Here is the newspaper article but I would dispute the 20 feet. His third piece, that may or may not have taken any force, was at least 25 feet or more up the wall and he pulled two pieces above that. Of course, this does not matter, what counts is that the article implies he is ok given the severity of his fall.

Just courious, why would you think the gear pulled? Incorrect placement or inadequate size pro?
ReplyDeleteI meant to say why do you think the gear pulled?
ReplyDeleteHard to say ... most likely just poorly placed gear which was exacerbated by a shallow or flared crack.
