JBo6 Posted October 1, 2007 Share Posted October 1, 2007 As far as taking big falls, and the effect on a rope when there is some type of edge for the rope to rub on. This is off the Elwha Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBo6 Posted October 1, 2007 Author Share Posted October 1, 2007 No, he's from the same town as my roommate, and I guess he survived, hopefully something else will get him soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

high_on_rock Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 I got into climbing years ago to get over my fear of heights, and it made a huge difference in my life. I now watch some kid with huge knuts jump off a bridge, and I get the same queasy stomach that I used to get watching climbers. Makes me think that I need to knut up and jump off a bridge. Â I an envious of the crazy little dude in the video, and may make that (with a few more safety backups) a goal. Are you with me Billcoe?
