Jared Leto has said he “nearly died” after he took a fall while rock climbing. The Oscar-winning actor and Thirty Seconds To Mars singer said he was with Free Solo star Alex Honnold in southern Nevada when his rope started to fray.

Writing on Instagram, he said: “Not to sound dramatic, but this is the day I nearly died. “Took a pretty good fall climbing with @alexhonnold at Red Rock. “Looked up and within seconds the rope was being cut by the rock while I dangled some 600ft in the air. “I remember looking down at the ground below.

It was a strange moment – less fear, more matter of fact, and slightly melancholy. “The adrenaline came after, when I got back on the wall.
