rappelling

2016/7/22 8:48:44

Question
I was wondering how safe it was to descend looking downward while rappelling. I've heard of it through friends and it doesn't sound safe

Answer
Dear Jaime----the army does it so they can shoot first.....but if you are not in the army.........it's nothing more than a stunt........and a dangerous one.

For more on climbing safety, please see my book, "Ultrasafe-A Guide to Safer Rockclimbing."

Good Luck--------George Allen
