the school is trying to cover the shit up but one of my buddies fell off the top of the climbing wall over 30 feet to flat. he broke his shins and his back. when he landed his legs went side ways. a girl tried to catch him and broke her arm. it was the result of a faulty clip and a bad knot.

That is too bad. You never want those kind of things to happen. I would be interested in finding out exactly what happened - whether it was a faulty product or mistake in using the gear incorrectly. I saw that wall when they were building the facility. It is an awsome wall.

Hey, does the outdoor bouldering wall have holds on it yet? I went over there a little while back and there were only a few holds on it at the top.
Who made the mistake? The climber, or the staff?
