this stunt as “joy” and “beauty,” Netflix and Honnold are PARTNERS IN CRIME, making a deadly act palatable for your living room. They’ve assembled a panel of “analysts” to narrate what could be a LIVE SUICIDE. Where are the ethicists? The mental health experts? This broadcast isn’t about human achievement—it’s a chilling experiment to see how far an audience will go, how much bloodsport they’ll tolerate before looking away. Honnold calls it a “rare opportunity.” It’s a DEAL WITH THE DEVIL, and Netflix is holding the camera, betting against his survival for profit.
Tune in Friday night and ask yourself: are you a viewer, or are you part of a digital mob waiting for a man to fall?
