Darwin award in progress.
People on lemmy are becoming judgemental like on reddit. This is probably safer than riding a motorbike on a public road, remember there aren’t many rock climbing accidents and the gear is really safe when used properly. Darwin award would be justified MAYBE if they were doing something wrong, or had forgotten a piece of gear at home. Wtf…

Um, you’re not really selling this. That’s a pretty low bar.

Beside the point. I don’t know where this is in the world, but there must have been options for more sensible places to stay the night. If there aren’t, then it’s a poor choice of climbing route. I’m critical of the decision making that put them overnighting here, not the sport of rock-climbing in general.

They had everything they needed to sleep there. One would think they planned to sleep there…

Mate I’m quite risk averse but come on, you ever leave your house or too dangerous?
