Netflix's Skyscraper Live, featuring Alex Honnold's solo ascent of Taipei 101, has been postponed due to rain and will now air on Jan. 24 at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT, with safety prioritized and the possibility of further delays if weather persists.
Netflix postponed Alex Honnold’s Skyscraper Live ascent up Taipei 101 due to rain and wind making the 1,667-foot climb too slick, rescheduling the event for Saturday, January 24 at 8 p.m. ET / 5 p.m. PT with a 10-second live delay for safety. Netflix stressed that the decision was for Honnold’s safety, and noted that the challenge is the overall endurance on a wet surface, not a single move.
Netflix will air a live, rope‑free ascent of Taipei 101 by Alex Honnold as Skyscraper Live, backed by extensive safety planning, weather contingencies, and a 10‑second delay to cut away if needed; production relies on multiple cameras, drones, and a helicopter, with the option to delay to another day and a plan to air a shorter highlights version for non‑live viewers.
