Too much fun to be safe...

Well, climbing ropes are MEANT to take falls and they are elastic... so he might of been able to do it with long ropes alone... but that might have cost £££ per jump, because they are only certified for a certain amount of falls...

Best name for a climbing knot. Double munter friction hitch... I kid ye not.

I climb fairly regularly and heights/exposure don't bother me that much, but soloing to that height and speed is just :eek: :eek: One tiny tiny mistake i.e. sweaty hands on a hold that has some grass or sand on it and he would be royally screwed.

Yeah, it all seems to be upper body on that solo climb - he doesnt seem to take many footholds.

Was discussing that video with a friend - I think you need a serious wish for risk to take climbing to that level.
