Plus the problem of your shoe slipping on the rock, or on a bit of gravel, or overbalancing, and you're straight off cyanide point.

At least your last moment would be fast.

At least you'd have a great view before you died.

I went there with two friends and the one friend's dad. The father was REALLY freaking out when I did that. I just figured that that rock has been there for thousands of years so what were the odds that TODAY it would fall?Tsukiyumi wrote:Aw, come on. Barring a large wind gust, rock slide or some dirt in your eye at an inopportune moment, what could go wrong?

It's not the fall that kills you... it's the sudden stop at the end!Teaos wrote:At least your last moment would be fast.

Odds are slim, for sure. I did something similar on a wall at the Grand Canyon when I went; it nearly gave my mom a heart attack.
And yeah, on the way down you would have an awesome view. And save money on the helicopter tour.

More like a bunch of small baggies.

I was thinking more along the lines of being mopped up with a squeegee from that height...
Breathtaking pics, btw!

I never said what size box you'd come back in...
Anyways, in keeping with the thread, here's me, march of this year...
Lord, that picture is huge. In the background is my favorite current TV show.

And, not like I'm competing with Thorin, or anything.
Here's me and my best friend way back in the olden times of 2006, when I couldn't figure out what to do with my hair... before I just shaved it again.

Very nice. Has anyone ever told you that (in the second pic at least) you look just like Warren Zevon?
Posted: Thu Oct 18, 2007 8:11 pm
No, but that's funny, since I am a musician/songwriter.
