            This guy is now dead I believe. Oddly enough he didn't die falling off the rock though he died bungie-jumping or sky-diving or something. He was on a show called Maximum Exposure in the states and they had clips of him climbing stuff and almost falling off. Pretty cool but like you said, "fear-illiterate":) ------------------------------------- Do not do what has already been done.

                      I was watching that thinking "it's all pretty juggy, so it's not like he's doing anything technically challenging" then I saw the dyna at about 200 feet and that's when my palms really started sweating. Wicked. cheers, Chris Maunder

                                        There are ads for porn sites there (soft/hard porn doesn't matter, still porn either way) and some organisations would consider them inappropriate... hence some non-work-safe ads there. Still... damn cool video. Human spiderman is what came to mind there too. Regards, Brian Dela :-) Blog^ Co-author of The Outlook Answer Book... Go on, order^ it today!
