Some nasty accidents are on youtube where they get pinged off by the shaking and are thrown about mid air chainsaw whirling around with them! I haven't seen those, and I'm not looking, the way the trees wobble around is enough, makes your bum clench. 8 hours ago, samboy said: Also just been watching free solo climbing up rock faces with no safety ropes. Sheer lunacy. It showed you a few who have been killed. Base jumping is another one. Still each to their own. The channel 4 documentary a while back was something else, with the fella saying about all the friends who had died, I love climbing stuff but free climbing the stuff these guys do is something else, we were watching thinking would they show the program if something went wrong?? 5 hours ago, johnphilip said: Title says Fred , having a smoke break Wow.

redial Posted November 3, 2021 Report Share Posted November 3, 2021 The amazing one for me is when Fred has to tie and then climb ladders that go over a collar if that's the right word on a chimney. He appears to be leaning back as he does so. Great guy, I believe a couple of jars at lunchtime, if a pub was around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
