 Solution

For $a>0$, the Brownian reflection principle at the first-passage time of $a$ gives the Brownian running maximum identitywhere $\Phi$ is the distribution function of the standard normal distribution. Indeed, reflection pairs paths that have reached $a$ and end below $a$ with paths ending above $a$; $B_t$ has no atom at $a$.

As $t\to \infty$, this probability tends to one. The events $\{S_n\ge a\}$ increase with integer $n$, so with probability one the path reaches $a$ in finite time. Taking a countable intersection over positive integer $a$ givesHere $S_{\infty }={\sup }_{s\ge 0}{B}_s$. This also proves that every positive-level Brownian first-passage time is finite almost surely.
