All pretty funny in hind sight .
15+ years ago I was scarping around for climbing partners. We went to the county and I was 3/4 up Interstate 31. I looked down at my belayer and decided that she was not paying enough attention. So I jumped off! I must have been an idiot - this was in the days before I owned 3 racks and carry it all up a climb. So I fell and fell (bit of rope stretch contributed to a massive winger) Ended up with a badly sprained ankle. Now as you know you can climb thro most everything with enough painkillers so continued to climb. It was only next day and weeks when I could not walk that I realised how bad the ankle was. And yes she did catch me - was I hoping she wouldn't so as I lay dieing I could say "I told you to keep an eye on me" What an idiot.
