catbirdseat Posted August 20, 2011 Share Posted August 20, 2011 I thought this movie was quite amusing and although not a climbing movie, belongs right up there with Vertical Limit for quality or lack thereof. There was a scene in which they had just been trapped in a cavern by a rockslide. The slide was caused by lightning of all things. There were several choices of ways to go. They pick one a random. Coming to a seemingly bottomless pit, one would consider backtracking and trying some of the other routes, but no, they decide they need to DECEND into said bottomless pit. It just so happens that the heroine has a rope in her pack long enough for the 200ft descent. She starts lowering the man and soon the boy is being lowered at the same time. Is she lowering both at the same time? Now she is rappelling between them. Who is lowering the two others? Where did she get four 200 foot ropes? Nevermind.

sobo Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 The real question is, "Does she have any nitroglycerin?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choada_Boy Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 You should watch "The Descent". Epically wretched climbing sequences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
