My wife (bless her) found a dvd at (i think) an op shop. The back cover showed amongst other things some climbing type stuff so she proudly gave it to me. It was some weird late 80's spiritualised/indian/tourist um??? (can't quite categorise it). There was one great scene, climbing a desert tower ( At first i thought it was Lynn Hill) incredibly bold, run out, overhung. Then she mantles with a sketchy hook in place, 500 miles above the desert floor, piece blows, she whips. AND THE MONEY SHOT! The rope running over the edge (somehow it was still there after the gear had blown) as she takes a 5,000m fall (it went for a long time) WWuuurrrrVVVeeeeeeeerrruuup! (where do they get that sound effect from?. Gold.
