Swiss alpinist, Dani Arnold, climbed the North face solo in 2h hours 28 minutes and with this clearly beat the existing record from Ueli Steck.

I wonder how much of a difference it made that he did use the 2 fixed lines (2x 30m) and Ueli did not. Regardless, very impressive feat from both.

Dan did not free climb the Hinterstoisser traverse as Ueli did.
