He obviously wasn't on his own, someone had to hold the camera! So maybe someone also belayed while he went up the more dangerous sections?

Yes you would have thought that the Eiger does have a few dangerous sections...

Looks like he only roped a couple of pitches on the Eiger he was self belayed by his cow's tail leashes on his ice axes most of the time. Truly frightening that is steep stuff.
