Rock climbers unleash a massive boulder

arvana says...

Actually girls make far better natural climbers than guys, because guys tend to try to power their way up with arm strength. That exhausts the muscles quickly, whereas women are better at keeping their weight on their feet, which is much better climbing technique.

Rock Climber describes hacking off his own arm

poolcleaner says...

>> ^syncron:
Eww, that's disgusting. Even more disturbing is why he would continue his hobby. If we ever have another story on him in climbing accident, it most certainly deserves an EIA tag. And wait, this is Engineering how??


He used torque? haha

If someone wants to remove it, that's fine. I tend to liberally apply labels.

Climbing + Fucking = Clucking

Brutal rock climbing fall, Dan Osmon

11859 says...

that wasnt intetional, thats a classic "zipper effect"
the problem is when you take a fall you run the risk of zippering, the tension the rope puts on the protection devices makes them pull in ways the climber did not expect and thus causes them to pull from the rock, once one pulls, it creates that much more impact on the device below making it fail..the effect duplicates until it either stops pulling protections..or you hit the ground.
Osman was VVERY lucky a device finally caught him. If you watch the video you can see in the rope the many little devices in the rope as they get pulled from the rock, they look like little danglingly thing on the rope...those are the cams he put it as they pull ouut of the rock.... he was crapping himself for sure.
Ive never had this happen thank god...id probably scream like a little girl all the way down.

Tribute to a great American athelete: Michael Larrabee

schmawy says...

That is awesomely inspiring. I like the way he looks at 2:38. If he told me to go to bed I'd have my jammies on in a flash. And a climber? Some spirit. The emperor apparently could see it too. That's some beautiful family history.

Triumph interviews republican congressmen on global warming

bigbikeman says...

Charliem: The fact that congressmen (of any standard of evaluation) are below average when displaying their ability to acknowledge reality says something.

I'd like to think that the members of congress representing the most powerful nation of the world are slightly more intelligent than your average corporate ladder climber who's only reason for even being in the room is that they repeat the party line purely by using their autonomic nervous system rather than letting it pass through their cerebral cortex first. "Well, as republicans, we think....blahblahblah"

So I guess what I'm saying is this: these droids/morons are your leaders. Show some fucking respect.

Man Law

rembar says...

For those of you who don't recognize him, the guy with the amputated forearm is Aron Ralston, a mountain climber who cut off his own arm with a multitool in order to escape when it was pinned under a boulder in the wilderness. Hm. Maybe we could get a list of all the people who appear in these commercials going?

God definitely loves this cliff jumping ski freak!

kulpims says...

man, whenever i see someone jumping down snowy slope i remember the avalanche that took with him 7 of my friends a month ago on a not so demanding 2000m high mountain some 10 km from where i live. they were on a training hike for alpine climbing course they attended. there were 15 people in the group and 2 of them were very experienced free climbers and mountaineers. this incident happend on 15th of december 2007. here's an article on one of our cable news channels. there are also some video clips of the rescue when they were piloted off the mountain down to where ambulances took them further to a hospital (just a block from where i live). one of the climbers was a co-woker of mine. he's into free climbing but has little less experience alpine climbing so he attented this course for some months before this happened. he got off well, just bruised and in shock. the avalanche started just 100m before they reached the peak. as it happened nobody expected any of that cause there was only 10-20cm of snow on ground. but it was snowing all night before and it was very windy. that caused the unstable, fresh powder to accumulate on top and they somehow tripped this huge patch of snow that drove them down a very steep slope through a gorge that ended some 300m downhill. there were also 6 other friends of mine, most with minor injuries, two girls had more severe injuries. i met one of them just last night, she got out of hospital few days earlier. she's got broken leg and she needed some surgery on her jaw. she was joking that she will always trip the airport alarms now that she's got 6 titanium plates in her jaw nice to see her smiling and so optimistic after something so shocking. she will still need few months of recovery before she's ok but all of them said that they feel really lucky and kinda reborn after that meet with matilda
