Yep, then your rope has failed, you're going to fly 200 meters and hit another rock. Good work, my potato!

If I wasn't such a bitch about falling to my death I would probably try that, but not likely.

I've actually done something similar to that (except it was half as tall and man-made)

It is not fun.

I am so scared of heights.

How about adrenalin ? Did you feel it ? And how'd you get back on rock ?

No Adrenaline. Only fear.

It ended where I lost all my momentum and ended on the ground.

I have never been afraid of heights really so that seems so awesome to me... And adrenaline and fear is why you do those things imo.

Yep, it's looking awesome, because the area is beautyful. I can do that, with 3 ropes. >.<

They could have easily messed up, slipped, fell. Or the ropeswing rebound when they go down... into the rock wall.

Yeah, but it didn't and they had safety experts there (I watched behind the scenes so...)

Would've been really ironic if he had slipped but regained. his balance and then got a heart attack and died.
