Oh, look at that...dead people!


Good one! laugh

Fact is, rock climbing is just like any other endeavor where the potential for death is there if you do something stupid.

Don't be stupid, understand basic physics(gravity never lies) ,use good judgement and it ain't all that bad. In reality it can be quite enlightening, just avoid the sudden stop at the end of the ride.

The photographer appears to be pretty safe, from what I can see. He looks to be on the main line and a belay. But I would worry about the guy below the ladder, that thing comes undone and swings he is toast!

I thought this was pretty extreme. But not compared to that photo.

I climbed The Nose on El Capitan in 1966. It took two days. But even on that climb we didn't use a hanging platform. We managed to bivvy on a ledge.
