Overview
- Netflix reported 6.2 million global streaming views using its hours-viewed divided by runtime metric within the Jan. 19–25 reporting period.
- A weather postponement shifted the special from Friday to Saturday, with viewing limited to the live broadcast and next-day on demand.
- The climb aired at 5 p.m. PT/8 p.m. ET and was presented as a rope-free ascent of Taipei 101 that set a record for the tallest urban free-solo climb.
- Viewership outpaced Netflix’s Katie Taylor–Amanda Serrano rematch (2.8 million) but remained far below the Terence Crawford–Saúl “Canelo” Álvarez telecast (over 17 million).
- Netflix said the figures are first-party data rather than third-party audited numbers, and it is deepening its live slate with a three-year MLB package starting this spring.
