max Posted October 14, 2001 Posted October 14, 2001 I don't care if you're a girl or guy; if you were extra-heavy duty undies, you sound like my type! Quote
BIGONES Posted October 14, 2001 Author Posted October 14, 2001 Well, I can do you guys one better. (Better safe than sorry, that's what my mom always said!) After clipping BOTH my daisy chains to the anchors, AND tying in with the rope using an atomic figure eight, I then fix a prussik or klemheist knot to the rope below the tie-in point, attaching it with double locking carabiners to the center of my undergarment. (Tip: You need the super-heavy-duty Vic's Sec. full-figure model for this to work properly). This way, if the rope gets chopped, you are immediately strangulated and do not have to endure any free falls, broken bones, hours of agony hanging by a thread, etc. etc. I bet this gets into the next edition of Extreme Alpinism, for sure! PS Anybody who jumps to the conclusion that the author of this is a girl is just deluded by stereotypes and seriously politically incorrect. Quote
