There are so many times when I'm at the crag and someone will have like slack all the way to the ground as their climber climbs and a look of boredom on their face. It's hard for me to go up to those people and let them know their climber is for sure decking if they fall. I feel like inattentiveness and not caring about consequences is considered cool by a lot of people in the climbing community.
The mountain bike is good analogy. I also tell ppl how road racing it stupid dangerous, sometimes There's 6 crits that day with a crash in each one lol
Great podcast glad I stumbled on it
Wear a helmet and always check your partner ties in to the harness properly.
I try to keep up with the Sharp End podcast. Although I don't always agree with the post mortems. Like the guy who pulled three pieces on a trad lead - the lesson should have been not to fall on gear. Sometimes you have to downclimb to a rest because trad placements are not as reliable as they may look. There was another episode with two gumby hikers, one got impatient and left the other behind, who fell and cut his leg and thought he was going to bleed out. Some of the people really need to be told they're stupid, but the host Ashley is too polite to do that. Still, its gripping because they are real stories, and always a reminder of how suddenly things can go wrong.
