Comparative Risk

My wife and I saw this when it was originally shown on
60 Minutes
back in October. I remember my palms sweating (honestly) while watching this guy climbing.
No hooks, ropes, cleats, spikes,
nada
! Brings to mind the fact that perception of risk is often very subjective.

These people have taught me more about riding than any day spent on a track: Larry B, Tony K, Vince J, Mr. Wonderful, V2Neal, Marty F, Kevin B, Devon W, Ehrich, Mike A, John L, Arnell, Kirk, Ray C
Track days are like climbing the rock wall at REI.
Perhaps I need to stop taking the high road.

Yep, freestyle climbers are in the top 99.99 percentile of crazy. Course this guy probably thinks the same about riding a motorcycle during rush hour.

What the heck. I'll go off-topic in my own thread .....
I thought I had seen just about every Beatles photograph, but then I came upon this one on Facebook. Cool.

It's Pete Best's mum, and she's still bitter about it.
