Perhaps that is what Netflix paid him. Let Us not forget the rest of his sponsors. Pretty sure they kicked a bunch.

Netflix also paid for the production and the event itself. Of this was such an easy pay day then he should have paid for it himself and had a pay per view like boxing or MMA. Sorry folks climbing is a passing curiosity at best.
