    This is so sad but also the exact reason I think free climbing is incredibly dumb. Everything is at risk when you do it. Falling like that is one of my worst fears

      I figure it depends on the circumstances.

      If you’re the breadwinner and provide for a family, ya it’s not a great idea.

      If you have no dependents, it’s a more exhilarating life experience and all the power to ya.
