Szy's tale of Dad almost dropping him to his death while reaching for his beer reminded me of one:

 

"Remember, your belayer is drunk. Hehehaa. snort. burble."

From the top looking down:

 

"I think those snow fields connect."

 

 

From Russian partner:

 

"We will complete this climb."

 

 

To cab driver in Saudi Arabia:

 

"Can you get me to the airport in 2 hrs?"

 

Cab driver looks grim but nods yes, get in car and realize we are going in wrong direction, arrive small hut and cabbie gets out and hugs several women and children then we start for airport; realize he was saying goodbye to family in case never see them again

While getting geared up for Outer Space, from way above, in a cracking, terrified voice-

 

TAAaaaake, for the love-a-GOD TAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!!!!

 

This was a few minutes before I said- Did you just piss right there on that tree?

 

Yeah, why not?

 

Couple minutes later the goat shows up and drives us off the ledge.

 

THATS WHY, You friggin' idgit!!

It's spelled:

"Boy, this snow is really hard. Maybe we shouldn't keep going without crampons or an axe. Oh, hell, let's go for it."

"There's a trick to opening these Concord windows..." "Oops"

 

"Oh, shit" -Jim Madsen, no?

 

"Trauma is when it happens to me. 'No big deal is when it happens to you. That roof is 'no big deal'."

pilot: "Yeh, I probably have enough fuel"

[A7U]

pilot: "No worries, I bust the MEA on this approach all the time"

 

"Sure the clouds at minimums, but we can get out of here in time"

 

"It's the controller's JOB to keep the airliners separated from us"
