There is a defence of "an obviously dangerous activity". A recent case in NSW concerned a man who was taking flying lessons. During a lesson the aircraft's engine was intermittently misfiring and the instructor made a couple of questionable decisions to continue flying and delay returning to the airfield. The engine failed and the student was badly injured in the resulting forced landing. His attempt to sue the instructor in court failed, the judgment being that he was participiting in an activity with obvious risks. That decision would appear to me to have direct application to rock climbing.
