    I am genuinely curious how many people in this thread have ever been in a harness somewhere that equipment failure means death. I’m getting a strong Couch Climber vibe in here.

      Really? I actually think real climbers are the ones least impressed by this and that mostly non-climbers watched and were entertained. Climbers know it’s just a stunt with 0 sport value. All the friends I asked about it said it’s pretty embarrassing and didn’t watch it.
