First off, American climber and all-round dare devil Dean Potter has been at it again, this time highlining across the Enshi Grand canyon in China without any sort of net or safety line. He's also, if you look, wearing a pair of headphones...

... but what's going on inside his head when he's doing that?


Well, here's Potter talking to Prana's 'Mindfullness Ambassador - really, how brilliant is that? - about what's going on between his ears when he's soloing and highlinging - 'focus or die'  he says. Really worth a look and as a bonus, some amazing footage of Potter in action.
