In the outdoor enthusiast community, a "large rock wall" refers to steep rock formations over 400 meters in altitude, often requiring multiple days of climbing. Climbers sleep and eat in portaledges—a type of hanging tent—during their ascent.

Whether filming rock climbers or mountaineers, Wang's role as a photographer requires him to constantly stay close to the climbers, often experiencing the physical challenges alongside them.

Despite the apparent danger, Wang does not view his work as overly risky. "I won't attempt something unless I have the necessary skills. I conduct a thorough evaluation before any project and only proceed if it's within my capabilities, or if it requires a bit of extra effort to accomplish. I consider myself a cautious person," he explained.

In his spare time, Wang maintains his physical fitness through running three to four days a week, alongside strength training. He also keeps his climbing skills sharp by practicing on the rocks in Qingdao city, where he currently resides. This consistent physical training enables him to keep up with the demanding nature of his work.

Wang has accompanied climbers to the summit of Mount Qomolangma, known as Mount Everest in the West, twice. The first was in 2019, when he was invited by six mountaineers to document their climb. The second time was in 2021, when he filmed the documentary Invisible Summit.

The film chronicles the story of Zhang Hong, a Chinese blind mountaineer who became the first blind person in Asia—and the third in the world—to summit Mount Qomolangma via the southern slope. The documentary captures the decision-making process, preparations, training, teamwork with guides, and the ultimate summit ascent. The documentary has been nominated for Best Documentary at the China Golden Rooster & Hundred Flowers Film Festival this year.

During this climb, Wang's oxygen carrier malfunctioned for 40 minutes, putting him in a dangerous situation. He lost consciousness but regained it once the equipment was repaired. Additionally, during the final stages of the climb, Wang had to retreat at 8,700 meters, just over 100 meters from the summit, as the remaining oxygen supply could only support the blind climbers. With no oxygen left for himself, Wang had no choice but to turn back.
